Please join us for the second instalment of our Wine Dinner Series as we celebrate the incredible bounty of fish and seafood we have from the 46° South Fish Company and The Whalesbone Group. Chef de Cuisine Lukas Zajicek has crafted a special 7-course tasting menu with wine pairings selected by Wine Director Jordan Sabourin. This social wine dinner will be hosted at a communal table, so please expect a lively atmosphere for conversation and connection. Arrival time is 6pm, and the first course will be served at 6:30pm. While we can accept most dietary restrictions for this event with 48 hours notice, we will be unable to accommodate any fish and seafood restrictions due to the theme and nature of ingredients.

Had the 5 course wine pairing menu. As good as similar Paris restaurants I have been, but slightly more expensive. But if you compare to other Montréal restaurants, it’s less expensive, and just as good.

Really nice atmosphere and great service. We did the tasting menu with wine pairings - the wines were fantastic but we were a little underwhelmed with the food especially given the price.

Our valentines dinner was SO fantastic. From walking in the front door to the last staff member we saw on our way out, everything was outstanding. The food was incredible. Wine recommendations were spot on. Every employee was so polite and welcoming. A perfect night out.

Exceptional Dining Experience at Beckta From start to finish, our experience at Beckta was nothing short of amazing. The service was impeccable—though we unfortunately forgot the name of our waitress, she was warm, attentive, and incredibly knowledgeable, making us feel truly welcomed and cared for throughout the evening. We opted for the menu dégustation, and every course was a masterpiece. The flavors were expertly balanced, the ingredients fresh and thoughtfully chosen, and each plate was presented beautifully, showcasing the culinary artistry that makes Beckta stand out. A true highlight of the meal was the blue cheese dessert—an absolute wow factor! It was a bold yet perfectly executed creation by the pastry chef, demonstrating incredible skill and thoughtfulness in its composition. Beyond the food, the ambiance was intimate and inviting, striking the perfect balance between elegance and comfort. It’s clear that Beckta is committed to delivering not just a meal, but a memorable dining experience. If you’re looking for a top-tier restaurant in Ottawa, Beckta is a must-visit. We can’t wait to return!

Our new favorite restaurant in Ottawa! The food was delicious and the staff are top notch. You can tell the Beckta family is committed to providing an exemplary dining experience. Was refreshing to engage with the staff who are joyful to be a part of this restaurant and in return engage diners with professionalism, confidence, and joy. And, it was a gift to dine in a restaurant where it is quiet enough to have a conversation and enjoy our food without the noise of distractions. We loved everything about this restaurant and will be back!
