The addition of Katha to the Ottawa culinary scene is a unique & very welcome one. A highly refined, flavourful, well-executed series of 8 courses - all very different but complementary. Unlike any other Indian restaurant in the region, so in its own unique league. Cost per head quite reasonable, for what one gets. If you enjoy any form of Indian cuisine--North, South, Central--go there & try it. Soon.View more
This was an outstanding experience. Service was excellent & the chefs told an interesting story behind every dish. Overall the food was terrific - just the right amount. We felt that we learned something interesting that we would consider for our own cooking with most dishes. The menu is changing for the start of 2024 - we will definitely be back.View more
Visited this place last night & was blown away by the experience. Big, bold flavours in each of the dishes, surpassed only by the creativity displayed by the chefs. Highly recommend getting the wine pairing as well. What made this so unique was the story that each chef told with the dishes - adding a personal element really helped the dishes shine.View more

Amazing 8 course tasting menu. Every dish was different & had a different flavour profile! The mushroom broth/consommé in the dumpling dish was a highlight! I almost wanted to lick each plate clean! Will definitely be coming back!View more
Everything's incredible here! Service... friendly upscale atmosphere... creativity, execution, & deliciousness of the dishes. Brunch & tasting menu dinner were both flawless approachable fine dining. Indian congee, jaggery sesame "pop tarts", yumm thank you!!View more
Impeccable service, not to be overshadowed by the amazing food. The name really represents how you dine, they tell you a story along the way. What an incredible evening.View more
Amazing food & top tier service! Loved the story telling aspect of the tasting menu! Highly recommend!View more
The 8-course dinner was a delightful culinary adventure, presenting creative flavors & dishes to discover with each new plate. I thoroughly enjoyed experiencing the chef's innovative creations. While the meal does come with a steep $100+ per person price tag, foodies seeking a unique fine dining experience will find it well worth the splurge. The intricate preparations & attentive service combine with the surprising tastes to create a fully immersive gourmet event that introduces you to cuisine you won't find elsewhere. If you're looking to treat your palate to something extraordinary & expand your epicurean horizons, this is a special meal to savor.View more
Excellent food & excellent wine pairings. Brought back memories of India. What an experience! I couldn't have asked for anything better.View more
A great experience at Katha! The tasting had more than eight beautiful plates with well balanced spices & heat. Some plates reminded me of other Indian food I've had, others were completely new to me & fun to try. It was special hearing the chefs personal stories that influenced each plate when they presented it to us. We did the wine pairing as well & quite enjoyed the high quality mix of reds & whites that were paired with the food.View more
Deliciously spicy beet tartare, amazing soup with daikon dumplings, a mind-blowing lionsmane mushroom steak & more. This was a vegetarian meal to remember. Definitely going back.View more
Excellent experience & well worth the visit- really creative tasting menu, highlights included the rose dessert & the mushroom broth with daikon dumplings- we were a group of 8 with a couple of dietary restrictions & all were accommodated with ease- great service from Owen, & kitchen staff presented every dish as it was served- we were placed in the back room due to a booking mixup which was appreciated, we put on some music on our phones just to have a bit of charm- one small advice is to skip the non alcoholic cocktails- they were pretty pricey & not very flavourful, just sweet- but everything else was amazing- I didn't get it, but folks at the table raved about the wine pairing as wellView more
Absolutely wonderful! Eight courses & the stories accompanying each were a nice touch - just enough to give you an appreciation for the dish & its background. Highly recommended!View more
This was one of the best dining experiences I have had in the city. The wine pairing was excellent & the food was amazing. The chefs spoke to each dish & their culinary knowledge was excellent. The tartare needs to be a staple.View more
Unique Indian dining experience. 8 course tasting menu served over 2-3hours with a chef's explanation behind the history of each course & the ingredients used. Highly recommend if you want to try something new.View more
This place is phenomenal. I highly recommend getting the seats by the kitchen for an immersive experience. The chef's take on fine dining & integrating Indian cuisine is done remarkably well.View more
What a fantastic, authentic & unique experience. The food was absolutely delicious, the fish was the best fish dish I've ever had. The owner & his wife are the kindest people & deserve all of the success. The hard work that went into Katha & the culinary journey is evident in every bite. We left full & happy - great value for money. Can't wait to come back.View more
Went for the 8 course tasting menu mid week on a Wednesday. Very quiet but perfect for us. Easily the best meal I've ever had. Every dish was perfectly cooked & seasoned & delicious. Having the chefs come out each course to talk about the dish & relate it back to their lives in India was really special. Our server was attentive, friendly & knowledgeable. An absolute must for a special night out. We will be back.View more
Our experience at Katha was gastronomic bliss. From the pre-dinner cocktails to the desserts, everything was perfectly executed. The flavours of each dish are indescribable. All I can suggest is you go experience this three hour, 8 course tasting menu of wildly exceptional Indian flavours for yourself. Also, the ambiance was elegant & the staff were extremely professional, personable & knowledgeable. & don't pass on the wine pairings! You will not regret it. Thank you, Chef!View more
