“I don't recommend!!!!!! worst customer service and disrespect from such unprofessional manager. wanted to speak to the manager but he refused and sent the waiter to say he is busy. we told him if manager didn't come we gonna leave and won't order, and he was just fine that we can leave!!!!! such a bad experience.”
“Wonderful experience at Artistic Cake Design. The cake I ordered for my husband's birthday was even better than I had imagined and tasted amazing too. Super friendly staff as well.P.S. If you just need buttercream (and want to do your own decorating) - this bakery sells it too and it is absolutely wonderful to work with.”

“We will always love this family owned, beautiful Mediterranean style restaurant. We have been going there for over 20 years; the food is consistently good, and made with love and care. The staff are wonderful, it’s a favourite of ours.”
“Food was excellent. Good value for the money. Great service. But found it very noisy. Almost had to yell to make conversation. I think it's poor acoustics.”
“Went there for my graduation dinner. All I have to say is the best service, the best food. From owner to the servers 10/10. Thank you so making my evening so special”

“I’ve been here a few times before. Their pho is not as what you would get from pho places in Chinatown. The chicken wings are fried nicely and are crispy. If you don’t want to venture downtown, this place will meet your Vietnamese needs.”
“I brought 6 of my friends over to this location and without a doubt it was the best experience ever. We all enjoyed the food and the service to the max. Kudos to Iman, such an amazing waitress. We would be coming back soon for sure.”
“Multiple orders over the last month at Merivale location and never disappointed. Samosas are very nice, lamb dishes yummy. Looking forward to eating through the menu.”
“I had a great time. The beer selection is fantastic and the espresso martini was delicious. Josh was our waiter and he was terrific. High praise. He has good taste in music too.”
“Emily B. was amazing! It was my first encounter with such an exceptional waitress. Despite the bustling atmosphere, her timing was impeccable. The fish was excellent, and while the fajitas were good, I'd rate the steak 4 out of 5. Although some parts were tender, others were a bit tough. The dessert provided a satisfying conclusion to the meal. I appreciated that the dishes weren't greasy or overcooked. The overall atmosphere was enjoyable.”
“We ordered more than one dish today and they were good, but the children's burger meal was completely inedible the smell of the burger slice is unacceptable ?”
“Food was all amazing, highly recommend the takoyaki and the oranges are insanely good to end off with, our waitress Cai Cai was super nice and attentive and made the experience that much better, highly recommend 11/10”
“Three dishes and one soup, any amount of rice + sugar water = no more than 40 bucks. The most important thing is that it suits my taste.Introduction to Best Google???”

“We got lunch at the drive-thru on Sunday February 11. Cannot express enough how nice we go treated by the employees over the speaker and at the window. It has been a long time since we encounter people this nice and not cranky or rushed. The food was as good as we requested.”
“I popped by this A&W to try an item from their new Brew Bar. I got a small Strawberry Cream Shake ($4.19).The drink is made by a machine and it's fun to watch. The staff just needs to grab a cup and press a button. There's a countdown (count up? Lol) on the screen that tells you what percentage your drink is at (100% means it's done). The drink was good for fast food shakes. It tasted a bit artificial, but that's not surprising. I do like that they use Canadian dairy. Staff here are not as friendly or cheerful as some other locations like the one on Queen St, but they did their job and I was in and out quickly. The inside is bright and clean. They have seating outside as well. This location has a drive thru. It's in the Loblaws Plaza, so lots of free parking.”
“It was a great experience with them.I ordered my food and it got ready with in 3-4 minutes.I really appreciate that.And the nature of cashier was amazing. I still remember her name Avani, she was very sweet and kind to me.Vegetarian options: I really liked the piri piri potato there”
“I must say I was impressed with the upbeat positive environment between the manager Elizabeth and her front end staff Keyana and Jaiauna on 02/05/2024. I've been to this Mcdonald's before and wasn't impressed and kinda didn't want to go that night. Keyana and Jaiauna was very nice young ladies with great customer service. I ask for my food to be cooked fresh and instead of the attitude I normally get from this Mcdonald's the were so happy to make me happy. Elizabeth took the time just to talk to me while I waited for my order. These three ladies showed me that not all people at Mcdonald's are rude and disrespectful. I didn't get the cook name but thank you as well for delivering fresh tasting food! Elizabeth keep up the great job and continue to treat your staff with respect because you will get your best work out of them.Parking: convenient”
“It's mcdonalds. The same everywhere. Denial was very helpful with checking my gift card balance.Vegetarian options: Not enough optionsDietary restrictions: There are not enough options. Every store can't have everything, though. Becomes too chaotic.”
“Nice snacks.Attendant kept acting as if she couldn’t understand me(English). I think she was just trying to be funny though because her colleague called her to order and told her he heard my words clearly.”
“I went to this subway location for first time but it was really amazing experience because staff was really supportive and polite. Rohit served me he was really good as he was answering me in a gentle way for each and every question which I liked a lot and there was one more girl she was doing great too but I forgot her name. I really loved the vibe there, I would definitely visit that place frequently now.”
“I ordered 75 gift cards. Each card had to be punched in, paid for and then activated. A very labour intensive job. Staff were great, patient and professional.Thank-you!”
“I have been a loyal customer for the past three years, visiting almost every weekend with friends. However, my recent experience has left me extremely disappointed and reconsidering my patronage.During our visit on feb 9th I were asked to leave the premises by a waiter , who claimed there had been complaints about our behavior. This came as a complete shock to us, as we have always conducted ourselves respectfully during our previous visits.Not only was rude and accusatory, but her assertion about complaints regarding our behavior seemed completely unfounded and fabricated. This experience left us feeling embarrassed and disrespected, tarnishing what was once an enjoyable weekend ritual.As a regular customer, I believe it's important to highlight such experiences in the hope that they can be addressed and improved upon. I urge the management to investigate this incident further and take appropriate action to ensure that other customers are not subjected to similar treatment.Overall, my recent experience was incredibly disappointing, and I cannot in good conscience recommend it to others until such issues are addressed and resolved.”
“Customer service has really improved here!!! Servers are polite and friendly now - much better! I’m glad the company responded to all the bad reviews and did something about it! Staff are doing a great job, working hard and providing a great experience for the customers despite the busyness. Thank you!”
“We really love the place its so relaxing, the service is 10 star and the food is 100 star. We will definitely go back hereParking: Theres a lot of parking spaces and its free”
“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!!”
“Excellent service! There was a minor mix up at the beginning of the night and they went above and beyond to make up for it and to make sure we had a wonderful night. They are masters at customer service. Thank you!”

“This place is a hidden gem! I absolutely love them! But so does everyone else so be prepared to wait for their amazing sandwiches! (and trust me, it's worth the wait) My go-to obsession is the Candied Club which has chicken, candied bacon, cheese, veggies and jalapeno aoili on it. They have in-house made buns and for a long time I would get it on the white bun but I recently switched to the tomato wrap for a change and am loving that too. If you love pecan butter tarts then you'll have to grab one of those too! Also want to mention that the owners are awesome ❤️”

Drive-Thru Restaurants
“I recently visited the store and had a fantastic experience. The staff was incredibly polite and welcoming, making my visit enjoyable from start to finish. The store was spotlessly clean, which added to the inviting atmosphere. As for the food, it was absolutely awesome; delicious burgers made just the way I like them. I highly recommend visiting the store for a great meal and wonderful service.”
“Nothing bad to say about the staff they do a great job but there's something always about this location and loitering no matter what time of day it feels like 3/4 of the restaurant is people nesting a coffee and you can tell they've been there hours. Just a little complaint as I'm there with 2 kids I kind of need a table to eat at.”
“Just stopped here on our way from Quebec to Toronto and the staff was amazing. She was extremely helping at making suggestions for drinks. I've been to a few booster juices and the customer service here is exceptional. The drink suggested was the prefect pick-me-up for the long drive. My only regret was not getting the girl's name. She deserves some recognition especially in a time where good customer service is so rare.”
“Our waiter Jay gave us incredible service and walked us through the menu as it was our first time. The food was great and we were pleased by the freshness and quality.”
“Yesterday we got the best service from Soso soheila, Sophie and Bobby. I can say this much, we walked in recked from our 8 hour shift. Something about the service literally brought us back to life, we ended up having a good time and the drinks they suggested were just awesome. Soso makes the best dragon fruit lemonades hands down. It makes a difference when you feel welcomed, valued and get personalized customer service. Thanks again folks .. I promised to leave a review and here it is.”
“I have very specific food allergies and I wasn’t sure what was in all the smoothies. Holly explained the entire menu to me and was so patient. Excellent customer service!!”
“This is one Tim Hortons with no inside sitting - either pick up through drive way or from the counter. HOWEVER right across out in the open, there is a beautiful table for 4 under a tree. I could joyfully sit there for 30 relaxing minutes.”
“I came in during the night around 10pm and I could tell that the cooks and cashiers were all tired and worn out. But nonetheless, they kept weak smiles on their faces and gave me and the others excellent service.”
“Had a great meal at Burger King the other day. Food and service were excellent! The only thing is that the washroom could have been a lot cleaner. Still, food was lovely!”
“I do uber eat. So, every time I go to take orders from customers and one day I decided to buy a berger cheese to taste Oh my god I loved it. And since then I have recommended it to all the children in the house. And it went like that.Parking: The parking lot is right in front of the entrance.Kid-friendliness: A place much loved by children and very frequented by teenagersWheelchair accessibility: Yes, no stairs at the start of the school year. Everything is flat and a big door”
“If a loud, noisy atmosphere isn't your "forte: especially while "eating" avoid going between the hours of; 11;20 am till around 12;40 pm as the high school kids are out for their lunch hour , hence, screeching loud teenagers, and lot's of them LoL.Parking: Plenty of parking, with handicap spots also, and if you decide to munch lunch in your vehicle, 80% of the parking spots near the front entrance are free wifi accessible.Kid-friendliness: There's no little jungle gym for the little ones to play, however it is very children friendly, highchairs are available too, and not to mention, inside the public washroom they have change tables for babies, making it, oh so nice for the Mommies.Wheelchair accessibility: There's wheelchair parking, but to be honest, it's not the closest to the main entrance, but it's there none the less.”
“I want to express my immense appreciation for the KFC located at 2015 Robertson Road in Bell’s Corners. Without a doubt, this is hands down the best KFC location!The staff is really next level. These individuals go above and beyond, elevating customer service to superhero status. Their genuine kindness and unwavering dedication to ensuring a positive experience shine through every interaction. It's not just about taking orders; it's about brightening someone's day with a smile and personalized service.Unlike the Kanata location, the chicken is cooked to crispy, juicy perfection, it's like the KFC we had as children. The fries are always fresh and their gravy is incredible. We live somewhat close to the Kanata location, but we go out of our way to come to Bell's Corners, it's that good.Again, what truly sets this KFC apart is the atmosphere. The staff genuinely care about your experience, and it's evident in every detail, from the warm greetings to the meticulous attention to your order. They will go out of their way to accommodate any special requests which is always so appreciated.”
“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.”
“Delicious! I've had their Biryani three times in the last month since hearing about Amma's on CBC. Goat is my favorite so far. Definitely a take-out setup unless you want to eat in a grocery store though.”

“Tasty favourful Chongqing noodles - soup or dry!!If you’re looking for an off the beaten path Chinese noodle house then this is your place! Flavourful, spicy, pungent and very filling. Best choice is the Noodle Soup with beef, pork intestines, ground pork & yellow peas. Chongqing cuisine is a branch of Sichuan Cuisine (one of eight Chinese Cuisines) featuring pungent and spicy flavours as a result of liberal use of garlic, chili peppers, Sichuan peppercorn, beans, mustard and sesame paste.Reasonably priced.Owners are very nice people.If you’re looking for tasty spicy Chinese noodles then this is the place in Ottawa!!Chongqing Dishes is a branch of Sichuan Cuisine (one of eight Chinese Cuisines) featuring pungent and spicy flavor as a result of li Chongqing Dishes is a branch of Sichuan Cuisine (one of eight Chinese Cuisines) featuring pungent and spicy flavor as a result of and other ingredients”

“Lip smacking food that too in a reasonable price. The peri peri fries , burger and everything was really good. Nice indian fusion menu to try with your family and friends!”

“Wow to deliver to the airport hotel in a gnarly snowstorm at 1am a super hot, delicious pizza to us who've been redirected here in the blizzard from Toronto and haven't eaten in 16 hours is GIGANTIC. Thank you!!!”
“Me and my husband love to eat here, we’ve been several times, and I have also ordered through Uber eats several times. The ladies who work there are extremely polite and helpful. This is the very first place I’ve been to, where the waiters were offering to pack up my leftovers instead of just handing me the takeout boxes to do it myself. The food is excellent, always tasting and looking fresh. Complimentary tea when seated in restaurant, is very nice and flavourful yet gentle. I’m very picky with my food, as I have so many allergies and restrictions (celiac, milk, vegetarian, etc.), but the staff is very diligent about it, both in restaurant and also through Uber eats, they even wrote a little note on my takeout, letting me know which sauce was safe for me to eat. the environment of the restaurant is very calming and there’s even a little fish in a large and generally tidy tank that my husband and I like to sit next to and watch the fish swimming around and hiding in the rocks and coral structures.”
“Amidst the flurry of shopping at Bayshore Shopping Centre, my girls and I stumbled upon a nutritional haven that left us craving more than just retail therapy. Akai Bowl, nestled in the heart of the mall, beckoned us with its promise of wholesome goodness and delectable flavors. Little did we know that our impromptu visit would evolve into a nourishing journey, awakening our taste buds and invigorating our spirits.Stepping into Akai Bowl, we were enveloped by a welcoming ambiance that whispered promises of health and vitality. The décor, adorned with vibrant hues and inviting seating, set the stage for what would become a memorable culinary experience. With a desire to indulge in nutritious delights, my girls eagerly opted for the Açai Smoothie, specifically the Chocoburst variant. From the first sip, it was evident that Akai Bowl was no ordinary smoothie joint. The blend of rich chocolate and the refreshing tartness of açai created a symphony of flavors that not only delighted our taste buds but also nourished our bodies from within.What truly distinguished Akai Bowl was its unwavering commitment to customer satisfaction and wellness. From the moment we entered, we were greeted with genuine smiles and a genuine desire to cater to our nutritional needs. The staff went above and beyond to ensure that our dining experience was nothing short of extraordinary. As a delightful surprise, we were offered complimentary samples upon entry, a gesture that underscored Akai Bowl's dedication to promoting health and well-being.One of the highlights of our visit was the opportunity to indulge in Guarana, a Brazilian soft drink that added a touch of exotic flair to our experience. It was a refreshing reminder of the diverse and nutritious offerings available at Akai Bowl, further cementing its reputation as a nutritional smoothie destination amidst the bustling mall environment.Our server, Lucas, deserves special recognition for his professionalism and expertise. Not only was he well-versed in the nutritional benefits of açai and other superfoods, but he also shared fascinating insights into the origin and cultural significance of each ingredient. His passion for promoting wellness was palpable, and his attention to detail ensured that our dining experience surpassed all expectations.In conclusion, Akai Bowl at Bayshore Shopping Centre is more than just a restaurant—it is a nutritional oasis that nourishes the body, mind, and soul. With its delectable offerings, warm hospitality, and commitment to promoting health and wellness, it has set the standard for nutritional smoothie destinations in the area. My girls and I left feeling revitalized and nourished, eager to embark on our next culinary adventure at Akai Bowl. If I could, I would give it more than five stars, for it is not just a smoothie place but a sanctuary of nourishing bliss amid the bustling mall environment.”
“Great place with good, hearty food in an odd location.Yes, as others have pointed out, it's inside the Toyota dealership. Just go in the regular sales entrance, walk past the front desk, up the stairs, and you're right there. A few tables and seats for guests, including sofas for the customer lounge. You can also sit at a a bar height counter and enjoy the view over the service bay. Definitely unique!We had breakfast and some sandwiches. Huge portions! Great service. Nice guys behind the counter. They also had some kind of stew served with rice. We didn't get that, but seemed to be a favourite with the staff working in the dealership.Food was good, coffee was good. Would definitely recommend.Parking: Lots of parking available in the dealership lot. And this was on a Saturday.”
“Fantastic pizza ?We ordered Halal bacon, beef and halal "ham" like meet. It was so delicious ?Their dough and sauce are one of the very best I have ever had..Dietary restrictions: All the menu is 100% Halal. Love the variety of flavors.”
“A few months ago, as a customer for years, I would have had to give it a lower rating due to the customer service. But recently they’ve hired awesome new staff, the food tastes better than ever, and I actually saw one of the workers wash his hands like 10 times in the few minutes I was there which I never saw before. Will be back ☺️”
“Second Cup Coffee on Stranded Drive in Barrhaven exceeded all expectations! The cappuccino with almond milk was superb, complemented perfectly by their delectable carrot cake and sandwich. The standout, however, was the exceptional service provided by the server. Friendly, attentive, and knowledgeable, they truly made the experience memorable. Five stars without a doubt!”
“I come here with my dad a lot and we absolutely love it. The owner is the absolute SWEETEST!! And the food is made with such love. Even if this place doesn’t necessarily seem fancy is a safe place where found memories will remain. Its quiet yet cozy and the nicest customers come here. I get the same thing everything, the shrimp vermicelli curry and it’s BOMB. Highly recommend this place, it’s stunning.”
“Tasty milk tea tons of flavors/kinds great experience. Super busy (I went on a weekend) but after ordering was maybe a minute or two before got my two drinks. Point is, it was fast delicious, little on the pricey side but I can't be the judge since I don't get Boba often but was overall a great experience .”

“Fantastic pizza ?We ordered Halal bacon, beef and halal "ham" like meet. It was so delicious ?Their dough and sauce are one of the very best I have ever had..Dietary restrictions: All the menu is 100% Halal. Love the variety of flavors.”
“S&S poutines never fail to impress! They are one of few spots that actually have great poutine in Ottawa that gets me going back every so often.Fries are always crispy and often even ones that have been covered in gravy. The curds are high quality and don’t melt immediately.As others have noted, they don’t heavily salt their poutine fries or gravy, which I actually prefer over extremely salty gravy. The gravy is nice and thick with a rich gooey consistency that prevents fries from immediately becoming soggy. I often ask for extra gravy layered in for a small extra charge, which lets me have abundant gravy for every bite of fry.”
“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+”

“Food was excellent. Good value for the money. Great service. But found it very noisy. Almost had to yell to make conversation. I think it's poor acoustics.”
“Nice place for coffee and treats. We ordered the carrot cake (delicious), creme brulee in a croissant which was fantastic and yes delicious as well, a mango bunny chocolate bunny. Had to try the macaroons as well. Everything was tasty. Service is fast and good at the same time. Great atmosphere with a welcoming vibe. There is lots of space and many tables to sit on.”

“I would like to salute the owner of Baklawa King for a job excellently done. The quality of everything offered whether deserts, food, coffee, or refreshments is excellent. His kibbeh, qatayef, and quality is that of a state of the art. His shop is spic and span in cleanliness and organization. One feels truly welcomed at Baklawa King thanks to the warm greetings and sincere courtesy of the team.”
“Everything was excellent. We came for my son’s birthday and they made him feel so special. The servers were very attentive, the food was great, and we really enjoyed our visit. We’ll be back to this location for sure. It was a nice atmosphere.”
“Consistently great place for decent seafood. Had an issue with the fish tacos (prepared with wrong shells that fell apart) and manager quickly remedied the situation.”
“Went to The Brew Table last night for the first time. Great atmosphere, service and food. Our server was Haley and she was really friendly and attentive. Tried some of the pizza and one of the chicken sandwiches. We will definitely be back!”
“No frills AYCE sushi spot with a self serve soup/salad/dessert + ice cream bar, iPad ordering system and robot servers. Bring cash for a 10% discount.The selection of fish and sushi was not huge at lunch time (no sashimi) and there were quite a few Korean and Chinese options tossed in. Quality is not bad at all: the tempura was fresh and crispy and not overly oily, the salmon rose roll were huge and fresh, handrolls were well made, and the kalbi was very juicy.Would do again!”
“Best Lone Star I’ve eaten at in the city. Food was amazing, fajitas meat was cooked to perfection. Staff was super friendly.Highly recommended this location. Reminded me of the original lone star way back in the early days.”
“Great for pool but food was really bad. I ordered chicken fingers but they were rancid like oil wasn't changed in the fryer for a long time. But it's a fun spot to hang out!”
“Beef sandwiches, mac & cheese, and potatoes are great - assuming you don't get a massive potato that is undercooked in the middle which only happened to us one time. However, EVERY TIME we order, they are missing something on our order. Every. Time.A side of mac is *tiny* just fyi, which is sad because it's soo good.I think it's a chain because online you can see that they sell pork but they don't at this location.”
“Denny's food is always lukewarm, and the whole atmosphere is tensed, desguised as something that should feel welcoming but that sends you mixed messages-- like the bland, old walls mirror your loneliness back at you as to say "why are you even here?". You're here because you hope, you hope that this time the pancakes will be warm again like in your souvenir distorted with time, some sort of fauxstalgia that you're left unsure where it even formed. It's a half-hearted stay; just like what the last months of my terminally ill past relationship felt.”
“I brought 6 of my friends over to this location and without a doubt it was the best experience ever. We all enjoyed the food and the service to the max. Kudos to Iman, such an amazing waitress. We would be coming back soon for sure.”
“My experience was really good. Couldn’t find better steamed momos anywhere to what I had here :) Loved their Manchurian fried rice.Little far from downtown but overall a nice restaurant in Ottawa.”
“This place is a hidden gem! I absolutely love them! But so does everyone else so be prepared to wait for their amazing sandwiches! (and trust me, it's worth the wait) My go-to obsession is the Candied Club which has chicken, candied bacon, cheese, veggies and jalapeno aoili on it. They have in-house made buns and for a long time I would get it on the white bun but I recently switched to the tomato wrap for a change and am loving that too. If you love pecan butter tarts then you'll have to grab one of those too! Also want to mention that the owners are awesome ❤️”
