Riviera Ottawa is a standout restaurant that offers an exceptional dining experience. The focus on quality is evident in the attentive service, well-crafted drinks, and delicious food. The ambiance features dark, fancy speakeasy vibes, creating a cozy and stylish atmosphere. The cocktails are strong and creatively mixed, with many varieties available, making it a perfect spot for a special occasion or a night out with friends. The menu includes a range of tasty dishes such as 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, along with a classic burger that is heavy and satisfying. The scallop chowder is a popular starter, made with fresh scallops and a touch of ginger, though some find the chowder lacking flavor and the Kaffir lime leaf on top unpleasant. Desserts like Warm Sweet Potato with Miso Caramel are impressive, though some may find them a bit too sweet. The relaxed atmosphere is enhanced by the beautifully converted old bank, making it an ideal place for celebrations. Attentive service, friendly staff, and helpful suggestions add to the overall experience. Clean washrooms and a unique photo booth at the back are nice touches. The space is beautiful and chic, perfect for special occasions like anniversaries and birthdays, with staff making guests feel very welcome and treated with care. Reservations are recommended as it can get busy, and dining at the bar is also an option. Guests often praise the lively patio, reasonable prices, and the unbeatable quality of food and drinks. Overall, Riviera Ottawa remains a top choice for food lovers exploring the city.
