Almost everything I had was restaurant quality if not better! Lots of variety, not too veg friendly but some. The students did an amazing job cooking and the hospitality students were very attentive. I love see all their sweet happy faces while they see everyone enjoy and appreciate their hard work! Were going to have so amazing restaurant in a few years!Vegetarian options: Some dishes but probably not as many as you'd likeDietary restrictions: Foods are labeled with nuts or gluten

After a somewhat disappointing first experience at Ernest's, maitre d' Mandeep reached out to offer my mom and I a second experience for dinner. This act of incredible generosity and hospitality already sealed the deal for us, but dinner totally blew us out of the water.The meal was outstanding - every single course had me wanting to scrape my plate to get every little bit of sauce, but I would especially recommend the gnocchi and the duck in sour cherry sauce.We also had the immense pleasure of chatting with Austin, a graduating pastry student. Not only was his bright, cheerful demeanor the perfect pairing for his obvious passion for pastry, but his dessert recommendations knocked our socks off. The strawberry petit gateau was light and fluffy, and the chocolate petit gateau? Wow! The burst of passion fruit really cut through the rich chocolate, and if that pastry was available at my local bakery, I would absolutely eat it again.This experience showed us the immense professionalism and passion of Ernest's staff - every member of staff we had the pleasure of speaking to was friendly and knowledgeable. I can guarantee we'll be return customers!

As a former NAIT student myself, I was very impressed with the level of sophistication throughout the night. From the first greeting right until the end, everything was just so. Although some of the flavours were beyond the scope of my palette, I thoroughly appreciated the creativity, innovation and genuine talent of these new Chefs. We'll definitely be visiting again soon.

We visited Ernest's for dinner after many months. The restaurant wasn't full, but the dining room had the same simple, but inviting vibe. Our server was friendly and professional in explaining the dinner and drink options. The mocktail and the old fashioned tasted the way they should, and our appetizers (salmon tartare and smashed cucumber smeared with skyr and fresh vegetables) delectable. The mains arrived shortly after our palette cleansing sorbetto. We both had the flank steak with steamed broccoli and other veggies, and a peppercorn sauce which was fantastic. We finished our meal with a dark chocolate gateaux that was not too sweet and fresh. All in all another fantastically satisfying meal at Ernest's, a place that we are going to miss when we leave Edmonton next month.

The student-staff were excellent! We took the set menu, and the pastry students also showed us the dessert options on a cart and described them to us. We also got a rose because it was Valentine's Day weekend. This was the best value dinner we have ever had.

A "perfect" evening. From the dining room to service to the fabulous food. Presentations were impressive as well. Terrific staff. We also loved the desert cart. I would certainly recommend this gem to anyone. Can't beat the price for 5-star dining.
Everything was lovely! The food was so well seasoned, and perfect! The desert cart was such a wonderful touch! I loved talking with the pastry student. Our server Cindy was lovely. Informative, attentive, and kind! ? I would go here every week if I could! ?

Wonderful dinner. Our server Tron was excellent. There was a rose waiting for me on the table and the dessert cart with all the goodies made it tough to choose. Also the wine selection and price just can't be beat. See you next time

Great lunch at Ernest's. The service was good and the food was awesome. Really good value. My only complaint would be having to pay $12.50 to park (evening parking is free). We also had to drive around a few times to get a spot.

Our group of 4 colleagues were newbies at this diner. We had lunch, we all happened to order different foods and everyone was more than pleased with their selections. The staff all around were very friendly and pleasant. Can't wait to go back and try other items!!!!

The pork chop cooked normal as I did in home. I tasted and it is little worse than what I cooked. The water is kinda losed inside. But still, all good to the works. Good works. I tasted 2 soup and one traee and one entree, 2 deserts. The price is so cheap also, only 45 in total
