Amazing, interesting food and so many gluten-free options! I have to go back because I wanted to order everything. The gluten-free bread with the wonderful smoked eggplant dip was shockingly good. The cabbage-tofu dish was lovely, as was the brown butter halloumi. I'd suggest sharing the halloumi and pairing it with something lighter, as it is a lot of cheese. The prices were reasonable and the service friendly. And they let you make a reservation for the patio. Ember sets the bar high and then surpasses it. I hope that other restaurants take a page out of their book.

Had a wonderful meal of well prepared interesting dishes. Service was friendly and knowledgeable. I am looking forward to dining there again!

We stumbled into Bar Ocelli on a date night in January—and it instantly became a favourite. Tia welcomed us with the kind of hospitality that makes you feel like you’re a regular, even if it’s your first visit. And then there’s Isaac—the bartender who quickly became our absolute favourite in the city. Watching him craft cocktails is like witnessing poetry in motion. You can feel how much he loves what he does, and that passion shows up in every pour, every garnish, every sip. We went back a couple weeks ago before heading to Ember (also incredible), and again last night with girlfriends, and every single time the moment we walked through the door, Tia and Isaac greeted us like old friends. That feeling? It’s rare—and we love it. Bar Ocelli is a gem in the Byward Market. Cozy, stylish, soulful—and home to two of the best in the business. We’ll be back again and again.

Good food with great entertainment . We listened to Amber Mackereth sing the blues.

I had the moules frites and it was delicious with a generous portion. Ordered the classic espresso martini, as also fantastic! I went during their happy hour 9pm to 11pm, meaning our drinks were 2 for 1. Overall great experience, starting 11pm music starts playing and we can dance.
