This place came highly recommended. Now I were to rate them…read morejust on apps they would be a 4 star. The main fish was just OK and the pasta being overly oily. The scallop crudo being on best app IMO. The tuna was OK and so was the welk which surprised me as being a menu item. Service is decent but being priced at this level I think 3.5 stars as the mains didn't do it for moi.

We had to book our reservation 3 weeks in advance because of the time slot, and the day. Saturday…read moreat 530. I guess itsya popular time to eat! 3 weeks was worth the wait, as the anticipation of what we were about to enjoy grew stronger. Bread to start, with whipped butter. Hot from the oven. Soft, pillows of carb goodness, with a touch of salt. We started with the TOMATOES WITH FIOR DI LATTE AND RICOTTA STUFFED ZUCCHINI BLOSSOMS which was devine. My main was the ROASTED RAINBOW TROUT WITH BOILED POTATOES, PASTIS HOLLANDAISE AND SEA ASPARAGUS and hers was SWEET CORN AGNOLOTTI WITH BUTTER, PECORINO AND JALAPEÑO. Both dishes were faultless. We finished with Eton Mess with meringue, whipped cream and stewed rhubarb for dessert. It looks like a LOT, but the meringue is mostly air, so we tackled it with ease. And, it wasn't as sweet as expected. Americano to cleanse the palate. Fortunately, we found a parking spot right around the corner, so our full bellies didn't have to go too far.

On our way to Ottawa, Pooh and I stopped here for breakfast…read more It's a big place with three floors and TV screens surrounding us Service was quick and friendly. We started off with coffee Pooh ordered the breakfast gourmand and I ordered the breakfast burrito. My burrito was delicious. The eggs were cooked to perfection and the condiments were generous.

This was one of my favourite breakfasts on my Ottawa trip. The location is out of downtown and away…read morefrom Bank Street, so parking was easier to find in a very nice area with lots of cute little businesses. The inside is so cute. I really wish I'd gotten a photo of the little waiting area. They have all these colourful couches and lamps. It's like a little parlour. The spot is just so cozy. I even had to take a picture of the walls where the downstairs washrooms are located. They had gorgeous sunflowers painted all over them. The service is every bit as good as the food. The mimosas are worth it, lots of bubbles (some places really skimp, not Chesterfield's). They have many gluten-free options, which always makes me feel like I can eat like everyone else. I ordered the Bird's Nest Benny. The eggs were the most perfectly poached I've ever had at a restaurant. A side came with the benny, and I got the baked beans. The food was absolutely delicious. Potatoes, eggs, bacon, and maple-lime hollandaise that was to die for. There was so much food. Impossible to walk away hungry. Service was perfect as well. His name wasn't on the receipt, but he treated me like I was just as important as the group diners. No solo diner curse here. Cute spot, very clean, perfect service and food with quality ingredients. I will definitely stop in when I'm in Ottawa again.

What a cool little store in Sandy Hill. They sell groceries and prepared foods…read more I was browsing UberEats and saw that they had a burger BOGO (buy one get one free) special. The Safi Signature Burger was $9.99. With the BOGO deal that's 2 for that price, which is a bargain these days. I added 2 chicken samosas which were regular price, for $1.75 each. I got the food for pickup. The Safi Signature Burger is a beef patty, topped with cheese, lettuce and tomatoes with ketchup and a spicy sauce in a brioche bun. The beef patty was rather flat and a bit dry, but it was flavourful and I loved the spicy sauce. It gave the burger a nice kick. I also liked that the lettuce was a spring mix and not iceberg lettuce. The lettuce and tomatoes were fresh, as was the bun. I enjoyed the burger, as did my husband. The chicken samosas were also tasty, but oh so oily. The paper bag that they came in was soaked through with oil. I'm glad I had the food in the trunk of my car and not the passenger seat. The samosas were filled with meat and onions. The menu said it had spinach in it too. It wasn't obvious to me that there was spinach in it though. Nonetheless, it was packed with flavour and spices. It wasn't spicy hot, but rather spice-filled. It had a strong cumin taste, which I enjoyed. I had minimal interaction with staff. The man at the grill was preparing food for another customer when he asked me if he could help me. I advised him I was picking up my UberEats order and showed him the order on my phone and said my order number. He reached behind the counter and gave me my bags. I thanked him and off I went. I was happy to see the packaging was very environmentally friendly. The samosas were in brown paper bags and the burgers were wrapped in paper and placed in a separate brown paper bag. I was able to compost all the packaging. I would love to return to try some of their other items. They have a small number of tables and chairs inside to dine in and two tables outside as well. Street parking only.

So I struggled to write this because I used to love this restaurant. The portion sizes were…read moresignificantly shrunk, and the brewed coffee was horrendous. I usually get a latte there but decided on a regular one, that was a mistake. Their food did taste good, and their chutney was still delicious but the service was a bit gruff. They weren't rude by any means but I was ignored for 10 mins just waiting to ask for a takeout box. I could tell he was a bit overwhelmed and probably having an off morning, so I didn't take it personally. But when I'm paying $30 for one breakfast bowl and a coffee, I'd expect more than 2 cherry tomatoes cut in half and a few mushrooms in it. The food is delicious but you're definitely overpaying and 50/50 on the coffee lol

In search for weekend brunch this place came up we thought of trying it out. Parking in streets is…read morenot existent. Had really look at side streets a bit far to get one. All the nearby spots are reserved for the apartment dwellers in the building. Ordered a Huevo Ranchero ($16) - which came with scrambled eggs two corn tortillas with salsa, cheese, sour cream and a side order of fries. The eggs could have used some seasoning even with salsa it needed something extra A Vegan Breakfast Bowl ($14) - a mixture of tofu, spinach, mushrooms and tomato chutney - which somehow tasted to all 4 of us like onion chutney. The vegetables done good, but tofu again had just no flavour. Tofu had a spice rub all over, but it tasted like plain tofu. The Bacun strips were rice paper rolls with some attempted flavours but none came through. And two Vegan Bennies ($16) - a super grainy slice of bread topped with the same tofu, green onions, Bacun and some red pepper strips (NOT Coulis as described in the menu). If some person was having a tofu dish for the first time I think they would describe tofu as no flavour at all. We vegans know that you can do amazing things with Tofu. The home fries in the above dishes was the best - now that we could give 5 out 5. All of us had to go and get Sriracha and Ketchup from the counter to rescue the dishes. Coffee was too weak as well. When you go in and order on the counter and you get food delivered to your table. Should the restaurant still offer to tip on the machine BEFORE even we were served? The order did take a long time, the table not clean when we sat, no condiments on the table and coffee refills slow. An extra star for giving tons of vegan options
