Gooney’s Sandwich Works offers an outstanding vegetarian sandwich that truly impressed me. Despite the photos looking a bit messy, the taste and quality of the sandwich were excellent. The combination of fresh roasted mushrooms, cheddar cheese, and other wholesome ingredients made it not only delicious but also very healthy. This sandwich stands out as a great option for anyone looking for a nutritious and satisfying meal. The freshness of the ingredients is evident in every bite, and the flavors are well balanced, making it a memorable vegetarian choice. I appreciate that Gooney’s focuses on quality and health, which is reflected in their menu options. The sandwich was filling without feeling heavy, which is perfect for a light yet nourishing lunch. I will definitely be ordering from Gooney’s again because the food quality exceeded my expectations. The friendly service and the variety of options, including vegetarian and gluten-free choices, make it a versatile spot for different dietary needs. I also recommend this place to others who want a tasty, healthy sandwich experience. Overall, Gooney’s Sandwich Works delivers on taste, health, and value. Their vegetarian sandwich is a standout item that I will happily return for and suggest to friends and family. If you’re looking for a fresh, flavorful, and wholesome sandwich, Gooney’s is my top choice in Ottawa. The combination of great ingredients and care in preparation makes it a must-try for anyone who enjoys good food that’s also good for you.

Amazing! I was in town for work and of course being celiac, I need gluten free, and let me tell you there were no shortage of options! I got the Ahi tuna poke bowl and it was so good, I returned the next night for the exact same thing! Awesome & kknowledgeable staff, extremely fresh and delicious food!

Good gluten free tacos. Good allergy protocol knowledge. Seemed a little overwhelmed at half capacity.

The atmosphere here was contemporary chic as well as cozy with the low lighting. The only reason I rated it lower was because the seating was in between the bar and a small hallway, to the front of the restaurant which made our table a high traffic area (it was a Thursday night with reservation) Oysters (5/5): Biggest oysters I’ve seen in Ottawa for $3.50 a piece! Steak Frites (3/5): quite a thick piece of steak that was great overall. I found the knife dull and wish I had more of the Demi glace. White 6 Pizza (4/5): Made gluten free!

It was my anniversary. I emailed several top restaurants in the city. I had 5 criteria. I chose Beckta because of their quick and thorough response to my inquiry/criteria. I was not disappointed in my chose. We had a 5 course blind tasting omnivore menu (excluding dessert, of course) with wine pairing, and all gluten free, as requested. We had tuna, scallops, boar and duck. What a great selection by the Chef. The ambiance was great. Exactly what I was looking for with plush seats (old school). I look forward to returning.
