“I keep coming back to Montana’s on Merivale for many reasons - the food is consistently tasty (LOVE THE ANTOJITOS), the front of house staff are always welcoming, and the service is top-notch. I specifically request to be seated in Jackie’s section whenever she is working - she is always warm and personable, very hard-working, and attentive even when the restaurant is hopping. This will always be one of my main go-to places!”
“Yusuf was an absolutely fantastic server! I haven’t experienced such great customer service since I was in Japan, and Japan has some of the greatest customer service in the world. He was energetic, helpful, and funny 100/10. I got the keto meal and the veggies were fresh and perfectly crunchy. The bacon was crispy (just how I like it), and the scrambled eggs were perfectly scrambled. I will definitely come back again, especially if Yusuf is my server. Give him a raise!”
“Kelsey’s Barrhaven is number 1!! Food and drinks were amazing and our server Cara was top notch. Can only give 5⭐ or I’d give more.”
“Outstanding service from start to finish. Warm, genuine welcome, and professional, knowledgeable server. Food was delicious and packed with many flavour profiles. Lots of variety to choose from. Would definitely recommend and can’t wait to come back. Thank you for making our Wednesday night memorable! Keep up the good work❤️👍”

“We've been to a few Sansotei and this location was better. The ladies serving us were attentive and nice. Compared to other locations, the broth was warmer which had been a recurring problem with other ramen shops!”
“My son Evan took me to lunch yesterday and it was a 10/10. Great meal and afterwards when our waiter found out it was my birthday, he brought over a menu with numerous choices for a complimentary dessert. I chose the cheesecake and it arrived with a beautiful blueberry sauce, a sparkler and message of best wishes!! 😮 It was amazing and if that wasn’t enough, he also gave me a birthday card from all the restaurant staff. Not a, "from all of us here at Chop", everyone had signed it personally!! Also included was a business card with a voucher for complimentary steak bites on the other side. They went above and beyond, it was truly appreciated and I wanted to share that Chop Hunt Club will take good care of you!!! ✅✅✅✅✅”

“We went in on whim for brunch after seeing some good reviews and wow. The food was outstanding, which we could tell when we walked in because the restaurant smelled amazing. And It was nicely traditionally decorated and everything was neat and clean. The waiter was very friendly, and the menu was big but clear. We ordered: Kaak (traditional bread - kinda like a much better pita), the halloumi, shakshouka, a meat and cheese pie (large), and a dip I can’t recall the name of but it was made with roasted red peppers, pomegranate molasses and walnuts and was very nicely presented with some nice olive oil in the middle of the bowl of dip. I also had the minted lemonade. All came out together for a delicious feast. The service was attentive but subtle. And when I went up to pay, everyone in the kitchen seemed happy and were having a good time and the lady at the cash was also very sweet. Seems like a family run operation. 100% will be back soon.”

“When I went to get my food I expected a simple and quick transaction instead I found myself laughing and my day brighten by Xavier and the rest of the team. A great display of professionalism and ability to joke with customers. A great team you guys built. My best wishes on your future endeavours.”
“We were blown away by the birthday cake made for our daughter! We provided a picture of what we had in mind, and Izzy was quick to reply with several options. The cake turned out so well, and it was delicious too! I highly recommend working with Artistic Cake Designs.”
“Food is good and service is quick! Only two things I would like different is replace your lettuce from iceberg to romaine. Iceberg just isn’t the best option for Greek salad And the fries are delicious. Yesterday I was there and they were a bit too greasy That’s all”
“Great Food and amazing flavours! One of the best Indian restaurants in Ottawa.Loved the Momos and Manchurian.”
“We had a celebration for my mom after she passed just recently with a long weekend approaching we had no idea of who we could get River lounge Catering was recommended to us. It couldn’t have been more perfect. Everybody raved about the quality of service, the food, the display . and their professionalism. For our family they deserve five stars thank you so much. V”

“Thank you to Chances R on Woodroffe for providing a great location for a family gathering to celebrate our Mother on the day she received her Canadian citizenship. The reservation associate was fantastic with the details and confirmation for our party and a very special thank you to our amazing server Sam who provided outstanding service to our large group. Great establishment and the food was great! Highly recommend.”
“I had such a great experience at Harvey’s! Ashton was absolutely amazing and provided such friendly and kind service. He was super kind, helpful, and made sure everything was taken care of. You can really tell that Ashton loves his job and cares a lot about making customers have a good experience. Definitely one of the best experiences I’ve had at Harvey’s. Thank you Ashton.”
“I'm not sure why, but the last 2 times I went for brunch the food wasn't as good as it usually is (2 different options) . Still recommend, but maybe order from lunch or dinner menu. Excellent gluten free options, as well as good vegan and dairy free options. Knowledgeable and friendly staff”
“First of all, this is the best east Mario’s in Ottawa service wise. We didn’t have a great experience with the other ones.
Lewis is our favourite server of all time. Great guy and SUPER fast even when it’s busy. This guy should get a raise for his exceptional work.
Lastly, this place has amazing seasoned potato wedges. Ordered the hell kitchens chicken entree and it came with the best potato wedges I’ve ever had. Sadly didn’t take any photos.”
“We recently held a gathering of about 40 people and it was a great experience at East Side Marios Bells Corners. This was already a busy evening. We had booked a month in advance with a guestimated Attendee # but didn't know the final headcount until 3 days before. The Manager and staff were very, very attentive to all guests. There were people milling around talking to each other as they arrived and the staff were very patient. We had appetizers in advance of the meal to support people finding a seat for dinner, and all went very smoothly over the 3.5 hours we were all together. Kudos to Roy and team!!!! They were able to manage multiple dietary requirements - Great service, great evening..”
“Excellent food, excellent service! Just enjoyed a beautiful buffet with a wonderful selection of international dishes, plus scrumptious desserts! The hostess, servers, and chefs were very courteous and friendly. I would highly recommend checking out this gem!”

“My favourite Subway by far. Staff are always super friendly, especially the main guy during the day (maybe the manager?) who always remembers my order and is always so pleasant to talk to.
Sandwiches are always made generously and are delicious each and every time. I never have to beg for more vegetables (unlike other locations - ahem, Merivale Mall) because they always put enough on and do exactly as you ask.
Highly recommend this location for the delicious subs and great service.”
“I had an absolutely amazing experience at this McDonald’s location! From the moment I walked in, everything felt welcoming, clean, and well-organized. The staff were incredibly friendly, patient, and professional—even during what seemed like a busy time. You can really tell they care about customer service and making sure every order is done right.
The food came out surprisingly fast, and everything was fresh, hot, and exactly how I ordered it. The fries were perfectly crispy, the burger was well put together, and the drinks were just right. It’s not always easy to maintain consistency at a fast-food restaurant, but this location really exceeded my expectations.
What stood out the most to me was the attention to detail. The dining area was spotless, tables were cleaned quickly, and the overall environment felt comfortable whether you’re dining in or just stopping by for a quick bite. Even small things—like how neatly the food was packaged—made a difference.
I’ve been to many McDonald’s locations, but this one definitely ranks among the best. Great service, great food, and a great atmosphere. I’ll absolutely be coming back again and would highly recommend this location to anyone looking for a reliable and enjoyable experience!”
“I think this is one of the best McDonald’s locations in Ottawa.
What impressed me the most was an employee named James. For the first time, I saw a McDonald’s employee doing much more than simply wiping down tables. James carefully disinfected the window ledges beside every table, paid attention to every detail, and even cleaned up all the garbage underneath the tables. I have never seen someone take such pride in keeping a restaurant spotless. He truly deserves a 5-star recognition for his outstanding work.
Beyond the excellent staff, this McDonald’s has a comfortable dining area, a welcoming atmosphere, and an incredible amount of parking. I absolutely love coming here for a cup of coffee or breakfast and simply enjoying a relaxing, happy start to my day.
Thank you, James, for your dedication and for setting such a high standard!”
“Located within a plaza that has plenty of parking spots, iCook Pho You is a great spot for a quick bite. Two things to note: their deep fried pork spring rolls have a great taro aroma and their beef pho stock is cinnamon forward.”
“Hopefully will return one day 😢 best Italian restaurant Ottawa has had by far!”

“I have had a chaotic year, and Shawarma Prince has been the absolute life saver to eat healthy. As a type 1 diabetic, the food here is healthy, low carb and really yummy! I go to the Merivale road location and the staff here are the absolute best! If you are looking for a healthy, affordable, mouth watering meal, this is the place to go...5 out of 5 stars. JJ...”
“Good food and nice atmosphere. This restaurant is one of our first choices for dining out. Thank you Maddi for your excellent service.”
“Amazing service, the staff was so welcoming and the food was exactly what we were looking for. We had the combo for 2, and there was lots left to bring home! Large portions, great flavor, amazing staff.”

“The service is great here! I ordered accidentally from the Bank location instead of Carling. The worker (not sure if manager) was so nice and corrected the order, even though it was already made at Bank Street location. She contacted the other location herself, and right away made me a new order. Thank you so much for such great service!”
“This is hands down my favorite Shawarma place in all of Ottawa and beyond! My family and I eat here frequently because no other Shawarma place compares. Food is always fresh and delicious. Staff are kind and accommodating. Come here and you won't be disappointed!”
“i’ve been looking forward to ordering a cake from this business for a while now, maybe since 2 years ago. i finally decided i’d order a custom cake from them this year and wish i had ordered sooner!
at first, e-mailing was a little tough because i wanted VERY specific details on my cake. i did my best to list all the details and asked lots of questions, but ultimately, it was easier to discuss my cake in-person. sally was helpful over email nonetheless, answering most of my questions, approving details of my cake, and providing a final cost.
carrie was the lady i met in-person and was also the one who would design my cake. she was lovely, friendly, patient, really took the time to make sure she understood the details i wanted, was very concise and straightforward, explaining how she would design the cake and how payment would follow. once she reviewed the cake details with me, i felt very secure about her handling the cake. she also accommodated my preference in picking up the cake at a location closer to me on the day the cake was made. upon pickup, she showed me the box my cake would be in, i waited after a couple customers in line ahead of me (i wanted to pick up the cake as early as possible that day), then i paid the remaining amount. she also instructed me on refrigerating the cake and taking it out before serving for the best texture.
now for the cake itself, it turned out beautiful—actually exceeded my expectations honestly. i hold custom requested items to a high standard and i really was not disappointed. it was worth the cost to me. i wanted an 8-inch cake, specific colour, frosting texture, flavour, number of and arrangement of macarons/additional toppings, and message on the cake. she delivered, flawlessly. the box it came in was very secure and you could see through the box! which was new to me, but i loved that detail.
as for the taste, i asked for raspberry and vanilla because i love light and fruity flavours. it turned out just perfect, and the best part was it wasn’t too, too sweet—just the right amount for me. i could actually eat a whole slice to myself without it feeling too sweet! all my guests enjoyed the cake too. i was able to serve 8 guests a single, large slice each, as well as send them home with another large slice by the end of the night. the total cost was about $120 including the deposit and the custom cake was tax-free. in my experience, it was one of the cheaper custom cakes i’ve ordered cost-wise, considering the amount of detail.
i will be buying from no70cake again for future events. great service and accomodation, amazing commitment to their clients requests, very informative and friendly, excellent quality in cakes. thank you so much! :)”
“We ordered from skip and my meal was missing, so I called and spoke with I think the manager? Not sure who it was but she said they can’t order skip back and said I could come pick it up . I didn’t want to pick it up as I had guest over, so she said hang on and asked for my address and said they would deliver it.We opened the door and she was apologizing like crazy I wish I had her name but just want to say thank you and great service!, mistakes happen it’s how you deal with it. Thank you to the extremely nice lady who delivered it 😊”
“Shweta at Fat Bastard Burrito deserves all the praise for making a tofu burrito that completely changes the game.
Absolutely Incredible Service & Food!
I had the best experience at Fat Bastard Burrito thanks to Shweta! I ordered the tofu burrito, and it was hands-down the most delicious, flavor-packed burrito I’ve ever had.
Shweta was exceptionally friendly, fast, and paid incredible attention to detail while assembling my order. Every single bite was fresh, perfectly seasoned, and crafted to perfection. It is rare to find tofu prepared this well, and Shweta truly made it unforgettable.
Thank you, Shweta, for your top-notch customer service and skill! I will definitely be back regularly because of you!”

Cheap Eats
“Always come here for a slice of pizza (Equivalent to 2 slices). It’s a small family run spot doing their utmost best to serve the community. I am always looking for family run restaurants and places to eat, and this fits the bill. Friendly people, good food, and worth visiting if you are in the area. The owner truly does his best for his customers.”
“we were there at 4:30pm on Sat didn't get out food until 7:30 and it came out cold. service was absolutely horrible.”
“The only Thai restaurant in Ottawa that has the food taste like in Bangkok! Everybody we sent there becomes a life customer! You should mention for your choice menus 1,2 or 3 chilly spice levels otherwise it goes to default original recipe!”

“May 28, We had a Surprise Party Where do I begin the food was $$ reasonable , appetizers and meals were very good, Baked Salmon, Spaghettini /homemade meatballs were a big hit !! Music by Alex Lopez was very entertaining and fun. The service was top notch, my family and friends raved about how polite and how accommodating they were. Claudia and Georgia where very organized. I brought in 3 cakes to be prepared by putting on the special cake toppers for the finishing touch and serving each patron in a timely fashion, as well as serving extra slices of cake each with sparklers and candles. They took control of the details and told me not to worry. Very professional, my family and friends were very impressed over the service and politeness. I am from Toronto , I did a lot of my arrangements over the phone, they made my job so easy. After the big damaging storm Villa Lucia lost there power like many other people in Ottawa and surrounding area. I thought I was going to have to cancel, they lost all there food in there fridge and freezer. In a day and a half they recovered and the party was on. Special Thank You to Claudia and Georgia and there staff. My rate would be 5+”

“My family and I come to this place at least once a month for over a year. We love their dumplings and noodles and they can keep the standard of the food consistently. The servers are very friendly and attentive. The dining room is very clean. Keep up the good work.”
“Stopped by this Baskin-Robbins barrhaven location and had a great experience overall. The service was friendly and welcoming from the moment I walked in, and the staff took their time helping with flavor choices without rushing. The shop was clean, well organized, and had a relaxed, chill vibe that made it a nice place to sit and enjoy dessert. The ice cream itself was fresh, creamy, and generously topped, exactly what you expect from Baskin-Robbins. Definitely a solid spot for a quick treat or a late-night ice cream run. I’ll be coming back again.”
