💥🧨I was blown away at how unsuspecting this place is. 💥🧨

How have I missed it in the last 3 years living in the area. It is a spot without a lot of street coverage, so it looks small from the street.
It's actually a long cozy spot. An enormous bar runs along one wall and the other is spotted with tables.

Started with a🍻 beer🍺 on-tap. They had a good selection and a few that were quite new to me. Perfectly poured and wait for it, pristine temperature❄️. I mean the best draft-beer🍻 I have had in eons. I was akin to glacier 🏔️water temperature. I am drooling for another as I write this.

It's hard in our little corner of the world🗺️🇨🇦 of kitchissippi ward, in Ottawa west, to find places with the kitchen still open past basic dinner hour.🕤 This place was and boy oh boy was it on point.📢

I've been to many pubs and some really take pride in what their kitchen is offering. Be it becoming few and far between. This place puts their all into what is being fired♨️ out of the kitchen.

My buddy and I split the🥩 rib-steak🥩 sandwich, with fries🍟 AND a balsamic vinaigrette salad🥗. We had popped out for a smoke🚬 and upon return the food was in our spots. But, this must be two orders☝️🍽️🍽️. We were going to share..no no.

🤹The attentive and caring server knows her craft. 🫅She had the kitchen split🌗 the order. They must have put a little extra to make them into full orders because we each had full plates.🕺🕺

The sandwich was like eating something right out of a commercial.🎉 But those we know are made to look good making them virtually inedible. So not the case.🍽️

Steak 🥩 was juicy and perfect pink. The toppings were complimentary of the caramelized 🧅onions, still with a tad bit of crunch left in them. The bun🥖. Stood up from the juices of the steak, using a ciabatta that was no doubt made very recently.

Fries🍟 didn't take a starring role but certainly would win best supporting in a contest. The salad,🥗 was a nice touch. Tasty vinaigrette but not much to it other than mixed greens. Both of us were beyond satisfied.💯

But wait, ☝️we also got an order of tatter tots to share. We could easily have skipped these but we didn't know what the sandwich was going to be and we only ordered them to fill the gap we expected due to sharing🤝. Tater tots were plentiful and also cooked 🧑‍🍳with care. Their side of dip that accompanies it should and could be bottled👌. We ended up talking most of the tots home but there wasn't a drop of the dip to indulge later.

Now the time to waddle out. Check please. 🧾I didn't pay much attention to the prices because how bad would it be sharing. She must have left something off because it was below $50, less than $45 closer to $40.....start the car.🚗

What a value packed, tantalizing and exceptionally served surprise🎇🎆. The Wood will now be our first🥇 choice when searching 🧭for a little later night spot🌆.

I didn't ask the servers name but I certainly hope they never give her any time⌛off so that the customers get the real deal this place offers.🎯

See you soon🔜. As I am ready to go, 3️⃣ times a day.

Thanks for a once in a blue 🔵moon.🏁

Best fries you can find in Hintonburg! Forgot to snap a picture, but they're thick cut and everything you want in a fry! High recommend. Although the gravy isn't anything special. Get plain fries here and skip the poutine.

I'm not from the area, but this place was the most casual place we could find in the area. It was comfortable and laid back with friendly service. The food was pretty good too. I liked the vibe here.

Nice atmosphere and really great location. It’s extremely comfortable and great for watching a game!

Our food was not great (nachos were burned) though we learned later from our server that they were understaffed.

Came here with a friend for a late night pint on a week night. Bartender was beyond amazing, a great selection of beer/spirits, and plenty of good TVs for watching the game will keep me coming back!
