Bazille – Nordstrom Rideau Centre

Never disappointed when we lunch here. Grest food, service and has maintained reasonable prices.

Excellent chef special salmon pasta. Service pleaaant but somewhat slow. Would go back, great menu.

Wonderful meal, very attentive service. Great ambience. Looking forward to going back.

Really enjoyed the salad that I had with a crisp Sauvignon Blanc. The grab bisque was really tasty! Our server was attentive and everyone that interacted with the table was friendly which is not always the case in Canadian restaurants. Great job!

Merci de demander nos commentaires...

Nous sommes des habitués de Bazille (Ottawa et Boca Raton) . Habituellement c'est bien et le service est bon.
Cette dernière visite nous a désenchantés. Le service n'était pas à la hauteur. Par exemple, nous avons demandé du pain et le serveur nous a répondu que ça viendrait avec la soupe. J'ai mangé la "baby Ceasar" et poulet. Les croutons étaient miniatures et le poulet ne goûtait rien.

Désolée mais cette fois-ci nous a laissés désintéressés.

Consistently good fare and service. A menu with a broad range of choices for any discerning palate. The bartenders know their craft.

Visiting from the west coast. I was here two years ago and had a lovely lunch and wanted to treat my daughters. The food was mediocre on all counts. Very disappointed because it’s great to go for lunch and a little shopping at Nordstrom

Still our favourite place for lunch in Ottawa. Interesting daily specials. Wonderful salads. Great patio.

Food is absolutely divine

Delicious lunch with friends

Great service with a smile.
Brought a client and we were pleased l’y surprised with the food selections. Thanks Colin!

My friends loved the experience. It was the first time they had been there and they thoroughly enjoyed the menu choices, the food and the atmosphere. It's a perfect choice for lunch with a group of people.

Never disappointed when I eat at Bazille, the food is excellent and the service is always good.
The cilantro and lime shrimps salad is my favorite .
My only criticism would be the price of glass of wine or beer is a bit expensive but probably as expected for a downtown restaurant

Great restaurant overall.
My only issue was that the server who took our order, served the food, and checked if everything was ok, didn’t come to when we paid, but someone else did. To me this is bad service, and I left a lower tip then I otherwise would have.
I’m not a fan of factory style service.

Always a pleasure to dine at Bazille, Nordstrom, Ottawa!! Thank you

Salad has been reduced. No greens were included. Only the chicken with the some crunchy Asian noodles. The chocolate cake was to die. Server was good however came over many times. She forgot my hot water and lemon after dinner. Brought bill without asking.

Excellent food and great patio. Hidden gem for dining at the Rideau Centre. Will recommend for high quality food at a modest price.

Food is usually very good here. On this occasion my French dip beef sandwich was composed of dried, fatty tough roast beef. Very disappointing; I won't be heading back again in a hurry.

My favourite place!!!! Amazing food. Excellent service. Comfortable and cozy.

really great customer service from our server. One of the girls was vegan and the chef had no issues making her a special dish. Only complaint is the bartender took awhile to make drinks and made it very obvious he didn’t want to be there

The food is fabulous. So is the ambience and the service. My only complaint is that the servings are too small. Not wanting a calorie-laden dessert, I often leave still hungry.

food was good, but noisy, no spoon for the coffee

Always great service and great food. Homemade lemonades are a must try.

Great burgers, tacos and chocolate cake!! Our server (and her trainee!) were great and we weren't rushed at all. Excellent experience; thank you!

La terrasse extérieure manque un peu d’attrait (qualité des tables et confortabilité) vs la salle à dîner intérieure. Autrement excellent menu. Ça vaut le détour.

Bazille's has been one of my favourite restaurants for lunch since it opened and remains a very pleasant place to dine, but I have noticed a slight decline in quality and service. For example, they used to be happy to provide half salad/half fries with the Bistro Club but they no longer do so. On a recent visit I waited a long time for a server to come to the table to make initial contact and take a drink order.
An annoying thing on my most recent visit was the waiter addressing me and my friend as "Senora" and saying "Bella" or Grazie Senora" everytime he came to the table (which was frequently). I know he meant well but it was irritating. He didn't speak with an Italian accent so it really seemed like an affectation.

I was disappointed in the menue. I found the offerings uninspiring. The menue is quite plain. I was expecting something along the lines of your previous menue. I will no longer recommend as a wow place for food. It used to be my favourite place to recommend. Too bad

Even though I pre booked almost 2 weeks in advance and wanted a patio seat....I didn’t get one....and we were squeezed between two other groups when there were many other areas of the restaurant inside that seemed empty

The food at Bazille is very good. Always cooked perfectly and the menu has lots to choose from. There is something for everyone. Atmosphere is nice, for such an open restaurant it feels very cozy. Staff are always friendly and accommodating. I love eating here when I'm in the mall. So much nicer to come up to Bazille for a quick bite than having to sit in the overcrowded food court. Will keep coming back.

Great lunch, reasonable price and good ambiance. Had lunch on a trip to Ottawa. Great experience, relaxing atmosphere good service

Loved Bazille...service is impeccable, food is well thought out and creative; somewhat unexpected, which is always a treat. We'll be back.

Good, friendly service.
Very accommodating.
Enjoyed our meals

Great service- food was also enjoyed by everyone.

Had a great time, lunch menu was great. Happy to have the patio seating on such a lovely summer day. Nice to have one restaurant in the market that doesn't feel crowded!

Best choice for a lunch while shopping downtown.

Very tasty and fresh ingredients, restaurant was very clean and welcoming, spacious patio. Menu could use more vegan and gluten free options.

I requested a side table and arrived earlier than my reservation but none were available,not good

Consistently great food and service. The outdoor patio is wonderful on a nice day.

The food is excellent. The tables are too close for you to have any kind of private conversation.

Very good service and ambiance. More hot vegetarian options please.
