Amuse Kitchen Wine - Ottawa

This is one of our favourite restaurants in Ottawa! I have been here four times now and have been blown away each time! The chef is extremely talented and the menu is always interesting and delicious. The service is great and the atmosphere is warm and welcoming; perfect for a date night, girls night out or a group celebration. Some of my favourite menu items have been the fritters, foie gras, arancini and the iberico. For mains I thoroughly enjoy and crave the sambuca shrimp but have also had the vegetarian wellington and rolled catfish which were both wonderful. This restaurant is a gem in the west end of Ottawa and worth the drive for those downtown or coming from the east end. I read the Ottawa Citizen review and could not disagree more with the writer. I do not know where he ate but I have been here four times and have always had a consistently perfect experience in every way.

We went to amuse for the first time with friends on Saturday night (thankfully we had a reservation as the place was packed), and all four of us cannot wait to go back! The staff were extremely friendly and never made us feel rushed to order or to settle up at the end of the night. The food was beyond incredible!!! We had the chicken and catfish and both were flavourful, beautifully presented and very filling. That being said we somehow found room for dessert and it's safe to say that we all would have licked our plates clean if we could have. 5 stars does not do this place enough justice!!!

Hosted a surprise party for a friend and it was amazing! The waitress was great, the food out of this world, chef even made a custom cake which may be one of the best I've ever had.... This restaurant is a must and will not leave you disappointed.

This is the second time we've been. I think its officially my favourite restaurant now! From the complimentary amuse bouche to start, to the walnut bruschetta, to our mains (elk and tiger shrimp) and dessert (deconstructed key lime pie and chocolate stout cake ice cream sandwich) we were blown away by every bite. Great atmosphere, excellent service, and good food that's delicious, fresh and fast...we'll continue to come for lunch and dinner!

Enjoyed a wonderful dinner here this past Tuesday evening. Our server recommended the Sobrasada Iberico sharing plate and it was SOO good! Could have eaten several orders of just that! My partner's Tenderloin entree was to die for. My Sambuca Shrimp was delish. They were out of the scratch pasta, and instead subbed in a yummy creamy risotto. The atmosphere is nice quiet, comfortable. We'll be back for sure and highly recommend trying this restaurant out!
