What Lloyddeborah doesn't like about Flipper's Seafood Restaurant:

Very warm and inviting atmosphere. The owner is on premise everyday to welcome you as a new or the overwhelming number of repeat customers.

read moreA recent restaurant review roundup highlights some mixed experiences at a seafood hotspot in Ottawa. Despite receiving rave reviews for its incredible meals, including standout dishes like escargots, pan-fried pickerel, and Oysters Kilpatrick (a special request item), the restaurant's ambiance and service have left some customers disappointed. While one diner praised the wonderful atmosphere, excellent service, and delicious food, others expressed concerns about being violently ill after their visit, encountering unfriendly staff, or even facing inappropriate behavior from the owner. Despite the restaurant's gastronomic letdowns, many loyal patrons continue to praise the establishment for its relaxing atmosphere, great servers, and superb seafood offerings, making it a cornerstone of Ottawa's culinary scene. Ultimately, while some visitors have had less than stellar experiences, others have found Flipper's to be a hidden gem worth revisiting for its delicious seafood offerings and unique ambiance.
