Canadian Restaurants near Eastern Passage, NS

“The food is always great and the waiters are friendly and helpful. Never had a bad experience and would definitely recommend it.“

“Holy smokes. Where do I start? Thanks to the entire Canteen family - and I say FAMILY purposefully as you feel the family atmosphere as soon as you arrive - for hosting our team for dinner last week. We booked out the whole restaurant and they did just what we hoped for: Maritime hospitality, wonderful, genuine service and knock-your-socks off food. The team from across Canada went bananas over the Crobster sandwich. The special welcome from the owners was a lovely touch. The guests raved all the way back across the harbour on the ferry about the wonderful meal from start to finish. It’s a lovely space that is not pretentious and puts an emphasis on fantastic food and exemplary service, with a genuine smile. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“The food in Edna is simply wonderful. Tartar as a starter was good, and the two fish dishes we had were perfect: halibut cheek and char with a Sauce Vierge both perfectly balanced. Service was excellent as well. Only downside was how loud it was.“

“Our first time at gio was fantastic, we will be back. the staff was very friendly. Thank you.“

“great food and best prices in halifax“

“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.“

“The chowder and jambalaya were great .!!!!!!!“

“Ohhhh my god I had to be rolled out I was so full. Best oysters I've ever had. Sat at the bar and chatted with the chef non-stop. 5 stars“

“We ordered empanadas, arepas and black beans for lunch. Everything was extremely delicious. Try the cheese and pork empanadas, and the pork arepas with extra cheese. wow!“

“Our server Victoria G. was very pleasant and helpful ..very nice to be able to eat without loud music blasting ...And the Canadian Eh Burger was delicious ....“

“One of the best dining experiences I had in Halifax. Everything at Drift felt thoughtful, from the beautiful waterfront setting to the genuinely warm and attentive service.

The Atlantic salmon tartare served in mini waffle cones was creative, fresh and beautifully presented. The Nova Scotia lobster hushpuppies were exceptional, crispy, rich and perfectly balanced by the citrus aioli. For my main, I had the roast chicken with rappie pie. The chicken was incredibly tender, and the rappie pie was comforting and full of flavour. It’s still chicken at the end of the day, but this exceeded every expectation I had.

The cocktails were also outstanding: distinctive, well-balanced and made with exactly the right amount of alcohol. The biggest surprise was a complimentary bite from the chef a delicate cracker which may genuinely have been the best bite of the entire meal.

Excellent food, creative presentation and 10/10 hospitality. Drift offers a real taste of Nova Scotia rather than simply another upscale restaurant meal. Absolutely worth visiting.“

“Jason was a great server and his recommendations were perfect.“

“Family of 4 coming out from BC and trying this place the first time. Everything was very good from food to our service. Drinks and food came out fairly quickly. Kristy was our service and she was very friendly and attentive. Highly recommend this restaurant.“
