Review summary

AI-generated from verified diner reviews
JOEY Rideau offers an inviting atmosphere with "delicious food" and "exceptional service." Guests rave about the "outstanding décor" and memorable Mediterranean dishes. While some found the pricing high and music volume loud, many praise the "great ambiance" and "attentive staff." Ideal for lively gatherings, though service consistency could improve.

    We had an okay time at this Joeys location in Ottawa. We had lunch. The reason why I didn’t gave a great experience is because after our okay lunch our server picked up a dirty napkin off the floor and put it on our table with us sitting there. I was so upset that went to washroom to sanitize my phone. I will say that the lettuce wraps are good.

    The waiter was very nice and accommodating as we were late for our reservation due to bad road conditions.

    Always a great place to visit. I always aim for a Kate later after 2pm and get to experience a few great choices from The Happy Hour menu. Worth checking out for food & drinks.
