The guys in the open kitchen are, at the moment, performing some legitimate sorcery with a plate of grilled salt-roasted carrots laid on a bed of harissa yogurt, zucchini pesto and pistachio. I cannot even describe the flavour of this dish except in superlatives. It was one of the best things I have tasted in years; a stop-me-in-my-tracks, silence -inducing burst of sweet-laced, wood-smoke tinged umami. This is the kind of dish I know I will forever try to recreate but will never come close to. Other stuff on the menu is great too. But while they have them, get the f-ing carrots.

My partner wanted to try this place out for a while. I would recommend a reservation because we…read morewould always come and it was full. We got lucky today they had a table for 2 left in the corner. I took steak and eggs. It comes with a crispy egg but over easy...(very delicious) but I don't know how we call it. On top of the eggs you will find; onions, tomatoes, feta cheese and fried onion. Under all the goodness was sliced steak. ($28) the portion are good. Salade was made out of pomegranate, cucumber and radish. Not the highlight of my plate but good combination. My partner got the BLT he loved it. Because of the wait for our plated they gave us a complimentary dessert. Partner said it was delicious.

I've been here twice now in 2 years. Ambiance... Very nice…read more Clean and pleasing to the eye. Romantic and upscale. Lots of parking. Food... Good. Creative. Tasty. Short menu. Nice wine list. Service. Needs revamping. Really bad. We would have spent more and stayed longer had we been waited on by someone else. I won't even go into details but worst we had seen in decades. Will think twice about returning as it's not cheap but.... Would recommend to others for a nice meal in the far west if you want to take your chances.

I stopped by Chances R on my way to Montreal because I was looking for a breakfast restaurant…read more Looking at their menu it seems like they're more lunch and dinner oriented with about 5 breakfast options. I got the breakfast with meat and pancakes. Everything was good. Service was fast. It was a week before Christmas on a Thursday and the restaurant was packed. They gave us the last seat without a reservation. Overall a pleasant experience, my only complaint is that they only gave me 2 slices of bacon. I feel like that's not a lot. Everything else was great.

Thanks again, Sam! You're truly a professional!

I wasn't expecting this kinda setup as its a converted home from the looks of it. Not very accessible IMO as small steps and washrooms downstairs which due to being next to a fire exit the walk there was constant freezing breeze. First things kudos on a great beer list. I am not a fan of craft beers and appreciate when I see Belgian Beers on a menu. Good Stuff Here is a play by play Curdo hmm very bland and the texture had turned mushy. Beet salad was decent lots of ingredients that somehow went well together. Short Rib was OK. Now it doesn't take much to make this dish great. I enjoyed the sides more as found the meat to be dryer than it ought to be. Surprised as its hard to do that with short rib IMO. My fellow dinning companions enjoyed their main with the shrimp pasta getting a big thumbs up. Now for the service oh boy was it slow we are talking 30-45 min to get the apps with another 30 min to get the mains. I would give a half star bump for the beer selection so 3.5 stars all said and done.

BEST Indian restaurant if you want to eat Chilli Chicken. very authentic flavours - seriously took…read moreme back to India when i had the first spoon. Also they are seriously good at literally everything that is on their menu. we tried the andhra coconut chicken curry, I was expecting it be oily and greasy but to my surprise - it not only looked good but tasted amazing! their naans can be done better but who cares when the basics are right. Also, not to mention - we went back again the next day to fulfill the cravings that we might not be able to get in Toronto (i know right?! - still in the hunt of a best indian restaurant in Greater toronto area) Definitely suggest this place if you are craving Indian food in Ottawa! :)

We have a long day biking along the canal and just wanted something to hold us over as I was more…read morethirsty than hungry so we ordered a few dishes to share. I have to admit I am not a huge Indian food fan and we usually go with another couple who loves Indian food and let them order. Since we were on our own we tried different dishes. Had the fried fish appetizer (which I can't remember the name of) which was really good! The tandoori seemed a bit strong but when you had it when sauce it's out of this world! Ordered the tandoori chicken and was blown away by the presentation of the chicken. I am a big fan of crispy chicken skin but was amazed at the smoked flavor, crispness of the outside of the skinless chicken and then the tenderness of the chicken. Now I am wondering if I have been ordering Indian food wrong all my life or is this restaurant in Ottowa so exceptional? It was definitely exceriona The waitstaff was all very friendly and we enjoyed our conversations with them. I only wish we lived in Ottowa so we could come back and try more menu items!

Looks like they probably do some concerts since they have a nice stage set up in the back. Servers were really friendly getting us situated with our daughter and the wagon we use to transport her around. Very family friendly as we saw several other parents with strollers as well. Nice menu and a lot of good beer options. Opted to try their radler and it was delicious, before I remembered I'm not supposed to have grapefruit. The waitress was quick to get me a replacement Guinness. The food came out pretty quick. My wife got the Tuna Poke Wonton, which came out deconstructed I guess... actually ended up working out pretty well. It was quite good, but the poke wasn't nearly as fresh as what we are used to in California. My chicken burger was delicious, the cranberry and brie on it made me feel like thanksgiving. It was really hearty and heavy for a chicken burger, but worth it! The highlight might be the kids menu though. The kids can pick from 4 items Poutine, Fish & Chips, Burger & Fries, or Mac n Cheese. But, it comes with a drink and dessert. Clearly our daughter was on cloud 9 getting chocolate milk and ice cream included in her meal. Her poutine was quite good too, not too salty, nice gravy flavor and melty curds. If you're in the area this is a great stop for food or drinks or both.
