9. Court Street Pub
Reviewed By CRMyers
This cute pub is located directly across from the historical Ottawa courthouse. You can enter off Court St. or Columbus. Parking is easier as there is a lot off Columbus st. Reasonable prices, family friendly, handicapped accessible, and bands throughout the week.

Not that great of food. Nothing exciting on the menu. We were told to go here for lunch. I wish we would have tried a different place. Staff was somewhat friendly but slow. I ordered a cup of soup and pretty sure that is what I got but was charged for a bowl of soup. They do not like you sharing meals because they will charge you $2.99 if you share. I hate that when restaurants do this. I think it is a big rip off. We will not recommend nor when we return to the area we will not return here.

Friendly staff, great food, reasonable prices!! Best known for the "Berta Burger"! Awesome outdoor patio area. Great place to hang out on a Sunday afternoon! Even though it's a neighborhood bar, children are always welcome!

Upon entering I had to take a look at the aquarium bar which is such a unique feature. The decor is very appropriate and inviting! The service and food were fantastic! I love corn nuggets and tend to have a hard time finding those on most menus. My lemon drop drink was delicious! I cannot wait when the weather is warmer, to enjoy the patio out back! We will be back! I hope others will support this nice establishment!

Stopped in to try Radium City Brewing local beer and ended up spending a couple ours visiting with the patrons and staff member. Nice beer option when passing through town. Shared a pizza with the couple sitting by me and it was very good. Nice and thin and crisp.

The new management duo has done much with this venue. Featuring fresh seafood throughout the new menu with a slight Mexican twist, this results in a unique dining experience. The shrimp and guacamole tortillas appetizer shines. White fish over spinach with lemon sauce stands out. Get there early in the summer to catch an outdoor table next to the marina. Wonderful sunsets. Bring your sunglasses for those 15 minutes when itâs a little blinding.

I was here on a business trip did some pretty good research on TripAdvisor and decided upon this place based on reviews and their menu. I sat in the bar area which had multiple televisions with sporting events a good selection of beer wine and beverages and the service was fast and friendly. I had the pizza special with sausage and pepperoni which was really good with a lot of cheese and tasty meat and would definitely do again, I ordered the hot wings but you're also really good both on size and taste the sauce was good tasted homemade only downfall was it didn't stick to the wing very well. I will definitely be going back to this place when in Ottawa on business

They don't seem to have a website when I tried "googling" them. Our waitress said that they've been there for 2-1/2 years, though.

Excellent meal, great service for a reasonable price. The seafood pasta was loaded with seafood in a tasty sauce. The tuna salad was cooked perfectly and delicious. The restaurant section was quiet and comfortable. Will definitely return the next time we're in the area.

We stopped in here for a late lunch after hiking at Starved Rock State Park which is about 15 minutes from Ottawa.It was busy, but we were seated right away. The hostess who seated us seemed tired and not very friendly. She seated us at a low table near the tasting room when there were several open comfortable high top tables. We asked to move to another table before we sat down and this seemed to make her more tired. She sat us at a two person high top table with comfortable chairs by the bar which was great.The server was very friendly and helpful and told us about the beer we were thinking about trying. It was the vermillion River $5 for 16 oz and very good.We ordered the three little pigs- bbq pork sliders which were so good and the sausage and bacon flatbread which was also very good. Iâm sure they get quality meat from a meat market because the sausage and bacon were delicious.I still gave this five stars even though the hostess greeting was lacking in the â friendly glad you came to our restaurant ââ-hopefully, she was just having an off day.
