Step into the sunlight at Dark Fork’s outdoor patio, Ottawa’s first-ever sign language dining experience. Located in the heart of the Byward Market, this unique patio invites guests to order their meals entirely in American Sign Language (ASL) — no voice required.

Our patio is proudly staffed by Deaf servers who guide you through an inclusive and meaningful dining experience. Each menu item includes its ASL sign so that every guest can participate — whether it’s your first time signing or not.

This isn’t just outdoor dining — it’s a celebration of human connection, accessibility, and culture.
