   Another troubling experience at this location. Steak was cold. Fries cold. Wine list is really terrible. The wine by the glass selection is frankly shameful. This all wouldn't be so bad but Joey charges pricing at fine dining levels and fails to deliver.

   Great food and atmosphere. We came with our grandchildren from Montreal to have a day in Ottawa and dine at Joeys which is their favorite restaurant (ours also). Greacen was our server and she was great and treated the kids like adults. Thank you Joeys

   Interesting fusion of food. Our menu included sliders + dumplings + sushi + cauliflower + chicken parm + spaghetti Strawberry spicy margarita was far too hot to drink. Had to ask for soda to water down. Should not have mixed all the foods. Not a good mix at one meal. Likely would not return. No hand soap in one of woman’s bathroom.

   Very good service. The food was nice. The dish was a bit small and price was high.

   Always a great experience at Joey Rideau! I was a little disappointed that you no longer offer sparkling wine as a welcome drink and have switched to a dealcoholized option instead. That said, our server was excellent. As for the food: My steak was delicious, but my husband's steak was not up to par. It was very chewy with large chunks of fat, and he couldn't eat it. He was too shy to mention it to anyone, so he ended up eating just the fries and salad. On the bright side, the trio sliders were absolutely amazing—so tasty! The Szechuan lettuce chicken was also fantastic, as always. We tried the Laurent Miquel white wine again, and it was just as good as we remembered. Aside from my husband's steak, everything else was perfect. Joey Rideau remains our top choice for dining out in Ottawa.
