Like other restaurants that are the teaching and testing grounds for culinary schools, Signature's attention to detail falters... in the descriptiveness of its menu. A well-crafted description of a dish accomplishes two things: it entices the diner intoselecting the item through a poetic exposition of its ingredients and their preparation , and, it warns the diner of ingredientsand preparation which would contravene their preferences or restrictions. When I attend a lunch with a limited menu, havingrelied on the published menu to determine whether or not I can actually eat the fare on hand, then learn from the chef via theserver that there are unspecified ingredients that prevent me from ordering the dish(es)... I am bound to be disappointed. Thesubstitute vegetarian dish is no substitute for the reason I came to the restaurant that day. A description need not berecipe-level specific, but if there are unspecified ingredients which would concern people with common allergies or religiousrestrictions, please include them. Read more
I've known of this Cordon Blue teaching restaurant for a while and recently tried it for a Mother's day dinner. Highlights; the... Foie Gras was the finest I've even had. The beef tenderloin and deer loin were choice and their Fundy scallops really went wellwith the suggested white wine. I had the 5-course meal (seasonal) which I highly recommend if you'd like to sample their menu.At $95, I considered it a bargain. I also went with the wine sampling they offer with the 'Gastronomique menu'. While the wines(4x 3oz glasses... sparkling wine, Ontario white, Ontario red, Italian red) certainly highlighted the flavours of the platesthey accompanied, at $65 I would have expected some finer European wines. The staff were great and took obvious pride in thefood served. We sat outside and enjoyed a bug-free June evening. Read more
The best place to enjoy every bite of your meal. The scallops are must try and I’m going to tell you why, because those people... know how to cook it to perfection. The Chef was so understanding of our dietary restrictions which led us at the end to enjoyall this masterpieces without any concerns. Thanks a lot to signatures and Le cordon blue you are unbeatable keep it on. Read more
We had visited this restaurant a few years ago but was recently here as part of a special event. Cocktails and canapes in the... bar area to start and then a tour of the facilities, followed by a three course dinner with wine service. Service was good,food was amazing as usual. A little gem, not widely known. One of only 3 restaurants as part of the Cordon Bleu school and theonly one in North America. How fortunate for those who live in Ottawa. Read more
I often come back to this restaurant for their blind tasting menu! The food is always very different and absolutely delicious!... The high quality of products used is definitely noticed, and the service is always great. Can't wait to go back! Read more
