Reviews for Gray Jay Hospitality in Ottawa, ON
Went for dinner, and had a very good experience. Eclectic local fare, accompanied by mostly imported wine. The sommelier was... very good in describing the flavors to look for as opposed to those silly abstract descriptions that tell you nothing about thetaste. Definitely get the wine pairing if you go.

Excellent VEGAN menu, available by request! My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our meals served with vegan wine (yes, wine can... be non-vegan). Noticeable quality in seasonal ingredients and very well prepared. Highly recommend for special occasions, oranytime! ???????? Read more
What a wonderful dinner we had! Gray Jay is a fine dinning restaurant with casual atmosphere. I enjoyed the refreshing exotic... cocktail and delicious tasting menu. I admired all the details including the bamboo straw, the cut-in-front-of-you herbs in thesauce, the surprise complimentary homemade marshmallow-on-a-stick at the end of the meal, and much more. They also offervegetarian option for the tasting menu. This is an excellent place to hang out with friends and family. I highly recommend it! Read more
Great experience. Pricey, but local, fresh, unique, and cooked/assembled with care. Staff are quick and attentive, while also... detail oriented. Got a little bit of everything, and really enjoyed it. If you enjoy very tasty details and decent portions withinsightful reccomendations, this is a good place. Good spot for a second or third date.

This was my first tasting menu experience and by far some of the best food I’ve had. I did the tasting menu with the wine... pairing and was blown away by the complexity and flavours of each dish with the paired wine. Over the course of 3 hours I wasoverwhelmed with each dish as night went on. The sommelier was very insightful and is a master of her craft. Shout outBrittany! Nat made myself and a friend 2 fantastic cocktails. If you are looking to try fine dining in Ottawa this isdefinitely where I would start. I look forward to coming in the summer season to see what new creations they come up with. Read more
Loved our dinner at Gray Jay Hospitality. Their new location at Pretoria Bridge is amazing and central with a nice view of the... canal. The food and drinks are delicious. They are a farm to table kitchen with all their foods made in house. Service wassolid (it was really busy on Wednesday night), nonetheless, very impressed. Favourite food was the mushroom and cheesecroquette, by far. We did the tasting menu. The price is right for the quality and the amount of food we ate. Loved it. Definitely going back! Read more
We enjoyed our experience at Gray Jay. We ordered the entire menu as we were a group of 5 and wanted to try most of the items.... The crab cakes, scallops and cucumber salad were the best. Why the 4 stars? The lamb, which is $37 was really disappointing. Itwas really chewy and a small portion. We also mentioned it was one of the guests birthday and usually a good restaurant willbring out a little dessert or something from the kitchen but nothing was offered to us. Other than that the service was greatand so were the drinks. Read more
Very enjoyable dinner that consisted of a Chef’s and Wine tasting menu. Dishes were quite inventive and well balanced... flavour-wise. We did note that there were significant differences in what the menu described and what was served. Most of thewine pairings worked very well. Service was excellent although it was a might bit rushed between courses. The PB and J dessertwas excellent. Somewhat pricey. Read more
