Best Restaurant In Ottawa
Just wanted to get some opinions on what everyone thinks is the city's best restaurant.
I'm looking for a place that has a chefs 5 or 7 course selection on the menu. Would go to Beckta but can't get a reservation for Saturday.
Any suggestions?

I love the Outback but looks like you want somethig fancy.. I would highly reccomend Hy's on Queen st. For steak.. maybe Fertelli's in Kanata for Italian..

Wife's bday meal & we usually do dinner at a decent restaurant. Did Perspectives last time & Hy's the time before.
Never been to Le Jardin or Fertelli's - are they nice?

If you are not averse to wearing a jacket and spending a bunch, I'll suggest Signatures, it's the restaurant attached to the Cordon Blue Cooking school.
For less formal dining, I will second the recommendations for Le Jardin, although it's been a while since I was there last.
Other recommendations:
Vittoria Trattoria in the market.
Les Fougeres in Chelsea.Not fat anymore. Need to get better at golf now!

Definitely les Fougeres in Chelsea.

Try le Sans Pareil in Hull on St Joseph just west of the Casino. IMHO it is better than Beckta and half the price. They have a "chef surprise" table d'hote that with 3 3oz glasses of wine is $65 (if memory serves).

The final decision is Les Fougeres - I've never been there so I'm looking forward to it.
I got more/better information from this post than I did in 45 minutes of searching the internet for Ottawa restaurant reviews. Thanks for your input everyone.

Cabatto's on Hazeldean out past Haime's place. Excellent Italian food and service.
Oggi in Manotick Station is a wonderful Italian place too. Really intimate.
The restaurant at the Brookstreet hotel is excellent.
Biagio on Richmond. (hey, I'm noticing an Italian trend...hmmmmm...)
Azteca in the market. Superb traditional mexican.
Empire Grill, in the market.
Mama Grazzi's, also in the market.
Fiamma in Barrhaven.
Fratelli, downtown or Kanata.
Von's Bistro on Bank St.When applying the Rules, you follow them line by line. You don't read between them.

Not quite the fancy place but went to the Keg Manor last week and it was great. Highly recommend it.

Fat Tuesday is my recommendation! The food there is unreal. And if you go on the weekend, you get dueling pianos for entertainment.

let's put it this way, my father in law is English and nothing says dinner to him like Roast Beef and Yorkshire Pudding in an old Victorian style Parlour.

A little off topic here but,if anyone is ever in Montreal looking for breakfast,
go to Cosmos on the corner of Sherbrooke/Decarie
Once you go in,you might not even want to sit down.The place is a hole in the ground!
But!the food is awsome if your into the major arterry clogging breakfast!
Very famous place in Montreal.[font=Impact]Dirty...Mean...And Mighty Unclean.[/font]

Ah dude if you want smoke meat,go to the Main Deli on St. Laurent
Another great place even closer to us here is Smoke Meat Petes in L'ile Pereault.
I wish i could get smoke meat like that here[font=Impact]Dirty...Mean...And Mighty Unclean.[/font]

For Montreal Smoked Meat, it's Ben's or Schwartz's in Montreal. Everything else is 2nd place.
