Pigeonhole offers amazing charred cabbage and pork belly, with flavorful and unique dishes. The portion sizes are large and shareable, with knowledgeable and friendly service. The background music includes vinyl records, creating a distinctive dining experience. The shrimp cocktail, scallop crudo, charcoal roasted asparagus, and mushroom croquettes are stellar, complemented by great cocktails that add to the lively atmosphere. The starters like oysters are flavorful and well-seasoned, while the crispy profiterole ends the night on a sweet note. The menu is small but perfected, though the Alberta steak may disappoint some diners. The cozy space can get busy, but attentive and professional service ensures a really enjoyable evening. Recent reviews praise the restaurant as under-rated and consistently phenomenal, with staff providing perfect recommendations and items like schnitzel, tartare, croquettes, and especially the cabbage, which many find surprisingly crave-worthy. The scallop crudo is noted for its freshness and balance of tart and sweet notes, and the steak frites are cooked to textbook medium rare with crispy fries. Overall, the experience is highly recommended, despite occasional noise and seating issues during busy times.
