10. Absinthe

4 based on 742 reviews
Absinthe is a Restaurant where you can eat too much, drink too much, put your elbows on the table and laugh out loud... all at the same time and nobody cares. Absinthe is a restaurant of the people for the people.

I canât understand why Absinthe is rated the #1 French restaurant in Ottawa. A friend and I went recently and I we were totally underwhelmed. Right off the bat, the hostess was miserable and rude. I was told by phone they didnât take requests for specific tables, but if I arrived at opening at 5:30 I could have my choice of table. When I arrived the restaurant was empty and I asked for a window table, only to be told they were all reserved! Our waiter was pleasant but we didnât see much of him and had to summon him over a few times. The food was very average and the decor looks worn and the atmosphere is quite depressing. There was a big sign in the window saying âhelp wantedâ, which is usually a red flag. Iâll never go back. My name is Patrick Garland I am the Chef/Owner of Absinthe and I can assure you that no one that works here is rude or miserable...can't say the same for the people that anonymously make reviews online review...BTW El Dorado is a great place and so is Anthony's next door...you've made 2 reviews on TA and both are bad, what does that say about you.Happy Thanksgiving Patrick Garland Proud owner of Absinthe Cafe

Welcome to Aroma Small Plates and Wine. The first of its kind in Canada! Come and enjoy "Meze" the food that reflects the way of life in Greek culture. Meze...an eating style, ancient in origin, favored in Greece and the Mediterranean. It is where eating

The meze formula really worked for us, with a succession of small but beautifully cooked sharing dishes. What a good way to solve the all too common problem of 'super-size me' portions! It was very busy when I visited and service was a little slow, but very friendly and personal. We were impressed to be offered a complimentary extra dish when I ordered something my partner did not like.Although each dish is small, we found five dishes plus a desert was plenty enough for two.The absence of Musak was another plus.The only minor gripe I had was that the stark decor meant the restaurant room became rather noisy with conversation when it was full.

Our first experience of this type of restaurant and we liked it. Service was good and friendly and the food enjoyable - nice to do occasionally. Try it for the experience. Plenty of parking as it's in a small strip mall.

Restaurant is simple, food tasty, dissatisfied with schnitzel very thin not a big portion of meat. After ordering couple of drinks, appetizer, main course with bottle of wine, desert and coffee we end up spending over $200 + tip...way to expensive for this type of dining.Service was good. Air conditioner wasn't working at all , was hot at one point, we mentioned to our server and few minutes later was fixed.

Everything written on TA about this place is spot on. There is no direct parking but for the shipping mall across the street. The entrance is unassuming inconspicuous and uninspiring. Once you get past this, you will be overwhelmed by the friendliness, the menu and the taste of the food. Authentic, tasty, spicy Piri Piri chicken, great fries, salad, fish dishes. And oh so reasonable in price. Go! You will not be disappointed. Obrigado.Thanks
2. Le Baccara

Reviewed By Carlo M
Le Baccara is by far one on my favorite restaurants, and I go back really often.Offering an awesome atmosphere with delightful service and food, this 5 diamond restaurant is fully up to the category it has achieved.It's a very good place to go solo, in couple, with friends, or even for business dinners. I would not recommend going with children.Great value for the money... I know a lot more costly restaurants that do not get even close to what Le Baccara offers.I personally love ordering the "Seven-course", which is a tasting menu that I can assure can delight even the most exquisite taste buds.Getting to the restaurant may be a little awkward and noisy because you have to go through the casino, but, once there, the elegant and quiet environment make it really a special place.
