“First time experience eating here tonight. It was wonderful, and made our visit with our out of town guest even more special. The owner, who is the only server in the restaurant, provided great personal service. The food is great too! I wished I had discovered this place sooner. Can’t wait to go back!!“
“We ordered a game day meal and it didn’t disappoint. Great value for your buck. It arrived within the promised time, very courteous driver. Came with 2 pizzas, wings, dips and drinks. Good for our family of four. Wish I had taken pictures but we were too hungry for “
“I ordered brio as my drink. Dude just rang me up for a regular combo. After the money was paid he said oh brio is a different price and made me select a different drink. Slices here are kinda small. I think the make large slices instead of the extra large slices I can get at other places.It seems to me the service here is very inconsistent looking at many other reviews. Although there are many replies by Corporate I fail to see initiative or any additional training for employees. These comments might just be theatrics to seem like corporate is involved.Update: Consistency and communication problem seem to have improved. slices and pizzas have a crispy crunch to my liking.“
“Always a lovely time here. From the moment you enter to the end it’s truly a pleasant experience. The food is authentic and I must say the cannoli were just scrumptious. Great way to get the Italian experience away from italia. Will definitely be coming back again.“
“Went back to Town for the first time since 2018. Food and drink is still good but I do dislike that they merged the menu with Citizen. They used to be distinct and have different reasons to dine at, now it’s basically the same restaurant that takes the best from both and removes a lot of other options. Service was quick but it did feel a bit like they were trying to rush us out to turn around the table. Prices were fair.“
“Delicious authentic wood-oven pizza! The pizzas are huge and a great price compared to other spots in the city. Would definitely go back and recommend to others. The menu has a nice selection of different pizzas for everyone to enjoy - vegetarian, tuna, steak, etc.“
“The food truck has transitioned into a restaurant now. I really love their Paneer Ghotala Kulcha and Channa Kulcha. The portion sizes are generous, and the prices are affordable for everyone, while maintaining high quality and delicious taste. Must try food places in Ottawa.Vegetarian options: It is pure vegetarian restaurantParking: Open parking lot“
“Nice place overall. I got the rosey and Spicy and asked for more spicy and they did, it was great. Portion size was a bit more on the smaller side so if you’re hungry upgrade to the large. The garlic bread was great, good amount of garlic. Would definitely go “
“We ordered some platters and salads from Roberto’s Corner for my daughter’s outdoor christening and the food was outstanding. Incredibly fresh, flavourful and excellent value. There was absolutely no work on our part; just remove the lids and serve. Roberto was very attentive to our needs and made us feel very confident in our choice. We will definitely be ordering from there again!“
“After seeing so many positive reviews about Maple Delight, I ordered the honey garlic chicken delight tonight and it was delicious. It tasted very artisan, in comparison to the frozen pizza taste you often get from some places, and even my two year old (who doesn’t really fancy pizza) downed a couple of slices.The breaded wings were also pretty good and the service was amazing, as my food was delivered despite some crazy weather outside.I’ll definitely be getting pizza here again and will recommend Maple Delight to anyone who asks.“
“The food, especially the Spicy Clarice pizza and the Elton pizza, was delicious and affordable. The location is easily accessible by bus, though the interior design is not so good—too busy and noisy. Overall, it's worth recommending.“
“Restaurant ambiance looks very nice but I ordered takeout. Although I was the only one waiting for an order they forgot about me. I opted for the steak pizza. It was very good but had a tiny piece of steak on each slice. I even think one slice was forgotten. Next time I will preorder and order a different pizza. I also like thru idea if the “Rotating Pizza” Special. That day it was Chicken Paprikash. Need to ask!“
“Great buns and fresh meat! Had the veal Parm which was very nice and finished off the meal with an amazing cannoli. The staff was friendly and patient. Very happy that they are using good buns that don't fall apart the second a sauce touches them. Will be back to try other sandwiches!“
“This place is a hidden gem, and we loved their wood oven pizza so much that we had to order a 2nd one.It's the perfect destination for a casual night out or a cozy dinner with friends and family. Don’t forget to try the tiramisu. It’s absolutely delicious!!!Joe & MariaPS looking forward to going back and trying other dishes.“
“It has been awhile since I had service and food like this. From the moment you walk in and get greeted you know it's a good restaurant. Impeccable table placement. Great wine selection. Food was amazing. Fresh, made from scratch pasta. Will definitely go again and recommend it to ally friends.“
“My first time there. I was in the area so I stopped in for some lunch. I ordered the gnocchi Alfredo. Oh.My.God!! I can honestly say that was one of the best Italian dishes I’ve ever had. The gnocchi were so fluffy and the sauce was amazing. Extremely friendly service as well. I’ll definitely go out of my way to get some more of that!!“
“Amazing quality food meat is fresh, sauce and veggies are great and bread is picked up fresh from bakery every morning. Frankie has great customer service, food came quick and very reasonable price at 14$ for a buffalo wrap combo. 10/10 recommend if you are in the area.“
“The moment we stepped into this restaurant, we were greeted by a warm atmosphere and a menu that promised an exciting culinary journey. Despite a minor error in our order, the staff's prompt and courteous response was impressive, ensuring our satisfaction. The dishes we sampled were a delightful fusion of flavors, beautifully presented and leaving us eager for our next visit. This small oversight was easily overlooked, thanks to the overall excellence of our dining experience.“
“After spending an afternoon at the Canadian Museum of History, it was necessary to refuel.What's better than a good slice of pizza?We came across Lil Z's Pizza.A very nice brand.The dough is very good, the quality of the products could be better.But it's very correct!I recommend stopping by for a little hunger...or to celebrate your 3rd birthday! Vegetarian options: Vegetarian pizza which looks very goodKid-friendliness: Possibility of celebrating your 3rd birthday“
“I love eating here! I usually grab a burger combo for lunch if i'm feeling a bit lazy- Super crispy fries and pretty good portions as well. I've had the pizza too! It's tangy and good and doesn't have that overly doughy feeling a lot of Ottawa pizza has. The ladies here are very friendly; Absolutely give their food a try!“
“We have been here multiple times, and we have never had a bad meal. In fact, we have never had a mediocre meal. Every meal is not just delicious, but presented beautifully. As a foodie, this place is definitely worth the drive. You can’t beat the food or the view.“
“Never judge a restaurant by the strip mall! Just a great spot with an extensive wine list and outstanding Italian dishes. Pizzas looked great, will try next time. I had the special zuppa which was Mushroom, very well blended and delish, as well as the lasagna which was fresh baked for me, a tad small, but seriously wonderful with crispy bits of cooked cheese. The Zuppata or similar cake was quite nice and light.“
“Had an amazing birthday dinner here! Our waiter Sebastian was great, he was so helpful in describing every single thing on the menu. All the food that he recommended to us was so amazing, I loved every single little bite. He was also able to recommend good wine pairings to go with each meal. I loved my experience here, 10/10 recommend!!“
“Delicious food with an incredible gluten free selection. Knowledgeable staff with top notch service. Kind and accommodating Chef & Owners. Side note...there was a party there for a birthday and Chef Nelio sang...what an amazing voice! Multitalented! The very reasonable prices were a pleasant surprise, would have expected to pay more for the quality of the food. Thank you for accommodating our reservation before our show!“
“Been living in Westboro for a few years and we wanted to try this new place that our neighbours told us about. What a lovely atmosphere! The service is very friendly, and they were accomodating for us to send one of their employees outside to our car to give us the pizza!! And the food is delicious!! We ordered a large pizza and the club sandwich and it was served with fries and a delicious salad on the side. Great stuff. Can't wait to come here in the summer!!“
“Stopped here for a quick lunch riding bikes from Ottawa. Nice little sandwich shop. We got the ham and brie and the Italian combo plus a couple of poutines. Sat on the patio in the shade of an umbrella and really enjoyed ourselves and the food was delicious. Thanks for lunch!!!“
“I discovered today, December 23rd 2023 that the wonderful lady who serves me, if she's not there, I don't go in. Well, I discovered today that she is in fact a deer. I know it sounds fantastical, nevertheless it is true. She also happens to be the best deli Slicer in Ottawa. Thanks for allowing me to become part of the Misto family. But that's Marcus in the photo. Happy holidays to all and to all a good night.“
“They have excellent Italian pasta & cooked food that are made onsite. Prices are very good for the quality of their food. You can buy fresh pasta, sauce, cheese, and other ingredients and cook it at home, or choose from a wide variety of delicious cooked dishes to take out. You may even order from their lunch menu and eat it there !!! They also have homemade pies, which are usually sold out by supper time. Check their website for store hours before visiting. They also do catering. HIGHLY recommended.“
“Came here for the first time for Easter dinner with my family. I chose the Ham and scalloped potatoes option, my dad chose the lamb, his girlfriend chose the cannaloni and my boyfriend had the Chicken Alfredo.The clientele is a bit older than average. We were probably the youngest people there. The service was extremely slow, possibly because old people are not in a hurry.The food was so much better than I had expected. Very delicious, expect for “scalloped potatoes”.Also there was some sort of sweet thing which we decided was “apricot” and when I asked the waitress what it was she said “…yeah… I don’t know.”The ham was good.“
“I would give a 3.5, but the rating option is not possible and I am aware that it can affect your business and that is not my goal.On the other hand, we were disappointed with our order the last 2 times so we will no longer start from you unless there is a change.The bbq chicken pizza did not meet my expectations at all.. But my partner's Canadian pizza was good.The fries were inedible, the slices okay... why? Because they were soft with oil, so full of oil that the bag was soaked in oil, even the delivery man made a joke about it... but it wasn't very good.Very good service from the delivery man, very kind, it was our 3rd time eating from your restaurant.For the so-called "normal" pizzas, they were good, but the others I liked less and the fries were good once but the other two times it was the same problem.The best of wishes for the future. THANKS“
“I came here late at night with a family of 6. We were very hungry and we had the family souvlaki platter plus 6 skewers. We were treated to a delicious and filling feast by the general manager Sari. Great quality, quantity, and value!! Definitely come and try this delicious restaurant .“
“Amazing pizza! Hard to find these days a great classic pizza, J&N have it!Service is great, always very friendly.The dine in experience is very old school trucker style joint with pool tables. Despite the no renovations done since they opened 40 years ago, I will still continue to order from them as my #1 go to pizza for their service quality!“
“As usual, Hog's Back Restaurant, makes an excellent pizza! I tend to order the 6 ingredients on two pizzas special for takeout, which is what I did last visit. Yummy! Delicious mix of cheeses, sauce and all the other fresh ingredients. This family run business also has a great atmosphere if dining in. Thank you for the many years of service.“
“My boyfriend and I went out for dinner on Saturday. We’ve been talking about a date night at La Strada for months and finally found time for a Saturday night reservation. For reference we are late twenties/early thirties. When we got there the owner (*assuming) was telling the 3 older people ahead of us that he would come back for their jackets once the table was ready. When we said our names we were walked to the table immediately but he didn’t offer to take our jackets or say “enjoy” none of the sort. We were the only ones with our jackets at the table. Not sure if this is because we were two at a table for four, or if maybe they had no more coat hangers…The restaurant was completely full and it was quite loud. When the food came, my bowl must have been right out of the oven. The server didn’t mention anything and I burnt my finger trying to push it directly in-front of me. When I asked for ice he simply walked around to bar and got some ice in a cup, placed it on table and walked away without saying a word. No apology or acknowledgment. The food was amazing.. every bite was 10/10. If it wasn’t for the taste of the food, I probably wouldn’t go back. It felt as if they weren’t taking good care of us… and i can’t help but *assume* it is because of our age. The server wasn’t rude but he definitely wasn’t going above and beyond to make it a great experience for us. It appeared as though he was taking better care of other tables around us. We ended up tipping 20% on a $200 bill. I’m willing to go again because I liked the atmosphere and the food. I’m hoping it was just a one off and a very busy Saturday night.Wheelchair accessibility: Washrooms are downstairs and a few steps to go inside restaurant. I would not recommend this place for someone with difficulty doing stairs.“
“Love, loooove this new location; they are super friendly high energies and very tolerant to last minute orders and clients like myself. I never felt unwelcome and I cant believe I never made a review . . . My pizza and wings were top level and I just had to share it because it was soo good. Their sauces are on sale and also the speed of their work is on another level. ??❣ ?Thank god some things get better with time. . .“
“This isnt even a proper review, I just ordered these guys off uber eats. From the first bite, as a devout & stuck up Torontonian, 8.5/10, damn good pizza, some of the best in Ottawa for sure. Cheese is for lack of better terms “cheese-E” pepperoni under the cheese (PHENOMENAL touch in my opinion) everything was perfect, it reminded me of pizza as a kid.As an edit: I’m currently a student, these guys are the place.“
“We went there twice and had a good experience both times. They have a number of creative pizzas and a few other dishes. Entrees are also available like fried pickles.The only thing I would add was an odd discussion I had with the waitress and subsequently the owner about their advertised "20 ounces" beers. When my beer was brought the the table, it was poured in an European glass called a "demi". I'm very familiar with these glasses as I come from France. A "demi" refers to a "half liter", which equals to a little less than 17 ounces. I half-jockingly brought that up to the owner's attention and pointed out I was missing quite a bit of my 20 ounces of beer, to which he responded that "these were the glasses he was getting from the supplier. Not a great explanation really and I didn't get a top-up nor a larger glass, which in my mind would have been the right thing to do.This is not unusual for restaurants to "cut corners" on drinks/glass sizes but I thought this would be worth noting.Food was great. Venue is nothing spectacular but pleasant and cozy. There is a flat screen on the wall presumably for game nights. Washroom.could use a bit of love/organizing. Service was good too.Kid-friendliness: Open to kids!Parking: Not a ton of parking but both times we went we had no problem finding space.Wheelchair accessibility: Restaurant is at ground level, no problem for wheelchairs.“
“I went to Vespa for dinner with my wife and another couple. The service was great. Very attentive and knowledgeable. The food was delicious. We had pastas and pizzas. Both winners for sure.The atmosphere was comfortable and cozy.We will definitely return again.“
“Didn’t know what to expect. Pleasantly surprised, they make really great authentic pizza! Best pizza in Orleans for sure and possibly best pizza in Ottawa. To me this was NY style pizza, great flavor. The Margherita is my favorite so far. This place is a gem been living here for 10 years and this is the closest thing to how pizza tastes back home. We also got the Tiramisu which was excellent.“
“Strolling through the Glebe while visiting from Yellowknife, we found this gem. We had such a lovely conversation about cheeses, truffles and even a tasting. It is so nice to have such a warm experience and support local shops. We look forward to enjoying our cheese selections and coming back the next time we visit. ❤️ If you are in the area, stop by for incredible Italian treasures and warm, heartfelt service, and a perfect Americano!“
“Great pizza, really disappointed they no longer deliver to Wateridge Village.EDIT: turns out it was just a misunderstanding when we last tried to order, and they actually provided us with a free pizza today to make up for it. Very nice of them! Updating to 5/5.“
“Currently my favourite food spot in town! A creative and very affordable mix of Italian, Indian and more - the food surpasses your expectations every time. I have been going up to multiple times per week and never get bored of the dishes. Beyond the consistent high quality, the owner Ruhul is a fantastic guy. Love supporting this small and special business.“
“I attended a birthday party here and it was amazing ?.I discovered that exceptional dining experiences need not come with a hefty price tag. This middle-class gem exceeded all expectations with its inviting ambiance, attentive service, and delicious cuisine. They have a DJ that plays lovely songs to set the mood right and friendly staff. The menu offered a tantalizing array of dishes, each showcasing the chef's skill.Despite its affordability, the restaurant spared no expense when it came to quality, using fresh, locally sourced ingredients to craft each dish with care. Whether dining solo, with family, or among friends, Mezzanotte Bistro proved that you don't have to break the bank to enjoy a memorable meal.“
“Great premium beer, six bucks during happy hour. Warm inviting staff, Mia, Jen and even Ron. Lots of big screen tvs and a nice homey bar. Lots of regulars who are friendly.Only downside to this place is the washrooms are down in the basement which makes it more difficult for people with mobility issues, or lazy people like me.Nice place to go to for a quick beer and a snack or a full meal.“
“It was awesome walking in and seeing people hard at work making delicious pizza. And despite being hard at work, both chefs took the time to greet us warmly! The pizza was perfect, the staff was friendly... We can't ask for much better than that! We will absolutely be back again.“
“What a fabulous treat! My son and I needed to visit a shop on Clarence and the gentleman at the shop said to try Il Vicolo as they had great pizza. He was not wrong! My son had the Carne supreme (I think) and I had the Holy Shiitake. Both were delicious! The steak in particular, on the Carne, wow! The crust was fantastic, chewy and rustic with a fantastic crunch. All around a fantastic experience. We will be back!“
“House of Georgie Sorento's in Ottawa is a hidden gem in the city's culinary landscape. From the moment you walk through the doors, you're greeted with the scent of pizza and a warm smile.Now, let's talk about their pizza – it's incredible. The crust is thin and perfectly crispy, with just the right amount of chewiness. The toppings are fresh and plentiful, and the cheese is perfectly melted. My favorite is the classic combination pizza, but they also have a variety of other options like the House Special, loaded with pepperoni, sausage, mushrooms, peppers, and onions. Each bite is a burst of flavor, and it's clear that the ingredients are of the highest quality.And then there are the wings and fries. They're cooked to perfection, with a crispy exterior and juicy, flavorful interior. The wings come in a variety of sauces, from mild to hot, and each one is delicious in its own way. The fries are hand-cut and seasoned to perfection, making them the perfect accompaniment to any meal.Overall, House of Georgie Sorento's is a must-visit for anyone in Ottawa. The food is fantastic, the service is top-notch. Whether you're in the mood for pizza, wings, or fries, you won't be disappointed.Mr. True“
“I used to give this place a 5 star because I love it so much. This time, I'm downgrading a bit. I mentioned before that a place that has the Beer Bible should have beer flights. How can u sample very many of the beers without a flight?! This forces you to buy 10 oz glasses to sample, which is more expensive, of course.The menu has also changed, with a more limited selection.“
“Lucho provided catering for my wedding for 110 people absolutely loved it. He served for us, had a great price, and provides excellent customer service. I’d highly recommend him for anything from a single lasagna to catering for over 100 people. Thanks Lucho“
“What a nice family owned place!! Everything is perfect, from the friendly service to the great food, prepared with love and all home made... and all at a very reasonable price!! And make sure to order the fried Zucchini... the best I have ever tasted!! This place is a must!“
