Good service, and both food and drinks were quite excellent. Will definitely be returning again!I had a tagliatelle pasta dish, with added duck confit which just added extra decadence to the dish.

If you're looking for a romantic & sleek place to grab dinner or drinks, this is your place! The menu isn't huge, but in my opinion it makes the place even better because everything they offer is made to perfection. The cocktail list is delicious (I think I've tried them all!). Parking can be a little tricky, but that's like any restaurant downtown. Overall, 5 stars & would highly recommend.

Great atmosphere, friendly staff. Delicious cocktails. Love to chat with Chelsea and Sam ❤️

Excellent service and food. The staff were very helpful and attentive. Great beer list and the food was amazing. Would highly recommend this place to anyone.

Brunch tacos were SO good! I’ve previously come in for dinner and the charcuterie boards are by far the best in the city. Highly recommend!!

A top notch pub in downtown Ottawa. The service was very friendly and warm . The server made a real effort , introducing himself by name and remembering my entire table's names throughout. Good recommendations on beverages and foods which were spot on. Seems like a well-knit team that enjoys working here.The food was delicious also. the beef and squid dishes were tried and were outstanding. truly a 10/10.The vibe is great. Music was perfect for the cozy setting.Definitely a gem of a place in the downtown area!

Great find. Atmosphere outdoors was wonderful. Small but interesting menu. Drinks were unique and delicious. Fish and chips was good but nothing special. Pasta was homemade and very good, but again, not great. We enjoyed both but felt it should be better for the price. Server was wonderful and made excellent wine recommendations. Would return for drinks and to try the charcuterie board which looked fantastic.

Had the Moscow mule, spicy margarita and dark and stormy. Drinks were good. We also had the large charcuterie board. Everything on the board was delicious. Others at the table ordered the Margherita pizza and did not like it at all.

I went with my family and we all left feeling that we had one of the best dining experiences that we have ever had. The drinks, food and service were second to none, and we really enjoyed the friendly atmosphere. Sam and our waitress went out of their way to talk with us and my family can't wait to go again when they come back to Ottawa!

Not the largest selection of food, but a better selection of cocktails and wine. A bit chaotic with a bunch of waiters around, and even though everything took quite a long time, but all of them were friendly. I had gnocchi with duck and they were not similar to any gnocchi that I had before, mostly because of lack of traditional creamy sauce. The dish was still good though. Also had a glass of Malbec which was pretty good.
