Love their Pho. They don't use MSG and very clean meat. The large is VERY large, so if you're hungry this is the place to go.

Having lived in Japan this is the closest you'll get to authentic Japanese cuisine. It's a bit pricey but worth it. Call ahead for reservation and if you like there are private booths available downstairs.

On the higher end for both quality and price. They apparently have a delicious lobster poutine, but I usually get the burger or porterhouse.

Small little shack next to Kinki's Sushi that's been there since I can remember. Their fries are nice and soft and the sauce and cheese melt perfectly on them. A must try in Ottawa.

A must try desert for anyone visiting Ottawa. There is nothing healthy about it and it's definitely not gluten free, but if those don't matter to you... give it a shot.
