welcome to

Johnny Farina

Our casual Italian restaurant has made its comfortable home over two floors and three rooms in a former movie theatre in Ottawa’s trendy Elgin Street district. Situated in the larger of the two original theatres our dining room boasts spectacular 35 foot ceilings. This accommodates an open concept kitchen that hosts our beloved wood oven being constantly & carefully tended to by our quick moving Pizzaiolo's.

the

bar /lounge

Tucked in behind our deli and out of sight from the busy street, our lounge is a bit of a hidden oasis. The atmosphere is a calmer and cozier alternative to the hustle and bustle of the main dining room. The lounge’s layout offers a quieter experience through lower ceilings and a variety of alternative seating options including: bar style high-tops, traditional bistro seating and a few cozy booths tucked away to the side.

Since 2008, our deli has been a neighbourhood favourite, serving homemade soups, Italian-style paninis, and fresh salads made to order. With daily and weekly specials, there's always something new to enjoy. Join us for lunch between 11:30 am and 2:30 pm, and in the warmer months, treat yourself to our rotating selection of authentic Italian gelato.
Buon Appetito!
