    Perch is one of the very best restaurant I have been to. I recently ate at a Michelin star restaurant and my latest meal at Perch was close to on par. The service was outstanding! Cannot recommend this restaurant enough.

    An excellent meal and excellent service. One of the most interesting tasting menus we have had in a while. The wine/cocktail pairing was exceptionally well done.

    My daughter’s experience was excellent as she is pescatarian. Mine was less so. I had asked if a vegan diet could be accommodated and was assured it could be. I was confident the restaurant would as I even got a phone call a couple of days in advance to ask if I ate honey, which I don’t. However, most of my tasting menu tasted of fish. It might have been done with seaweed for flavouring, but I did not enjoy it. If you are vegan and miss seafood, this could be a great choice for you.

    This was one of the most special meals of my life. Some of the most unique food I’ve come across, the attentiveness of the staff is amazing, with the best drinks to tie it all off. I left here with so much inspiration to push myself further in this industry to hopefully work along side people like this in the future. I left here with amazing memory’s and a few recipes. Considering I don’t even like fish and I ate every bite with enthusiasm is a testament the quality the team pushes out. I recommend this to experience to everyone 11/10 thank you perch.

    This was the best meal I have had in Ottawa. The service was polite and to the point, the food was exceptional, and the atmosphere was minimalist and beautiful. I cannot recommend this dining experience enough.

    Perch was absolutely amazing.. the food was fabulous, as was the service and ambience of the place. They were able to beautifully accommodate my gluten intolerance, providing two different kinds of bread throughout the tasting experience.. highly recommend for a fancy and fun dining night out.
