    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!

    The meal was very enjoyable and had lots of unique dishes coupled with very amazing techniques. I was a very big fan of the trout ravioli which was so unique and amazing. My only suggestion is not double desert but one more creative entree. Staff was friendly and knowledgeable, ambiance was great and it was definitely overall a great experience. Oh the tip is included in the bill which was also kinda cool.

    The restaurant was virtually empty on a Thursday evening. I had the sirloin steak and it was probably the best steak I've ever had. The staff were equally amazing. I highly recommend.
