Description:
DOWNTOWN. A local institution, Lapointe Fish has been providing Ottawans with fresh seafood since the spring of 1867. Back then, Moise Lapointe's enterprise was little more than a fresh seafood market where, at times, the ice earned more money than the fish. Today, however, the Lapointe Empire has grown to include three popular fish and seafood restaurants. The downtown Ottawa location, open for lunch and dinner daily, offers al fresco dining during the summer months. |

Hy's |
|
(Restaurants - American) |
|
170 Queen St, Ottawa K1P 5E1 613-234-4545
|
|
Distance:
~0.517 km * |
|
|
 |
| |
Description:
Part of a small, historic steakhouse chain, Hy's is something of an institution, and it's a lovely place to enjoy a special night out. Perfectly aged steaks are the draw, with several cuts and preparations available, from an expertly charcoal-broiled NY strip to a more elaborate filet mignon topped with crab and hollandaise. The Cajun spice-rubbed ribeye is a winner, but one of the most popular choices is prime rib served with Yorkshire pudding. Sides include beer battered onion rings, fresh spinach or asparagus, and grilled tomatoes. |

 |

Description:
[Relocating to Preston Street. Should open in new location mid-summer 2008.] Owner Richard Urquhart's upscale bistro has earned accolades – with good reason. A favorite, the restaurant presents modern French/Canadian fare such as duck confit with wild mushroom spätzle, rack of lamb with potato-cheddar hash, and seared scallops with lemon confit and sage sabayon. The décor is modern and minimalist – which makes the artistic plating of each dish even more pleasing. Wines play an important role, and while the list may seem brief it's full of uniformly wonderful choices. |

Description:
With the likes of Eggsuberant and Eggstravaganza gracing the menu at this Centretown restaurant, it doesn't take an "egghead" to know where to head for some "eggcellent" breakfast eats. Indeed, here, eggs are everything, from fabulous breakfasts to lunches to egg-snacks. If you want to go the "safe but tasty" route, try one of their mammoth omelets or an order of poached eggs. The Eggs Benedict is nothing short of divine. |
