Ottawa Foodies

Went here with a group of about 18 for a goodbye lunch but I will only speak for myself. I ordered the seared tuna salad. The tuna was great - I got a decent sized hunk for lunch and it was properly seared. It was served alongside the salad which was unproportionally way too large and very uninspiring. How dissapointing.

I don't know why people like this place. It's crowded, over-priced and the food is very ordinary. They don't have any decent appetizers - I'm a smoked salmon fiend and I HATED they're smoked salmon spread...it was kinda like a 1950's style cheese ball that your maiden aunt would make. Also, the service is bad. Their system of allowing more than one server per table does not work very well.

I went here last night with a few people at someone else's request. I had read the 'warnings' on here before going so I was not expecting much. And that is exactly what they delivered....

Both the food and service were so-so. I had a Baton Rouge burger, not the ribs, so perhaps that influenced things. The burger was a bit dry even though I had asked for medium-well, not well-done. I could not believe how many people must love this place though since it was absolutely packed.

I will not be returning to this place unless it is for another group thing.

Really love how they are fully loaded with the toppings, but there is way too much salt on the skins making them slightly inedible.
