Really enjoyed our evening out and will be more than happy to return again in the near future. Really appreciated the free parking, a rarity in downtown Ottawa! And my wife and I both appreciated the complimentary glasses of tokaj for her birthday!

From start to finish, the experience was extraordinary. The food, the service, the atmosphere. If you’ve never been to Beckta (it was my first time), I highly recommend you put it on your list. Thank you for the hospitality!

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.
