Mandy’s Salads, the renowned gourmet salad restaurant founded by sisters Mandy and Rebecca Wolfe, is opening its first location in Ottawa on August 15, with a grand opening.
Located at 581 Bank St, this 2000 square-foot space marks its 16th restaurant in Canada and its debut in the nation’s capital.
The company said the opening is an important step in its expansion plan as the brand brings its fresh, feel-good food and distinctive style to a vibrant new community.
“We couldn’t be prouder to bring Mandy’s here, in Ottawa. We created a space where people will feel inspired, connected, and nourished with the best Gourmet Salads. Every opening is a chance to build community through food, and we can’t wait to do that in Ottawa,” said Vanessa Fracheboud, President of Mandy’s Salads.
The company said fans of the brand can expect the same signature salads that have made Mandy’s a favourite. The menu will also feature hearty grain bowls, smoothies and seasonal specials like soups and limited-time salads.
“We’re so excited to finally open our doors in Ottawa, just in time to share our newest culinary offerings with a whole new neighborhood.” said Mandy Wolfe, Co-Founder of Mandy’s Salads. “As we grow, so does our menu: we’re now serving up wholesome, delicious meals from morning to night, starting with breakfast at 8 a.m., seven days a week.”
The aesthetic vision and unique items were all handpicked by sister and co-founder, Rebecca
Wolfe.
“This new location features Mandy’s signature decor style – from rich porcelain details and tropical touches to vintage accents and the sisters’ beloved family photo wall. Guests will
find inspiration drawn from Paris, New England, and the Bahamas, brought together to create a
warm, unforgettable dining atmosphere,” said the company.
“This opening marks an exciting milestone in Mandy’s story – one that celebrates over 20 years
of growth from a single salad counter in Montreal to a Canadian brand with a growing national
footprint. Ottawa is the latest chapter as they continue to bring fresh food and beautifully designed spaces to new guests across the country – and beyond.”
The brand was founded in Montreal in 2004 by sisters, Mandy and Rebecca Wolfe. Today, Mandy’s has eight locations in Montreal, six in Toronto, two best-selling cookbooks, dressings in grocery stores across Canada and more restaurants on the way – locally and internationally.
