Oz Kafe

Excellent service, great atmosphere, and possibly the best charcuterie we've had in Ottawa. Highly recommend!

Superb food. Great friendly service

Food was great however the dessert was still slightly frozen so it was not fresh. If it were not for the dessert I would have given 4 stars on food. The music was a tad loud making it uncomfortable to have a conversation. Service was prompt but the waitress seemed irritable and came off as rude. Maybe it was an off night under the stresses of covid restrictions and low bookings. I would give them a second chance.

I had the eggplant dish which was delicious, very flavorful. For dessert the baked apple was perfect and light. Excellent COVID protocols, felt very safe. Hope to return sometime soon!

We always enjoy OZ Café. Although we miss the old location and chef JAMIE, we still really like going to OZ.

Staff was great, and patient !
Thank you team

The food was amazing ... loved trying to identify the unusual flavours and ingredience. The young lady who waited on us was very helpful when I asked questions about the food and extremely conscientious and friendly. The overall experience was wonderful and I have already recommended it to others.

Thank you

We had a fantastic dinning experience. The stake wasn’t as tender as I would have liked - but it was still so delicious. Always have a fantastic experience time at Oz.

My go to place for casual after work and family celebrations and everything in between. From well crafted, imaginative cocktails and hearty toothsome appetizers to melt in your mouth, utterly surprising desserts, I know I will have an "Aha" palate moment.
Am thrilled that Oz has a heated patio.

We didn't feel we were acknowledged enough. They didn't even ask us our drink order for a long time. Wasn't terrible but wasn't a great experience either. The bill made me gasp! The food wasn't close to as good as we had hoped. Can make a better meal at home and for way less money. Won't be back.

Despite COVID-19 restrictions, food was excellent and patio setting was very nice.

Great value, perfect service, quiet patio, food good

Great staff. Very accommodating and helpful. Great mushroom risotto and pasta with Ragu sauce!

I ordered the bouillabaisse dish, 7/10
My sister got the sirloin dish 10/10
Dessert was good
Service was good, could have been better.
Overall, a beautiful place in the heart of the market & would probably go back and give it another shot.

It was kind of ordinary. I liked the food but I wouldn’t go there again. It was cold. People were smoking. They were moving stuff upstairs and pounding on the floors, constantly - we brought this up the staff and they just shrugged (like the smoking). There was no music. It was a sad lonely cold place with staff that felt like we owed them. Never going back.

We ate outside. Nice atmosphere and safe environment. Service and food were excellent.

Food and service was excellent. It was a chilly evening, perhaps in the fall some large heaters would be helpful, but otherwise everything was great!

Outstanding food and service - a definite crowd pleaser.

Food was cold and overpriced
Service was slow
Very disappointed

We had a great dinner on the patio! Menu needs some improvement with respect to labeling for dietary restrictions.

A big disappointment! We were excited to try out the new Oz Cafe, in its new market location and with new chef, but unfortunately were very disappointed. Food was mediocre at best, with very bland flavours and combinations that did not complement well, nothing like it once was. The service was fair, and lacked attentiveness to detail. We would not recommend, nor would we return.

Oz Kafe is a fantastic restaurant with sublime food, delicious drinks, excellent attentive service with attention to every detail, a very aesthetically pleasing, large, safe, clean and accessible space with a large patio for al fresco dining as well! Bon appetit!

One of our favourite places for an evening out on the Ottawa Market. Great service and excellent food and cocktails

We were able to sit on the patio and enjoy the beautiful courtyard and wonderful weather! Antonio was our server - warm, friendly polite! Food was delicious, and beautifully presented. Our group of six had different dietary requirements- 3 vegetarians, and 1 with allergies- easily accomodated all of us! Appetizers arrived quickly, but mains and dessert were VERY slow arriving, but this was the only negative. Overall a lovely evening!

We were treated well. Limited menu but it was tasty. Good safety practices.

Nice evening- while following Covid protocol. Tough to do - well done!

Delicious food, restaurant is tucked in a hideaway quiet area with cute patio lights and old stone. Service was a bit slow, but the tasty food made up for it!

Excellent mock-tails. The food was fantastic. The service was very attentive. Would definitely recommend but it's not really a secret gem.

A beautiful atmosphere for a casual night out with a good friend. I remember Oz Kafe when it was on Elgin... still the best drinks in town! Went for the trout this time and no regrets. My buddy took the mushroom soup and a large charcuterie board, and they were enough. Not busy Monday night, so we took our time. Lovely chocolate and spiced apple for dessert. Recommend this place if one simply wants to relax and eat good food.

Great food in a fun environment. The cocktails are awesome! Hint - try the rabbit duo if it is available!

Everything was incredible. They did a fantastic job with service and really gave us a special treat that night :) Thanks so much, as always!!! :D

Great menu, great beer, great staff. Awesome experience.

Everything was great expect the walls were oddly bare and the window we were sat beside let in such a draft.

amazing food and cocktails, chaucuterie is half price on sundays and definitely worth trying!

Amazing food!!!

Made a reservation one month before Valentine's weekend. When get to OZ cafe at 6:30PM and the first floor is maybe 70% full. There seems to be a great ambiance with people at tables, the bar, music, etc.

They sit us on the second floor where there is no one but us and some servers talking between them. We ask what is going on and they tell us people will be sitting on second level after 7PM. At this point there is still plenty of room on the ground floor including at the bar. Still can't believe they sat us up there all alone. We grabbed our coats and left. We advised our server and another staff member as to why we were leaving and they just didn't seem to care. Needless to say we won't be back

Fantastic service and great food. The Valentine’s Day menu was adorable and delicious!

The Valentine’s special plate for two was a surprise treat! Superb food, service, and ambience. Would recommend to anyone without hesitation.

We loved the ambiance of the stone walls and candlelight. The service was excellent. Fantastic cocktails! We can't wait to return.

It was a little loud during the peak dinner time. However, it was still possible to carry a conversation and enjoy the atmosphere. Generally acceptable given that we booked our dinner during the peak busy time. That said, The staff and management were wonderful, The food was wonderful, the drinks were wonderful. 5 stars for all the people that make that place run.

We will be going going back for another night out.
