Great place...Beer is priced at 2 to 3 times retail... reasonable. Food was good selection slim. Service great.

My first visit since this place opened and was not disappointed. The look of the place is tasteful with a nice bar area, stone wall, not too big. Excellent and knowledgeable staff to serve, and good beer selection for the Ottawa area, with some rarities from TO and other provinces. The food is pricey but is part of the experience, all beer based, had the shrimp and belly on polenta, served with bread and chocolate malt butter (nice). They do flights of select beers.

Visited Feb. 26, 2013 (evening). Not that old of a restaurant and it has already gained good clientele. A beautiful urban style restaurant, not very large. A pretty good but small food menu, a little pricey, I had the steak frite, delicious! Not bad tap list, not as big as Black Tomato but more variety, and they have a very good bottle selection, only L’Autre Oeil in Aylmer has more. A good rivalry to the Black Tomato!

Went for lunch and the place was empty apart from a few tables (might have had something to do with the -30C weather outside) but more attention for us. Obviously we had very attentive service but they also knew their beer including chatting about distribution; beer selection was great for Ottawa and prices and size were reasonable as well (12oz Peche Mortal for $9). Food was delicious and at least at lunch reasonably priced (dinner not so much). Love the atmosphere but see how it could get crowded and noisy at dinner. So I highly recommend coming for lunch and then staying for beer and charcuterie - just be mindful that the kitchen closes between 2-5:30.

Ambiance is a bit noisy but it might be from the guy who likes cozy atmosphere. Looks more like a restaurant. But that’s OK . I was there for the beer. Service is good, smiley and friendly. Selection of beers is very good for a couple of months operation bistro (close to 100) and quality of selection is good too.Very good taps and well served (proper glass) Food is excellent also. Keep up the good work

Like the place. Haven’t eaten here yet. Atmosphere is definitely higher end, not a place for a bunch of pints and arguing NHL hockey.
