Wow. Was all I could think of as I left. From sit down to stand up, the whole experience was pathetic. What a shame, the restaurant has the look and feel...they obviously spent money setting up. The pork medallions were over cooked, cold and the portions very small. The server was young and very inexperienced. He mixed up our drinks twice, never gave us refills of water after asking "3" times, and overcharged us on our bill. For the quality of food you receive, the place is way overpriced. The couple beside us had a similar experience and recieved a $50 gift certificate for the poor service they got - which they promptly gave to us after watching what we went through. I never even bothered asking for the manager for one, I simply tore it up. The place is doomed if they don't make serious changes...people will figure it out.

Let the good times roll at these Ottawa happy hour hotspots

Let the good times roll at these Ottawa happy hour hotspots

The Hill Hour menu at Métropolitain Brasserie is served from 4 pm to 7 pm, as well as 9:30 pm to close. It’s fairly extensive, offering PEI oysters for $1.50, chilled jumbo shrimp for $1, and larger plates such as beef tips and horseradish mashed potatoes for $14. Although this beautiful restaurant’s happy hour menu focuses on seafood and other irresistible dishes, you can still enjoy a cocktail, beer or wine at a fair price. They have over 20 unique cocktails to choose from – all for $10, anytime.

With the pressed tin ceiling and the red banquette seating, the Metropolitain Brasserie feels like a slice of Montparnasse in Ottawa. All the classic dishes you love are available here: Coquille St. Jacques, steak au poivre, steak tartare, escargot. The Metropolitain also has Ottawa's largest fresh oyster bar. It's not cheap, but neither is it especially pricey, as far as French restaurants go. The patio is a lively spot in good weather. Open for lunch and brunch as well.

The parent restaurant of the Savoy, this busy French-style restaurant serves a wide range of sparkling wine cocktails. Sure, you can get a classic kir royal, but why not try a Champs Elysées (bubbly and Calvados) or Sicilian Kiss (sparkling wine with Disaronno and Southern Comfort)? If you prefer your bubbles straight up, there are almost a dozen champagnes and sparkling wines by the bottle, with some available by the glass. Another Wine Spectator award winner, Metro is also home to one of the city’s biggest oyster bars.
