Thanks for the great food, service and entertainment.
Dropped by last evening and was very impressed with our delicious glass of wine and tapas. Started a conversation with couple sitting beside us and they were finishing their second meal within the last month. We compared our great reviews of the food as well as the warm and friendly service. We’ll be back soon.
Was recently in Ottawa for a tournament and had heard about Caden's. the staff were friendly and knowledgeable and helpful when it came to ordering the food.
Highly recommend going here and if ever I'm back there I'll go again.

Cadena Restaurant & Tapas Bar is a lively spot for a fun night out, with live music that adds to the energy without overpowering conversation. The menu offers Spanish-inspired tapas, including batata bravas, calamari, surf & turf, mussels, assorted flavour empanadas, meatballs, and traditional paella. Portions are generous, and the meat and fish tapas include potatoes. The service is prompt, friendly, and attentive, and the simple, nice ambiance is paired with great drinks, including a standout margarita and red sangria. Guests enjoy desserts like churros and tiramisu, and the restaurant is accommodating and welcoming. While the selection of tapas may be smaller than some expect, visitors often find the food hot, flavorful, and absolutely delicious, making it a good choice for a memorable night out. Some dishes, like the Canejo (pan-fried rabbit) and Rabo de Toro (braised oxtail), are enjoyed despite occasional overcooking or portion size concerns, and the overall experience is worth trying for those seeking Spanish cuisine and a lively environment.
