Randy ReidSeptember 22, 2013Great experience. Panko fish and chips are light and crispy. We tried oysters for the first time. Art our server was great. He showed us how to do it right. Crab cakes are fantastic. We'll come back.Upvoted Sep 8- Jason FaberAugust 16, 2011Hidden Gem! Fantastic food and friendly service. The crab cakes and salmon were absolutely delicious. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend the Pelican to anyone! Make a reservation, it's a small place.Upvoted Sep 14
- Yuliya NewJuly 8, 2018We had different types of oysters and they were delicious and fresh! I didn’t really like escargot toasts as they were pretty plain.. although I like escargot in garlic sauce normally.
- Best fishmonger in town! Small shop attached to perfectly good restaurant. Try the hot smoked salmon, yummy. Always fresh, friendly people, open later than most shops of this size/scope. Next to Fa

OttawasBestCoffeeJuly 19, 2011The fish here is always super fresh and never disappoints. I recommend picking up some Sockeye Salmon filets.
Nick DawsonJuly 17, 2013Great seafood, fresh or cooked. Particular favourite: try their smoked salmon, hot or cold smoked.
Sylvie PaquetteJuly 20, 2011Great lobster, crab cakes, mussels, scallops. Calamari left a bit to be desired, but still good. Great atmosphere and service!
The lobster bisque here is my fav! I get it every time, even order it for take out.
Pelican Fishery & GrillDecember 4, 2012All December $1 Malpeque Oyster from 11:30 to 4:30pm in the Grill. Served with Simon's Hot sauce and house mignonette.
Scott SJuly 25, 2013Just enjoyed a fantastic lunch...Everyone loved the food and the service was excellent!
Metro NewsJanuary 26, 2010These guys are great fishmongers, but they're not chefs. The Clam Chowder had sand in it, the Calamari was undercooked and bland, while the Swordfish was just dull. Trout's mushroom sauce was nice. Read more

We have a freshly renovated dining room and are listed in the top ten of Trip Advisor restaurant in Ottawa. But do not fear! We are not an "in place" for cool cats and hipsters. We are just regular folks selling the highest quality fish since 1978. wild + responsible farmed = sustainable

"New owners ( Whalesbone) did a fabulous job of lovingly renovating the classic old Elmdale Tavern. Best place for seafood in Hintonburg and lovely long U-shaped bar"

"Amazing oysters. Freshly shucked right in front of you with scotch as a topping condiment option. Who’d have thought? But it works."
