My wife, daughter and I had the pleasure of a dinner at La Petite Primerose last week. The food was incredible - very creative offerings and full of flavour. Our daughter is gluten-free and there were plenty of options for her as well. Our compliments to the chefs and the rest of the team for an amazing meal and wonderful service.

Excellent dining experience, top notch food, great service. Couldn’t be better
A wonderful dining experience! Knowledgeable and friendly staff, delicious food and great service!Highly recommend, will return.
We had an exceptional dining experience for six adults. Every dish was fresh, beautifully prepared, and absolutely delicious. The service was outstanding—attentive without being intrusive—and truly elevated the evening. The chef was knowledgeable and passionate, taking the time to explain the menu, while the sommelier provided excellent recommendations that paired perfectly with our meal. A flawless experience from start to finish. Highly recommend! We’ll be back! Thank you so much
Amazing food, a true symphony of flavours. Everything was absolutely delicious, made with local meat and produce. There wasn’t a single dish that stood out above the rest because every plate was equally unique and exceptional.The place was packed, so we sat at the kitchen bar where we could watch the food being prepared and were entertained by Alex and one of the owners. We felt very lucky to have found this place! I’m Highly recommend to anyone who appreciates great food and a wonderful atmosphere and service. Urszula
The TEAM at La Petite Primrose is as remarkable as the food they serve. The dynamic between all the staff is almost as remarkable as the variety of textures and flavors. I am still thinking about which of the ten things we tried was the best. You could taste the time and effort put into coming up with and making each dish. We’re lucky to have these guys around and I hope that every person will have the opportunity to dine here at least once in their life.
What a wonderful hidden gem - service was attentive, super knowledgable and not over bearing. Food was inventive and delicious with so many local ingredients. The dining room was bustling with tables and guests at the bar. Would definitely visit again - soon!
Inventive and delicious menu. Cocktails alcoholic and non were inspired. Yummy wine. Already planning our next visit!
10/10 must visit if visiting Ottawa or Gatinau. Loved all the savoury dishes, especially the scallops and duck breast. We also tried the bread, raddicio with raw tuna, potatoes and black cod. Honestly everything was amazing. We also tried both the apricot and summer berry desserts, which I would skip next time. The star ingredients were overpowered by other elements of the dish. The berries especially could not hold their own to the coffee flavors, while the oat mousse in the apricot dish was overly sweet. That being said, the savory dishes were just elite and I would love to come back.
The best meal I’ve had in my life. Last week I went to Mon Lapin restaurant in Montreal which is considered to be the #2 restaurant in Canada. This was far ahead of that, food was incredible!
cocktails a bit pricey, but excellent overall
Amazing place and excellent food 🥘
Délicieux! We had a lovely quiet cosy evening meal at La Petite Primerose. Attentive and charming service and the most delectable dishes, with our favorites being the beef tartare and the duck (prepped two ways) with carrots... Still thinking about the Yum!
Highly recommend this restaurant for fine dining and sharing of amazing flavours. This is an incredible hidden gem in Ottawa-Gatineau. The dishes here are delicious and the flavors are complex and beautiful. The service is wonderful, my group felt very welcomed and treated with the highest level of care. Great selection of tasty wines. My group tried one of each item on the menu and while we had our favorites, every dish was excellent in its own unique way.
Excellent food, drinks, service, and atmosphere; couldn't recommend more highly
We had a lovely dinner. The ambience was great, the food spectacularly flavorful and it was clear La Petite Primerose has quality on their mind for every aspect of the experience. Highly recommend. My favorite dishes were the Pleurote and the Canard.
Everything was exceptional. All the plates we tried were delicious and creative. Each staff member was attentive to our needs and they went out of their way to make the evening special.
Nice cozy atmosphere. Enjoy the local, fine produces. The food does not give you a sensation of being full. One suggestion though, adding arts on the walls for decoration will be a bonus.
Fantastic service and the food was delicious. The restaurant adds personal touches for special events and is really welcoming
Another amazing dinner at La Petite Primerose - this time with friends, celebrating two birthdays! We felt especially spoiled with customized menus and little treats sprinkled throughout our dinner. Loved the attention from our server, Viviane, and that Tristan took the time to explain what beverages would pair well with our foods and make special cocktails for us. And as usual, the food was spec-tac-u-lar. Lewis is the most talented chef we know, and what that man and his team can do with vegetables (and protein!) is beyond description. This is our favourite restaurant in the Ottawa-Gatineau area. We are so happy to be counted as regulars!!
We had dinner at La Petite Primerose last night and everything was beyond any expectations we had. The food and drinks were absolutely amazing and the atmosphere was laid back and fun. All the little details the crew has put into this restaurant really made the experience special. Highly recommend visiting this fantastic place!
Spectacular farm-to-table menu prepared with care and interest in local ingredients. Excellent service and wine selections as well. Enthusiastically recommend.
We went for a Valentine’s Day set menu and it was absolutely delicious. Every course was better than the last. I can’t wait to come back and taste more dishes.
I wish I had taken photos but I was too busy enjoying my meal. Fresh ingredients, impeccable service, staples we keep coming back for including the tarte au foie gras.
One of the best dining experiences you can have in the greater Ottawa area. The quality of every aspect of this restaurant is at a very high level. Merci Petit Primrose!
