I was really excited to try Benny’s Bistro since I had heard such good things about the food and service but we were a little disappointed. We got there about 10:20 and were seated a little after 10:30 when they started brunch service and a table became available. The place was actually full when we got there since people arrived early to enjoy a coffee before brunch. One of the waitresses came to bring us water and take our drink order. I ordered a tea and my boyfriend wasn’t sure yet and said he needed a minute. 30 minutes later she came back to take our order and I never got my tea. The table next to us was seated at the same time and they received their food and left before we even got to order. Another table that had been recently seated ordered 10 minutes after us and got their food 5 minutes before. From the time that we got seated to the time our food arrived it was 1.5 hours! Sure it was busy but it was Saturday brunch, they know it’s going to be busy! Over all the food was indeed delicious although my French toast was undercooked in the middle making it soggy. I hope this was just an off day because service was unacceptable. There was no real apology for the wait.

Benny's is my favorite place to eat in Ottawa. The food is consistently great and imaginative. The atmosphere is warm, friendly, and unpretentious. The open-kitchen plan makes it fun to watch as your food is being prepared. Most importantly, you also get to interact with the chef. If you ever get a chance, watch for Benny's special-occasion banquets (the two I was to were St.Valetine's day banquet, and a wedding celebration). These are amazing experiences not to be missed.

Love to go there for brunch. It’s fun walking through the bakery to get to the resto. Had a great tuna dish.

Great place. One of the restaurants featured in Ottawa Eats, by Anne DesBrisay. The frittata is highly recommended, as is the bacon potato bowl.

Definitely worth the wait and the price! A great place if you're in the mood for a fancy weekend brunch.
