Disappointed....

Went to Empire Grill with my Girlfriend for our one year anniversary. Our Server was pleasant and very kind. I was amazed at the noise level in this restaurant, it felt as if we were eating dinner with 450 people in a 1000 sq dining room with amplified acoustics. We ordered a Grilled bread app with an assortment of delicious dips (tzatziki, truffle white bean, herbed chevre ,curried lentil, red pepper salsa) which came with hot grilled flatbreads and an assortment of of olives and peppers. This app was delicious! The Crabcake had an off taste, similar to pollock. We both ordered the filet mignon and shared 3-4 sides ( roasted fingerling potatoes , green beans sauteed in sesame oil w/ shaved almonds, creamed spinach, roasted tomatoes w/ aged balsamic). Our steaks arrived cold, i sent mine back seeing as it was "blue" when i had ordered med-rare. our sides were basic cooking school 101. So all in all besides the grillbread app the meal was a letdown. We will not be returning to this restaurant any time soon. Just very disappointing when you pay 175$ without drinks for two, for that ammount I expect near perfection.

This is a mediocre restaurant on a good day. They offer nothing unique or special. It doesn't feel like a "grill" at all and the decor is suited for ladies. Prices are way above reasonable and you feel a little ripped off at the end of the night. Server was excellent but terribly overworked for a high calibre restaurant. This place will always be busy because of its location but I doubt they get alot of repeat customers.

Food was delicious, wine selection was fabulous. The server was attentive without being intrusive. Water glasses filled often, bread in abundance. Everything was cooked as ordered and hot on arrival. Overall, a great evening out with friends was made better by the Empire Grill.

Business lunch destinations abound in the ByWard Market

Business lunch destinations abound in the ByWard Market

The reputation of being casual, cool and comfortable is well-earned here – unless you choose a shaded patio table on the street in the height of one of Ottawa’s humid summers, that is. If you want a tender Canadian-grown Angus beef steak, a charcuterie or cheese sharing board – where you can observe how your colleague copes with sharing – this is the place for you. Summer’s humidity and heat may dictate a salad, so here’s where lime coconut chicken works impeccably with romaine.

Weekends are for brunching in Ottawa’s ByWard Market

Weekends are for brunching in Ottawa’s ByWard Market

Empire Grill is an urban eatery that serves brunch from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Start small with their Ottawa valley gazpacho (a lemon basil crème fraîche) before tackling their brunch board for two. It consists of a croissant cheese melt with scrambled eggs, French toast, bacon, sausage and mushroom on toast, crispy beef nibs and a fruit cup.
