Cyranos Restaurant

39 Robertson Road

Ottawa, Ontario

If in Ottawa, I highly recommend trying out Cyranos restaurant. Don't allow yourself to judge this quaint mediterranean-Canadian restaurant by its stip mall location as you'll be pleasantly suprised upon walking in the door.

The ambiance is comfortable and clean whether you're looking to get out of the summer heat or cozy up on a cold day. The staff are courteous, effificent and have excellent knowledge of the menu. The restaurant also boasts a nice selection of wines which perfectly compliment the menu.

The food is incredible, always made with the freshest ingredients and always consisently above par. Starters consist of calamari dishes, gilled eggplant, the best caesar salad you've ever tried (made with a homemade light, lemony and garlicy dressing) along with other mediterranean favourites. Furthering your delicious starter, enjoy a fresh, hand made, meditteranean style pizza, or to-die-for pastas. Just a note about Cyranos pastas...the pasta is actually fresh. You know how most places say they have fresh pasta and, well, they don't? Cyranos actually does, made fresh, daily, in-house. If you're not in the mood for pizza or pasta, enjoy their fish of the day, goat's cheese stuffed chicken, veal marsala, chicken parmesan or steak cooked to perfection.

Don't stop there, their baklava is the best in town and if they have their cheesecake special for dessert, don't think twice about ordering it.

Now that I've gone through everything on the menu, you're sure to be stuffed!
