We were so glad to find this place. The servers, the food and the ambiance was perfect.

We went here for the Valentine's Day dinner. It was good food, but it would have been nice to know in advance that it was a limited menu. To be fair, I didn't go looking to see if it was, but when I made the reservation, nothing was posted or sent to me about it. The ambiance was really nice. It did take over an hour after arriving to see any food, which was disappointing. Other tables around us had appetizers, mains, and desserts all in one sitting. The waitress was very nice though, and it was a good experience, if not a delayed one.

The limited menu was disappointing that our chocies were eliminated and food was overpriced.
Really bad experience. It was soo noisy we ended up leaving the place without doing anything. We went there for date night.
We went with a group of colleagues on a Wednesday night. The restaurant has an amazing vibe! And it's beautiful too. However, the menu is somewhat limited and the evening we went, it was the first time the were offering their new menu.
I picked the pork belly and there were 3 pieces, 2 were good but the third one wasn't, it was just fat. A little disappointing.
The service was good. Maybe I'll give the restaurant a chance next time I travel to Ottawa, but we'll see!

Always a great time. Menu changes quarterly. Great surprises every time. Order a Prohibition Pilsner. Great to see our friend Abel.
Abel was our server for the night he was great. there were a few hiccups with our order and some allergies that were almost triggered but he made it through with a smile. It was our best friend Bella’s birthday, and he very kindly bought her a celebratory shot. We were a busy group, and some items were missing but overall, it was a good night.

We had made a reservation for about 12 people for my friend’s birthday. We all work in the restaurant industry and understand when service is slow because its busy. So that was ok and we tried to be patient but our waiter continue to make mistakes, bringing us the wrong drinks multiple times and especially when he gave my friend who had informed him of her pineapple allergy and he gave her a sangria with pineapple juice instead of the pineapple free cocktail she ordered. We caught the mistake on our own but that could have ended our night then and there. Upon leaving the restaurant we realized we hadnt even gotten two of the dishes we had ordered and paid for. We were there for almost 3 hours and this was barely the experience my $200 tab reflected. Honestly a disappointment but we had another place to be to celebrate my friend’s birthday so we didn't let the rocky start affect us. There are honestly better places to go in Ottawa with more efficient service i wish we went there. We appreciate you guys hosting us but it wasn’t great and I wasted my money in all honesty. The price was not worth it.

A wonderful warm welcome at the door! A delicious bootlegger brunch plate. Soft scramble, thick pork belly and light pancakes. I would have preferred more baked beans, but overall the meal was filling and very enjoyable. I added a biscuit and if you really want to take the part up a notch, go for the $35 endless mimosas. The staff we happy to keep those glasses full

Great Saturday evening with a group of ladies. We were seated in a private room which was lovely. Cocktails and food were on point and easy parking - parking garage next door, on the street and across the street.

Very nice evening with delicious food. Service was very good. We were put in a separate room (being a small group) which was great in theory but the lighting is extremely dim in there. Not the best for photos but overall the evening and celebration was fantastic.
my new favorite brunch spot. The bottomless mimosas were AMAZING perfectly balanced, never watered down, and always refilled quickly.

The quality of the food and drinks were great. The vibe is fantastic and the music playlist was blues and soul which is definitely my jam. Service was great too.
