He gave us a great run down of all the products they carry and knew all the ingredients. I was very pleased with the level of customer service. We ended up getting a load of the eggless bread, a variety of cookies, including the coconut cookie (both my mom and I enjoyed this one the most), butter tarts, cherry tart, blueberry tart, pumpkin muffin, and cinnamon danishes. The cinnamon danish was light, moist and flavourful. I didn't try the tarts but was told they were delicious - flaky crust. Since my parents are local, they will be back for sure! I would highly recommend, especially if you have food allergies.

There were five of us dining, and we ended up ordering seven entrées because everything sounded too good to pass up. Even more telling--one person in our group isn't a pasta fan at all and was completely blown away and finished every last bite. Do not skip dessert. The crème brûlée was perfectly done, and the world-famous tiramisu absolutely lives up to the hype. From start to finish, it was one of those meals that reminds you why dining out can be such a great experience. Highly recommend this place, and we'll absolutely be back.

Very cute little Italian restaurant serving fresh pastas…read more I ordered the penne de Poulet special and although the pasta was perfectly cooked I felt that it was nothing special. We were in a larger group of 10+ people and must have overwhelmed their kitchen as a bunch of us had ordered the carbonara with some waiting an hour to get their dishes. The staff did not come over to notify of the delay nor did they seem to care about refilling our waters pitchers either.

Canada. Who would have thought Canada is one of the best places to get great food!…read more While we were exploring Ottawa, we found the market square. We visited while the tulip festival was going on. There was food, art and lots of jewelry vendors, It was bustling. So many people and so much food. From Indian to a store all about cheeses from around the world. Being from Florida it's nice to find places like this that are very different and unique. The best part about this market was finding a classic poutine spot. The menu was very diverse, but we wanted something completely classic. The flavor of the gravy was delicious and the french fries were fried perfectly. The cheese is very different too. It can be very spongy, but it goes well with the whole combination. We definitely would return back to Bytown Joe's to try their unique flavors of poutine!

We had lunch there recently, and enjoyed some of their salad options. The salads were good and fresh, without fuss. But what I really appreciated from this place were the little extra things they put toward their restaurant. Here are some things I noticed: - Community events (e.g. comedy night) scheduled - Personalized decorations featuring their team members - Local crafts corner - Super clean bathroom with extra amenities (and a ''word search'' puzzle for you to stare at when on the throne!) - All kinds of games for kids Isn't that a heartwarming and positive way to conduct business? It certainly goes hand in hand with the food. Way to go!

Don't come here expecting fresh food. From what I observed and experienced it's all frozen patties,…read moretoasters, and microwaves. The staff were friendly enough, but never asked how my food was so I didn't tell them. I feel very disappointed in my experience here. They have a large selection of nachos so I tried them. Weirdly enough it's all chicken based but honestly, it felt like a 10-year-old made my nachos. Almost no meat of the affirmed frozen reheated variety- and it wasn't what the young staff said it was. She said it was "grilled chicken breast cut up." It was a breaded frozen patty and not much of it too. A handful of shredded cheese un-melted from its quick pass in the microwave hiding under a whole bunch of wet iceberg lettuce and one or two small pieces of jalapeños. This was really just a suggestion of nachos. But for $15, I would've expected something more quality. Perhaps if I had gotten a coffee and a pastry and played a board game this place would've been the bees knees. I would not suggest it unless it's the only thing open which on this Sunday in Potsdam, which it was. Update: I just read the other reviews for this place. I should've read them prior to coming as I would have looked elsewhere. They really should do better. It could be a wonderful spot. The menu is extensive. If you can't prepare a lot of food well, don't. Try preparing smaller menu VERY WELL. IMHO UPDATE 2: I had upset stomach all afternoon and evening within an hour of eating here

Popped in on Friday for the first time with my partner. The place smelled amazing. I have a bit of…read morea sweet tooth and couldn't decide what I wanted. The staff were so nice. We picked out several items to bring home: a scone, lemon cupcake, chocolate cupcake, a chocolate raspberry parfait, a raspberry bomb, and a brownie with peanut butter icing. We also both each got a smoothie, one blueberry, honey, Greek yogurt and a strawberry banana. Unbeatable flavor with the smoothies. So many different ingredients and the price was very reasonable! The treats were so very good. The peanut butter icing on the brownie was a little too sweet for my taste but omg still so tasty. The raspberry in the parfait was also too sweet (for our taste) but again, the flavor was SO good. I could not believe how tasty all these things were. I would highly recommend to anyone who is looking for something sweet and gluten free. It's so hard to get a really good gluten free treats around here and this is the place you can get them! This is my new favorite bakery! Also.. LGBT+ love and inclusion. They also do lunch items that I haven't gotten to try yet, but such a reall, REALLY tasty looking menu for those. I'm looking forward to going back and trying more items!

I got the breakfast with meat and pancakes. Everything was good. Service was fast. It was a week before Christmas on a Thursday and the restaurant was packed.

Everything else was great.

I had lunch at Taqueria La Bonita with a friend. I felt that the food was good but a bit overpriced…read morefor what it was. The restaurant has two locations, the original one on Cadboro, which I've been to before, and this newer one on Wellington West. I feel that this location on Wellington West is a bit "hipper" and "cooler" yet more commercial. The Cadboro location, I found more like a family eatery and had more of a mom and pop feel. I got 2 tacos ($6.50 each), the barbacoa, and the chicken mole. My friend got 2 chicken quesadillas ($8 each). Both the tacos and quesadillas were really small, much smaller than I expected for the price. The barbacoa taco was pulled beef topped with onions and cilantro. The beef was tender and the seasonings were tasty. The chicken mole taco was topped with shredded lettuce, cheese and a white sauce. The mole sauce was sweet and had a strong chocolate flavour. The taco shells were corn tortillas and they give you double shells. I had to eat my tacos with a knife and fork because they fell apart when I tried to pick them up. My friend also had to eat her quesadillas with a knife and fork. Service was very pleasant. We got a glass bottle of water for our table. Our server checked up on us appropriately. Decor is very cool and colourful. Lots of Mexican items around. The restaurant in this space before Taqueria La Bonita was also a Mexican restaurant (the very short lived, La Cocina Loca), and the restaurant before that was also a Mexican restaurant (the second location for Ola Cocina, sadly it closed, but the original Ola Cocina in Vanier lives on). Prior to that it was Zazaza (a pizza place). I looked at their drinks menu and they have lots of creative and delicious sounding (and expensive) drinks. They have some sofa like chairs and the back of the restaurant has a more loungey feel. Overall I felt that the food was good, but too pricey for me, as I could have easily eaten 5-6 tacos and $30-$40 for a taco lunch is too spendy for me.

So I came across Popular Pizza in September 2023 when I went to the plaza to get some bubble tea at…read moreOneZo Tapioca. I was incredibly disappointed to find OneZo had shut down. However, I noticed Popular Pizza had opened up next door. I was on the hunt for bubble tea and not pizza, so I made a mental note to return one day to check it out. That day finally came in December (2023). And I'm kicking myself that I waited so long! I got the $19 walk-in special, which was a large pizza, 3 toppings and a dip. Three years ago I would have laughed and said "that's not a deal!" But times have changed and unfortunately that is now in fact a deal, lol. I should mention that that price is inclusive of tax, so it's even more of a deal, haha. I got green peppers and butter chicken as my toppings (butter chicken is a premium topping and counts as 2 toppings). And I chose the Chipotle dip. The wait was about 20 minutes. And service was friendly and efficient. The pizza was fantastic! I like that the crust is thin and crispy and they spread the sauce and toppings all the way to the edge. The pizza had a potent butter chicken taste and they were generous with the toppings. Lots of cubes of lean chicken breast and diced green peppers. It tasted like a true Indian-fusion pizza. So tasty. My husband and I really enjoyed it. The place is strictly takeout. No eat in. There are 3 chairs to sit and wait for your order, but you can't really eat there because there are no tables. They sell pizza by the slice, so I guess you could sit at one of the chairs and eat your slice, lol. Free parking available in the plaza parking lot.
