“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.“
“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.“
“This place was amazing. The staff made you feel at home and welcomed. The food was beyond my high expectations. They have a 4.9 star review and I see why. I would recommend this place to anyone who asked where to eat while in Ottawa. Superb!!“
“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“
“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!“
“Emma provided exceptional customer service during my visit. She was attentive, friendly, and went above and beyond to ensure my needs were met. Her professionalism and positive attitude made my experience truly enjoyable. I highly recommend her to anyone seeking top-notch service. Keep up the fantastic work, Emma!Plus great food lol“
“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.“
“Soo yummy! We tried everything on the menu (almost) and were impressed by everything! The brussle sprouts were a fan fave and both of our pasta entrees were lovely!! We also enjoyed the strawberry tiramisu and wow, sooo good!! Highly recommend, also cute tables!“
“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.“
“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.“
“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!“
“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.“
“I just had an amazing experience at this restaurant. They were able to give my wife and I a private table completely separate from other dining on short notice. The staff was very friendly and accommodating. They were very respectful of my pronouns and didn’t make any unnecessary assumptions. The prices were very fair for the environment and food. The food was so good I had to order multiple dishes because the menu was too amazing. They even have valet which was very convenient and they surprised me with a happy birthday dessert. I had an amazing experience here and I will be back very often forsure. I highly recommend this place to anyone that likes Italian food“
“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“
“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.“
“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.“
“From crispy fried calamari to heavenly pizza, pasta, each bite is a testament to the talented kitchen staff. Expertly cooked salmon and savory chicken dish was delectable. And for dessert, indulge in the delicious tartufo and tiramisu. With impeccable service and a cozy atmosphere, it's more than just a meal. Thank you!“
“I think this is the best restaurant in Barrhaven. Order here consistently. Portions are great. You can order direct which is nice. Sneaky the best pizza in town as well but don't miss the Chicken Parm or there other pasta dishes... Oh and garlic cheesebread!A real gem!“
“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!!“
“Great clean atmosphere with welcoming servers. Pizza is #1 in the area along with all the items on the menu.The one server with the peg leg, and the blonde wig is the best! With a slight limp and sometimes the wig turns sideways, she does well and gets the job done!Just remember! Duty then is the sublimest word in the English language. You should do your duty in all things. You can never do more, you should never wish to do less.“
“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.“
“The attention to detail in every aspect of the dining experience was truly remarkable. The ambiance was perfect for a romantic evening or a celebratory gathering with friends and family. The decor was elegant yet cozy, creating a charming ambiance that made us feel right at home.Now, let's talk about the food. Oh my goodness, where do I even begin? Each dish was a masterpiece, expertly crafted with the finest ingredients and bursting with flavour. It's clear that the chefs here are passionate about their craft and dedicated to delivering an unforgettable culinary experience.And let's not forget about the impeccable service. Our waiter was attentive, knowledgeable, and went above and beyond to ensure that our dining experience was nothing short of perfection. From helping us navigate the menu to recommending the perfect wine pairing, his expertise added an extra layer of enjoyment to our evening.In summary, this Italian restaurant is an absolute gem. Whether you're a food enthusiast looking for an exceptional dining experience or simply craving delicious Italian cuisine in a warm and inviting atmosphere, this place has it all. Trust me, you won't be disappointed. Five stars all the way!“
“Service was very slow. washrooms were terrible with pee all over the floor. Wait staff messed up our bill twice. Ended up being overcharged for a drink. Food was OK but nothing spectacular for the price I paid. The medium and medium/rare steaks looked the same. I was very disappointed for our evening out. I wouldn't recommend the Cambridge location.“
“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!“
“Another amazing evening at Babbo to celebrate my Mums 77th birthday. Allan and all the staff were so attentive to my Mum, she has dementia and sometimes bringing her out can be a challenge- she was truly beaming and had the best time! Thank you Babbo- for a very special evening!“
“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!“
“It was good but unfortunately not great. There wasn't any sausage for the Fusilli, so we opted for chicken instead. But it didn't work well with the dish. A recommendation from the staff would have been appreciated. The ravioli and fettuccine were good but not great. Very simplified flavors. Pricey for the depth of “
“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 .“
“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.“
“I am so so happy that we found this place. The food was fantastic, the service (by the owner who was all alone and serving) was wonderful and the atmosphere was on point. My husband and I stopped by the other day to celebrate my birthday and the owner was so kind and gracious, even bringing a piece of tiramisu to the table with a birthday candle.The owner was able to recommend an amazing wine and broke my streak of not being able to find a pinot noir that I liked. We ordered the antipasto and the prosciutto pizza and enjoyed every bite! I can't wait to come back here with family and friends, there is truly no end to the good things I can say about this place. I definitely recommend that you don't sleep on this place - you're missing out!To the owner: thank you for an amazing cap to a beautiful birthday. My husband and I enjoyed your stories, your recommendations, your food and your hospitality.“
“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.“
“Okay. I know I posted a lot since I’ve been in Ottawa, but I have to post about this restaurant. My daughter and I are halfway through our pasta and we have been sharing both pastas because it is so good. I love the vibe in here. Family owned. All the waitresses are so sweet. Service was quick. Food was quick and delicious. Some thing that doesn’t happen often. If you want to go and have Italian food, actually authentic Italian food, this is the place. This is a must visit in Ottawa. If this was in Hamilton, I’d be here every second day. Trust me, it’s worth coming here.“
“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.“
“We ate at Fratelli's last night for my birthday and had the most wonderful meal. It was packed on a Monday night which I loved, great ambiance. The food was stellar (order the tortelloni!) and the service was superb. We don't live anyway near Westboro but we made a special trip. I'm so glad we did!“
“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!“
“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.“
“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 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.“
“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.“
“I truly enjoyed the food at cafe mio. I ordered a gluten free vegetarian pasta and the plate was filled with high quality fresh veggies which was very impressive. I really enjoyed their approach at pasta as they do not add any heavy sauces or spices , they just stick to the basics and make it as healthy as possible. Also our waiter was delightful. She helped us out with the menu and was able to understand/accommodate my allergy. We were so full we did not get a chance to try the coffee but I will return at some point to do that!Dietary restrictions: Vegetarian and gluten free options available!Parking: After 5pm the street parking is free and there is plenty!“
“First time trying their pizza. Arrived right when it was hot out of the oven. The crust is excellent. I just went with a cheese pizza which was pretty good, but the sauce needs a little kick to it. Service was friendly when I came for my pickup. Thank you.“
“Overall a great pub in Ottawa's little Italy. Awesome selection of beer. We were there with a large group and the waitresses were on top of everyone's orders. My only negative is, it was a little small for a large group, but that said, it was still a good experience overall.Parking: It's a busy area so it may be a short walk from the restaurant.“
“The very best!! This is my favourite restaurant in Ottawa. The food is always fresh, homemade and amazing! The staff is great and Pietro, the owner of the restaurant, works incredibly hard. His hard work and dedication shows in how good his restaurant is. I am beyond lucky to live in this town to be able to go to Del Piacere. I highly recommend this restaurant for anyone wanting fantastic authentic Italian food. I have recommended this place to friends and they all loved it!“
“Amazing Italian food from pasta, salad, panni to desserts - all incredibly delicious! This cafe style restaurant with its friendly and wonderful service has become a favorite lunch spot for our office. They also offer a gluten free pasta option.“
“Excellent experience at Zolas. I have Celiac disease and after reading the reviews on the Find me Gluten free app, I decided to give it a try. They did not disappoint. Our server was very welcoming and knowledgeable of the risks. She helped me with the menu and reassured me about crossed contamination. The food was excellent! The atmosphere is very cozy and comfortable. We will return and tell our friends!“
“The quickest and tastiest Filipino food in Ottawa. Prices are affordable and it’s best if you go during lunch, when the food is most fresh and there’s an abundance of variety! If you have a sweet tooth, go for the Halo Halo. You won’t regret it :)“
“Ordered online at like 3 am on a saturday night. Food came hot, well priced, and the chicken parm sandwich had absolutely no business being that good! The sauce was amazing, and the chicken crispy, bun toasted and high quality. Love this place! The calzones are also great when I come.... To nitpick, fries could use a bit more salt, but aside from that 5/5, delicious.“
“The Grand Pizzeria and Bar is an underrated spot that combines tradition with innovation. Making it the perfect spot for a casual lunch, or a lively night out with friends. Whether you're craving a classic Margherita pizza adorned with fresh basil and creamy mozzarella or feeling adventurous and opting for a specialty pie topped with unconventional yet delightful ingredients, each bite is a testament to the restaurant's commitment to quality and creativity.“
“The food is exceptional. You won't find better Italian food. We shared escargot, I had Cannelloni, my hubby had veal Parmigiano. My sister had filet mignon, my sister-in-law had smelts. The range is impressive. I didn't have room for dessert, in fact I brought some home.It was a birthday celebration, and we were unable to bring in our own sugar free cake (2 bdays, same day, both diabetic) so that's my only regret.Great server. Nick! A wonderful night. We had a party of 8 and unfortunately unless you were in the middle you couldn't communicate with others, it's very loud. We have been there before and will be again. Thank you!“
