I'd give a couple of extra stars if I could! So, we traveled to Ottawa on Thursday to celebrate my sister's birthday. Walking around downtown looking for a place for dinner, we happened to pop in to the Backdrop. They were busy but had room for us on the patio outside. Our meals were amazing! Fast forward to Friday evening ... we're ba-aaaack! Stellar performance two evenings in a row. Kent ... you're something else. Server extra-ordinaire! We'll definitely be back some day, and I'm betting you'll still remember us, and probably what we ordered. See you on our next trip up!
Backdrop is amazing! The atmosphere is great and the food was delicious! Thank you to Cory, our waiter for his excellent service and the awesome band. I will be going back! Can't wait until the patio opens.
This downtown off the main track restaurant is an absolute gem in this city!!! From the ecclectic industrial decor with a large splash of colour and art the adventure is just getting started. From the first step inside the vibe is inviting and the staff is welcoming and attentive. The signature drinks are creative without being pretentious and are delicious. There were 4 of us, we ordered the charcuterie to start, so beautifully presented and tasted even better!!! Our mains were ordered and presented with such culinary artistry. Absolute perfection to the palate.
In this city we are so used to being overcharged for mediocre fare, Backdrop offers "high end" dining without the "slap- in- the-face" prices.
Put this place on your radar!
