Il Negozio Nicastro - Ottawa, Ontario

A truly unique family-run and distinctly Italian spot. Great for Italian import shopping throughout the day as the Ottawa Nicastros we know and love, transformed into a quant dining experience with quality family-run service with both great food and great drinks in a uniquely utilitarian atmosphere right in the bottega ... at night. Certainly a go-to for us from now on for anything from a light bite or quick drink to a full dining experience. Could not recommend enough. Read more

came in the other night with my girlfriend, cocktails were off the charts and the ambiance is surreal. will definitely be coming back, truly a hidden gem of wellington!

This is my new favorite place to go in Ottawa. From the vibe, the service, the food and the drinks, they do it all in style. It's an absolute pleasure trying their menu. They have sufficient food choices for vegetarians. Not suitable for vegans though 😅

What an absolute gem! Ventuno reminds me of my years spent living in New York City! The space is beautiful, from their wood wall to their cloud lights to their funky Scandinavian walnut chairs. Their cocktail menu is fantastic (I tried the Roberto Giovanni and the Scenes from an Italian ... Restaurant but I'm excited to work my way through the whole menu). Their small plates menu is great - the ricotta crostini is a must try. The staff are just such lovely people as well. Overall amazing experience! I think I found my new go to spot for a drink!!!

Great spot for cocktails and small plates. Particularly enjoyed the negroni and grapefruit cocktails. Great selection of meat and cheeses for boards and all bites have been great. I recommend warm olives, guanciale crostini, and caprese.
