Chesterfield's Gastro Diner

Throughout impressed by the quality of the brunch we ordered. I thought the steak would be dry / flavourless but it was so dang good. And the pancakes are to die for. I would gladly eat here every morning. You can tell that there is genuine care that goes into the food by the quality of Ingredients and even presentation (and I ordered takeout so I never expect things to look that great). Will be returning every weekend :)

This is my favorite brunch spot in Ottawa. I always leave here feeling full. They always give you loads of delicious food for a great price and the staff are always very friendly. One of my favorite dishes is the Jamaican Benny which has poached eggs and jerk chicken on top of delicious cornbread smothered in their jerk hollandaise sauce. Also if you're looking for ideas for a side, the breakfast poutine, chipotle mac and cheese, cheesy potato cake and buffalo cauliflower are all great choices!

I was impressed by the food photos on Instagram. Then we took our first try on February and keep visiting this place on March. Although there’s always need to line up for weekend’s brunch. But worth it for the waiting.People are friendly and helpful when you have questions about the menu. And can provide recommendations if you are on your first time visiting the store.

What an absolute hidden gem! I must have walked by this place a hundred times and never given it a second thought until it got a trusted recommendation. Price for your standard breakfast fare is in line with your typical diner, but the elevated breakfast/brunch fare is really where it's at! Love that you can customize your plate with any two sides!

My Cajun Benny with home fries and Brussel sprouts was absolutely delicious. I'll definitely be making return visits to work through the menu with friends and family!

This is the first time I come to this restaurant and with family, and it was an amazing experience. Not only is the food phenomenal but the service was more than fantastic! We had 5 adults and 6 children under the age of 8, now can you imagine that? We thought it might get really chaotic BUT the service was SO good there was no problems at all! Not only did they attend us right away (had our reservation made but they did amazing with the timing) but they also had sippy cups for our 3 under 3! It's such a simple thing to do at a restaurant but makes a world of a difference for people with young ones.
Now enough about the amazing service, what about the food?!

FOOD WAS AMAZING! the way they presented each plate was outstanding but the aromas were so delicious! Trying each flavour (i stole a bite from almost everyone!) Each dish had its own unique signature flavour! And the presentation of it all was beautiful. My pictures suck but the food looks 1000 times better in front of you!

I'm here visiting family in Ottawa but I will definitely visit family and this restaurant again in the near future!
