Lift Restaurant - Ottawa, Ontario

I enjoyed a pleasant late afternoon on a Saturday. Tuna Nicoise was my preferred dish however the calamari is good as well. Several cocktails kept me company during this early dinner

Delicious food in a gorgeous building. I ordered the halloumi salad and it was very tasty. The ambiance is very modern and the service is excellent.

Our waiter was very nice, if a bit shy. The food was pretty forgettable though. I ordered the short rib... quite a large amount of fat was left untrimmed. The meat itself was decent, as were the sides. Pretty average quality I would say though. The thoughts of my fellow ... diners were the same as mine: the food was alright, but not anywhere near great, or even very good. The prices are quite reasonable though. Read more

An excellent restaurant with a fantastic Chef. I had dinner there a few times and the dishes were absolutely delicious... every time! As of special note is a dish called "Aglio olio e peperoncino"; ask to have some shrimp added (even though it's not an option in the menu) and you'll ... have the pleasure to eat one of the best pasta dishes you've ever had.

Excellent breakfast buffet with some unusual items such as smoothie shots and chia seed pudding. All the dishes were of excellent quality, clearly prepared by actual chefs.
