Riviera Ottawa is a gem of a restaurant that offers an exceptional dining experience. The attention to quality is top-notch, from the service to the drinks and food. The ambiance is appealing, with dark, fancy speakeasy vibes. The cocktails are strong and creatively mixed, with many varieties available, making it a great spot for a special occasion or a night out with friends. The menu features a range of delicious dishes, including the beef tartare, Mushroom Toast, Burrata with Umbrian Truffle, and Gently Smoked Duck Breast. Guests can also enjoy steak frites, which is very tender and flavorful, and a classic burger that is double patty and heavy. The scallop chowder is highlighted as a great starter with fresh scallops and a nice touch of ginger. The desserts are impressive as well, such as the Warm Sweet Potato with Miso Caramel, though some may find them a bit too sweet. Guests can enjoy a relaxed atmosphere in a beautifully converted old bank, making it an ideal spot for a celebration. Attentive service enhances the experience, with staff being friendly and helpful, providing great suggestions. The restaurant boasts clean washrooms and a unique photo booth at the back. With its reputation for excellence, Riviera Ottawa is a must-visit for foodies exploring Ottawa. Reservations are recommended, as it can get quite busy, and sitting at the bar is also an option for dining.
