Absolutely outstanding lunch. Perfect for my wife’s birthday. She had the mussels, and my brother-in-law and I had the Halibut and chips. Everything was delicious and cooked to perfection. The service was outstanding, despite the restaurant being filled to capacity. And the prices were very reasonable. Highly recommended!

Not what it was. Went on Sunday at four, service good, seafood good. I had grilled shrimp and vegetables. Shrimp was good, eight on plate but vegetables consisted of two small heirloom carrots and one sprig of sweet broccoli, not my idea of vegetables. Meal not balanced, very disappointed. Had been two weeks prior, less shrimp but a good portion of vegetables well mixed. No consistency. Left hungry. Rest of table (4 altogether) had salmon, two with vegetables, and sweet potato fries, again vegetables same as mine. Dessert for two, two coffees, bill for four $212.55 with tip of $19.32. My food of shrimp and vegetables left me hungry, dessert $11.00 each, won't be going back, restaurant not same.

Two couples, three orders of fish and chips, one of the salmon fillet. Not a hint of a complaint. The salmon was done perfectly (my main). The staff is young, polite and attentive. (beware of the cutie with the brown eyes who loves to tease) Keep on cooking like that, guys, and you'll continue to be busy.

Best seafood quality and preparation you will ever find in Ottawa The calimari is to die for. The clam chowder is amazing.

Best fish and chips anywhere I've ever tried. Tony and Tina are great hosts and the staff is always incredibly friendly.

The best fish and chips in ottawa and it's not even close. Fish is fresh like they just fished it outta the water, fries are 9.5/10 texture (just gotta add salt or whatever you like) The service and speed is amazing and consistent. I've been 3 times, and every time they brought my food after 5-10mins of ordering. The first time I asked the waiter how long the food would take because I was in a rush, and she said it should take about 5 mins after taking our menus, but it wasn't. She lied. It took 4 mins. Will never get fish and chips anywhere else in Ottawa. Highly 10/10 recommend.

Poor management, arrogant and pretentious. Never been disrespected like that in any decent place.

Sadly we did not go during the height of the pandemic. There is always a too-close-for comfort line-up, no reservations taken. Last Friday even though I could see 4 empty tables, they still didn't seat those in line, many who were mobility impaired. Post-pandemic there were steep price increases. I get that places have to make up for lost revenues during the pandemic. BUT REALLY, now except for the fish and chips plate, most of the main courses are a la carte: add extra for vegetables, add extra for potatoes, even add extra to blacken the fish, even a charge to split a dish with a fellow dinner. I don't think I will return, despite my love for the paella and the boulliabasse.

We looked forward to taking out of town family here for what had been one of our favorites - fish & chips, as well as a few orders of fish & 1/2 chips / 1/2 salad. We were greeted by our waiter on the patio, with our drink order taken, followed by our menu selections. Drinks arrived, food arrived & then all downhill from there. The meals were warm not hot & unfortunately, the fish was quite greasy on this occasion. To add insult to injury, our waiter never returned & no one bothered to check on the food or drinks, offer coffee or dessert. A waitress going by cleared some of the table & we had to go inside the restaurant to find the waiter, retrieve the bill & go elsewhere for coffee & dessert. Not the same quality as we had enjoyed previously or just a really bad night!

Yes another super entitled waitress, not double-checking her order, before firing it to the kitchen. Lady is the mother who knows it all, but doesn’t have a clue how to offer a good and reliable service from the moment we sat down. And, worse yet, did her scene returning my tip, trying to shame myself. How outrageous?! Cynical and arrogant you have to be to call out a customer who paid 83 in a single bill, that you mistakenly pushed through? Just please watch out. This place has an awful person in the staff. Th food doesn’t even matter at this point.
