I had such a great time! I was there a Friday night with my friend, and our server was the best! Her name is Brooklyn and truly we will make sure she’s working every time we show up! The food was great and Brooklyn made sure we had a good time and enjoyed our meal. The new owners made this spot even better than before ❤️
Food was good but utensils were dirty, napkins were dirty, they only had one of the 5 beers on their menu. I ordered the steak and mac and cheese and they were out. Mango margarita was delicious but overflowing with ice. Overall it was a pretty meh experience.
The atmosphere was warm and welcoming, my boyfriend ate the best burger. The food is delicious The service was impeccable, with attentive and smiling staff who were able to respond to all our requests with professionalism. I particularly fell in love with their homemade dessert, which was a true work of art.
Came here for Happy Hour with some colleagues and we had a great time. I had the Chicken Burger with a salad. I asked for the dressing on the side and it came just as requested. The chicken was perfectly grilled. A bit crispy around the edges and tender and moist on the inside. I loved the spicy kick the sliced jalapenos provided. I got the Just a Girl cocktail and loved that too. We were served by the Manager, the ever so charming Tito because they were short-staffed that night. He was fantastic. We were there on a Wednesday and pretty much everyone else in the restaurant was having the all you can eat wings, lol. The wings looked delicious. Maybe we need to check that out sometime, haha. I definitely recommend J'TM Resto Bar.
I have been coming here since the opening in 2022, the service has always been impeccable. I have highly recommended them to friends and family. Wether you’re looking for a date night, a birthday dinner or night out with friends this is the perfect spot for you.
My partner and I dined at Ottawa's J’TM Resto Bar and had a great experience. The food was outstanding across the board. I enjoyed the shrimp linguine, which was perfectly seasoned with a tasty portion of shrimp. My partner opted for the steak macaroni and cheese, a rich and hearty dish with tender steak and creamy cheese that was absolutely delightful. We also shared the nachos with added Korean BBQ chicken, which offered a fantastic fusion of flavours. The service was attentive and friendly, making our meal even more enjoyable. Highly recommend JTM Resto Bar for quality dining experience!
Really tasty food Friendly service Washrooms were slightly dirty Music was at an appropriate level Beautiful decor 😍
I made our reservation at J’TM without looking at the menu or anything and just wow! We are blown away. The food, drinks, atmosphere and service was 5 star. We ordered the Shrimp Ceviche, Steak and Shrimp and Lamb Chops, all phenomenal. Best lamb chops I’ve ever had! It’s such a moody, aesthetic, cute date spot or girls night out spot. Try it if you have the chance!
Mac n cheese very good but worst steak in town and very average service
Amazing place, very welcoming & nice atmosphere
We have always had great experiences at your establishment in the past. Unfortunately, our recent experiences we were left feeling deceived and dissatisfied. The first occasion was on October 30th. We arrived, excited to enjoy our meal, only to find out that only wings were being served that day. This was a huge disappointment as we had been looking forward to the variety and quality we had previously enjoyed. This past Saturday, we made another reservation, eager to enjoy the plantains and ribs, which were key reasons for our visit. However, upon arrival, we were informed that both the plantains and ribs were unavailable. This, again, was very disappointing as these items were part of the main reason we chose to dine with you on this occasion. We understand that staff limitation or food shortages can happen, but we did not expect these issues to affect at the opening on Saturday. We truly value your restaurant and hope that adjustments can help restore the great experiences weve had in the past.
I had shrimp tacos and they were so yummy! I also asked for a double shot neat of 1800 Reposado--the waiter brought it over in the most elegant glass over a mirror tray that shimmered and dazzled as it made its way over to me while traditional nostalgic Mexican music from Guadalajara played.
Service was quick and polite. But not a place for foodies. More a place for drinks and 20 some to party or enjoy a good time. The music was very loud. The food was horrendous. First, we got there at opening and already there were things not available on the menu. The appetizers were really subpar. The crispy calamari tasted like they had just been unfrozen. The batter was excessive. Main course came, the veggies were under cooked, my salmon overcooked and didn t taste fresh. It came with a salad served with cucumbers and tomatoes that looked as though they had been sitting out for a while. Very mushy. I tasted it once and left the salad. My friend barely touched her burger and didn t like the food either. We were having a good time otherwise and didn t complain to anyone as we didn t want to ruin it for staff or our party. They came often to ask if the food was ok and I didn t comment as too much was wrong. I had given up. My recommendation to this place is to limit it s menu options but to propose a few prepared really well. Otherwise I do not recommend it and will not go back. TBH I m probably not their target clientele either. I went home and made myself dinner.
A Great Spot for Celebrations! I recently attended a party for a friend here, and the experience was fantastic. The staff were incredibly accommodating, going above and beyond to ensure everything went smoothly. Their attention to detail and exceptional service made the event truly special. Overall, I d give my experience a 4/5 and highly recommend this spot for hosting celebrations!
Jakob was so outgoing and so friendly! Great service and cocktails were looking very good !
Jakob was the best and his summer drink menu deserves to be seen
Made reservations for 6pm Sat evening. Got a call just after 5:30pm to let us know because of kitchen equipment malfunctioning, the reservation was pushed forward to 6:30pm. Got there, was seated and immediately asked to move as a couple a table over were arguing LOUDLY- not a pleasant start to the evening! Another couple left when seated at the same table. The manager did nothing to ask the fighting couple to stop. Sitting away, we could still hear the couple, making for an uncomfortable dining experience. It was our anniversary, and asked for a certain message on the dessert plate. They wrote the wrong message on the plate as well. Shrimp linguine was starchy and stuck together. Asked for ketchup for fries, was offered a spicy mayo instead. Will not be returning!
Never been more disappointed Saw this place on Instagram it looked really good, the food looked good and the atmosphere looked nice. Go there for the first time, the service was terrible. Our server was behind the bar drinking as we are still waiting on our drinks/refills. The food was not good, chicken was overcooked and so were the shrimp. For the price I would also expect fresh ingredients, the shrimp were definitely frozen. The sauce for both dishes was not good. The entire experience was disappointing. I unfortunately would not recommend this place and will not be going back :(
Very bad service, almost 1 hour wait for just chicken wings!! I had to leave without it! I still ordered pineapple juice, which was ROTTEN!!! Not good at all! Just disappointed, my expectations were higher for this place!
POOR!!! This restaurant was excellent but since the change of manager... We went to eat... it took 2 hours to receive our food which was cold and tasteless with horrible presentation. We were in a corner of the restaurant without heating so it was cold for a November evening. One person on our table received a salad with the lettuce core uncut so the salad was not washed. Afterwards, they gave my already started dish that I didnt like to the next table. They brought one persons dessert off the table BEFORE their entree. Honestly, it was mediocre. The quality of food has declined but prices continue to rise. I thank the honesty of the servers and the manager because he accommodated us with discounts on the bill. But... I will NEVER return.
Ever since the recent staff changes, the quality of the food has dropped significantly, which is disappointing as a regular customer. On a positive note, the new bottle girls and staff are wonderful; their energy and service are top-notch, and they work hard to create a great experience for everyone. However, I ve seen troubling posts on social media and have spoken to former staff members who confirmed that they weren t getting paid properly, including their tips. It s disheartening to see such dedicated staff being treated unfairly by management. These girls deserve to be compensated fairly for their hard work. Until management steps up and ensures these employees are paid what they re owed, I can t see myself returning.
The new owner was very welcoming and kind! Amazing vibes as always. Food was yum ! Drink was 10/10
The vibe was nice Food was yummmy New manager was amazing Thank youuu Food : 4/5 |
Very good service, exceptional staff. I recommend!!

Great ambiance & amazing food!! Would recommend for an any type of event, they have a really good service
Amazing fashion and vibe
Great food and vibes
Great vibes and fashion tips great food as well of course.
The waitresses were nice and on the ball. However, the food was slow coming out and our waiter was apologetic but seemed disorganised in general. We ordered the steak, which we asked for medium rare and it came out medium to well.
Amazing staff, great customer service. Spectacular prices I would highly recommend this place if youre looking for a good time
I love this place amazing bartender
Very nice ambiance and staff are very friendly! I would highly recommend for a night out.
A very pleasant place to spend time with friends or family.. *Jakob* makes the best cocktails in Ottawa, he is very kind and very efficient .. chef *Gradi* is the best cook, his dishes are incredible.. I highly recommend.. you will not be disappointed
Great bar shoutout to frank best barman
We only popped in for a drink. The drinks were okay. Not the best, not the worst weve had. Margarita tasted like a lime mix. Kind of sweet, not quite tart enough.
Food was absolutely delicious, the shrimp are huge. The feta dip is one of the most amazing dishes I ve had in a very long time. I had a conversation with the manger very down to earth man, very polite I would come here every week.
Best food in Ottawa
Food is really good, the jerk chicken dip is bless! Would definitely recommend!
Extremely friendly upon arrival, greeted with a smile right away. Staff were not afraid to give recommendations for drinks and food , my husband and I truly loved our experience. Will definitely visit again!
Excellent Service and delicious cuisine, Nikia served us very well
Service by Nikyia was impeccable, she took good care of our table in timely manner. Food was great, place really clean and cozy. I recommend this place. Food
This place is beautiful! Great vibes, amazing staff, and the best margaritas!
Had a reservation for brunch on Sunday. They forgot to open the restaurant...
FRANCK IS AMAZING!! A must try and really delicious food!
Flavourful food and amazing venue! I appreciated their Happy Hour menu and meal specials. Frank was our amazing waiter!!!!!!
Thanks to Frank for his kindness and his professionalism. J TM is one of the best restaurant in Ottawa. Food is excellent with a really fast service Food
Frank is the best Parking: It s all right Food : 5/5 |
Really generous and delicious portions for the price and impeccable service
Good service, the food was delicious and also the vibe. It s 10/10.
I review it as a bar not restaurant. I got there around midnight. Upstairs was open to patrons. This is not a dance bar but rather a pop where people stand and talk. There was a $10 cover charge to enter the bar (not sure for what since it is not a dance bar). I checked in downstairs too. Very darks with lots of empty dining tables. No dance stage. I left after 15 minutes. Walking on Clarence or in the market was a lot more fun than staying in this bar.
I had a birthday dinner at the restaurant this weekend. It was really beautiful, the food was great and the mocktails were delicious. Definitely would recommend
The food and service was amazing, I had chicken wings with hot sauce on the side ( I believe that the hot sauce is handmade because it tested nice and fresh), the fries is to die for loved it. The vibe was really good, I loved the decor and the pick toilet, the music was good, I can t wait to go back for another amazing dinner. I definitely recommend J TM
Great food, great service, great drinks
Frank was the best bartender ever; a service like no other! The vibes were unmatched, even for a Tuesday night. Definitely what I needed today. Will definitely return
Lana was a fabulous waitress! She is not only welcoming but also ensured our food came in great timing and perfect quality! 10/10 service would highly recommend! Food
Lana gave phenominal service, and whoever aas on aux was amazing and needs a raise!
if I could give this 6 stars I would but sadly I can only rate it 5, the best waitress ever yuh hear , plus they playing future here so 10/10 music and amazing food Shoutout to Lana cool ah waitress
amazing atmosphere! our server Lana was incredible, we felt welcomed immediately and were well taken care of the whole evening. food and drinks came quickly and tasted delectable.
The atmosphere and service here is great. Loved the R&B music playing in the background. Shout out to our server Lana.
Cool looking place and plays nice music. Frank said our party would give a 10% discount for a review and Lana our server has been very kind so I d say the service is great. The steak, veggies and mashed potatoes I ordered were very good as well.
Came with some friends and everything was great. Our servers Lana and Frank were awesome and the atmosphere was great. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a good night!
The food was incredible. The staff was even more Incredible. Shout out to Frank and Lana. Truly the best at their craft
Nikya gave great service! Very personable and great energy
This place is Huge. Great for large groups. Owner is very accommodating for requests. Food : 4/5
I came here for a bite after work. Ive had appetizers and drinks on a different occasions but I wanted tried something for dinner. I tried the Peri-Peri ribs and was impressed. I appreciated the service by Tito, and Patrick, as well as Lana who seated me. I will be back!
Frank was one best hosts, server, and owner I have met at a restaurant. Premium service to the finest. The Smoked Apple Whiskey drink was to die for!
Great food for a good price. Great service. Nice space. The music was loud but the waitress helped by directing us to an area that did not have speakers right overhead. Would definitely go back.
Best best food! Best Service! Management is awesome! From the time you walk in to when you leave they take care of you with a smile. They remember their clients. They are the ultimate best!
Really good food! Great customer service, fav place to bring ppl when they visit ottawa
Amazing food/service experience ever, I loved it. Delicious food, generous portions, great coktails as well. I will definitely come back! Only suggestion is : since the waiting time for the food to be ready is quite long (which I understand since they are all fresh cooked) it would be great to have some appetizer or bread/butter to eat meanwhile. Other than that, everything was perfect. Thank you for the great service and food.
Went for a date night and was our first time dining in byward and we loved it!! We go out quite a bit so hard to impress a little. We both got steaks that could not have been better, and the mashed potatoes were amazing!! They gave us a complimentary champagne glass when we first sat down which was such a great little thing they did that made us have a great first impression. I believe our servers name was Titto and he was so kind and friendly we loved him. Loved the outfits of the severs, went nicely with the vibe of restaurant. Perfect timing for everything, nothing was rushed, food came out at a great time.The vibes of the restaurant was so nice, classy and chic. The champagne, the server, the food, the decor, we absolutely loved it all. Will definitely be coming back a lot and it really brought our attention to byward, we loved ittt!
The service was beautiful they were very nice and fun to talk to, the food was beyond amazing when it came to taste and the presentation was out of this world. Definitely recommend for dates, birthdays, or family gatherings 10000%.
Went here on a whim for wing night and can say that they were pretty good and the prices are quite affordable for all you can eat. Overall, the wings are well worth the price and worth getting at least once.
Unbelieveble staff and security abuses. Beware of Keisha a repeat assaulter. A wonderful night with friends on the patio was utterly ruined by appalling staff behaviour. One employee repeatedly bumped into us, then spilled a drink all over my dress. Frustrated, I simply vented to my friend about the constant disruption. Incredibly, another staff member, completely out of line, inserted herself and threatened to have us thrown out. This hostile employee, Keisha, even shoved me and yanked on my purse. Security, witnessing this disgusting display, did nothing to stop her harassment, instead forcing us to leave despite our complete innocence. The situation became a nightmare. Even as Keisha jumped over security and assaulted one of my friends, security only restrained us! We pleaded with them, utterly bewildered, but they continued to escort us out. The manager we finally spoke to outside admitted this Keisha is a known problem, with a history of assaulting patrons and causing similar scenes. Its outrageous that such a dangerous individual is allowed to work there, and that security would be complicit in her disgusting behaviour.
The salmon did not disappoint, not only was the presentation amazing but it taste soooo good. service was fast and friendly. I love that they have several gluten free and vegan options. not to mention the decor is so cute, I will definitely be coming back.
Had the calamari and shrimp Linguine. Food is delicious!! Service is great and friendly as well. Our waitress Nikila was very attentive and friendly!!
JTM has top notch vibes! Great food, drinks and music. I go every Wednesday for wings that Im completely convinced are best in the city by a long shot, the wings are never frozen never breaded (the best way) and GF! Super friendly and professional servers that make you feel welcome. I bring new faces with me every week because everyone has to try these wings and they leaving saying the same thing....those were the best wings Ive had in while and its nothing short of the truth. Side note go on Wednesdays its all you can eat wings for $20 with a purchase of a cocktail you wont be disappointed EVER!
I ordered the mango salad along with fries hoping for a nice hearty salad. The salad alone was $18 so I was expecting it to be a proper meal but it was pretty much 5 pieces of mangos along with some fluffed up greens layed out on a large plate to look bigger than it was and no filling base. A mango salad is supposed to be predominantly mangos and if not it should at least have some kind of filling base. After eating the salad and fries I was still very hungry. I wouldnt recommend this place.
Best food in the cityy. Great staff ALWAYS GOOD VIBESS
Jtm is my go-to spot whenever im in byward market. Franks service went above and beyond my expectations!! He made sure to make me feel right at home and gave me an amazing recommendation for the most affordable amazing food.
Our waitress, Nikya was terrific and extremely helpful.
This Place is Nice & The Best maybe I like Nikya service it Good
Great service! Tito was amazing!
Excellent margaritas and tacos. Best tacos that we have ever had.
Kitchen and bartender staff is amazing. The kitchen even hooked me up with an emergency onion to go.
The food here is to die for. Really nice restaurant and cannot wait for the front and back patios to open for the summer!!
We had a great time. Frank was definitely really great at his job and. A good vibe overall :)
My friends and I booked for a birthday party, we arrived 7:30 pm, ordered the drinks and got them at 9:15 pm, nearly 2 hour wait for the drinks alone !!!! Poor service !!!!
We had an amazing time at JTM! The fold was incredible, the service was quick and super friendly and Jen, our server was knowledgable and helpful with her recommendations. My partner absolutely loves chicken wings, so we came for the unlimited wings on Wednesday and he was really impressed. Not greasy, cooked well and all 3 flavours he tried were delicious. I had a mocktail mojito and it was delicious - even without the rum the ingredients were fresh and well balanced. Tito was working behind the bar and also came to check on us a few times and really made us feel welcome and valued. He checked in on us and how we were enjoying our meals and experience and was just really lovely and kind overall. We will absolutely be back and would recommend them to anyone for a lovely date night, a fun night with friends or pretty much anything else.
The Best Restaurant to visit in Ottawa! , very respectful place that makes you feel like you re at home , impressive service , Great Drinks , clean place , great music , and most importantly amazing food I would highly recommend this restaurant to anyone!! 5 stars all Around
Tito wasss superrrrr niceeeeee and frendlyyyyyyy love my experience at je t aime
This is now one of my new favourite places in Ottawa. The food is absolutely incredible. So flavourful and great vegetarian options. I recommend the mushroom taco and jerk mushroom cheese dip. They also have great mocktail options. Service was also very personable and attentive. Vegetarian options: Really great vegetarian options. The jerk mushroom cheese dip is delicious and the mushroom taco tasted like steak but not in the weird manufactured plant-based meat way. I also hear the mushroom burger is very good.
The food arrived two hours later the servants took a long time to come see us
Came in for unlimited wings night on Wednesday. Loved the atmosphere and food was great. Servers were very kind and attentive. Will definitely be back often.
One of the best beyond burgers I ve have in Ottawa
Big place, if you like your wings go on Wednesday but unfortunately the service was bad.....
Certainly one of the worst restaurants in the region. The service was extremely long and it was small portions. The price of the glasses was exorbitant. The server made mistakes several times. And the worst part of all this? When we arrived to pay, we noticed that the server added a 20% tip to our bills without notifying us. Avoid at all costs!
VERY GOOD SERVICE . I LOVE IT ! EVERYTHING IS AMAZING SPECIAL THANK YOU FOR ALL THE WAITERS THEY ARE GREATTTT !
I asked them to turn down the music because the speaker quality is horrible. This was during dinner time and it was not possible for us to have a proper conversation without yelling. Their response was to turn the volume up even louder. To management, whoever was the DJ on Jan 27, 2024, you should address this. We would have stayed longer and ordered more item, but it was enough to drive us away.
Fav place in Ottawa
Fun workshop experiences and would recommend.
Title: A Memorable Night of Celebration at JTM Supper Club On a stormy Friday night in January, my wife and I embarked on an unforgettable birthday celebration at JTM Supper Club. From the moment we arrived, we were enveloped in an atmosphere of warmth and hospitality that set the tone for an extraordinary evening. Upon entering, we were greeted by a team of attentive staff members who made us feel incredibly welcome. Their genuine enthusiasm for ensuring our experience was exceptional was evident from the start. We had reserved a cozy booth and opted for bottle service, a decision that certainly elevated the festivities. As we settled into our booth, the ambiance of the club began to captivate us. The DJ skillfully curated a lively mix of Latino beats, which had the entire crowd, including us, dancing the night away. The energy in the room was infectious, and we found ourselves swept up in the joyous atmosphere. Throughout the evening, our bottle girl provided impeccable service, ensuring our glasses were never empty and attending to our every need with grace and efficiency. Her attentiveness added an extra layer of luxury to our experience, allowing us to fully immerse ourselves in the celebration. One of the most memorable moments of the night was when the entire staff came together to wish my wife a happy birthday. Their genuine smiles and heartfelt well-wishes made her feel truly special, and it was a touching gesture that we will always cherish. As the night came to a close, we found ourselves reluctant to leave the warmth and excitement of JTM Supper Club. We departed with hearts full of gratitude and memories that will last a lifetime. A heartfelt thank you to the entire team for an unforgettable evening, and we eagerly anticipate our next visit to this remarkable establishment.
Great food, nice ambiance. DJ not too open-minded and service took a bit longer
Great food, the lighting, and the atmosphere was amazing. Waited a little too long for the food, but I did not hold it against the team as it was a busy Valentines night. Would recommend going here a day before or after a holiday to avoid the crowd and get your delicious food quicker. I would recommend they keep extra food in stock for special occasions as they were out of quite a few options last night. Overall, I highly recommend the place.
Food was great. Lots of variety and whoever was on the grill crushed the burger, ribs, and steak. Highly recommend. The atmosphere was solid. Very well done. Service was dreadful. Barley around, 30 min for a tea, and when she did bring it no milk or sugar? Our server sat at the bar on her phone and paid no attention to us....and we were the only table. The only reason we tipped was because we know some of it goes to the back of the house staff.
The service was great! Very welcoming. Would have been nice if they didnt serve croutons on my friends gluten-free dish though.
I made a reservation for Christmas Eve at 9:00 and the restaurant was closed!!! My Christmas was ruined!!!
Had a good time with my family. Food and service was good. Will definitely be back.
I had the the blackened and my boyfriend really love the ribs. The music is nice.
The food is excellent!
We organized an event at the restaurant and it was perfect. One of the managers welcomed us warmly and was very involved in helping us organize everything. The atmosphere was great, the staff very nice and approachable and the food so good! We will undoubtedly do lots of other events at J TM. Thanks for the experience!
Food and cocktails were delicious! took way too long for our food to be ready tho. The server was very knowledgeable & attentive, would ve been 5-star if the food didn t take 45 minutes to come out
My margarita was good. The steak mac and cheese was decent. The plantains were good, they add honey or some kind of glaze to them which was interesting. The server was very nice but slow despite the restaurant being pretty empty. Lots of waiting and sitting around while staff wasn t super busy. There were also messy things like a Christmas tree box with things in it in plain sight for guests. Food items didn t all come out at the same. So half your meal would show up and several minutes the other half. We had to ask for things more than once which was annoying. We also didn t receive itemized receipts which was off putting. You have no idea what you ve been billed for. If they improve their customer service (e.g. come by and ask how the food is a few minutes after dropping it off, remembering orders) and pay attention to small touches (e.g. not leaving mess out) J TM has the potential to be really great.
Went there for dinner and had blackened chicken as well as salmon with the jerk dip to start and the food was phenomenal. Our server was also part owner and was exceptional. Highly Recommend.
Great atmosphere, very friendly staff and the food was amazing.It s been a while since I was served food with so much flavour. I will definitely come back and I highly recommend!!!
OMG, where to start this is simply the place to be in Ottawa. Amazing location, beautiful venue, loved the decor and the flower wall, the staff was super friendly and helpful, playlist and atmosphere were perfect. Everything they recommended us we picked and we were more than happy with, ( wine , wings , steak and shrimps and crème brûle) everything was perfect. We are staying another night in Ottawa and I think we ll go again for the wings. My compliments to the chef/owner
The food was phenomenal, had the dip with the Naan bread to start. The bread was fresh and warm, it was delicious, I could taste notes of sourness and spice in the dip and it paired well with the softness of the bread. The burger had a very solid texture with a very pure beef taste, overall prepared very well. I have been to many restaurants around the world and Im thoroughly impressed. Our server seemed experienced and was very gracious in serving our table of 12. I had a delightful experience at this restaurant and I will recommend it to all of my friends and family. This restaurant will leave a legacy that many of the restaurants could dream of leaving. Giving their customers a life changing experience. I will be returning to this restaurant as soon as I come across a situation where I need to impress. Thank you for the amazing service, I will be dreaming of those flavors I savored so thoroughly tonight.
I am blown away! The food was delicious! Yummy yummy!
One of my favourite places in the city. High end resto bar by day and nightclub by night. Be sure to try the Jerk Dip and the Blackened Chicken it might change your life. If you ve had that already, try the Shrimp Linguini. Don t forget to check out the wines they know what they re doing. The house red alone is a great choice. 5 stars hands down.
Amazing food and the ambiance & bartenders were great!
Amazing food!!! , Wait time was a bit long but food was worth the wait. They have a live Dj. Great atmosphere!
JTM has a fresh vibe.
Horrible and cold food. Beautiful aesthetic and good service but I have never been so disappointed. We were a fairly large group and not one person liked their food. Maybe we have have high standards but this was honestly worse than pub food
My experience at JTM was , I contacted the owner to book a table a little last minute and he was really flexible, fast and efficient and understanding. The atmosphere was calm, warm and cozy. Very exquisite food. My guests loved their dishes. Music-wise, I would have liked more of the 20 s style of this century :) apart from that. Everything was perfect. Wheelchair accessibility: I didnt see an elevator probably not suitable for disabled people.
Mira was an amazing server for our very large group!! She made sure we had all the food and drinks that we needed. She made sure everyone had the right bill and kept checking on us. Absolutely love her.
The service was amazing, food was amazing . Service from frank was incredible! Would definitely come back
Service level was very good. Our server Franck handled it very well, was calm the whole time. Could be very overwhelming but Franck handled it very well. Thank you
We were a large group and the service was still outstanding! Frank did a great job managing everyones needs and getting our meals in a timely manner!
Food, place, music, vibe everything was perf even for a slow sunday.
Great vibe, food and service.
This place is the best in town, Frank my server was soo great at making me feel at home and the food (steak) was cooked to perfection!! Definitely brining everyone I know! Dietary restrictions: I m gluten and dairy free. They were so easy to accommodate!
Amazing vibe and service! We were served by Frank who just made us laugh and made sure we were well taken care of! Definitely recommend
Best place in Ottawa...
It s a great place with great staff! One of the staff, Frank was especially helpful!!
Highly recommend!! Frank was awesome
The food was amazing, I had the jerk dip and salmon (highly recommend trying) Holy cow! So delicious! Service was good and the atmosphere was very modern and cozy.
Even though we had a reservation we still had to wait a while. It took a long time for food to arrive and for people to order food. It s a good pace if you are ordering drinks. Food was okay, the pesto was overpowering. The jerk dip was pretty good.
Great place with excellent vibes
What an amazing place to discover. You have to try it out... the food is outstanding, the service is amazing and you will definitely have a great time.
Was there one night and other than the horrible service and rude owners there was a BULLET shot from inside the bathroom that went through the space people were occupying!!! They didnt even shut down as the music was so loud people didnt know gunshots were occurring around them. Dangerous place dont go here. Wheelchair accessibility: Its not
I had a great time there for dinner with my wife. Loved the food and the vibe. Music was a little too loud Recommended dishes
They hands down have the best mushroom burger Ive ever tried! Needs mods to be vegan (no mayo, no cheese). The side salad was very fresh. And the cauliflower wings were the crispiest Ive ever had! The server was so good, she was slammed but came to us often and made sure we were good. Place slowly turns into a dance club on the weekends. DJ was smoking hot! Love love loved my night.
Service was slow, and the waitress has an attitude. The food wasn t even good, my salad was drowning in oil and the fries were way too spicy.
the service was slow, food took a long time, the waitress had an attitude. the fries was abused with spices and soggy. it was not eatable.
This was more than good food it was a dinning experience !! When you want a vibe this is the only place to go !! Family service by the owner !!!
My experience at this Resturant has been so amazing. Kindness with all the staff. Great food, great service, and will defo come back again! Vegetarian options: Yes they do Dietary restrictions: Yes they do Parking: Yes there is Kid-friendliness: Very friendly
The food was delicious. The staff is great. We had a really good night. Well go back for sure.
The food is absolutely amazing! The have the best chefs in the city and service is always great. Highly recommended for a great night out. Not to mention, they play great music!
The quality of the food is deplorable. The service is good! The menu is not good
Hands down the best food we ve had in a while. We had our friends birthday dinner here and the food and atmosphere was . Service was excellent also, Frank was awesome and went above and beyond. We will definitely be going back! If you haven t been yet, it s a must. Cost we found reasonable for the quality. The Blackened Salmon was exceptional, and the music Dietary restrictions: I m Celiac and often it find it hard to have options when going out to restaurants, at J TM there were MANY options and clearly Labeled. Very much appreciated.
My boyfriend and I stopped in to check out the restaurant while waiting for our reservation at another restaurant, so we grabbed a couple of drinks and some sweet potatoes fries. The fries were very good, and the drinks were good too. But when we asked for our bill our waitress very quickly cleared our table without asking if we were done, we were distracted looking outside and we didnt notice, and before we could say anything she had poured out my boyfriends drink which was more then half full still. We were a little shocked, paid and left to make our reservation. This left a bit of a sour taste in our mouths as the cocktails are rather pricey to just be poured out.
The food is incredible Best Plantain in the city!
Celebrated my bday at JTM last month , I m still in awe of how their team teamed up with my girls to throw me the party of my dreams I am forever grateful !!!! From giving us the space to create the vibe we wanted and catering to all of my needs!!! Big S/O to all of them for treating all of my guest like family but treating me like a superstar!!!!!!!! Highly recommend for dinner and after party!!!!!
My review will be only a bar service and drink. We came here for a quick drink. We got seated at the bar because we only wanted to get a drink. I can say that the bartender and the hostess were both very nice. We both got an expresso martini and it was really good, it had this cinnamon flavor to it This place was pretty full, loved that they had a open kitchen. Would definitely come back here to try the food and more drinks
Amazing place, the team is great friendly and efficient. When it comes to the food not many places in downtown Ottawa offer this level of variety while making it accessible. A great place to take out a new date and if you stay long enough the upstairs turns into a party 2 for 1.
The food is ridiculously good, JTM is one of the best things to happen to Ottawa.
This is crazy we waited an hour for the food. The rice was good. Dont know if its cause of our expectation but on a scale of 1 to 10 we would give a 6.5. meanwhile the serve was really nice Parking: Its a real headache to find parking. Yall know downtown
Amazing food and great atmosphere. Got the Salmon and rice, cooked perfectly! Frank is extremely friendly and made sure I had everything I needed. Will be back for sure.
Cosmo was too sweet. Espresso martini was good. Kale salad was great, there was a good ratio of kale to other ingredients. However this is just another one of those places in the market that charge like they re downtown Montreal or Toronto. Too expensive for what it is.
The food was amazing. The beef burger, plantains are fries were incredible. Thank you!
Food was very well prepered and flavorful (tempura & chicken sandwich). Their fries are exceptional although as a side it was lacking quantity. If the side of fries was larger, this would be my go to place for a drink and a snack. I have to admit, I left a bit hungry but I have a healthy appetite. Food quality is high. Dietary restrictions: They have a dedicated fryer, great offerings for those with Gluten Allergies.
The food was exquisite Strongly recommend. I had a great time, music was good, very friendly environment, service was quick
Good service, good vibes :)
Best place in town. Go check it out
Amazing food! From the cocktails to the appetizers and mains, everything is phenomenal. I ve been here a few times now and every time I love it. One of my favourite restaurants in Ottawa!
The food is amazing!! The steak Mac&Cheese has a hold on me! The food is rich in flavour, portions are great as well! The cocktails are just as great, not water down, mixed just right and they have a great variety so there s something for everyone. The atmosphere, is great wether you want to lounge with friends, host a birthday diner or enjoy the ottawa night life, J TM offers all the above and more. The staff is friendly, patient with large parties and will accommodate your needs! Definitely a Go-to for my group of friends!
the service is very bad and the food even less so. its unnecessarily expensive
Great experience all round!!!
Excellent all around!
Great service all around!! Highly recommend
The food was salty AF , we had to ask our waitress for the same things twice. She had our orders wrong. We waited 20 minutes to get the bills, she never came to see us after we got the boxes to go. We had to go get our bills ourselves. We could see her chilling at the while we were waiting.
Food was very well presented and very delicious, and plentiful. Excellent service. Jen was an absolutely outstanding personality. Lobster sliders were the speciality of the week
Great place, my family of 15 came to eat and the food with service was excellent. Tito and the Chef keep up the great service. Thank you for attending my family.
celebrated my birthday at this venue and, regrettably, left behind a highly significant gift on one of their tables. I contacted them the following day, and their team assured me they had located it. Anticipating a smooth resolution, I returned the following week since they are closed on Mondays and Tuesdays. However, upon my arrival, the staff seemed unaware of the situation and claimed to have no knowledge of the item. I was met with minimal assistance from one of the employees. It is surprising that the management didnt secure the found item more diligently. While I acknowledge that it may not be entirely their responsibility, it was disappointing that the venue, after confirming the items discovery, didnt take better care of it and required me to make the drive for no reason.I hope management sees this so they are more careful about people s items they claim they find.
Food is decent, ribs are really good. Dont come here for launch unless you want to wait 20+ minutes for a glass of water.(ps: launch session only has one waitress)
OMG The dishes were EXQUISITE. WAAWW chapo!!
This place was amazing. Just by fluke I stopped by, the restaurant was beautiful, amazing music and vibe, my server was great & the food was the bomb. Must try the nachos so unique, the jerk dip was so good and interesting. A definite must try
The food is good. And I enjoyed the Nigeria Music Food
Solid place! Really cool atmosphere, lighting and music, its a great date spot ;) The food is also excellent. Highly recommend the naan and cheese dip starter as others have echoed, and the blackened chicken for those who eat meat The sweet plantains here are also phenomenal! Overall, a great resto in Ottawas byward ^^
10/10 would recommend. The food is made with care and is super delicious. The manager was the one who served us and he was truly amazing. Provided great services to everyone and asked us if we needed something and if everything was good, and of course was super fun and made the ambience 100% better :) Amazing experience and will definitely be coming back again!!!!
Nice atmosphere! Service was great
Amazing food and atmosphere. Shoutout to Tito and Frank for always providing excellent service. One of my favourite spots in Ottawa for a good time. We will definitely be returning
Brunch menu was nice. Shared the avocado toast and feasted on the steak and egg. Excellent experience at this location.
The place is really pretty . The steak poutine is a must try and if you are a cocktail lover they have delicious and pretty cocktails. Crème brûlée never disappointss!!!!!
Food and music is all the way on a
Pros: Service was great, server was very kind and knowledgeable, music was cool, steak was well cooked, sweet plantain was good Cons: mango daiquiri was bland, main course took 40 minutes to come, my appetizer never showed up, mac and cheese and rice were not as flavourful as Ive had in other Haitian restaurants Overall, vibe is decent but food takes too long to arrive and really underseasoned for a Haitian inspired restaurant
Needed to make a last minute reservation for 17 people on Sunday evening, JTM not only accommodated us but they provided excellent service. For many of my guests it was their first time there and they all said that the food was phenomenal and they will definitely return. They have a variety of delicious food options, which always makes it tough to decide what to get. I would recommend the Steak Mac & Cheese, Steak Poutine, Perri Perri Ribs which are my personal favourites. Honestly a 10 out of 5 stars from me!!
The worst service
Lovely spot, to dine or party.
Vegetarian options: The fried Cauliflower is amazing Food
I love the place, the people, the food and the atmosphere. I ll definitely recommande this place. 5 stars
Distinguishing food and great vibes. Would highly recommend to anyone !
mediocre would be generous....group of 8 seated in non-descript, cold room brutal.. The service was excellent, attentive and pleasant, Cocktails well mixed, beer cold. As for the food....If that was the only thing being rated in this review it would be 1 star. Blackened fish in particular was reminiscent of frozen filet quality, I could go on... weve experienced many superior options in the vicinity.
Amazing food and awesome music and vibe! Will come back with friends for sure next time we re in Ottawa.
Was excited to try this place.we had the blacken Fish and Chicken with rice , The food had no flavor. very disappointed. will not be going back.
Best place in ottawa for a birthday dinner party with the best food
Bartender working the night of DEC 3rd overcharged for shots then had an attitude and acted up about me confronting him about it. Keep an eye on your staff they re overcharging your patrons and pocketing the difference
Lovely restaurant and bar,
Recently hosted an event for a large federal network here in celebration of the holidays and I keep hearing from our members just how much they enjoyed getting together and for some, discovering J TM resto bar for the first time. The vibes, music, food and décor were excellent! I also want to give a huge shout out and thanks to our server Laura and the bartender who was on shift that night. They did a great job and were very patient with our group. I say thank you also to Jennifer and the rest of the management team for helping me put on a great event!
I have a great experience anytime I have been here.
