While the Byward Market and Elgin Street are known food destinations, Rideau St. East of King Edward and Laurier St East are getting trendy eateries which are closer to "home". Our recommendations range from medium priced to reasonable all within a clean and friendly space. We've been late in adding Louis Restaurant on McAuthur that has been there like forever but our guests keep recommending it. How cool is that? So please allow us to share your discoveries with our other guests. Thanks.
Enjoy.
