The word ‘Miijidaa’ is from the Ojibway language that loosely translates to “let’s eat”. It's a celebration of our roots, foods, wine + brews; a chance to showcase cuisines that influenced our culinary landscape and to show off our northern bounty.

There are many influences in what has come to define "Canadian" cuisine starting with the First Nations, followed by the influences of the French, English, Vikings, Portuguese and more. Our menu is a modern take on our northern gastronomic history with each cuisine and tradition inspiring the tapestry of our culinary landscape that we hope to celebrate on our menu.

    We weren't sure what to expect, but chose this restaurant on the basis of it's menu, which we viewed online. We waited about 5 minutes for our table, but happily spent it at the great bookstore in the building. Our server Liam was courteous, fun and very attentive. The place was quite full so we were glad we had reserved in advance. The vibe was trendy and comfortable, and the food ( trout, beef cheek, pizza, beer salad,peanut butter pie) was 👌👌. We absolutely will come again.

    The atmosphere at Miijdaa is casual and comfortable. All the staff were welcoming and friendly. The fish and chips were excellent. The chicken sandwich and burger special were really good but could have the aioli spread right on the bun as they seemed a bit dry. The French fries are excellent. Had the chocolate torte for dessert - wow, so good.

    Miijidaa is a Guelph gem. The food and the service are always wonderful. My husband, my son and I were there for supper on Saturday night. We each had different dishes and they were all delicious! The restaurant can get busy, so I do recommend reservations.

    My friend and I live at least two hours apart on a good day so we decided to meet halfway at miijidaa in Guelph. I'd been here before and really enjoyed the ambiance. I think it's going to become a regular monthly lunch location for us. The food is very good, the service is excellent and the sticky toffee pudding is the best I've ever eaten.

    The food was amazing! We had a burger, beef cheeks, beet salad and a pizza, and a dessert to share between four and all of the food was delicious. The vibe of the restaurant is great, the staff were very friendly and gave us excellent food descriptions. I would highly recommend eating at Miijidaa, it is our new favourite place in Guelph!! :)
