music, yes, scenery, yes, food....no way
June 29, 2014

I've enjoyed the food here in the past, but something has gone terribly wrong. I have "dined" at the restaurant 3 times this summer, and plan on bringing a picnic from home next time. The service is friendly, and the food.............they should be embarrased serving it. That's probably why you usually have to pick it up your self from the... more

The New "Old" Newport
June 22, 2014

I love this place, nothing has changed except for the location and that is exactly how I want it. This is my defacto breakfast restaurant and has been for years.

Saturday night reggae music. That was a great evening. Thank you for booking Ras Ly and friends. It was wonderful to dance to reggae music outside on the patio. This is a hidden gem in Ottawa, Ont. Best to call for directions cause the internet site for 'westborobeach cafe' says 745 Sir John Macdonald Parkwy, but there may be better... more

Great pizza
August 02, 2013

We took our son for dinner - we ordered a large pizza which was plenty and an appetizer of zucchini stick. The zucchini was piping hot and the pizza was great - I normally order vegetarian but with my husband and son we ordered meat lovers - I still really enjoyed it. Plenty of cheese - good service, lots of... more

An New Institution
April 10, 2013

Everyone in Ottawa has eaten at the Newport at least once in their lifetime. Now that the old location has closed, the former Donna's Express is now the "New Newport", a smaller version of it's former self but still chock full of Elvis memorabilia. I had just a plain old club for lunch. While it's hard to screw up a... more

Well actually, more like Elvis`kitchen. But none the less, it`s simple comfort food. Price is great and the neighbourhood never disappoints. So I do suggest it, but watch out for the pie...just try to say no.

My family has been dining at Newports Restaurant for years and we are always satisfied. The pizza is always amazing.

An Ottawa institution no doubt. But it is not a nice environment and the food is pretty average.

Good Breakfast
September 18, 2012

We have breakfast at the Newport every month with a group from the office., This month two people ordered eggs benedict and were pleasantly surprised. The fresh fruit salad is pretty good and the coffee is acceptable and constantly refilled. Service is pretty good.

I know there are hundreds of die hard pizza fans from New York and Chicago who think their pizza is the best on the planet and many of you have your very own local favorites in the pizza department, but Moe's Newport Restaurant in Ottawa, Ontario, of all places, has the best pizza in the world.

Unlimited appeal to the Elvis Crowd, why say more? Oh and they have an excellent breakfast if you are looking for something home cooked and they serve a great pizza. One of the few original Westboro restaurants to survive the arrival of the chik crowd.

This restaurant is super tacky or super retro depending on how you want to look at it. It's filled with EVERYTHING Elvis, I mean EVERYTHING!!! Some people love it and others hate it. I'm not going to lie, it definitely makes me smile when I walk in here.

SOOO, It's a gorgeous Friday evening, so I thought I would celebrate by picking up a combination pizza from Newport. I have always enjoyed their pizza's. The crust is thick, and has a nice crunch, and the toppings are generous, especially the cheese. Unfortunately, the cook added a little something extra on my combination pizza tonight, green peppers, mushrooms, pepperoni and a long curly hair... more

December 21, 2011

Service is a tricky thing and evaluating it is subjective. Some people like the Newport because of the folksy attitude of the waitresses and the simple food. To my mind, the waitresses act like they're always in a rush and they border on rude. Customers should be made to feel valued and I don't get that at the Newport. If... more

Today I went for brunch at an overpriced place in the Glebe where they served a mediocre omelette that might have verged on enjoyable if it was not cold. However, the server was young, sweet and earnest and it was a busy morning so --- being Canadian --- I did not complain. However, after a few bites of chilly omelette, I realized that I would much rather be having breakfast at the Newport.
