We lived in the area many years ago. Everytime we visited, Garzanelli's was a must. It's been a few…read moreyears since we've been in. Our visit was so disappointing. They used to have this unique pizza. I have been anticipating having that. Well, they changed it. Meat sauce, crust and cheese were all different. Next the fried chicken. It was the best in area. But not this time. It was so dry. They also changed the American fries. They used to be sliced and fried with onions. Now they're generic cubed and boring. We also ordered a filet. Too bad it wasn't a filet. You could barely cut through it. Not sure what cut of meat they served, but it wasn't a filet. The one thing that was still delicious was the garlic salad. Garzanelli's is a fixture in the community. It's been there forever. Even though it's had three different owners, it has always been consistent. Until now. PLEASE do better!

I quite enjoyed it. We had a really good server (so sad I forgot to get her name). The mozzarella cheese sticks were very hot and cheesy also. It is a bit dark in the interior of this place and is not my first choice for dining. But it was still a great dinner and I would get the mini pizza again.

A big variety of food. The specials are interesting. I chose the cheese ravioli special with wild mushrooms. Friend had marinara pasta with sausage. We had a starter the cheese burrata and the prosciutto on the side. The cheese was soooooo good. Vanessa went out of her way to make us happy. We had to send the pasta back as it was too spicy for my friend. They remade it and it was perfect for her. I had a blanc de blanc champagne but there was no fizz and the waitress happily got me a different sparkling. I loved the ravioli. Great ambiance. Highly recommend.

New Italian restaurant in Ottawa in the 100 block of W Main Street…read more Reservations are two days in advance but the walk up on a Saturday was about a 45 (and that's a long estimate) minute wait at the great bar !! Started off with some great draft beers $5 for a Yungling pint and an $18 bourbon flight that my husband raved about. After a bit of a wait but with drinks !! We got a table and since we had looked at the menu at the bar we were ready to order. (You could order food at the bar too we just chose not to as we were in no rush) We got a loaf of fresh bread that came with olive oil for dipping that had some chili flakes in it that gave it a bit of a zing. (My only thing is that it would have been nice to have some Parmesan to shake into it to give it a bit of body beyond just oil). But all in all it was yummy. Onto our main courses. I got the shrimp and calamari Diablo. And yes. It's hot. Spicy and also temperature from the kitchen. But the flavor was amazing and it was full of calamari rings and the little tentacles and some really good sized shrimps too and the linguini was so good. The sauce you could tell was fresh and full of tomato chunks. The husband got chicken shrimp and sausage carbonara. Again full of flavor and meat and peas and delicious pasta. Oh and dessert was two home made cannoli with the pistachios on the ends and the best not too sweet cream inside. For our two meals and two glasses of house red blend ($5 each) it was 80.00. It was plenty of food to make two fat kids very happy. The servers were very nice. The bartenders were friendly as they were super hopping. All in all we will Be back to try more dishes as they all looked great coming out of the kitchen. This is a great date night spot and something new and different than your normal burger, pizza or bar food kinda place. Try it. You will want to come back !!!
