Reviews for Baldachin Inn

11/14/2024 - Kasi B.
Initially hesitant due to mixed reviews, I revisited Baldachin after many years and was pleasantly surprised by the charming courtyard ambiance and delicious wine and cheese selection. The generous portions, reasonable pricing, and attentive service made for an enjoyable experience, although the decor may not align with traditional fine dining expectations. Overall, it was a satisfying visit and I would consider returning in the future.

After a wonderful day trip to celebrate my wife's birthday, our family decided to take the scenic route home to Ottawa and stop in Merrickville for dinner. This Inn had a sign saying that children's meals were free if you buy an adult entrée. We assumed this meant that a family was welcome here. We were clearly mistaken. We chose to sit in the courtyard where guests are spread out so we wouldn't disturb other tables. The first person we saw greeted us with extremely nasty comments about our children, making us feel very unwelcome. We assumed this was just a rude guest just leaving the restaurant, but when we later went in to inform the staff we were shocked to learn that this was Dave, the owner of the Inn. We were embarrassed, uncomfortable and extremely angry and our experience was completely soured by this interaction. One of the servers, who were excellent, apologised for his behaviour, but the damage was done. I will have a hard time separating this incident from my impressions of an otherwise lovely town. This is not a family friendly restaurant - bring your family somewhere else.
