Personally, Stella Luna is a bit overrated for me. The hype just isn't matching the price point,…read moreand I expected a lot more considering their reputation. I tried the chocolate cake and the icing just didn't hit the way it should've for a shop that's so well-known, it looked great but the flavour wasn't what I was hoping for. I also tried their cannoli. It wasn't bad at all, but there's definitely room for improvement. The filling was decent, but I found myself wanting a bit more richness and that classic creamy punch you usually get from a great cannoli. The shell had a nice crunch, but overall it just didn't wow me the way I expected. The place itself is cute and the display looks amazing, but for the price, I thought the desserts would stand out more. I'd maybe give it another chance, but it wasn't the mind-blowing experience everyone talks about.

The inside of…read morethe store has super cute vibrant decor - perfect for a fun night out or just a place to grab a bite while playing board games with friends. They have a stack of board games in the store, along with an arcade and a PS5 (although you have to pay extra to play on the PS5, everything else is free to use). The staff were nice, and the food didn't take too long to arrive. Personally, I found the Rocky Road waffle to be delicious, and it tasted like s'mores to me which just made it even more delicious. The milkshakes were good, and so was the lotus crepe, but nothing special. There's a reserved parking for Choc-o-La customers only, which made it easier to find a spot to park. For reference, the Rocky road waffle was $17, the Lotus crepe was $16, the green tea was $3, and the Oreo milkshake was $10 (not including tax).

This is my family's go-to brunch spot and we cannot recommend this place enough. Everything from…read moretheir AMAZING service to the quality of their food and coffees are perfect. It's a family run business and everyone is always super nice! Every time we go - not even an exaggeration- they always serve guests with the brightest smile. They're so thoughtful and caring and really make you want to come here just for the interactions. Also, can I just say- for some reason, it's always so hard to find GOOD quality black coffee that's not sour and that the portions are fair for its price. LUNA HANDS DOWN has one of the best coffees in Ottawa and the portion size is 10/10. There's also lots of seating with a comfortable sitting environment and it's not too loud even during rush hours during lunch time. They have patios opened during summer, very cozy!

Breakfast was amazing, service was terrific. Would definitely recommend and we will be back.read more

Nana Egg Bubbles is located inside the Green Fresh Supermarket. They are one of the few places in…read moreOttawa that sells bubble waffles. For Ottawa I will give it 4 stars, but in Toronto (my hometown) it would be 3 stars, since it's smaller than bubble waffles in Toronto and it's more cake-like than fluffy waffle-like. I got 4 bubble waffles to share with my parents: 2 sweet and 2 savoury. I got the original batter for all 4 ($4.99 each) but they also have chocolate or matcha batter ($5.49). I got taro filling for one (additional $1), red bean filling for one (additional $1), seaweed and pork floss for one (additional $1.50) and for the last one I got ham and cheese (additional $1.50 for the ham and another additional $1.50 for the cheese). If you buy 2 or more, you get a 10% discount, which I did. My receipt said Oreo instead of Red Bean, but they are the same price, so no big deal, and I received red bean like I ordered. The waffle itself, like I mentioned earlier was more cakey and less waffle-y, lol. Also not all bubbles had fillings. The taro one was most generous with the fillings. And I did not feel like an extra $3 was worth it for the ham and cheese as there was very little filling. There was also very little filling for the seaweed and pork floss one. The waffles are made to order, so they are fresh and hot when you get them. Staff were friendly. It's kind of slim pickings for bubble waffles in Ottawa, and this place has free parking, so it satisfies my bubble waffle cravings and it's convenient. So I am rating accordingly ;)

Located in the Byward Market this charming little dessert shop specializes in croffles (croissant +…read morewaffle hybrid). This was my first time having a croffle, but as a croissant lover, I definitely enjoyed this more than a regular waffle since it had that flaky texture of a croissant. The croffles were a treat to have, and made fresh after you place your order so it's still warm when it gets served. There are a number of flavors/toppings to choose from, and a few simple drink options (water, tea, coffee, pop) . We ordered the Strawberry and Buenos flavours. The person behind the counter was friendly, and the interior was quite cute with its black tables and chairs, and pink walls.

The Hubby brought me home a Nutella croffle and it was DELICIOUS. I've never had anything like this…read morebefore. The bottom was crispy and caramelized with tons of Nutella drizzled on top. When he showed me what he got me, I put my nose up to it and said "just a waffle" This is not just a waffle , it's croissant pastry baked in a waffle iron, which takes it to a whole other level in the dessert game. By the time I devoured it, it was cold, but I think I prefer it this way. Def going to make a stop in when I'm in the area.

This is an awesome crepe waffle shop that does more than just that…read more They have savory and sweet crepes. We enjoyed a chicken pesto and a Nutella strawberry crepe and both were divine. The crepe was perfect, thick but not too thick, and delicious. The fillings were spot on, no skimping on ingredients. They were also made with care as we watched them be made from the bar seating. I was offered a Turkish coffee as a gift and It was also delicious and served with a small chocolate. I was apparently not expected to pay but I gave the man a tip to cover It and he was so kind. It seemed to be operated by a family and the care they were putting into their operation shows and you can feel It. If you park in the mall, it's right by an entrance. It's small but the love in the food is great. They also had drinks and The Cheesecake Factory cheesecake slices available. We will likely be back!

I look back at the next several stops that I made after shopping at Crocs and having consumed a…read morebunch of carbs at a wonton and noodle eatery. It looks like I went on an eating spree! I originally wanted a drink. I was in front of Cacao 70. I had never been to any of its franchises in my life. It was time to check this one out. This dessert place is next to a plant store. Deadly for someone who loves plants and chocolate. I was immediately greeted by a young man. He said to sit anywhere that I'd like. I chose a table with four chairs. My bag with my new pair of Crocs occupied one of them with my purse. I sat down and got menus from the man. There were a couple of men, it looked like a dad-son duo, sitting by the window. They ordered a bit ahead of me and pretty much wolfed down everything. I asked for water. I got cold water in a glass carafe, along with a glass. This water alone hit the spot. I ordered an iced mocha from the menu first. It's a mom-son duo running the show. They speak Cantonese. I overheard their conversation attempting to secure a used stove over the phone. What caught my attention on the menu was doing a fondue for one. Although I wasn't dying to eat anything, dessert time with fruit seemed perfect. I chose dark chocolate as my classic chocolate fondue. The dunkable items that accompanied the fondue consisted of chocolate brownie bites, classic waffle bites, and fruit (bananas, strawberries, and pineapple). The iced mocha was awesome. I heard it being blended in the kitchen before it came to me. It was cold, and had the best balance of coffee and chocolate flavours. It does have dairy in it. I thoroughly enjoyed having a fondue hour on a Thursday afternoon. The fruit was fresh and the perfect size to dunk into the dark chocolate. The sheen on the dark chocolate was impressive. This place does chocolate fondue superbly. There is something zen about dunking fruit and other goodies into dark chocolate with a fondue fork and indulging in each coated morsel. The dark chocolate was perfect. It wasn't bitter. It wasn't sugary. It was exactly how I like dark chocolate, but in fondue form. The chocolate brownie bites made you feel like this fondue experience was fancy. Chocolate on chocolate on chocolate. The bites had a crispy exterior that held the softer interior together as you dunked it into the fondue. So good! The waffle bites were equally as cool. It was like having chocolate waffles, but better and without any maple syrup or whipped cream. I paid at the counter with a credit card. It also allowed me to tip. I let the man know that everything was delicious, which he appreciated. This place didn't have air conditioning, but cool air did circulate well. There was a fly around, which was the only annoying part of the experience. I used the washroom before I left. It was a single stall that was clean. It's to the left of the counter when you walk up to it. I loved being here. I really should visit Cacao 70 more often. I'm so glad that my first experience at one was in Ottawa. (314)

He also made the most amazing iced tea drink I've ever had, I'll have to return to get another one sometime soon!! The restaurant was lit with low, warm lighting (which I always appreciate) and not too densely packed. It wasn't busy when we visited despite being a Friday evening, so it wasn't too loud at all. Great decor, with wacky paintings that Jamil was able to tell us about. Amazing service and yummy food, though absolutely a bit pricey. Also, the bathroom is located downstairs and there are a couple other steps within the restaurant so I'm not sure that it would be fully accessible, though perhaps sitting on the patio would be possible for anyone with mobility issues. Overall, would recommend for anyone looking for a fun meal and slightly eccentric vibes.
