A Northern Italian kitchen inspired by the Bacari of Venice.

Our menu is inspired by tradition and dictated by the quality and availability of ingredients. We play off the similarities between the climates of Eastern Ontario and Northeast Italy, and create our take on classic dishes made with seasonal game, seafood and vegetables. Plus, sometimes we’ll just add whatever we want.

Offers

  • 5 a 7 - Bacaro

    Multiple dates available
    Mon - Wed - 17:00 - 19:00
    On practically every calle, salizada and ruga in Venice, you’ll find a Bacaro – a casual place to grab a glass of wine or Prosecco and a bite to eat, known as “cichèti.” Bacari are Italy’s answer to the pub, and cichèti are the Italian answer to Spanish tapas. Italians have an answer for everything. Situated at the rear of the restaurant, our Bacaro upholds the Italian tradition of togetherness. It’s the perfect place to meet friends after work, or to share a casual glass of sparkling wine and a small bite to eat.

    An amazing experience overall. Bar seats with attentive and informative service with Quinn. Superbly crafted cocktails made with slight adjustments to meet our tastes. The menu is limited but offers amazing tastes for every palate. Plates are shareable, food is expertly prepared and delicious. Butternut squash mezzaluna steals the show!

    Super expérience, le restaurant est magnifique, service impeccable. Que dire de la vaisselle !!! Pour la nourriture, des haut et bas, il a toujours un arrière goût anormal ou étrange ! On aime ou pas. Pour moi ça été 50/50, mais je ne peux rien dire sur la qualité des ingrédients et les présentations.

    Great service from Sebastien! He was very welcoming, not rushing us and super toughful. We ordered a few dishes to share, some of them we enjoyed more, like the butternut squash with risotto, which was very well balanced with great flavors. The pasta were fresh, but wished there was more in the plate. Because of this, I would recommend to go for a few bites and drinks (although wine by the glass can be quite expensive) with friends, but I know that it would not satisfy my boyfriend’s big appetite.

    We've had great experiences at North and Navy, so this trip felt out of character. We had minor issues with the waitress; however, this may have been inexperience. Typically the staff are outstanding. We were most disappointed in the food. We understand that there needs to be staples on every menu, but that lack of rotation on the antipasti and primi was quite discouraging. It's not really incentivizing us to return often. The main course selections were also disappointing. Both the fish and the lamb were very underwhelming and under seasoned. Dessert was a complete miss and to their credit we were not charged which was a nice gesture. The atmosphere, music and overall vibe are enough to have us come back and try again at some point.

    Overall excellent experience. Gorgeous, well-kept dining room, outstanding food, attentive service. A couple of wobbles during the evening, but overall one of Ottawa’s best - great for a memorable date night.

    Food was average, some flavour combinations were weird…such as sour mushroom risotto. The server was rushing us to order and pay the bill. The quantity and quality of food was not worth the high prices
