My grandson and his wife in Fort MacMurray AB sent me a Swiss Chalet gift card for my 89th birthday. I had a 1/2 rack of ribs with honey garlic sauce which was well done and I thoroughly enjoyed it. My wife had a 1/4 chicken with steamed vegetables. The quality of food and the preparedness was excellent. My wife mentioned the steamed vegetables were done to perfection. In addition our dinner rolls were fresh and warm. The waitress was excellent and took good care of us. My 89th birthday treat at Swiss Chalet Carling Ave. Ottawa couldn't have been better.

Very disappointed to see our old family favourite going downhill… service was much too slow, because the staff they do have is overworked. Otherwise, the food is always great.

Worst service ever! Our server disappeared after we asked for the bill. After waiting for 20 minutes we asked for our server. An angry woman showed up with the debit machine and put it in front of me. I canceled it and asked for the bill first. She rolled her eyes and walked away. 5 minutes later another server showed up with the bill. I won't be back

We went there and we ordered our dinner on a Thursday at 5:20 645. We got our dinner. It was so cold in the restaurant people were putting their coats on. We had to put our coats back on the water to wash your hands in the washroom or ice cold you might as well go outside and stick your hand in the snow. I’ve been trying since Thursday to get a hold of him by phone iPhone 11 times each day today is Tuesday still nobody answers the phone. You would think someone answer the phone The server was very good and pleasant wasn’t her fault that the food was late
