Came at the perfect time to enjoy the sunset while enjoying some quality food. My steak was cooked to perfection, didn't even need the knife, so tender. Staff made us feel welcome and service was fast for a fine dining establishment.

Amazing restaurant and perfect event venue! We had our wedding at le st Laurent (ceremony and reception, about 50 people) in late Sept 2024. We can't say enough nice things about Shannon, Ryan and their team. During the planning, they were so organized and wonderful to work with. On the day of, everything went perfectly smoothly. The entire staff was incredibly professional and attentive to our (and our guests') needs. The food, of course, was amazing (multiple guests pulled us aside to rave about the arancini). They were very accommodating of dietary concerns and included a gluten free/vegan option. The venue itself is awesome, with views of the city, greenery and hills. The sunset pictures were more than we could have hoped for. They made this event so easy and wonderful for us. If you're looking for a beautiful spot with great food for a nice night out or an intimate event, we can't recommend them highly enough!

I had my birthday here and the food was 10/10. The Beef cheek is so tender it melted in my mouth. The fries are very crispy and all the appetizers we ordered were delicious. And the view is stunning.

Dear Le St. Laurent I write this review sitting at a window seat overlooking the amazing view of Ottawa. I can't express how impressed I am, the food, Staff and Decor exudes class at a evaluated level I rarely see, ecstatic to have stumbled upon this place when searching local fine dining. A title you hold brilliantly, thank you for hosting us. We and my family will most certainly be back. All the best. MH

We hosted my daughter's baby shower and it was an incredible experience. The service was impeccable, the staff so welcoming and kind. Shannon the manager went above and beyond to ensure the event was a success. The food was some of the best gourmet food I have ever experienced in a restaurant. We had a group of 50 and each guest ranted and raved about how their meal was incredible, from the salad, to the main course to the dessert. The view is breathtaking! We had 2 mocktails prepared for the shower and they were a work of art--so delicious, even the wines suggested by Shannon paired so nicely with the meal. Thank you Le St. Laurent for an event that exceeded all expectations. This restaurant should be on your list of must try restaurants to visit in Ottawa!!!!!! You will not be disappointed.

Recently visited Le St Laurent for the first time. Quite possibly the best views of Ottawa from a restaurant window. Friendly staff and excellent seafood dishes. The chef is the owner, so the restaurant is all about the food experience. Fabulous meal. Highly recommend for a special dinner out. This is a great place to host people from out of town as it showcases great local food and our cityscape.

I can only give one star as the experience I had hoped for was not delivered. I had the scallops they were very bland and masked with an insane amount of spice that was unsettling. I also brought my dad here for his birthday only for our group to have a view of a giant cemetery. I am very displeased with the experience we got and felt very uncomfortable at this establishment

a 3 star is a higher rating than i would like to give, but 2 star would be too low. nice view, good service, but food is far from exceptional. just regular food, nothing special, would not consider this anywhere close to fine dining

A very successful meal with friends, but a small detail could be corrected at little cost. You should serve a crunchy baguette, not something that looks like it came from a convenience store. It s a shame because, apart from this small detail, everything was excellent and the service was second to none.

My husband and I went there for our 45th wedding anniversary and the food and service were excellent. I had the asparagus salad as an appetizer which was served with summer truffles and it was delicious. For the mains I had the Nova Scotia scallops which was plated beautifully and very tasteful. My husband had the steak & frittes which was a cooked exactly as he ordered. Very tender and lots to eat. The gentleman who served us was very attentive and the wine he suggested to compliment my meal was perfect. No complaints and I would highly recommend anyone to go and try this restaurant. It does not disappoint. Parking: Small parking lot behind the restaurant but lost of free parking across the street in the church parking lot.

Went for a birthday dinner over the weekend. Everything was delicious! I had the asparagus appetizer and my sister had the scallops ceviche. For our mains she had the halibut and I had the beef cheeks. Seriously the most tender slab of beef Ive ever had. No knife necessary. It came with gnocchi that was pillowy and soft. Our server was great and we really enjoyed the quiet atmosphere and panoramic views. I appreciated the fact my sisters dessert was served with a candle for her birthday. Will definitely be going back!

Food was delicious but too many fries with the steak & frites - could have been more creative. View was beautiful. All other tables around us got bread, we did not. Reserved as a birthday, they said happy birthday when we arrived, the waitress knew it was my wifes bday. Birthday table beside us got complimentary dessert - my wife did not - which was a little strange. Also requested a nice table and got seated at the back where the room looked half set up with extra tables just stored to the side. Not a great atmosphere at the back. Overall disappointed for the price. Could be a five star but.need to work on the details.

Wow, absolutely perfect dining experience from start to finish. We have been meaning to visit for a long time since moving to Ottawa, and decided to celebrate my birthday there. From the moment we walked in we felt a very warm welcome. Service was absolutely top notch. We each had a lovely cocktail and enjoyed the spectacular view over the city. I had the beet salad and beef short rib, both of which I d happily order again. My wife had the cauliflower soup to start and scallops for her main, both excellent as well. Finished with a lemon tart and crème brûlée, both outstanding! Looking forward to our next visit already!

We happened to be there right at sunset, what a spectacular view.

This is a restaurant whos main attraction is the marvelous view and wonderful staff. The food is beautifully presented but lacked the promise of flavour. Everything seemed to be watered down in some way. I had the lobster bisque which should be creamy and rich, instead I felt a bit cheated by the tomato broth with hints of lobster and a swirl of cream as decoration. My sister was told it would irritate the chef if she changed out the dressing for her salad as each dish had a specific flavour profile. So she ordered the beet salad with blueberry jalapeno dressing, which ended up tasting like chaos on a plate. We both ordered the lamb shanks and I imagine they were cooked mainly by sous vide since the meats flavour was diluted and the fat less rendered than typically accepted. The au jus with rosemary and mash potato spring roll were divine though, so we maintained a bit of hope. I asked our server if my sister could exchange her meal for another on the menu since she couldnt stomach the lamb in its current form. With a smile, our server said, Absolutely not. I knew then, our enjoyment of the food was secondary to the chefs pride in his creation. So if you go, enjoy the fabulous view and great cocktails, but know your place.

The place is beautiful with a truly peaceful view over the city. We had the endive salad which was just perfect. We also had the short rib, it was really good, but missing some salt. The meat was tender, but not as juicy as I would have hoped. The scallops were amazing. Just perfect. Now to the downsides: we waited forever to have our order taken. I ordered a cocktail - whiskey sour, tastes nothing like Im used to. No sweetness whatsoever. Just tasted bitter, not even sour. And the server is trying to explain to me that I dont know how a whiskey sour shoulr taste and that this is the right way. Anyways I asked the server to add some simple syrup and have it reshaken. Well after they did that I saw my cocktail travelling to another table. It stayed with other guests for at least 5-10mins - no idea if anyone sipped from it or anything. After which it was taken back to the bar. Maybe 10mins after that our server takes it from the bar and wants to serve it to me, warm, sipped from by other people... Of course I asked for a new one. This shouldnt have happened! And during all that time passing we havent yet received our mains. So needless to say service needs quite some work!

My brother recommended Le St Laurent to my husband and I. We just had an amazing New Year s Eve dinner there. It was a set menu with 2 options for each course. Since this was our first visit we decided to order one of each option to get a full sample of the restaurant s fare . We were very impressed with the service, presentation, quality and flavour of each dish. So much so we ve already made a reservation for our next special occasion. This may just become one of our favourite places!

Le St. Laurent is an absolute lovely dining experience. The restaurant itself is gorgeous and romantic, with a spectacular view of downtown. We were already entranced by the atmosphere, and then the food came. A happy surprise to have bread with the starters (yay) and the mains were delicious.

Food and view is awsome...awsome fish and dessert. Limited in choices, and you end up paying for the beautiful view of the city.

The restaurant has an elegant and sophisticated ambiance, and the service throughout our visit was fantastic. The staff was friendly, knowledgeable, and welcoming, which made us feel right at home. One thing that really stood out to me was their great selection of gins. Im a gin enthusiast, and I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of the drinks they served. The view from the penthouse of this building is breathtaking, and it offers a unique perspective of downtown Ottawa. We were able to see the Parliament building from afar, but also had an up-close view of the National Military Cemetery. It was an amazing sight to behold. When it came to the food, we were not overwhelmed but not disappointed either. The dishes were tasty and had great portion sizes. However, the dessert of pouding chomeur was just fine - nothing special. It would have been next to tasteless if not for the ice cream. Those who remember pouding chomeur from their younger days might have been disappointed. Overall, Le St Laurent is a restaurant that I would recommend you give a try for anyone looking for a new dining experience in Ottawa. The combination of the view, great service, fantastic drinks, and delicious food make it a must-visit for anyone in the area. While the dessert was not the highlight of the meal, it did not take away from the overall experience. I would definitely try this restaurant again in the future.

We were entirely impressed with Le St Laurent. The bartender mixed us up some delicious non-alcoholic cocktails based on a general description of what we would like. We both had salads that were delicious. I had the braised short rib, which was the most tender piece of meat Ive ever eaten, and everything on the plate was just incredible. My partner had the pan seared pickerel and raved about it. And on top of all that, the view is amazing. You look over the Beechwood cemetery, Rockcliffe, etc, and you can see all the way to the peace tower. Highly recommended.

I had an incredible night here. It was just myself and my husband. We were celebrating our wedding just the 2 of us. When we were first seated they brought us each a glass of champagne to congratulate us. The waitress we had she was amazing. The food was beyond words and I cannot express how amazing it all tasted. My husband started off with the foie Gras and I had the tuna. It was to die for. For our mains my husband had the scallops and I had the pickerel. Oh my gosh we have never had such delicious pieces of seafood Im our lives. To top it all off we each had dessert. Mine was an angel food cake type, and my husband had a donut with ice cream and coffee. Again delish. I highly recommend coming here for any sort of meal. 15 out of 10 for us.

Le St-Laurent is amazing. I took my husband for his birthday, and I cant even fully describe how perfect everything was. I dont remember the last time Ive been to a restaurant that was really 5 stars on everything; we were truly blown away. Atmosphere/ambiance was amazing, view was incredible, music was awesome (honestly, it was almost weird how much of the music was stuff we liked from various decades), service was excellent, menu was super interesting, and everything we ordered was delicious. We had the foie gras, zucchini flowers, NS scallops, braised beef short ribs, and doughnut with ice cream for dessert. My husband doesnt even eat dessert usually, and he did--thats how great everything was. We happened to be there on a night the Casino fireworks were going, and it was next level. We had just realized they might be on that night and were chatting about sticking around to see them when an employee came over to tell us they were happening so that we wouldnt miss them! Super thoughtful. They dimmed the lights a bit so everyone could see better, it was great. If you havent been, GO! My in-laws already went solely based on how happy we looked when we came home from this place and now THEYRE raving about it as well. Hats off to everyone at this restaurant for making a truly place restaurant on all levels!

Great experience. At first we were given a table with a window view that was 3/4 covered by a non-functional blind. It really defeats the purpose of trying this restaurant that takes pride of its penthouse view of the sunset at dinner time. We had to ask to change table and were then given a table with a full window view... just in time to catch a beautiful sunset! The service and food that came after were wonderful. Josh looked after us and we appreciated his attentiveness (10/10, Josh!). Thank you to the entire staff for a great dinner and wonderful evening for me and my wife. Bravo, Le St Lauent!

Chic restaurant with a nice atmosphere. Ignoring bugs on outside of windows one has no control over and double paned glass reflections - the views are nice.

One expects 5 stars across board when prices and reviews above avg. When we were there, when less than busy, having observed two tables ask for more water was less than impressive. Reminding staff on another item also not pleasing. Food good tho not wowish and would recommend an appetizer or eating some of the in house bread if ordering a less substantial main. View great. Nice layout. With the high reviews I expected more but meeting high expectations is often a difficult undertaking.

Went for the 5 course meal for late New Years Eve dinner. We were told upon arrival that everything had to be rushed due to covid and that instead of ringing in the new years there we would be kicked out at 11 and not be served alcohol after 10pm. I know this is not the restaurants fault but a lil email notice would have been appreciated. The first course was delicious however everything that followed was not to my liking so I essentially paid 130$ for a tiny bowl of soup and left very hungry. I wore a beautiful dress but nobody got to see it really because the air conditioning was blasting cold air right above our table and we had a great window seat but it only added to the freezing temperatures so I had no choice but to keep my winter jacket on the entire time! We let the server know but unfortunately there was nothing they could do about it, I do believe they tried tho. The staff was kind and friendly, I have no complaints there so I still gave an a good tip because none of my issues were with staff. Not sure I will return for an a la carte menu but I might give it another shot on a regular day with open menu choice.

Food was excellent. Service was pleasant and attentive. Tables were full, and nicely spaced. View of National Capital was lovely. Would have preferred a coat check offering. One does exist there, of course. Wine by the glass was limited, though full selection was fairly good. I enjoyed scallops and pork belly. A strong 8 of 10. Highly recommended. Great place for a date or an isolated, private conversation. Is on Penthouse floor of building. Our second visit. Try it.

Went here for date night based on the reviews. Started with the beet salad and hubby had the scallop crudo. Scallop was much better from a flavour stand point. Had the pork belly and short rib both lacked depth of flavour. I was disappointed given the price point of both dishes. Go for the view and cocktails.

We were disappointed overall with this restaurant. My meal was overly salty beef short rib served with soggy vegetables. Was not a complete meal should be served with potatoes. A pathetic plate with 4 tiny slices of bread was brought before the meal and looked like something from an airplane meal. Entire restaurant reeked of fish, and Nickleback played on the radio for ambiance. View was nothing to write home about and we had sun blaring on us the whole time even with the shade down. Waiters were amateurish and rushed us at the end despite the place being empty. Very overpriced and would not recommend. Although I understand the bar in Ottawa is pretty low.

First time to this great restaurant and cant wait to go again!! We arrived at 5:15 pm on Saturday night. Started to fill up by 5:45 pm. First of all- theres no bad seat in the restaurant. Everyone can see out of the panoramic windows (although we had a seat directly on the window.) You can see as far as the Gatineau Mountains! Beautiful skyline of Ottawa too. Two of us had the Cod and Shrimp dish in a broth with corn that was excellent! One of us had the homemade cavatelli pasta with button mushrooms, green peas, rosemary, parmesan and lemon which was also fantastic! The Gazpacho as well as the 2 colored beet salad with tiny pickled apples and goat cheese croquettes were also great appetizers!! Great place for special occasions, out of town guests and just to treat yourselves!! Not inexpensive but in line in what its worth- great food, great views and great service!

After 2 years of not really celebrating our anniversary, we decided to try a very secluded restaurant located in the Penthouse of a beautiful apartment building on St-Laurent and Dunbarton (Brittany rd). Le St-Laurent is an elegant restaurant, with Owner and Chef Ryan making some of the most delicious food. He uses local and seasonal ingredients to create his menu, and this intimate setting has the most amazing view of the Ottawa Valley, the skyline at sunset was to die for and you can see the gatineau hills. Compliments to the chef for not only making such flavourful food, but also hand picking each staff member. Our server, Ann, was so sweet and attentive, and the bartender was very friendly and created very delicious cocktails. Now on to the food and drinks, we decided on a nice Pinot Grigio, later in our meal, we got a few caesars and Sean wanted to try one of their specialty cocktails that tasted like an icy apple cider. For the 2 entrées, we got the roasted mushroom soup which was so creamy and full of flavour, and the beet salad, with little slices of green grapes, nice chunks of orange and red beets, balsamic dressing, topped with grilled Halloumi cheese and roasted nuts, this was one of the best beet salads in Ottawa! For our Mains, we got the steak and frites, and the braised beef shortrib. The level of quality in these dishes was on point. The steak was cooked to our liking and the crispy thin fries were yummy. As for the shortrib, it was pulling apart so easily and melt in your mouth, and was accompanied by a delious sauce and cauliflower puree. Our overall experience was fantastic and would love to go again for another tasty beet salad. This is a must try! #supportlocal #ottawafoodiestalker

Le St. Laurent is east Ottawas gem. Both their lunch and dinner options are delicious. The chicken sandwich is one of my favourites in town. We ordered a set menu for dinner and everything from appetizer to dessert was amazing - especially the lobster risotto and sticky toffee (please being these back to the menu at some point!). I recommend this spot to all my friends and family!

December 22, 2021

Very disappointing. We wanted to support a local small restaurant as we re able to dine in restaurants again. Unknowingly the menu was changed from what s on their website to a menu without direction. We arrived craving traditional French, and wanted the steak frities, and a simple traditional French dish was removed from their menu. I received a bland apple salad, and a dry tasteless crispy tofu for the main. I would have ordered the beef Wellington until I m saw a table order the dish and it came out looking dry and boring. Ottawa has a lot of great restaurants, I would not suggest eating here. To answer the owners question (see owner s reply), we did eat at your restaurant. We had the 8pm reservation, and we ordered exactly what I mentioned above. I would have written an email; however, I wanted to share your updated menu which wasn t present on your website, and provide feedback on the food. On a positive note, the waitress was very friendly and kind, we tipped her well as the decisions in food and menu change wasn t her fault.

Nice view and layout but service wasnt what I expected. Our waitress brought over our bottle of wine and just dropped it on our table. Didnt open the bottle nor poor it for us. When the food came, it wasnt her who brought it to our table which happens sometimes, but she never came to see us to check how we liked the food or the wine. The food was way too salty. I had the beef brisket with Brussel sprouts it was too salty to eat and the meat was dry. My partner had the duck and it too was dry and overly salty. We literally took 3 bites of our food. I was so unhappy I just wanted to leave. And that being said I had to flag another lady that was walking by to get our bill. She saw our plates and asked us of we wanted to bring home the food. I said no and she was just like ok. $225 later we went somewhere else to eat.

Great food, classy cocktails (made by someone who makes it seem easy), and an amazing view. The starters were too difficult to choose from, but we were assured that the choices we made were going to be good ones -- and they were. (I had the marrow and wife had the beet salad, but I assume the menu changes regularly). Mains were steak frites and a braised short rib... Cant speak for the former because my wife didnt let me have any (which means she liked it a lot) and mine was tender enough to not even need the knife. Decent wine selection and a knowledgeable bartender (as well as the rest of the staff) rounded out a birthday meal that will keep me coming back.

This was the best restaurant I have ever been too. First of all josh (our waiter who most definitely needs a promotion) was the best waiter ever, super kind and welcoming same with the chef super friendly and a great cook. The food was amazing. I had the steak frites medium well and it was so tender it just melted in my mouth, didn t even need a knife! For desert I had the creme brûlée and it was perfect sugar on top was perfectly melted and the batter was very nice and sweet. The view was beautiful, first josh said was to look at Venus in the sky, yes Venus who would of thought that a star looking satellite was Venus! The menu it self it pretty nice they have about 5 different main meals that change on a daily basis. Product is super fresh only like 1 or 2 days old. The restaurant is located on the Penthouse floor that is huge. Would 1000000% recommend this restaurant to anyone!

We dined out last night at the Le St Laurent a Penthouse restaurant not far from the 403...everything in Ottawa is only 10 minutes away. Great views of the Ottawa city skyline as well as the Gatineau... We started with martinis...gin...for my Mom and brother... and Grey Goose vodka for me. For starters James and I had beet salad...included in the salad were mellon ball size pickled apples...which were spectacular! Mom had the soup made with root vegetables and apple...she is still raving about it this morning. We selected our wines to have with the entrees...James selected a Pinot Noir, I selected a Grenache (I have always preferred reds as I tend to find whites too acidic), and Mom after sampling the entire selection of whites settled on the Pinot Grigio. For the mains Mom and I had the scallops and James the rabbit. Both dishes were great...complex tastes that were delicious. Dessert was Sticky Toffee Pudding with homemade vanilla bean ice cream for James and Creme Brule for Mom and I. I will note the caramelized sugar topping on the Creme Brule was just a tad thick for our liking but overall it was delish. Will definitely visit the restaurant again...special note...due to Covid-19, seating is very limited, and appreciated! PS...I need to add the staff was great...they make you feel welcomed and special!

I had the pleasure of celebrating my 30th birthday at Le St. Laurent (LSL). And it must go without saying- The experience was nothing short of memorable and definitely one for the books! Shannon (Manager), Ryan (Chef) and the LSL team went above and beyond to help assist in the success of my night. Prior to the date of the event Shannon and I worked closely together going over some of the details of the night - such as creating a charcuterie and appetizers along with some specialty non-alcoholic beverages. All of which was to be served as a prequel to the actual main course of the night. Shannon s attentiveness and time poured into helping me create an experience not only ensured that everything ran smoothly but that my guests had a great time. And that they did. On the day of I got to meet the chef and a few of the team, all of whom were extremely friendly and welcoming. The LSL staff were sure to adhere to any questions or concerns that may have arisen throughout the night which and I can t express how appreciative I am of that given we were a group of 20 people! The food was amazing and the plating was definitely worth all the pictures. Oh and let s not forget to mention the view ! Thank you LSL so much for such a wonderful night. If you re reading this review. Please go check this place out! And may your experience be nothing short of appetizing .

It was our first time here, and it was excellent. The (very) friendly and professional service made us feel very comfortable and at home. They took great care with Covid precautions, but it still felt like a normal evening out. The view looking out over Ottawa was beautiful. We shared a three beet salad with pickled apples and hazelnuts and a goat cheese croquet. Really wonderful. For dinner, we had the beef short ribs with brussel sprouts and potato pave. Im not a big fan of brussel sprouts, but these were really tasty. The short rib was cooked perfectly, tender and melt in your mouth. The other main was steak frites. The steak was medium rare, cooked perfectly, and the frites were seasoned very nicely. The portions were definitely not small, and well worth the price.
