I enjoyed two delicious meals in pure kitchen at a recent visit to ottawa. the staff was very friendly and the atmosphere was beautiful.

I was pleasantly surprised by my first visit to Pure Kitchen restaurant in Kanata. Upon walking in, we were greeted by the friendly staff and felt instantly uplifted by the bright and airy atmosphere that includes eclectic design details in a clean and open setting. Since we walked in without a reservation we did have to wait for about 10 minutes, which was surprising since we went on a Monday afternoon and didn’t expect it to be so busy! But I suppose that is a good sign that the place is popular and bustling even on a Monday afternoon! The menu is fairly expansive and is broken out with one side for drinks and smoothies/juices and the other side for food. Overall I was very impressed by the large selection of food and drink items, although I will say all of the menu items are geared more towards lunchtime than dinner (even though the restaurant is open until 9PM). I will also say I was surprised to learn that all of the main food dishes on the menu are vegan (although this fact is not advertised and I had to ask the waitress to make sure), and only the add-ons are vegetarian (i.e. goat/cheddar cheese). For food we ordered the Radical Cauliflower Wings to start, and chose the half and half option. These were incredible and highly recommended! The portion size was very generous and the flavor was spot on. We also ordered the Warrior Bowl to share and although the ingredients were perfect, we felt that overall it could have been more flavorful perhaps by adding more of the dressing over the vegetables. For drinks we ordered the Pumped Up and Green Yogi smoothies. The taste of the Pumped Up smoothie was delightful, as was the vibrant pinkish red hue! I would highly recommend this smoothie. Sadly I can’t say the same about the Green Yogi smoothie, as it was very bland and lacked quite a bit of sweetness. Perhaps if they had added more mango or pineapple it would have been perfect. All in all, Pure Kitchen is a great restaurant with a vast assortment of vegan dishes that are satisfying and family-friendly. Although some of the menu items we ordered were a bit lacking in flavor, I would still recommend this restaurant as a great option for delicious vegan and vegetarian food in the Ottawa area!

I'm thrilled that they have opened a new location in the west end area. It's convenient for those who work in the March Road tech hub.
