Prohibition House never fails to impress. The menu is varied, the food excellent (the Kale salad is huge and great for sharing as an appetizer) and the service fast and efficient. The main room can get a bit noisy if there are large groups but not more so than in any other place. Remains my favourite restaurant in Ottawa

We had a great time! Our dragon bowls were a great option and easily modified for one to be vegan and highly recommend sauce on the side. Half price bottle of wine was a fabulous deal too! Our server Mimi was excellent - friendly and attentive, especially on such a busy night!

It was exactly what we were hoping for and the food was loved by all. I couldn’t make up my mind and chose the duck. Such a delicious meal with a beautiful presentation. The wine list is small but a nice variety. The staff are so kind and attentive. I would definitely go back.
