1. Chez Lucien
The other reviewers pretty much sum it up but here is a short course for getting the most out of Chez Luicen. Go towards, but not into, the dodgy part of the market and look for a small neon BAR sign over the door of an old stone building. Unless…More »
2. Ada's Diner
Ada has been in in this location for 19 years. She is the front of house, the management and the staff. Moves through a full house of breakfast eaters like the prima ballerina at the Bolshoi.

6. Colonnade Pizza & Restaurant
Pizza is the same as the location on Metcalfe. Excellent.
I think what makes this pizza superlative is the ratio of cheese to everything else. Big time cheese melted on top of other toppings. (My son argues with me, saying toppings should go on…More »
7. Kettleman's Bagel Company
Best bagels in Ottawa. I only ever get the sesame ones and sometimes a container of one of their flavoured cream cheese spreads (garlic or hot pepper).
