If Halifax municipality had a Michelin star or Michelin recommended restaurant - this would be it…. Do yourself a favour and order the chef’s menu with wine pairing, definitely a culinary experience.

Oxalis had been on our list for ages and we finally got the chance to enjoy the chefs experience menu with matching wines from the library. Everything was incredible! Definitely worth it.

We had the 6 course chefs tasting experience and it was absolutely amazing and truly one of the best restaurant experiences in all of Nova Scotia.

Food was really good, portions a bit small and expensive. The roasted veggies that came with my meal were very tiny....

If you get the tasting menu --- which is actually a pretty good deal! --- they bring you a little portable firepit and you can make passion fruit smores!
So far, this has been the best restaurant we’ve tried in Nova Scotia! Every dish was bursting with flavor, and the meat dishes were perfectly moist and tender. Overall, it was an outstanding dining experience.

Superb all around experience. We had the crispy avocado, steak, halibut, fries, cauliflower, corn, and ‘into the woods’ dessert. Everything tasted and looked incredible. Service was a nice balance of attentive and relaxed. The setting was comfortable, warm, and inviting. Can’t wait to return!

Great service and a relaxed, casual vibe. We ordered the chef’s menu along with a few other tempting options. The unexpected treats from the chef between courses were a delightful surprise and truly impressive. I highly recommend saving room for their dessert.
Some reviews mention the restaurant is overpriced, but I have to disagree. If you’ve done enough cooking at home, you’ll recognize that these dishes are far more than just good presentation—you can taste the time, effort, and skill that go into creating such well-balanced combinations. To get the same level of food and service in better location like downtown Halifax/Toronto/Montreal, you’d easily spend more.
One small suggestion: please consider adding window or door screens. We did end up with a few mosquito bites by the end of our meal.
