Amazing lil place. We sat at the chefs table & Marc the chef was great. Def get the cheese board , octopus & meatballs ! Save room for 1 of the best desserts I've ever had: The salted caramel sundae !!!
The meatballs are to die for! Probably one of the smallest restaurants with seating in downtown Ottawa, you can forget about walk-in service. Make reservations at least a week in advance!
Ive been to many places to eat around the world but this place gave me the best service. Exceptional. Great menu & delicious bread . You wont regret making the trip to this excellent place.
Everything is tastey! Martinis are delicious and you can get an order of olives in spiced olive oil to go with it.
Called to make a late reservation , was surprised to find it almost completely booked ! Everything on their menu was fabulous and very tasty! Definitely worth coming back!!
This low-key restaurant is winning kudos for its locally sourced ingredients and regionally influenced menu. The setting is warm, intimate and welcoming, the perfect spot to relax. Read more
Amazing. Vqa wines are plentiful and affordable , dishes combine comfort and haute cuisine artfully with local and seasonal ingredients . Best meal in Ottawa so far.
Wonderful spot. Delicious food, friendly service , reasonable prices for the quality of the food. The ricotta meatballs and the panacotta are outstanding.
Stylish spot without the attitude. Super friendly service . Loved the grilled eggplant they make their own ricotta
Great date spot ! Make sure you have a reservation beforehand, walk-ins normally have a wait time of a couple of hours.
Kitchen is open until 22h and around the weekend even until 23h. Mondays are closed. But even if you come late you may want to double check if a table is available :-)
Brussel sprouts are excellent as is the burrata . Friendly service .
A short menu that is all good - try the romaine salad for a small but very tasty plate!
Small but beautiful spot that has great food and wine list !
Pork Chop is juicy and tender - great selection of wine . Good lunch spot .
Tomato tart is awesome. Crispy lamb is very amazing too!
the salad was too salty and they added to much vinegar to a point where no one can eat, the potatoes were nothing special at all and the meatballs "the star dish" was really really bad.. never again.
Meatballs are delicious. So was the beef !
The Risotto is very good, but surprisingly spicy
Delicious pasta !
Great local wines and awesome desserts
Everything is amazing, but I just enjoyed the stuffed chicken thighs
Great cuisine, especially the Tuna !
If there's a pasta with a ragu sauce on the menu, get it. I don't think you'll have any complaints about it.
If you're a fan of Oz Cafe 's steak and caesar, you have to try the ribs and potatoes !
Those meatballs though... Crave worthy!
Get the ricotta-filled meatballs ! ????
Not sure if I came on an off night but service was crap. Octopus dish was burnt (sent back, replacement good). Meatballs were delicious
Meatball was a little too salty
Dessert , cocktail and meatballs !
Lovely vibes !
Milk braised beef cheeks
Meatballs ,wine
