Your choices are salads and sandwiches, you answer a couple of questions, and presto, a few minutes later, you have your order. I chose meat as my protein option for my salad, and it was warm and plentiful, with a creamy, tasty, dressing. The paper bowl was deceptive in how many greens were underneath. I could see this being a great place for a quick, healthy lunch or dinner if you lived or worked locally.

The Chopped Leaf is a Canadian chain from out west and this location at Trainyards is the first in…read moreOttawa. It just opened a few weeks ago. I was really excited to see more healthy food options in the area and stopped by for lunch recently. Overall it was satisfactory, but I personally was not wowed. The concept is similar to Freshii (another chain that does not wow me). They have set salads, sandwiches, bowls, etc. or you can build your own. Ingredients are pre-prepped, but your meal is assembled when you order it. The thing about places with this kind of set up is that I feel that they need something that sets them apart from similar places, and something that makes their salads more special than me just making my own salad at home. For example, Copper Branch has their carrot keftedes and shiitake teriyaki, and the local Pi-Rho Grill marinades and cooks their own meats which have a Mediterranean flair. I can't easily re-create these items at home. However, I feel that I can easily re-create what I had at The Chopped Leaf. I ordered the full sized Spa Salad ($9.25) and added grilled chicken ($3.25) = $12.50. The Spa Salad was mixed greens, grape tomatoes, chickpeas, dried cranberries, and walnuts. The menu said that it was supposed to contain carrots, but I actually received cucumbers instead. Not a big deal, but I had not asked for the substitution. The default dressing was a balsamic dressing, which I asked for on the side and it arrived as requested. The salad came with a single small pita chip. The chicken was lean chicken breast, and to my taste buds, similar to the chicken breast strips they use at Domino's pizza or Subway Sandwiches (or Maple Leaf Prime, Lilydale, Ziggy's, or President's Choice Chicken Breast Strips you'd find at the grocery store). Not deli meat, but still somewhat processed. Thankfully, it was better than the spongy chicken I've had at Freshii. I was also disappointed that I found some wilted leaves in the salad and one piece that was slimy and had began to liquify (see picture). The salad was the sum of its parts. I feel that I could have made it at home. I suppose that perhaps some of their other salad dressings are more unique and maybe those dressings set them apart. Service was friendly. The manager/owner (?) even came over and asked me how I was enjoying my salad, which I thought was a nice gesture. I had just started eating and it was before I found the wilted lettuce. The place is brand spanking new and looks modern and clean. I feel that this place is for people who want healthy foods, and want the convenience of not having to make it themselves. When I eat out, I personally am looking for food that I can't easily make at home, so for this reason I was not thrilled by this place. It is not my kind of place, but may appeal to others. The restaurant is next to Great Hobbies, near Scores Rotisserie. There's lots of free parking.

This place is in the Rideau Centre food court. I had lunch here recently. I wanted the Bacon…read moreLobster salad but was told they didn't have anymore lobster. Then I wanted the Taco Shrimp salad but was told they didn't have any shrimp either. For real? So I ended up getting the Cobb salad, which was $10.50, and contained spring mix, grilled chicken, bacon bits, avocado, grape tomatoes, and chopped egg. It usually comes with your choice of blue cheese or ranch dressing, but to the dismay of Cobb Salad purists I opted for the balsamic vinaigrette instead. You can get a free little piece of bread with your salad. The ingredients were fresh. I felt that there wasn't very much chicken in it though. However there was a lot of egg. I think there must have been like 2 eggs in there. I really liked the balsamic dressing. It was tangy yet smooth. The spring mix was a true spring mix, not mostly romaine with some token leaves of other greens like some places. Overall the salad was good, but I felt it was overpriced, and it didn't have anything really special about it. However, it was one of the few healthy choices available in the food court.

We had come here as we were staying in the area from out-of-town, and wanted to try the food, as we…read morehad read excellent reviews. We were happy that we did decide to give this place a try, as it was everything that we had expected, and more! When we walked-in, we were greeted by a young man, that asked if we wanted take-out or dine-in. We chose dine-in however, the restaurant was quite busy at the time so, we had to be seated at a table near the front entrance. Upon sitting, we noticed the iPad that was on the table for ordering. We were also given paper menus to look at, which was easier. Once we had placed our orders, we waited only about ten minutes for our salads to arrive, along with the hummus and pita bread. The salads were absolutely amazing; the bowls were filled to the brim with cucumbers, tomatoes, lettuce, olives, and feta cheese. All of the ingredients were fresh and tasty, and that dressing, WOW; it was delicious! It tied the salad in so well, it was the best salad we had ever tried at a Greek restaurant. The hummus was also delicious, with heated-up pita bread creating the finishing touches. This hummus was definitely homemade, and marvellous! We even asked for an additional pita, as the one we had wasn't enough for the four of us. This appetizer was definitely a great start! Once our main meals arrived, we were pleasantly surprised at how large the portions were. And the homemade sauce on top of the rice was wonderful; I don't know how they made the sauce, but it was perfect with the rice. The chicken was tender, with the tzatziki sauce not being needed often due to the tenderness. The potatoes were huge, and deliciously spiced. The meal was massive, and we couldn't finish it all; definitely worth what we had paid for! Throughout the entire meal, the server checked on us, bringing us water when we had asked, and making sure we were well taken care of. As we were leaving, the owner/chef asked where we were visiting from, and if we enjoyed the food. This place was hands-down the best Greek restaurant that we've ever been to; down to earth family-owned, amazing food, and great hospitality. Will definitely be back, and would recommend that you all try it as well; you won't be disappointed!

It's located in a small strip and sometimes it takes time to find parking but not bad at all. The food is really good and fresh... You can feel the flavor of the marination and cook in the grill.

The atmosphere is simple but practical and confortable. I've been here 3 times and I think I will go back everytime I come back to Ottawa.

I usually get a latte there but decided on a regular one, that was a mistake. Their food did taste good, and their chutney was still delicious but the service was a bit gruff. They weren't rude by any means but I was ignored for 10 mins just waiting to ask for a takeout box. I could tell he was a bit overwhelmed and probably having an off morning, so I didn't take it personally. But when I'm paying $30 for one breakfast bowl and a coffee, I'd expect more than 2 cherry tomatoes cut in half and a few mushrooms in it. The food is delicious but you're definitely overpaying and 50/50 on the coffee lol

In search for weekend brunch this place came up we thought of trying it out. Parking in streets is…read morenot existent. Had really look at side streets a bit far to get one. All the nearby spots are reserved for the apartment dwellers in the building. Ordered a Huevo Ranchero ($16) - which came with scrambled eggs two corn tortillas with salsa, cheese, sour cream and a side order of fries. The eggs could have used some seasoning even with salsa it needed something extra A Vegan Breakfast Bowl ($14) - a mixture of tofu, spinach, mushrooms and tomato chutney - which somehow tasted to all 4 of us like onion chutney. The vegetables done good, but tofu again had just no flavour. Tofu had a spice rub all over, but it tasted like plain tofu. The Bacun strips were rice paper rolls with some attempted flavours but none came through. And two Vegan Bennies ($16) - a super grainy slice of bread topped with the same tofu, green onions, Bacun and some red pepper strips (NOT Coulis as described in the menu). If some person was having a tofu dish for the first time I think they would describe tofu as no flavour at all. We vegans know that you can do amazing things with Tofu. The home fries in the above dishes was the best - now that we could give 5 out 5. All of us had to go and get Sriracha and Ketchup from the counter to rescue the dishes. Coffee was too weak as well. When you go in and order on the counter and you get food delivered to your table. Should the restaurant still offer to tip on the machine BEFORE even we were served? The order did take a long time, the table not clean when we sat, no condiments on the table and coffee refills slow. An extra star for giving tons of vegan options

I love to eat vegetarian as much as possible and this place has many tasty options. Lots of salads, vegetables, healthy options and some vegetarian junk food. They charge by weight and I found the price to be quite reasonable (cost around 30$ for two people and it was a ton of food). Desserts are a bit on the pricier side and we didn't try any this time. They also do takeout at a slightly discounted price! Will definitely be returning here!

The variety of offerings was exceptional, all well prepared, all nicely seasoned. It does get a bit crowded near the food stands during busy times. Bonus points for refrigerated take-home portions of their entrees. I wish I had seen that tap water was available at all tables before checking out. But if you want a chilled beverage with your meal, your best option is something from the refrigerated case. Had I discovered this place sooner during my stay, I probably would have been here more often.
