El Camino
380 Elgin StTACOS!!!!! The best in Ottawa!
Peak dinner experience in my opinion. Set in an old bank, Riviera has the longest bar in Ottawa with the old teller lights along the way. Incredible menu, incredible cocktails, the best date night in Ottawa.

Sightseeing
The centrepiece of Ottawa’s downtown landscape, Parliament Hill is the political and cultural heart of the city. The Parliament Buildings sit atop the Hill, the gorgeous Gothic-style structures overlooking the Ottawa River, as the politicians within debate the present and future issues of the country. Free guided tours are available daily, including a chance to head up to the Peace Tower for an incredible view of the city. During the year, the Hill is the focal point for a number of the biggest celebrations in the country: Canada Day (July 1) sees about a hundred thousand people descend upon the landmark.
