So it's really late and we wanted to go out for drinks and a bite. The place we'd originally wanted was packed to the rafters so we started to walk back to the car when...there was Icehouse. 2 folks from Ottawa, one from Toronto and my partner and myself - we were greeted promptly and the friendly and welcoming service continued right through the experience. Drinks were not only great but special requests were accommodated without a second thought. I am in love with the bourbon lemonade, so refreshing and wickedly wonderful. We sat out on the porch and had THE best time. Didn't want too much to eat but the old fashioned beef tacos really hit the spot. The Ottawa folks asked for some of the fried chicken with one taking the coleslaw and the other the potato salad. The raves over the chicken, the incredible corn bread kept coming with superlatives being added with almost every mouthful. I personally loved the potato salad though some found it too sweet. The coleslaw was just right. I can't wait to go back there and really dive into some of their other dishes. What a find! What a treat!
