Place was busy and I didn't have a reservation but I was only one person so I was able to sit at the bar immediately which was great.

Service was good, attentive bartender. Quick service providing me a menu, drink, taking my order etc.

Food came out in reasonable time, I wasn't in any hurry. They apologised to the guy next to me for his food taking a while.

My only real complaint was that there wasn't a lot of food for the money. What I got I would have expected to be 4 or 5 dollars less for that amount of food.

I finished eating it, and was immediately thinking where I'll go to get some more food because I'm still hungry.

It tasted good, and everything else was fine, just a little expensive, though it is The Glebe.

Also parking was a pain, but it's Sunday afternoon in the Glebe in Ottawa, not their fault, just something to take into consideration.

Lovely place! Delicious, skillfully prepared food with attentive and friendly service. Convenient location accessible on foot or by public transit, with plenty of street parking nearby. Gender neutral washrooms. Does not appear to be wheelchair accessible.

We ordered the cauliflower and bacon cheeseburgers and everything was delicious. Definitely more than enough food for two people (and we probably didn’t need the fries which we barely made a dent in!) our server, Felix, was excellent.

Good food served in this restaurant. Products are fresh but meals are lacking flavor. Staff is nice and friendly. Booking is recommended for Brunch.

Wow. What a pleasant surprise to accidentally find this gem! A concert night had us escaping the overcrowded Landsdowne park area ( tried to get into 3 restaurants!) on to Bank Street across from kettlemans. Food was delicious and service top notch

Vegetarian options: Best roasted cauliflower app in the city.

Dietary restrictions: They were able to easily navigate my allergies to Tree Nuts, Fish and sensitivity to dairy.
