Noche Maya - Gatineau

We ordered tacos and a burrito, but both were very bland with hardly any flavor. Surprisingly, there was no cilantro in either dish, which is unusual for a Mexican restaurant. The salad, which had all the flavors, was served on the side. Overall, the food lacked seasoning and needed improvement.

Do not bother trying this restaurant. Despite its enticing location and views from the top, the taste, quality, portion size, and prices will leave you very disappointed. I have never had such a bad experience before, even in basic restaurants. My wife and I ordered burritos, a simple and commonly enjoyed dish, but we were served with rice-filled wraps and had to ask for salsa. The plate came with only two small wraps, a small salad, and nothing else. Even a fast food chain would have been a better choice.

We were all very disappointed with our dining experience. The reviews about the service were accurate - it was extremely slow. We initially received water with bugs in the bottom of the glasses, and after the waitress took them away, we never received water again. She dropped multiple items while serving us, and one dish was not described accurately, resulting in half of it missing when it arrived. The taste of the food was bland and unimpressive, and we felt let down. The only positives were the tasty mixed drinks and the beautiful view of the river.

Second visit after an ok meal for the first time. the restaurant was a bit loud, but we wanted to try again. this time we shared the dining room with a table of friat boys who made dishes and scream. server did nothing to govern them, and our service was so slow that we could hear it for almost 2 hours. in my opinion, this place moves in the wrong direction. Maybe that's okay if they're looking for a place to drink corona and party on the deck, and don't have to worry about social pardons, but we won't be back.

We stopped by for a quick beer and stayed for over an hour. The view of the Ottawa and Gatineau Rivers was spectacular and the nachos were well priced and filling.
