Reviews for Wilfrid's in Ottawa, ON
Ellen’s simply WONDERFUL!!! She graciously helped me and my daughter to pour bowls of scrumptious potato leek soup. Although... the place was a bit crowded for Thanksgiving buffet brunch, it’s definitely worth it. Another server named Frederic wasfabulous as well! In general, the food and staff here are one of the best in town. We will be back with no doubts! Read more
Amazing experience! In a historical hotel enjoy a brunch on weekend . Quite place and professional service . Unbeatable food... quality. It don’t have a lot of choices but it good cooking and different option. Seafood platter is amazing but I don’tunderstand they are not refill it after all the scallops gone. Good views in terraces, Staffs are polite and smile on face. 50$each person Wine are not expensive but not many choices . Read more
No juice, the cheapest fruit available, tepid coffee, crepes that are barely cooked. And this at 9 AM. What's happened to this... place? Read more
The 5 women in our family came to the Chateau Laurier to celebrate our matriarchs 90th birthday. Sadly, both breakfast... experiences at Wilfrid’s we abysmal. The first morning there was a mistake in each of our dishes, the plates all arrivedtwenty minutes between the first and the last, we had to ask for pepper, butter, ketchup - none of it was on the table. We alsohad to specially request a beverage, which were included in each of our dishes, but never offered. We assumed this was aonce-off, but then returned the next morning to an identical experience. Our matriarch waited 18 minutes after everyone elsereceived their food before she received hers, with barely an apology. Entirely disrespectful for a woman who just turned 90,enjoying breakfast with her two daughters and two granddaughters. Although our server did seem embarrassed in a way that showedthis was a regular occurrence. At $40/plate, this wasn’t worth half that as the food wasn’t exactly impressive. The onlypositive experience is the pleasant attitude of the staff - everything else is broken and frustrating. When you enjoy a weekendat a luxury hotel, you expect luxury experiences in the restaurant. This service was less organized than your local greasyspoon. Read more
I’ve been at this place for Brunch and it has been amazing , (before covid) and food was amazing , so many varieties… I went... today and the buffet looks so sad , not too many items like before , presentation was awful. It was just a SAD buffet. And thenthe bill $88 for 2 … I won’t come back , I can have better food at Cora. So sorry guys very disappointed. Read more
Came here for a brunch on a Sunday, and the experience and food was amazing! A friend had mentioned that they used to do an all... you can eat brunch, which would’ve been amazing to try, however this was just as good! We were seated quickly (with areservation) and was explained how the menu worked. We got everything on the menu, and they brought it out course by course.Something to note, you are offered one drink per person however if you want a different drink after (like coffee or tea)you’re charged extra and we weren’t told about this beforehand. It was a very unique experience and I would do it again fora special occasion! Highly recommend coming on an empty stomach to make the most of the food! Read more
We had a small gathering on Boxing Day. The 10 of us were split into two tables of 4 and 6 side by side. Very comfortable and... roomy. Our tables were on the upper level and far away from other tables. We were all having the Discovery Menu. The parentshad wine pairing, and the grownup children ordered cocktails. Every course was excellent. We were very impressed with theTurkey! It was the best Turkey I have ever had! Very very tender and flavourful. The wine pairing was excellent too. Theservice was impeccable. They didn’t have the buffet because of the pandemic. However this Set Menu was perfect forgathering. I highly recommend it! Read more
