Really cool restaurant but ordered the 3 tier chef small plate dinner. All 3 of your selected dishes come at the same time so it was extremely overwhelming to try and eat it while it was still warm. We had 6 dishes between my husband and I. Three of them were mediocre at best. Not a fine dining experience. It was fancier arena food.

There are ample Park and Ride locations in Kanata/Ottawa where you can park for free and take public transportation at a minimal cost. The nice thing about public transportation out of and into the Canadian Tire Center is the city buses have a separate exit. While people are waiting to get out of the paid parking at the Arena you are already out of the area after taking the city bus a short 5 minute bus ride away to the terry fox transfer station at the Centrum shopping center after your event. If you haven’t parked there you can transfer to the area you parked or uber at a dramatically reduced cost. The city of Ottawa has many park and ride locations if you are coming to the arena for an event. Public transportation and pedestrians are given priority immediately after events so keep this in mind when choosing to park at the CTC. The arena staff are very helpful and friendly. 5stars. The area is generally very safe compared to other big events but remember to be aware of your surroundings. My only complaint is the lax enforcement of smoking or vaping during certain events. A hockey game wouldn’t have the venue in a cloud of smoke, nor would it be tolerated by fans, but certain concerts it is ignored. Keep this in mind when bringing children to concerts. The concessions are very expensive . The most cost effective concessions would be hot dogs, popcorn in a refillable cup, soda in a refillable cup. You can refill the popcorn and soda multiple times. Great to remember if you are going with kids to a family friendly event. Bring baggies. Sharing is caring.

Really enjoyed our meal here before the game. Tacos & fish were great and the steak was good. I would not recommend the chicken sliders as they were quite chewy and didn’t possess the same quality as the other dishes.

Waited forever to get a meal before the Sens game. People sat down after us and were getting their food. Very disappointed. Also the chicken wings were not fully cooked.

We had the Valentines Day meal before the Sens vs Flames game and had an issue with the meal that was quickly resolved by server and management. Very impressed thank you.

My wife and I ate there before the Sens game on a Saturday night. It was a nice place to eat and different from the usual pub food.I had a seafood pasta and she had short ribs. Both were excellent. All the staff were great.A little bit pricey but to be expected. If you want a good mean in a nice environment before an event, check it out.

$58.00 + taxes for buffet before Michael Buble concert Oct 14th in Ottawa, for the choice of an appetizer, the buffet was medium rare roast beef, the chafing stainless steel containers to keep food warm were left open so food was COLD, there was cauliflower , white rice, mushy french fries, small cutup potatoes with zuchinini, roasted chicken and sausage pasta. Our waiters had 2 tables total of 24 people and my friend and I. They offered us free dessert. We had gone to Mandarin Chinese Buffet and it was much tastier and 1/2 the price. TOTAL rip off. Informed the waiter and hostess.
49$ for a cold buffet. Waiter did not let us know before sitting down. Hugely disappointin

I went in before the Cher concert. We were told the doors to the CTC would open at 6:30 . We stood outside in the cold. They did not open until 7:00 leaving us half hour to eat. We ordered wine at the bar to which the waiter up sold a bottle of Villa Maria, 17.95 at LCBO for 76.00. Claiming cheaper to buy the bottle. .....as it usually is....not this time. We had time for a bowl of soup. We told him we were in a rush and could only get the soup. Our waiter’s attitude was so rude. I guess we didn’t order enough. His attitude was very insulting and when we paid him he took the money and ran making me wish I hadn’t tipped him at all. I complained to the woman manager with dark hair and she said oh sorry. I really didn’t feel the love at all.Suggestion for all.....eat off piste. This restaurant was disappointing.

We went before the Barack Obama event and reservations were for 5:00 pm so we wouldn’t be rushed. Our waiter did his best. The fault lies with management for understaffing the restaurant. Club Red is trying to be a fine dining restaurant and they are not even close, except in the prices. We waited 10 minutes for the waiter to arrive. The food was mediocre at best. One of the worst dining experiences ever for $300.00! At the end we had to wait another 10 minutes to find a machine to pay the bill. Golden Palace egg rolls in the concourse would have been better!
