“The food!!!! We had the Let the chef cook for you! Best value and most delicious meal you will ever have! Having the chef come out with the waiter to explain what was in each dish / course was also fun. They took extra care because of allergies too! And of course get a fancy cocktail, you won’t regret it 😉“

“We love side hustle! Have never had anything but a stellar experience. Food is unique and delicious, cocktails are amazing. The restaurant itself is beautiful too but my favorite part is the service! It’s 10/10 every time and we’re always looking forward to going back.“

“Hands down my favorite weekend brunch spot! The food is so flavorful, potatoes so crispy, just absolutely brilliant by Chef Rico!! Great food, super reasonable price, and you likely won't need to eat another meal the same day. Highly recommend.“

“My husband and I shared our entrees . He had the fish and chips and I had pan fried halibut. Generous pieces of fish fish in both meals and chips were not greasy. The pan fried halibut was what I wanted not highly seasoned served with lemon.
I do not recommend the side salad: dressing full of chunky raw garlic in a little paper medication cup. The beet and goat cheese salad came without any goat cheese; but in general the food was quite good“

“Amazing spot for drinks and food!!“

“The food at this restaurant was absolutley delicious. The server we had was gregarious, friendly, polite and knew excatly when to come by and when to leave us alone. The only set back was the crowed nature of the restaurant. The popularity of the place ment that you had to skilled at reading lips in order to communicate with your table mates.“

“My wife and I had dinner here this past Saturday. Our first but not last visit to Ragazzi. The service and atmosphere was wonderful and our meals were absolutely delicious. We can't wait to go back.“

“A Hidden Gem!

Reta's is a delightful spot where every dish bursts with flavor and the service is always warm and welcoming. From the first bite to the last, everything we ordered was absolutely delicious. It's a quiet, cozy place that lets you truly enjoy your meal and the company you're with. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a relaxing dining experience with amazing food!

I wish the plating of the duck dish would be a bit different. We couldn't enjoy the sauce much without ordering the sourdough bread. Also if spoons were provided without asking as the sauces go to waste and we cannot enjoy them with the fork so the amazing sauces are wasted.“

“Love tapas style dining but usually difficult with multiple food allergies. Extremely accommodating with no loss to the flavour, options and presentation of the dishes! Staff very friendly and knowledgeable! One of my top choices in Halifax now!“

“Very nice restaurant, ambiance was great. The bartenders are very nice, they make the best cocktails I’ve ever drank. The food was very good as well, chicken melts in your mouth and the avocado mousse in the tuna was delicious.

If you want a culinary experience with good drinks in downtown Halifax, this is the spot!“

“Gorgeous atmosphere. Excellent service. Original, flavorful menu. Beautiful presentation. Highly recommended.“

“As a person who travels alone a lot, I want to share my experiences about the awesome staff and great food that Le Rouge has to offer. While the menu is small it has something for everyone. Excellent apps , the most delicious steaks, seafood and the best Chocolate Cake. As a returning customer on the first night the Seth waiter /bartender ( recognized me and commented that I was here for my annual show. A year later he remembers my wine choice recommends a the best choice of a steak and of course my dessert taking great care in making sure my allergy to shrimp was never a threat. On my second night, again he recommends the Le Rouge burger that arrives hot and delicious and he tells me that my first choice of nachos contains a fish sauce that might contains shrimp he probably served dozens of customers but still remembered my allergy. I greatly appreciate that the staff was friendly with small talk and checking up me Seth and his new buddy Charbel were awesome to watch as they mixed up a constant array of drinks. With a great atmosphere, delicious food and supreme staff I give Le Rouge a 12 out 10 . I ate at Le Rouge for 6 nights and every meal was awesome 🤩“

“This was my first time at The Cannery, Bedford Row in downtown Halifax. I was greeted by friendly staff and my first thought was of the cleanliness of the restaurant and the staff were sharply dressed. The ambiance was chic and it was decorated in classy high end furnishings. I choose a both, yet still had a great view of Halifax harbour. The Braised Short Rib Pappardelle was cooked flawlessly and the sauce was tasty delicious. I look forward to the steak on my next visit. Mixologist Abi is amazing and pours the best tasting cocktails the city has to offer. His drinks please both the eye and the taste buds as he has a few tricks up his sleeve. Thanks again to everyone at The Cannery for a tasty meal and tasty drinks. See you all again soon. Cheers“

“Our food and service was 10/10. We had the chowder (incredible! Best I've ever had), the fish and chips (so good and a very large piece of fish), clam linguine (flavor was amazing, lovely presentation) and lobster roll with Ceasar salad (sooooo good). Our service was wonderful, and the atmosphere was cozy and quiet, especially considering the restaurant location is in the centre of the hotel. Overall, we had a wonderful meal and may even dine there again tonight.“

“Went here for the first time with a friend and we were very happy with our experience. The food was yummy, coffee was good and the server was pleasant. Would definitely go back again!“
