    Great place for breakfast, lunch, yummy food, friendly people, working lunch. No shortcuts in food prep that upset this sensitive stomach.

    I had the eggs Benedict with skillet potatoes and it's been the best meal I've eaten in days.

    What? Haven't I reviewed this fabulous coffee shop, yet??! How can that be?? Ritual opened up…read moreduring the pandemic, on November 27, 2021, in an antique building that used to house the Historic Green's Hotel, on Stittsville Main St., between Abbott and the Trans Canada Trail. When trains still serviced Stittsville (running on tracks that ran along what is now the TCT), instead of all the cars we have now, there was a stop here, in Ottawa's true west end. This location is imbued with history! I love it when an old space is rejuvenated . Too that all off with fabulous coffees and good cafe food, and we have a winner here!! I do have to admit that it does get busy, and especially with special rules due to the pandemic, it can fill up pretty quickly. We like to go during the day on the weekend, but we don't like to line up outside the building to get our fix. They've only been open less than a month and already they're that busy! We like to go evenings as well. The best service is when the owner, Chi, is here. The staff is fairly young and trendy and still learning the ropes. Welcome to Stittsville!!

For tea, they don't have loose leaf which definitely diminishes the quality which they provide. I like that it's in a neighborhood and locally owned, but the shop itself is just OK.

The cafe is adorable with a lovely fireplace but even better is the healthy, unique menu which includes smoothies, juices, desserts, and entrees. Since we had recently eaten breakfast we got a juice, smoothie, stuffed grapefruit, and yogurt/granola bowl. Everything was delicious. Hope we can time a stop here on our travels back through the area.

Beautifully decorated with a vintage vibe and lots of shabby-chic pieces. They seem extremely popular and busy even mid-afternoon; jammed-packed the whole time we were there and with a waiting line-up for a table. Gentleman who seemed to be the owner or manager was extremely pleasant and went above and beyond to find us a table quickly (even moving chairs around) after Cousin and I explained that Boyfriend (who was outside parking the car) would never wait for the 30 min announced at first. All the staff there seemed very nice, fast, constantly cleaning, arranging seating, serving, etc. We only had coffees (which were fine but nothing mind blowing) so I cannot judge on the menu. Would recommend this place though, if only for the super hardworking staff!

There were two employees, so the wait time was considerable. Hopefully, the next time will it will be quicker customer service. The food was good my friend had crêpes she enjoyed them. My other friend had chicken curry wrap. She enjoyed it. My daughter had prepared baked goods, lattes, which we liked.. all in all a good experience but little bit loud as it was so busy, some nice background music would help balance out the noisiness from other customers.

    I had dinner at Blue Diamond with my husband and our friends (another couple). Overall, I thought…read morethe food was ok. The curries were very flavourful, but mine was too oily for my liking, and I found the rice was dry. I originally ordered the chicken tandoori, but our server, who was also the owner, advised me that it was more of an appetizer (even though it was $15, and not listed under appetizers), and suggested the Chicken Tikka Masala ($16) instead, so I went with his recommendation. I also ordered peas rice ($5). My husband got the Lamb Vindaloo ($18) and was going to share my peas rice, but the owner recommended that he get his own rice, and so he ordered the naan ($2.50), but we ended up receiving and being charged for the upgraded garlic naan ($3) and an order of plain rice ($4) for husband. We had way too much rice with the 2 orders. We didn't complain because we thought maybe the owner misunderstood, and we didn't make ourselves clear enough. However, I do have the feeling that we were "upsold" so the bill would run higher. Our friends also received twice the amount of rice that they thought they ordered (and of course they were charged for what they received). They ordered the Chicken Korma ($15), the Lamb Curry ($18), Garlic Naan ($3) and one order of plain rice ($4), but they got 2 orders of rice ($8) in addition to everything else they ordered. The Chicken Tikka Masala was really flavourful and I liked that the chicken was large chunks of boneless breast meat. It was not spicy. I found it too oily for my liking though. The Lamb Vindaloo was less oily, and had large chunks of lean boneless lamb. I liked that the lamb didn't taste gamey. The Vindaloo sauce was very spicy and flavourful. Both the plain rice and the peas rice were very dry. The peas rice was just plain rice speckled with a few green peas. When the curry sauces were added to the rice, it tasted better, but I didn't like the rice on its own. However, I did enjoy the garlic naan. It was hot and crispy on the outside and soft on the inside with the right amount of chewiness. It was garlicky too. Service was ok, but not all that friendly. One of our friends had to ask twice for water. They have 2 pool tables and they are $1 a play, which is pretty good. They also have a jukebox. The owner and chef are Indian and so their specialty is Indian food, but they also serve regular pub food like wraps, burgers and poutine. They also have some fusion items like butter chicken poutine, and tandoori chicken wrap. The restaurant is located in a strip mall and there's lots of free parking.

    Update: my previous concern of pricing may have been premature, as I'm pretty sure that most…read morerestaurants have increased prices during the pandemic. Furthermore, we've since tried some other Indian restaurants that were equally priced with equal or smaller servings, but nowhere near the same depth of flavours. In fact, one of the most popular Indian restaurants in West Ottawa in Britannia charges $5-7 more per dish. Not certain the size because they are currently closed until further notice. Just be aware that for 3 or 4 dishes plus bread and an appetizer for two people, expect to pay $100 all in here.... but you'll each get three good meals out of it. Still the best I've found within range of Kanata-Stittsville.
