The addition of dad's root beer on the menu was also really good alongside oysters, which had a great mignonette sauce to pair with. Then finally, while the shroom burger wasn't perfect (it was messy) it was so packed with flavour that I would happily get it again! Additionally, I've been told the gluten-free batter and tartar sauce are TOP TIER!

Since we're not locals in the area, we opted for the poutine then my daughter opted for the fish taco. Her food was actually good but rather a very small serving. Either that, or we're used to American-sized servings. The poutine we had was the seafood type since we figured out, they should have amazing seafood since we're near water. Flavor-wise, I think they needed more. The sauce that came with it did not seem to give justice to the dish. Nice location though. And service was good. Food, unfortunately, felt short of my expectations.

The first visit the restaurant was crowded and busy with two large parties (both very lively and friendly). This visit was quiet with about four tables occupied with sit down guests. There seemed to be a lot of pick up orders as quite a few people came in for food and left. The restaurant is very clean with lots of light coming in from the window and doors. It's a casual setting but you could dress up and still feel comfortable. I will definitely go back to this restaurant on my future visits to Ottawa.

Bonus points for being the only bar in town serving Guinness, which honestly sets it apart. Great place to grab a drink, watch a game, and hang out. Would definitely stop by again.

There were other dishes ordered and everyone said it was fantastic. Lots of beer choices and other non alcoholic beverages. I highly recommend Finnigans for lunch.

It was a shrimp risotto with corn and pumpkin seeds. I wasn't sure how it would go together when I ordered it but I trusted the chef and I wasn't disappointed!

However I didn't find it very flavourful. Think I should have went with a tartare instead. The sauce was very light even if I put all of it. The star of the night was the lobster poutine. Price depends on the market I believe it was 75 for the small one. Its a good size. I did not try the lobster but I did try my partner's poutine. The sauce was really good not your typical brown sauce, It was creamier. I enjoyed it a lot. It was not too busy Sunday night but my friend told me it was full the last time she had been (maybe a Saturday). They have a little store connected. Lots of different fish to try I got some soup to go.
