Santé Restaurant - Ottawa, Ontario

I visit .Ottawa about twice a year and look forward to having lunch with my sister. This week we decided to try Sante because my mother used to rave about it 30 years ago. While my sister's lunch was fine, I ordered the organic salmon and it was ... dry as a bone - horribly overcooked - it should not have been served. I believe it must have been left over from the day before. The vegetables that came with it weren't good either. I ate it because we had waited half an hour to get lunch even though we were the only ones in the restaurant, I was too hungry to wait and I did not want both my sister and I to eat alone. When the waitress asked me how my meal was I was honest and said it wasn't good. She consulted with the chef and they reduced the price by half, but realistically it wasn't worth even that.

Wonderful food, but kinda cramped. Flavours could be a lot more intense. Our waiter Andrew was wonderful
