Great service and great brunch experience!
A delicious and comforting small plate dinner. It's what I'd eat at home if I had a chef in my house. Also, super tequila sour.

The Belmont in Ottawa offers delicious food and exquisite cocktails prepared by a masterful bartender. The staff is courteous, pleasant, well-informed, and fast. The family-style option with dessert is highly recommended, with refreshing octopus carpaccio and juicy piri piri chicken. The Trini Doubles, tartare, mushroom on toast, and patatas bravas were outstanding choices. The new menu is fantastic, and the food is always done to perfection and delicious. The chicken is a standout dish, and the beef tartare is well-prepared and full of flavor. The Classic Belmont is a perfect choice, with a friendly and casual ambiance. Visitors appreciated a busy Sunday meal featuring Turkish eggs served with home fries and a nice IPA, noting that despite the lively environment, the staff provided friendly service and seating without a reservation. The restaurant can fill up quickly, but walk-in seating at the bar is usually available, making it cozy and welcoming. The food was praised as fantastic, with dishes like steak frites that were tender and flavorful, and appetizers that impressed guests. Guests enjoyed the fun atmosphere watching people at the bar and found the service to be very good, attentive, and knowledgeable. The menu surprises with dishes like dabbals, cheese with asparagus, focaccia, and the special corn on the cob with cilantro sauce—highly recommended. The Belmont exceeds expectations and is recommended, especially for seafood options and shareable plates. Guests also appreciated the creativity and gastronomic experience, with large portions shared family style, and the beef tartare being incredible. Parking is conveniently available just down the hill on the same side, with friendly staff ready to assist. Overall, visitors have had great experiences enjoying delicious, well-presented food, a fun atmosphere, and excellent service.
