Great menu specials, super attentive server, and a window seat! I had walnut crusted salmon which was moist and flavourful. But the sweet potato fries were the very best I have ever had, crisp not mushy and hot, not greasy. A respectable wine list, and a nice tart with pecans and chocolate for dessert. Go here, you will not be disappointed.
Amazing food!! Donna and Brian are top notch servers!!! I would totally recommend this hidden gem to anyone!
Rock solid experience. We ended up here because I really wanted seafood and we needed a reservation for Pelican. The clam chowder and shrimp wonton soup were excellent. Almond salmon excellent. Seafood platter the oysters were a bit too warm and the lobster just slightly overdone. In theory because of those tidbits I would give this place 4.8 stars but everything was so good, the service was excellent even when we showed up with a baby. They saw we were looking outside how to get up the stairs and someone came out to tell us there was an elevator around the other side. On a sunday evening we were dining in a mostly empty space with what looks like a bunch of regulars hanging out and eating at the bar. This was a beautiful experience with my wife and baby and I would consider coming back to this place as many times as I'm in Ottawa.
My family brought me here for my birthdayany moons ago. This is how Flipper's became a well-kept secret. It looks like a mermaid's cave. Also they serve these giant shrimp. Great crab cakes . Last time we had seafood rolls. 🤗🤗🤗so much fish.
My wife and I went to Flippers for the first time the other evening. It was our 54th wedding anniversary and we had a SPLENDID time! The seafood platter was excellent (for a Maritimer it's important!), the service was friendly and efficient and ambiance intimate. We have already recommended friends to go. (I didn't wear a mask either, lol) Kudos!
I travel out of my neighbourhood to go to Flippers. Located upstairs from Vons at Fourth and Bank this restaurant is a gem. We go there for a quiet friendly restaurant experience. Not too small not big at all. The food is great. I personally go for the Seafood Escabeche which is scallops, prawns, mussels, and linguine in a creamy garlic sauce. Every time I go there iI am hoping that it is still on their menu. Never been disappointe!
Excellent food and service. We had Icelandic cod, cooked perfectly. Lovely humorous exchange with our hostess/server, fun dinner.
