26 Best Wine Bars in Ottawa

“We go here every year for Valentines Day the last few years ❤️ we love trying new things!“

“Highly recommend! I was hesitant at first because I had no idea what the majority of menu items were. I was completely blown away. I am a very picky person, but the menu and how the food was explained in full detail, no matter the question by our incredible waitress was the first sign this is the place to be! A huge thank you to the waitress especially, the staff as a whole and a huge high-five to the chefs for clearly putting your all in to every single menu item. I was fortunate enough to run in to one of the owners and give my nothing short of positive feedback. He was so grateful and humble. Keep it up all! Would recommend to anyone. Will be back!“

“great space, awesome knowledgeable staff, incredible wine list and they were even able to accommodate a fussy vegan with fresh flavourful food.“

“I’ve been here a few times and every time I go I’m impressed. The food and drinks are great, but what really makes it special to me is how we’re treated. From the moment we walk in it feels like they genuinely want you to have the best night. Can’t wait to go back!“

“Awesome atmosphere and friendly staff“

“Abbis and his team did everything they possibly can to allow my son and daughter in law to have the best possible day and most memorable event of their lives. Thank you for your hard work, pristine attention to detail and the best possible service.“

“Service is impeccable. The staff are warm and lovely. Food was delicious. I ordered the duck au poivre and it was cooked perfectly with a mix of well-seasoned vegetables. It was hard to choose from their menu and I’d love to come back for their lobster and steak dishes! I also had some of my friend’s brussel sprouts and it was amazing. Another friend ordered the mulled wine and while I didn’t taste it, it smelled wonderful.“

“Great food and fantastic service Highly recommended“

“Went to celebrate my birthday what a great choice. The service was excellent, The food was beautiful presented and the taste was amazing. Not our first visit and won't be our last.“

“We enjoyed the 10 course tasting menu today. It was an exceptional experience. The service was incredible- attentive, polite, knowledgeable and kind. The food was delicious, and the chefs accommodated for allergies, dietary restrictions, children spice tolerances and without complaint or eye rolling (which we usually get). This was an unforgettable time and we will surely be back. We are all bursting with the satisfaction of so much great food.“

“I can not emphasize enough how there are eating establishments, restaurants, GREAT restaurants & then there is Harmon's. You & your guests do not go for a meal at Harmon's, you go for a service & meal EXPERIENCE! From the moment you visit the specialty meats shop to being greeted & seated to being treated like a most valuable guest to the meal including a fantastic, not to miss dessert, this is beyond outstanding in every way. 3rd straight year for our wedding anniversary and we will return without question.“

Thanks to Andrew & his staff for making great first impressions with my family.“

I can’t say enough about our server Sue, she was attentive, personable, funny and made my first experience here a memorable one.

“We celebrated my daughter's birthday at Med on June 26, 2026, and were delighted from the moment we walked in. Parker and Angela took exceptional care of us—the service was flawless and the food was outstanding. Between the beautiful decor, wonderful atmosphere, and top-tier hospitality, it was a truly memorable evening. Thank you for making her birthday so special. We will definitely be back!“

“Hosted a retirement party for approx 85 people. Chris, the General Manager , was great to work with. He made sure that enough staff was present and accommodated our group!

The staff were excellent , friendly, and made the evening go very well.

If your looking for an informal get together or in our case a retirement party, Taproom 260 is a great place to host it!

Thank you Chris and your staff! Well done!“
