   Our waitress was extremely socially awkward and really ruined the vibe.

   Busy for a Saturday brunch but not noisy which was great. Had the duck and pancakes: very yummy! Friend had steak and eggs: fantastic! We were given large proportions (nice compared to other places). Definitely coming back to try other items.

   We purchased the sea-cuterie board and received food that wasn’t special. It took a long time for the simple board to be set up and placed on our table. Roughly 40 min. Also, the music is terrible. We were not the only one to mention this (even the staff had the same opinion). The restaurant is gorgeous and 1920/30s themed. The music should reflect that. Instead bland elevator music of Bruno Mars was on. The place looked bare as there could have been more tables set up in the middle of the restaurant to really make it look and feel like a bistro. We wanted to have a full meal and night there but left soon after the appetizer. Missed opportunity and execution for such a beautiful and inspiring place.

   Were there for breakfast. Food is very good and nicely presented. Good and calming atmosphere. Must allow time as it takes a while for the food to come. Its not a quick in and out breakfast. Recommend if you are not in a hurry.

   Our server was Maddy. We were there to celebrate a birthday and there was a lot of attention to detail. She was excellent and made great recommendations. We enjoyed the sweetbreads and the Steak Frite was delicious. The crime brûlée was my favorite. It was such a nice twist with the pistachio flavour. The cocktails were also fantastic. We highly recommend the Paris Martini. We will sing Cocotte’s praises to our friends.

   The food was a 10/10 We had the sea-cuterie platter to start followed by the beef tartare which was delicious and the beef cheeks which melts in your mouth. Deserts were amazing as well, lemon pie and crème brûlée. Our sister Felix was attentive and we have a great evening. It was about 100$ per head but We’ll he back

    The frog was dry, the tartare should not come on a bagel, the mussels were not fresh, beef burgundy lacked wine jus and beef. The wine list is restrictive and there was nothing offered as a digestive or aperitif on the house.

    This was a business lunch. The serving staff we all very pleasant, but appeared to be disorganized and confused and came to our table with plates meant for other diners several times. The moule frites was just ok. The creme brulee was disappointing. The atmosphere was fine, but nothing special.

    Not exactly what I expected for french food. Not enough richness and flavour. My wife had the mussels and they were not fresh, rather dry and overtly spicey. I love spicey food, but it just seemed out of place. I had the braised veal and it was cooked to very tender but lacked flavour. Also the side of veggies it came with a were rather pathetic. Would be been better if it had been served on a bed of mashed potatoes or had a side of risotto. Won’t be returning tbh.

    While I had done my homework and knew it would be an incredible dining experience, all of my expectations were surpassed and then some. The food was delicious and prepared in unique ways to separate itself from many standards of the dishes. Our server was charming and friendly and enjoyed our questions about the elements of the meal. The environment is a beautiful nod to European decor. A wonderful evening!!

    A pleasant surprise right in the middle of downtown Ottawa! As soon as you walk in the lobby doors of the hotel, you feel like you have just been transported to a cozy Parisian bistro - ambiance, music, food, service! One of my new favourite spots on our capital city

    Cocotte hadn’t spared anything when it comes to detail in decor. It’s stunning with just the right wood. Waitress knew exactly what she was talking about. Cocktails and wine selection, excellent. Food and presentation out of this world! I recommend the veal cheeks. We are definitely going back!
