I have been eating regularly at Flippers during the past six years. Although I enjoy the main fish items - various combinations of nicely prepared haddock, salmon and others, I usually choose the smaller plates - tasty spring rolls with shrimp, blue crab cakes, spicy tuna tartare, fresh mussels in a leek sauce, and more. When I'm in need of... more
We have gone to Flippers many times over about 25 years. It is always reliably good..
The last time, I brought a group of 10 friends and every one found something interesting on the menu and enjoyed the selection.
We love seafood and eat it often in restaurants. Flippers chefs can compete with any place in the city for their...

I have eaten at Flippers Restaurant many times over the last fifteen years, almost always at lunch. The menu changes often and the food is consistently good. The service is usually quite good as well; the servers are well informed and prompt, although not always as attentive as one might like. The decor is pleasant and quiet. There is no... more
I have been a customer of Flipper's since the early 80's. I travel extensively for business and pleasure and you will be hardpressed to find better quality seafood at a reasonable price. A favorite dish of mine is the seafood platter. the owner for over 30 years (Karen) is always there to meet and greet you.Excellent service, I highly recommend.... more
I live a few minutes' walk from this lovely little restaurant that we frequent several times per month. Part of the attraction is location but the food never disappoints. Reliable, friendly relaxed service and atmosphere, and very fresh fish. Their seafood spring rolls and pan-seared appetizers are wonderful as is their blackened fish of the day, a regular for us.... more
This is a lovely restaurant in the Glebe. Good atmosphere, fresh food, great taste, reasonably priced, hospitable and professional staff. Highly recommend.
Simply a good place for sea food. Wonderful view of the Glebe, excellent service, and a wine list this is excellent by local standards.
Welcoming feel, relaxed atmosphere, friendly and very professional waiter and I will be be remembering the shellfish linguini ... more
It was tucked away on the second floor, but having seen the banner outside I found it and was pleasantly delighted. The restaurant has a somewhat warn appearance that may be intentional to look like an old seaside beach pub. There were lots of nautical items everywhere. The two main dining areas are separated by a rustic bar with stools... more
I hadn't been to Flippers in a long time, but an out-of-town friend asked if we could go there for lunch when we were in the Glebe today. I'm glad she suggested it. The food was great and the atmosphere pleasant. We both had the seafood chowder which was exquisitely good and delicately-flavoured. We then both had the Caesar salad... more
I have been going to this Restaurant for over 30 years and everyone I bring, they return. The best seafood (and desserts, if you eat them) in Ottawa.
I've been to a few seafood restaurants in town (Pelican's, Big Daddy's, Coasters', Red Lobster...) and THIS is THE seafood restaurant you want to go to if you want good quality food! I promise you won't be disappointed! Take note that it's on the second level of the building.
We were there to celebrate my partner's b'day with a few...

We selected this restaurant on the basis of it's many positive Tripadvisor reviews. We were not disappointed. We were served excellent dinners, one halibut and one barbecued shrimp, in the most interesting surroundings. Looked at from the street, this is not a restaurant that a tourist would select, unless encouraged by positive reviews and/or locals who know Ottawa restaurants. The... more
Have been a very happy customer since the opening of this exceptional restaurant. My wife and I have celebrated many special occasions at this restaurant and have never been disappointed with their consistent great seafood and friendly service. Some of the staff have been there since the opening back in the early 1980s. If you love seafood cooked to perfection... more
We went to Flippers after a long absence, and wondered why we haven't been here more often.
Charming service, warm decor, and consistently excellent food.
You really cannot do better for seafood in Ottawa!
I frequent many restaurants in Ottawa on business and I have never had even a mediocre meal at Flippers.The seafood is always fresh and beautifully presented. The bar is one of the more interesting in Ottawa with copper finish.
The last time there I had the Oysters Kilpatrick and the jumbo broiled shrimp. They were both outstanding. I consider it...

Man was I disappointed... I was expecting at least a dolphin steak or maybe some baby seal soup, but there wasn't a flipper in sight
Excellent food, service and ambiance. Have never had a bad meal here yet. The staff is very efficient and friendly. The menu is not that extensive, but very good.
Flipper's Seafood Restaurant offers these services: restaurant.
As the name suggests, this classy little restaurant above its more casual street-level counterpart, Von's, prides itself on its seafood selection. The menu features jumbo shrimp and the fresh catch of the day, but also offers less aquatic alternatives, including a variety of steak, chicken and pasta dishes. Overlooking the friendly arts district of the Glebe, the restaurant attracts a local... more
