My first time at Al's and definitely won't be my last! Tina my server was wonderful. The steak and frites were delicious. The portion size was perfect for me. Finished the meal with a large slice of Coconut Cream pie, which is a must have. I will be back next time I am in Ottawa!

Excellent meal as always. The food is delicious. We ordered pita with whipped feta, shrimp, half haloumi salad, half chicken and EVOO fries. Absolute perfection! We brought home some and the smell of it being re-heated immediately took me back to our delicious meal. Highly recommend EVOO.
