Had the most lovely experience at Prohibition this week!! Our food was absolutely delicious, but more importantly our service was phenomenal! Our server Julia was attentive and knowledgable on the menu. She even went out of her way to arrange a surprise piece of cake delivered to our table for my boyfriends birthday. She was fantastic at her job and truly made our experience memorable! Our cocktails made by the bartender (August?) were also delicious! We will be back and recommending to family and friends!

This was $42. Now... normally for that much Brisket. That would be fine and acceptable but the Brisket was so mediocre and boring. Didn't fall apart, didn't fill my mouth with flavour. I constantly had to tell myself that is was infact brisket. Just felt like I was eating a chunk of meat. Mashed potatoes portion comparative to the meat were made so tiny that some would could call them non existent. Seasonal vegetables were a joke.

We ate outside on the Veranda Thu July 6 - lovely atmosphere and great service. Unfortunately we found the food underwhelming. I suspect the cooking oil needed to be changed - calamari breading quite dark, as was my wife's polenta breading - and the polenta itself was not smooth/creamy - rather dry. We were quite disappointed as were looking forward to dining at Prohibition. Given the price:quality ratio, we'll try somewhere else for our next occasion.

I went here for the first time on New Year’s Eve and had their Table D’Hote menu. I’ve never had anything from their regular menu but I think that I can safely say that their food is phenomenal any time of the year! I had the scallop and pork belly with potato crisp amuse bouche and this was an excellent way to start the meal… and the Prohibition cocktails were an excellent way to start the night! Next was the truffle tortellini starter and it was even better! I still haves dreams about that tortellini… cooked perfectly and absolutely stuffed with truffle. Then the entree arrived and I melted in to my chair. Smoked duck breast with duck croquette! I love duck and this plate made me feel as though I’ve never actually had proper duck before, oh my goodness. As if this all wasn’t enough to handle, the chocolate coffee mousse, almond financier, meringue, sponge toffee crumble and Cointreau dessert rang in the New Year! The service was excellent; the atmosphere, seating and layout of Prohibition is great for a night out, a relaxed afternoon on the weekend, or a couple drinks after work. I will be returning here often because I can’t wait to try more! Note: the photos were taken by my partner because I couldn’t do the food justice, too many delicious cocktails :-)

I planned a dinner for my wife and I here. What a wonderful evening. Great atmosphere, great service (Sam) and the food and drinks fantastic. Couldn't have asked for a better date night

service was on point and our server was so easy going. food tasted really good and left really full. charcuterie board was bigger than i thought (not complaining at all!) considering we only got 5 items on it, they really used all the board space. the elk tartare and deep fried squid (or octopus? i forgot) was also really nicely done. went here for valentine's day with my boyfriend, we were sat in a lowkey area near the bar, but it also looks like a really nice place for bigger groups as well (multiple floors in the restaurant). can't wait for their patios to open again for the summer!!!

Cute and large patio, with covered areas for rain. Service was quick with friendly staff that are easily able to accommodate allergies. Food was a decent portion size and quite rich. Cocktails were fun but also on the pricier side for what you get.

Fantastic experience. Service was impeccable and the food was fresh and tasty. Great selection of craft beers. They have mussels now that you have to try.

The Prohibition Public House has become one of our favorite brunch places in Ottawa. Cozy atmosphere, friendly service and what can we say about the « Brunch-cuterie » board. Love it! Perfect way to sample so many (locally sourced and in-house products) delicious savory and sweet options.•Special thanks to Fred for his impeccable service. Let’s not forget the tasty and beautifully crafted cocktails. Thanks you for another delightful Sunday brunch. Until the next time…
