Rideau Gardens

Score Breakdown

About this Neighborhood

Rideau Gardens punches above its size on community feel, and its 19 restaurants pull a warm 4.5 across more than 1,500 Yelp reviews. The draws are beloved and specific: Stella Luna Gelato Cafe for the sweet, the Green Door Vegetarian Restaurant & Bakery as a longtime institution, and Jericho Lebanese Food for a quick, generous plate. Green space is the real luxury here, with eight parks and four courts giving the neighborhood room to spread out. A movie theater, pubs and cafes round out the leisure, and a handful of grocers plus a medical center keep the practical side covered close to home.
