Overpriced and small portions. If you want to walk away hungry and feeling ripped off, this is the place. The food and the service were actually not bad. I just disagree with the portions. Or reduce the price. $35 for a plate of maybe 5 pieces of steak... Really? At least give more fries or something. Or add a side salad.

The food was amazing!! The tuna tartare was off the chart. Perhaps the decor could better reflect the vibe of Westboro Would recommend and return!

Great service! The seating area was a bit cramped and the food arrived later than expected but the taste was superb! We ordered yellowfin tuna tartare, eggs Benedict with mushroom and fried chicken and waffle. Each of these items tasted fresh and delicious with beautiful plating. The tuna tartare looked beautiful and was absolutely delicious but came in a very small portion considering the price but otherwise the place is fantastic and definitely worth the price.

We ordered their Valentine's menu for two and were blown away by the quality of the food. We absolutely loved the arancini, tuna crudo, soup and fried chicken. The reheating instructions were helpful as well. Thanks for the wonderful meal!

Excellent food and cocktails. Went with 4 other friends and everyone loved the apps and their meals. Great service too!

Take-out review: food was exceptional and hard to pick a favourite but the duck was outstanding, so was the banoffee pie! And really appreciated the attention to detail - when packing up the meals (for three people having three courses - all different) staff ensured, no, were very specific in ensuring like temperature items were packed in separate bags. You’d think is would be obvious but the number of times I’ve pulled a salad from between two hot entrees is nothing short of disappointing.

We went to the Brassica last weekend to celebrate my wife's anniversary. We have always liked that restaurant in the past but sadly, our experience last weekend didn't meet our expectations... Our server was dressed almost too casual, and barely showed up during our entire meal. We waited 45 minutes between the appetizer and our main course ( the restaurant wasn't full...) Food was okay.. but not to the level of its price. It was on salty side, the mushroom toast appetizer had its bread completely burnt, Cod in main course was overcooked. On the other hand, the mushroom and duck tart as part of the blind menu in main course was phenomenal. However because of the overall experience, we decided to skip desert. I hope this was a one-off and our experience will be better next time because other restaurants in that category have their standards way higher on all fronts than what we experienced last weekend.

Practically perfect in every way. Top 5 meals I’ve had. Only request would be to turn down the lights by 2/3. The brightness gives it a diner feel when your food is worthy of much more.

Warm,clean, and inviting atmosphere. The website is user-friendly, and it was easy to make a reservation. Tea candlelit ambiance was very cute! Service was attentive to us! Very kind. The food overall was delicious and fresh. The shrimp tartine was not to my taste, but the miso roasted duck breast was amazing! Pricey but worth it! Overall, it's a great date spot/celebratory spot.

The food was the highlight. Empanadas were great, served as 3 small empanadas with a good balance of flavour. Ordered the blind surprise entree and really enjoyed it, a very balanced plate was served. Others in our party thought the mains were okay (Cornish Hen, Steak and Meat & Potatoes). Atmosphere I find to be a little lacking and it is very brightly lit, noise level was good for conversation, but the chairs were not very comfortable. I would go back, but I am not in a rush to do so.

We got the duck leg and it was delicious, tender and packed with flavour. The rest of the menu looked equally hardy and delicious - eager to try other dishes next time.

Montrealers visiting Ottawa and was pleasantly surprised on our supper at Brassica. This spot came highly recommended by Ottawa friends and it didn’t disappoint. Food was exquisite, like the mushroom on toast. If you’re a fungi person, this is the dish. The roasted duck breast was delectables. We opted for surprise appetizer and main course and was not disappointed.

Absolutely fabulous food & amazing service!! Each dish served at our table was a "hold in your mouth and enjoy" dish. Such excellent combinations of flavours. Presentation A++ Service A++++. My favourite: Cornish hen and the deep-fried carrot cake. We will ALL be back!

UPDATE: We had one of our best meals in Ottawa and felt my already 5-star review needed further praise. The entire Brassica team went above and beyond. The food remains excellent; their attention to allergens and dietary requests remains incredibly thorough; the patio is still one of the nicest on Richmond. However, our most recent experience proves that Brassica was a 5-star, but is now better than 5 stars—and that deserves mentioning. We had an enjoyable meal on their patio. Our server was nice and the food was fabulous. They were great about complying with dietary needs. Everything we had was great, but the standout winners were the duck and the flat iron steak. We will be returning.

The food is sensational. It’s been a while that I’ve been blown away by a dish, I was blown away by 5 dishes in one meal here! Every bite was so balanced and satisfying that I was making sounds the whole time. Literally hits you like a punch in the face and it didn’t miss a thing. Amazing work guys, please keep it up. The service was mediocre at best, transactional and made us feel like we’re an inefficient inconvenience to them, they weren’t rude though. If they can make their service as good as their food, this place would easily be Michelin stars worthy. Props to the kickass kitchen!

I was incredibly impressed by this restaurant and I'm super glad I found it, I'd give over 5 stars if I could! Starting with the service, it was excellent. Everything between calling us beforehand to ask about any dietary needs to just being super quick, friendly and knowledgeable and asking for feedback prior to our dinner just showed great initiative to go above and beyond. The food and cocktails were also phenomenal, the Made You Blush cocktail was amazing as well as the brassicas for the appetizer. The main was also absolutely delicious, a combination of foods you would never think to pair together but it was all so incredibly flavourful and pleasant. Lastly, COVID protocols were good in my opinion too between asking screening questions as we arrived, mask-wearing, tables far apart from one another and hand sanitizer at each table. I, will be returning!

Great service, really fast! Food was really good the fried chicken was awesome. I would have expected the atmosphere/decor to be better for the prices. Still great!

We had a delicious NYE dinner from Brassica. Everything travelled well and we were able to have near dine-in level experience at home.

Have been here a few times and service and food are always exceptional. I was here last night for my cousin’s birthday celebration and between 4 girls, we had the arincini, Caesar salad, mushroom toast and braised beef and duck confit. Recommend all. Oh and their banoffee pie is OUT OF THIS WORLD.

Omg... Are you looking for a culinary delight? A taste sensation? Somewhere new to celebrate the holiday season or a just an amazing meal? Look no further than Brassica. THE FOOD was delicious, fresh and creative. Astoundingly good food paired with gorgeous cocktails and service. Highly recommended.

What a great meal. Everything was really good. We were with others so tried lots of different options. The Caesar salad was so delicious and different with roasted broccoli. The fries with their aioli were crisp and so yummy. Duck breast was done medium rare and so good. The steak tartare was excellent. The others raved about the pork belly. What else can I say but I will be back

This was a very good experience. I got the steak and it was amazing. The service was friendly and the food had so much seasoning and flavour. The appetizer calamari was crisp and served with a very good aioli. And the desserts were heavenly. Very highly reccomend, however the prices are a little high.

Food and service was excellent. We had the tuna crudo, mushrooms on toast, and banoffee pie. The pic is tuna crudo.

Great service and delicious food. We got the mushroom toast, fried octopus , thick cut fries and banoffee pie. Our favourite was the mushroom toast, definitely a must if you love mushrooms. We will be returning! :)
