28 Best Wine Bars near Gatineau

“First time visitor on March 23, to celebrate a friend’s birthday. The restaurant was happily booked up when I tried to make a reservation, so I was only able to secure a table at 5:15pm. I left a little note asking them to keep us in mind if there was a cancellation for a later spot, and they contacted me by email, text, and phone when a later table became available for 6:15pm. Very responsive and friendly staff. Our time at Soif was marvellous. The staff were friendly and extremely professional. Service was relaxed yet very polished. Our server was knowledgeable about the wine and took great care to ensure we were enjoying ourselves. We had a flight of wine to start, followed by a beautiful bottle of white, and a flight of bubbles to end our evening. We shared a half cheese/half charcuterie platter that came with a mountain of crispy and delicious crostini, the latter being refilled without having to ask. Such a small but lovely touch. We also shared roasted Brussels sprouts, frites and aioli, a bison tartare, and grilled radicchio, that were all delicious. They surprised my friend with a little dessert wine and candle to acknowledge her birthday, which was so kind and thoughtful. I have not a single critique. The team here works like a well-oiled machine. No one seemed frantic or rushed. It was a lovely evening. I (we) will definitely be back. Santé!“

L’ambiance est conviviale et élégante à la fois. Je recommande fortement ce restaurant, j’y retournerai sans hésiter !“

“Love the vibe ! Our server was awesome“

“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.“

“The service was great the food was delicious came out fast . Loved the appetizers and cocktails . Not much for vegetarians as far as main but all was amazing. We wanted a tea for after our meal but they don't offer teas which we found unfortunate . I would rate this place 8/10“

“Le propriétaire connaît ses vins et vous conseille de façon professionnelle, ambiance sympathique et nourriture délicieuse!!“

“Awesome atmosphere and friendly staff“

“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.“

“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.“

“We had a lot of time before our flight, so we stopped in for a bevy and a bite (April 25, 2026). Very happy to see that they had a couple of IPAs available as well as a decent selection of wines. We ordered drinks and the truffle popcorn, and followed that up with bruschetta. It wasn't very busy when we arrived, so we chatted a bit with Liam, who was helpful and friendly. I work in the wine industry, and when I found out he was interested in wines, we had a great conversation. He made our day an unexpected delight.“

“Unpretentious, unique menu, great service & great people!“

“Amazing food, staff and atmosphere. Loved it!“

“Went here for date night; it was a lovely experience. The service, atmosphere and food were all on point. Price wise, it was very reasonable. We had apps, 2 drinks each and mains, and were out of there for under 200. Definitely would recommend this place. The pasta was cooked properly and seasoned nicely. We went on a Saturday and booked reservations in advance.“

“Friends took me for my birthday and I found the food excellent. We shared 2 platters with brisket, pulled pork, ribs and fork and knife chicken. Brisket was excellent but a single slice underscores beef prices I suppose. Brussel sprouts, beans and coleslaw were excellent. Dessert choices are light with only 2 options. Service was very good but docked one star as it seems our order was forgotten and we waited almost 90 min after our pork belly appetizer to get our meals. Server comped our drinks though which was nice.“

“Tatyana, our server, was absolutely amazing. She is a very kind and amazing individual and we are so glad that we got to meet her. The food is also very delicious. The menu has tons of interesting unique options that you wouldn’t necessarily see elsewhere and the deserts are just as remarkable.“

“We had a lovely dinner at Joe's in Almonte tonight. Great service, good food and all around enjoyable.“

“i add an amaizing expérience with some members of my family the food is excellent i really liked every thing that we eat and the atmosphere was really cool i recommande it to every one“

“cortese gentile professionale“

“My experience was amazing. The food and service was genuinely outstanding. I was blown away by the customer service and friendliness of the staff. The server had impeccable knowledge of the menu and the food was to die for. I would definitely 10/10 recommend this restaurant to anyone who wants to be blown away by a local restaurant with unique interior and delicious one of kind cuisine.“

“We’re two Nova Scotia moms in town for the Canadian Ringette Championship, and we ended up coming back to this restaurant FOUR nights in a row—which really says it all! Every visit was consistently amazing. We tried the steak sandwich, steak bites, French Onion soup, burgers, and the fish and chips (which were amazing). Everything was fresh, delicious, and exactly what we needed after long days at the rink. But the absolute highlight of our experience was Leslie. She is truly one of the best servers we’ve ever had—so warm, attentive, and genuinely kind. By the end of our week, we felt like we had made a new friend. Getting to know her was such a treat, and she made each visit even more special. Amazing food, incredible service, and an experience that kept us coming back night after night. Thank you for making our time here so memorable—especially you, Leslie! 💙“

“Excellent vegan option. Atmosphere was nice and cozy. Will definitely come back!“

“I recently celebrated my 50th birthday at Mezzanotte and it was a very nice experience. Not only is the restaurant aesthetically pleasing, the ambiance was amazing. I can’t say enough about our server Sue, she was attentive, personable, funny and made my first experience here a memorable one. We were a bigger group so I got to taste quite a few appetizers and everything was delicious. Main course was also to perfection! I can’t wait to pay them another visit soon.“

“Yessss very good , me and my wife is are best restaurant now and very nice people“

“I caught up with an old friend today for lunch and we couldn't have picked a better restaurant. The food was delicious and the margaritas amazing - both the regular one and the strawberry one. The decor is charming, fun and colourful. Our server took good care of us. We will definitely be back!“

“Honestly i thought this place was going to be over hyped but it met my expectations. Service was impeccable and our server was attentive and very friendly. Food was delicious and worth the price, filling and a good portion sizes too. Octopus was cooked perfectly, my steak was made rare which I asked for and my husbands cod was delicious on a bed of beans and clams.

Highly recommend the pear drink that comes in a bird shaped glass (grey goose pear) and the med martini. The bread and butter is a really good appy too but it’s listed under the sides.

Beautiful ambiance, decor and super comfy seating. It starts to get busy after 830-9pm. When we arrived at 730 it was extremely quiet.

Will def come back and recommend checking this place out.“
