Union Local 613 - Ottawa

Over the years, this restaurant has remained high on my list of recommendations when friends and family are looking for good bites, good drinks, and good vibes. Knowing that they treat their staff well and that they support the community is the cherry on top. Make sure to try their wonderful wine selection and their hominy grits! I also think it’s very cool that the street is shut to car traffic on summer weekends so patrons have greater access to this awesome spot.

I love this spot. The vibe, the food, the service, and the owner’s level of social responsibility and community engagement. It’s hard to find a place like this in Ottawa. The cocktails are delicious and expertly made. The food is inventive, fun, and always tasty. Highly recommend.

A restaurants atmosphere is a make it or break it for me. If it’s too uptight, relaxing is impossible. If the staff are miserable I feel guilty for even being there.Not at Union 613 which is ran by community minded owners who stick their necks out for their staff and create a wonderful atmosphere for patrons. Their food is as delicious as it is unique, telling of the diversity of amazing souls who work there.If you’re looking for something cool, visit their speakeasy! A neat little surprise in the restaurants basement The duck hearts are my favourite, but also need to give props to the amazing boiled peanuts. Everything on the menu is fantastic!

We don't eat out often, but if we do, at least 50% of the time it's at Union Local 613. The menu is always interesting with great choices to accommodate our food needs. The food has always been excellent, as has the service. We appreciate the extended patio on a reduced traffic road during the summer!Vegetarian options: The though that goes into the vegetarian options is really appreciated! So much more interesting than the ubiquitous stir-fry in other places.

The food and service was amazing! Definitely a must try. Lucky I came with a group so I got to try almost everything on the menu. My whole group said this was hands down the best meal we had on this trip to Ottawa. Drinks were delicious too ? all 5
