Unsuspecting, walked in on Friday night and sat at the bar! Had a steak tartare and it was delicious - fine dining level in a comfortable relaxed atmosphere. Great service and cocktails. Highly recommend! The brunch looks amazing too.
Visited The Belmont for Sunday brunch, arriving at 10:45 amidst a bustling crowd. Despite the fun, lively atmosphere, and friendly service, our dining experience was quite disappointing. The poached eggs were tasty. They were accompanied by a salad, biscuit, and potatoes, the overall flavour was lacking. The potatoes were particularly bland, relying on hot sauce and ketchup for taste. My husband and I noticed the strange tanginess of the salad, which we thought was the dressing... and soon discovered soggy, and even rotten greens, prompting us to notify our server. While she handled the situation graciously, stating it could be due to too much dressing, she replacing the salad. However, the replacement was marred by the same issue, with a significant portion of lettuce being spoiled and slimy. I had to pick through the salad to get the edible pieces.. but didn't want to look like a jerk and complain again... I felt like I was in a simulation because the guys next to us were raving about it and didn't seem to notice how rotten it was LOL. How did they not notice?! It's so disappointing to go out and spend 65$ on brunch for two (food, coffee, and an oj) for it to be lacking in flavour and rotten... unfortunately it left much to be desired and we will not be returning.
Incredible brunch if you can get in. The fining room is so small that you're almost guaranteed to nor get in... but if you're lucky then you'll really enjoy the food.
Honestly the best brunch I've had in Ottawa. The full Belmont had this homemade sausage, delicious scone, incredible homemade beans, and great potatoes, eggs, and bacon. Ask for hebenor sauce they make it in house and we bought a bottle - so good if you like spicy! The French toast....unreal! Can't even describe the flavors. It was perfect. Check them out - service was great too. Got in without a reservation and got seated at the bar right away. Didn't feel rushed to leave which was a nice change!
My friends and I made a reservation at the restaurant last Sunday. Very nice restaurant! I was pleasantly surprised by the quality and originality of the dishes on the menu. A bit of everything: plantains, chilli, Turkish omelettes. I'll definitely be going back! The service was also very pleasant, but the general atmosphere in the room was a little noisy (not the place to have a quiet meal or date). Very small too, but all in all the meal was worth it! Nice presentation too, Kudo to the Chef!
Fantastic atmosphere and delicious food!
Was our first time back in a few years, we certainly won't wait another few years to go back. Had great food and the service was on point. Had a few different plates with the family style option and loved them all. The food was tasty, hot and fresh. Atmosphere was great too, not too loud and could have a conversation.
