Anne's Hideaway - Ottawa

This out of the way little place in Naplate is... interesting. When I asked for a wine list, the response was ' we have red and white '. The IPA list was LaGuintas. Not an auspicious start. The dining room was a bit loud and not elegant. Then things got yummy. The warm bread loaf was soft with a crisp crust delicious. The included salad was simple head lettuce but the house made creamy cucumber dressing starred! We ordered family style chicken one dark, one light.

A small, dark restaurant (hence the name Hideaway for a cozy dinner. Dined here with my uncle and auntie, and had a very nice meal. We started off with sharing the cheese squares which were by far my favorite. Lightly fried, not too greasy, melty and gooey. I had a crispy side salad brought to me first as part of my meal. The blue cheese dressing tastes homemade and was very good. The salad is just a small plate of ice berg lettuce cut into pieces, nothing to write home about. The fried pickles appetizer was just meh, not sure if it was the breading that was underwhelming or that they were too salty. Not crispy enough. My main meal was Shrimp (grilled and hash browns ! on the side. Hash browns as a dinner side dish?? YES please. I inhaled it. The shrimp was served on a skewer and were enormous pieces, perfectly grilled. It is a menu catering to the carnivores mostly, lots of steak and pork. If I didn 't eat fish or seafood I would have been in bad shape as I don 't think there was a vegetarian item on the menu (besides salad . Very limited if you don 't eat any of the above. They also have chicken. It is a popular local place, and my parents used to frequent here back in the 70s and 80s. It is not my favorite place in the area due to the limited pescatarian/vegetarian items on the menu, but it is good food and service overall.

Adore this place ! Supper club feel amazing service and atmosphere start with homemade mushrooms wonderful iceberg salad with homemade dressings our favorite is the cucumber ranch dressing !! The prime rib or any steak or fish is perfection!

Absolutely love this place The staff are all amazing and we had the prime rib which was awesome and also the fried chicken which was very good, definitely recommend

My wife and I truly love this place. The staff are always so friendly and go out of their way to ensure we always leave happy. Great local place for breakfast.
