BeaverTails Canada
(Restaurants - Canadian)
69 George St, Ottawa  K1N 9H7 • 613-241-1230
Distance: ~308 m *
        Description: There are few pleasures that equal the tasty sweets produced at this Ottawa institution. Indeed, the concession stand-style BeaverTail is a favorite with locals and tourists thanks to its superb – and aptly named! – deep fried pastries, which are smothered with your choice of toppings. Of course, the traditional beaver tails (topped with cinnamon and sugar) still reign supreme.

Hy's
(Restaurants - Canadian)
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.

Beckta Dining & Wine
(Restaurants - Canadian)
226 Nepean, Ottawa  K2P 0B8 • 613-238-7063
Distance: ~0.993 km *
        Description: One of Ottawa's finest restaurants, Beckta takes its inspiration from local ingredients but combines them in unusual ways, making the sum greater than their individual worth. A lobster salad roll is given added depth and zing with lemongrass, fried shallots, daikon, avocado and scallion-caviar aioli; a roasted rabbit roulade is dressed with a zippy Dijon-caper berry sauce. For a true sense of the kitchen's capabilities, opt for the chef's five-course tasting menu, an experience that's sure to impress.
