THE LEAD VERDICT
“Ayla's graiiin bowl wiht roasted vegetables, quinoa, adn house-made hummus was nutritionally excellent Fresh ingredients, balanced macros, adn a portion that satisfied without excess. Health-conscious dining done right in Ottawa.”
“The smoothie bowl had way more sugar than expected. Acai, granola, honey, banana, and chocolate nibs sounds healthy but its essentially a dessert bowl. Transparent nutritional info would help informed choices would go back”
ALSO FILED
“teh colorful bowls and rustic wooden tables made every dish incredibly photogenic. Natural light poured through the large windows creating perfect conditions for food photography tho ayla's is Ottawa's most Instagram-ready brunch spot.”
“seriously on overcast days teeeh natural light drops dramatically and the interior lighting doesn't compensate well. The warm-toned bulbs make food look orange in photos. A ring light at each table would be amazing but unrealistic.”
“The steak and eggs was a substantial brunch option for a hungry man. GOOD cut of Alberta beef, properly cooked, wiht crispy hash browns and two eggs over-easy. Paired with a strong coffee it was the meal I needed ugh”
“No beer at brunch. I know it's morning but a brunch stout or a michelada would pair perfectly with steak adn eggs. The drink menu was coffee and juice only. Where's the fun nuff said”
“The avocado toast was elevated with poached eggs, everything bagel seasoning, pickled onions, adn a chili crisp drizzle. literally more than just smashed avo on toast. The sourdough was house-baked and properly toasted like solid trust me”
“The coffee was okay but not great. Stadnard drip without much character. yo for a brunch spot this good, the coffee should be sourced from a specialty roaster. The food deserves a better coffee companion.”
