My favorite restaurant of all times. I have been going to the diner for more than 10 years now. The food is great, they must be doing something right as they have the same staff for all these years. #1 for me is the lox club, 2nd choice is the veggie burger. The orange creamsicle shake is to die for! I would love to have the stomach for poutine but that is for the younger crowd who seem to eat it morning and night

This place is one of the best I've been to for Poutine. They have a good selection. I've tried like 3 or 4 of their poutines and each one was great! Top it off with the Dreamsicle milkshake, and you've got dinner! Of course, it's not the healthiest meal, but you don't eat poutine to get ready for swimsuit season, that's for sure! I'd definitely recommend it to anyone!

Poutine is so good, blue plate breakfast is the thing gods give to people who please them. Drinks are expensive, get water.

Great restaurant, we were recommended to eat here by our hotel concierge. The staff were so on top of things, there is no service like this in the US. Montreal smoked meat was great, the soups tasted home made. We splurged and had dessert as well. Everything was 100%. We will certainly be back.

Ottawa poutine places to satisfy big cravings

Ottawa poutine places to satisfy big cravings

As a place to go after a night out carousing on Elgin Street, Elgin Street Diner never closes. I’ve seen poutine consumed there at all hours, including a gruesome pile of fries smothered in the darkest gravy imaginable for breakfast! Very loyal staff and customers make this spot an Ottawa classic.
