Restaurants in Halifax

“The food was fantastic and Costas provided great service and enhanced our dining experience!”

“We had excellent service on Canada Day 2024 with our friendly waitress Pal. She was very helpful and kept checking on our party of 12 ages from 3 to 80, to make sure everyone had what they wanted. She put treats on the Robot and had the children go get their treats off the tray on it, which was a highlight for them. We could tell she enjoys waitressing because she does it to perfection. The food was delicious and plated appetizingly, too!”

“Dined in for my birthday and it was amazing all around! The food was absolutely to die for (specifically the calamari and the tagliatelle--omg). It tasted so fresh and flavourful. The service was equally as good. The staff are very professional, attentive, and thought of everything. The restaurant itself is very quaint and intimate which makes for a perfect vibe. I have lived in Halifax for years and enjoy dining out and this was the best restaurant I have been to in recent memory. Definitely a hidden gem. I will be back!”

“We had gone out with friends for a lunch and tried all the different menu items. We thoroughly enjoyed each and every meal, be it the beef pockets, noodles, dumplings but the best one was the fried rice. The flavours are authentic, meal portions are great and the ambience is amazing and the best part is it’s all halal. If you are in downtown, I highly recommend trying this restaurant!”

“We had an awesome lip smacking dinner today. Authentic desi Chinese main course and great tandoori for appetizers. The masala fries was a sweet surprise which is a first time for us in halifax restaurant menu. Hope you keep serving great food like this thanks”

“The pizza Lou Fada and Lou Buou were delicious. Our server Solana was lovely, informative and obviously enjoyed serving. It was so nice to see Cedric chat with patrons at the tables and check on his guests. A great dinner. Thank-you.”

“Aster’s Cafe is the only place I will eat at, the food is healthy and very good tasting. I give this place 5 stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

“We went to Moxies for the very first time. We had fast service, staff was extremely nice. The food came quick and was absolutely delicious. I would definitely go back again.”

“just had the most amazing dinner we've had in a long time. from start to finish service, presentation everything was on point. highly recommend!! 💯 percent Scrumdiddlyumptious”

“I just had a culinary adventure at Edna’s in Halifax that was nothing short of spectacular. The staff were so friendly and knowledgeable, I felt like I was dining with my own personal food guru! And the food? Insanely good—like if flavor and perfection teamed up for a gourmet showdown. We devoured lobster toast, beet salad, braised beef grilled cheese, and beef tartar. Each bite was a flavor explosion that left my taste buds in a standing ovation. We will be back!”

“We again had another great meal and an enjoyable night out with friends. The cocktails and wine choices were spot on and everything we selected from their menu (a lot of new choices since we were last there) were all delicious. This is our go-to place in Halifax for a great evening out for dinner when catching up with another couple.”

“Tried the chicken bahn mi tonight and it was exceptional. The bread was fresh and the chicken was delicious. Friendly, fast service as well.”

“Nice place to relax, great food and pastries. Great customer service! Kids friendly. Dog friendly. Must try anything with Ube.”

“We had a wonderful date night. The food was excellent service was amazing. Such a great place to go.. highly recommend”

“The staff and server were very friendly, and appetizers and desserts are free for orders over $25 at the table. (We chose spring rolls and chocolate ice cream.) The food tasted great, and I will visit again with a friend.”

“My hubby and I have eaten breakfast at your restaurant two different times and both times enjoyed it very much. However, I have a question. As you go through the door u see the sign Canadian Owned and also Truly Canadian. Then why are you not using French's catsup instead of Heinz. In our home we use only French's and it is Canadian. Thank you!!.”

“We treat ourselves 3 or 4 times per year at Amano...always outstanding food & service. Never had just an ok experience....very nice.”

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

“If you're craving authentic Indian flavors, The Adda Indian Eatery is a delightful spot that doesn’t disappoint. We tried their chole bhature and a cup of chai, and both were a hit. The chole was rich, well-spiced, and perfectly balanced—not overly oily, which is often the case elsewhere. The bhature came out hot and fluffy, with just the right amount of crisp on the outside and softness inside. It’s the kind of comfort food that makes you feel right at home. To top it off, their **tea** was just as impressive—brewed strong with aromatic spices, slightly sweet, and served piping hot. It paired beautifully with the meal and rounded off the experience nicely. The ambiance was cozy with a casual, homely vibe, and the staff were friendly and attentive. If you're in the mood for a hearty, flavorful Indian meal, The Adda is definitely worth a visit. 👍👍❤️❤️❤️”

“Amazing food!!! Freshest oysters I’ve ever had!!! Service was impeccable!! You won’t be disappointed!”

“Best chai latte I ever had”

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

“Great all around. Food was very good and the waitress was very friendly! ordered a lot of stuff over the menu and wasn't disappointed at all.”

“Place was recommended by a friend and it was a great spot for dinner ! Beautiful interior and decor. Appetizers and mains were amazing ! Dessert was rich but worth it . Staff was very attentive ! Great location in the heart of downtown Halifax Would definitely go back if we visit Halifax again!”

“beautifully cooked steak, delicious cacio e pepe, fantastic service, great atmosphere.”

“Cozy ambience, great service and flawless food!”

“Top tier food and service. Jonathan and Matt were great!! Love this restaurant ❤️👌🏻”

“Stop letting all the muscle cars park outside your store till 10pm or later. They all rip out of your drive way and down the highway making so much noise waking up the neighborhood and driving irrationally. I assume the Tims owner is a car guy. But this needs to stop and complaints have been sent to corporate.”

“This mcdonald's is my absolute favourite. The fries are always ALWAYS fresh like the platonic ideal of mcdonald's fries. These sweet workers remade my wrap after i had ordered it wrong, they were so sweet. The workers here make the location and they deserve a raise!!”

“I always go to this location on my trek to work. The staff is always friendly and some know me by order and name. Sometimes there's a slip up with an order but everyone is kind and understanding and quickly remedy the mistake. It's is a crazy fast paced environment and I see how some assholes treat the foreign staff, makes me sick. Have some patience ffs”

“I like how they were able to deliever my order fast and the food that i took was very well cooked and it was tasty as a picky eater i like this restro and would highly recommend others to go try for it.”

“I just want to say thank you for being open @ 4am. I was hungry and made the trek from the harbour and was so excited that you were open! People can complain about a lot of things but you were there when I needed you. Again, I appreciate the service and the much needed food, thank you.”

“I can't handle the big meals like a big mac. I get the happymeals because it's just enough food for me. They offer grinch ornaments in them. I give them to my grandson as he loves them. My fave is the chicken wrap. It's vg

Dietary restrictions: I've had part of my colon removed so I can't handle the regular size meals anymore

Wheelchair accessibility: Handicap parking & handicap friendly entrance”

“Drive-thru visit with a buddy on the way home. The property is well lit with ample parking. All areas have good signage. Ordered at the drive-thru speaker and it was seamless paying with my payment method on the app. We had a couple of burgers and fries, an Oreo Blizzard, an ice cream cone and a Fruitopia. All was as expected and fresh. Staff were friendly and helpful. Good visit.”

“Got 3 mcflurries and 2 pops at the drive through. Service at this location is amazing; the staff are incredibly curious and friendly, a type of service I have to say you don't get at very many places anymore. I hope the staff are treated well by the owner, because I was very impressed at how they spoke and did their job. We got our order quickly even though they were steady. Easy 5/5 stars for me.”

“and of course their coffee... yummy..”

“I go to this place almost every day. The guys who work here are great! They always take their work responsibly, everything is always done efficiently and quickly, thank you!
Also, many thanks to the cleaning ladies for the cleanliness.”

“The gentleman that was working this morning at 3 am was very pleasant we ordered breakfast and he said usually at this hour we don’t do hash browns but for us he did. The food was hot and fresh great service”

“I go to the Mumford McDonald’s multiple times a week. The staff - particularly the drive thru girls, are amazing, personable and patient. Treat your people with respect and they return it. They know my order and my dog loves them. McDonald’s food is McDonald’s food, but the people make it.”

“Great takeaway coffee bar (no sit in option). Was in a quandary on whether to have a flat white or a latte. Ended up with a hybrid, a latte with an extra shot. Great decision as it was delicious ?”

“Great food and atmosphere.”

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ !! The Prospect Road location is going to be such a well loved location - so much so that, I don’t think the staff realized how much of the community would flock there. They’re BUSY, and out of ingredients, but the staff there were HUSTLING around, smiling and getting orders out that they could. I expect delays at the beginning. They never expected so much traffic, give them patience folks and expect a mess up in your order possibly or wait until they are fully loaded and in the flow with the area. Otherwise incredible sub (despite picking off a couple things I didn’t ask for), the bread was amazing, still 10/10 would go back, and didn’t even care it was chaotic. Inside though although small, its essentially a novelty convenience store with local goodies. They have a little bakery section with homemade stuff, the moon mist fudge was incredible and a must try! They also had a bunch of “Jones Soda” flavours that I’ve never seen before anywhere around here - even at the big candy stores, (like s’mores and the fallout edition one) which was pretty cool!! They still have ice cream and everything that was at multi scoop - just with a lot more options and delicious fresh options to go. Something for ANYONE at a really reasonable price. Prospect needed this so much - thank you, and good luck with your continued success! 🎉♥️”

“Very good food, and service”

“A beautiful atmosphere! Very attentive staff and scrumptious food every time!”

“We stopped in here for lunch before heading to the airport to go back home. What a great restaurant!! The owners are absolutely wonderful, the food was so good and flavourful. They have some vegan and vegetarian options as well. My partner had a vegan arepa and loved it. I had the chilaquiles verdes with chicken, it was amazing!”

“Fantastic! We enjoyed a beautiful girls’ brunch. The food was delicious- so many options and custom dishes. Fabulous service and super cozy seating. Loved our time, thank you!”

“I don't get there nearly as often as I would like, but it's one of my favourite coffee shops in Halifax. Great food and drinks, lovely staff, and cute decor!”

“Your food always looks so colourful and exciting!! I know 100% it is super tasty too. Your love for community and fellow man is admirable.”

“Excellent vegan restaurant! A favourite when we’re in the city!”

“Back for another visit with a friend. Lovely quiet spot that allows for relaxed dining and conversation. I had the Pain Perdu (French Toast)... the best French Toast I have ever had... very decadent with ice cream and whipped cream and maple syrup. I'll be back for more soon!”

“Delicious latte and blueberry oatmeal muffin, great service and atmosphere.”

“Absolutely delicious food. Top tier service. Comfortable and clean space.

If you like sushi, they have it. If you want ramen, they have one option and it is perfect.

The takoyaki was exactly what I wanted. I had a bunch of salmon sushi and California rolls. Every piece was incredible. My husband had the ramen and it's some of the best we've ever had. Definitely the best we've had in the Halifax area.

I shop nearby fairly regularly and now expect that I'll just make sure those trips have enough time to stop in for a bite.

Literally cannot recommend this place enough. I'm in love.”

“The service was terrific until near the end of our visit when we had to wait 20 minutes for a sushi roll after ordering it through their tablet. We also had to wait a while to get a server's attention for our bill. Overall, it was a great experience, and we loved the all-you-can-eat option.”

“This place is INCREDIBLE!! If you're thinking about going, DEFINITELY DO! We spent the year in Portland, Oregon (a vegan wonderland) and Wild Leek has the best vegan food I've eaten all year, and the best vegan mac and cheese I've had in my life. Amazing flavors, amazing textures. These folks nail it! Ocean was a wonderful host and kindly let us charge our laptops and get some work done over lunch. Support these wonderful women!

Dietary restrictions: Vegan and Gluten-free options.”

“First visit. Had breakfast sandwich and coffee. Both AMAZING!!”

“Have only been in once as I was passing by going to another business on the street. Service is amazing, friendly staff. Dirty chai latte is delicious. Didn't get food, but plan to next time. Nice cozy place inside a boxing business. Didn't see anyone boxing, but nice for day time coffee with one other person.”

“The lettuce wrap is great whether you get beef or chicken with it and the staff are super friendly.”

“I wanted to take a moment to share how much I enjoyed our visits to your restaurant. The food was delicious, and the atmosphere was lively and welcoming, which really added to the overall experience.

I’d also like to give a special shout-out to Sunny, who went above and beyond in making all our visits memorable. She was incredibly friendly, attentive, and made sure we had everything we needed throughout the night. Her positive energy and warm service truly made a difference, and we really appreciated it.

Thank you for a fantastic evening! I’m looking forward to returning soon and will definitely recommend your restaurant to my friends and family.”

“Was super excited to try this restaurant but it was not as great as I expected. The meals are extremely large in size and you definitely get your moneys worth! The lamb noodles were yummy and the quality of the beef short ribs were great! However, the ice cream was extremely expensive for just a few spoonfuls and I was a bit confused on why they would add mango popping pearls as it was brown sugar milk tea flavoured ice cream. As well, the shaved ice was an extreme letdown :( The ice was very chunky and was not shaved down at all, so instead of being creamy, the halo halo was very sharp and crunchy. The appearance of all the dishes were all so beautiful and the restaurant was so cozy? Overall, I would recommend coming here if you’ve been wanting to try it out, but for me personally, the taste of the food was a let down (especially the deserts). However, I would recommend this place for their main meals as the portions are generous and the atmosphere and customer service was great!?”

“Great food and filly. Specially the desert.”

“First time having BUD the SPUD today and let me tell you, it did not disappoint! Food was fresh, hot and delicious! Staff were super friendly & customer service was excellent. 10/10 hands down best burger I have ever eaten - didn’t even have time to get a picture of it, so that speaks for itself.”

“After an uncharacteristically unfortunate dining experience, Peacock was back in its stride as an exceptional dining spot. Our Sober Island oysters were luscious, burrato decadent, the doppio ravioli intensely flavourful and the trout fresh and done perfectly. Our server, Mattie, was also exceptional and well versed on the menu and wine. We left feeling well looked after and savouring still all the flavours of the evening! Thank you, Peacock!”

“Great location, nice atmosphere, friendly staff but food was just ok. I wanted to love it because it’s such a cute spot. I even went back two more times, but the food was unfortunately just average each time.”

“A must try place for varieties of options from Apetizers to entre to main course.
Pricing can be a little better. Service is top notch. The portion is good enough for 1 person only. Not shareable. Must try indian restaurant. Kids friendly item can be an advantage. It lacks items for kids under 5 years of age.

Kid-friendliness: No kids menu or kids friendly items

Wheelchair accessibility: No wheelchair accessibility”

“Such delicious food. Can’t wait to come back”

“Exceptional food and ambiance will definitely return.👌”

“Enjoyed our first (but certainly not our last) dining experience at Ragazzi. It was amazing from start to finish. From the lovely greeting at the door, to our knowledgeable and entertaining server Lucas, it was an evening to remember. Our meals were a gourmet delight and were nothing short of perfection. From the flaming shrimp and scallops, to the insanely delicious halibut, veal parmigiana and lasagna, we have no words. Lucas was attentive to all our needs and he can whip up a wicked martini! We wholeheartedly endorse everything about Ragazzi and will be back soon. Thank you for an exceptional evening Ragazzi!!”

“friendly staff , topped the way you like it”

“I ordered Taylor Swift Cookies for my friends 30th birthday. It was kind of last minute and I'm located in Newfoundland. Halsey Cakes took my order and was so easy to deal with. The cookies were beautiful and my friend absolutely loved them. Highly recommend Halsey Cakes.”

“Beautiful spot, great service. Food was cooked well and tasty.
The music was unpleasant, and did take away from being able to fully enjoy the restaurant.”

“As brief visitors to Halifax, we went with recommendations from our conference organizers and boy are we glad that we did. Drift was amazing, from the fantastic and next level servers to the wine, and then finally to the seafood tower. The oysters on half shell, the mussels, the lobster and crab salad, the scallops ceviche and everything else included was just what we were looking for. What a great experience, and one we could not leave Halifax without having. We won't forget this dinner for a long time.”

“If you would like an amazing culinary experience then you should definitely try the Barrington Steakhouse! From the moment we walked in, we were treated like royalty. The staff were absolutely incredible. The host, the server, the bartender were all so great and made our dinning experience unforgettable. The food though, was definitely where the term “chef’s kiss” must have originated from. It was quite evident, that the chef takes pride in all of the dishes. The Beef Wellington well exceeded my expectations. Definitely 5 star rating!”

“Th absolute best customer service I have ever had in my life. I don't catch the guys name but he was so knowledgeable it was just amazing. I am very pleased with y purchase!”

“Amazing breakfast sandwich!”

“Me and my Daughter and my Grandson were in for breakfast this morning we all had steak and eggs it was absolutely delicious. keep up the great work, highly recommended.”

“Enjoyed a lovely breakfast. Meals are delicious and affordable, the environment very relaxed, staff are wonderful!”

“The best, real espresso. Love it.”

“Went for lunch today and had the Pho and the "Banh Mi" (meat bread). The good: The broth of the Pho is easily the best in HRM, great flavour and mouth feel and you can actually see some liquid fat floating there. The noodle were well cooked and the portion of beef was good. The baguette of the banh mi was excellent as was the meat. The not so good: The choice of meat for the Pho was very basic. There are many of us out there that would like very rare beef, beef ball, tendon and even tripe. I've never seen this option offered in Halifax and would be very impressed if I did. The Pho also needs more accompaniments, I got a small segment of lime, an ample supply of mung bean sprout and one piece of cilantro. I want to see Thai Basil and bird eye chili, and more cilantro and lime. The "Banh Mi" has one option for filling and while it is very good, I would like to see a variety of options. Cold cuts, pates, pork belly slices, satay beef should be a standard variety of options. I'd also like to see it offered as a banh mi sandwich with kewpie, pickled daikon/carrot, cucumber, cilantro and chili's. The Verdict: I will be back. The Pho and meat bread, while basic are very well done. I would be back even more frequently if some of my suggestions about were added. There is a real need for solid Pho and Banh Mi on the peninsula and Red Satay is the closest yet and it wouldn't take much to elevate it to a weekly must go.”

“I've been loving cafe taiakiy since they first opened and I'm overjoyed there still thriving. and absolutely delicious and unique treat in downtown halifax and in i will always reccomend them to anyone looking for a nice expirence and sit down. extra points of course for dietary options for both vegan and gluten free batter, keep on rocking yall!!”

“I wish I had a picture of the milkshake I ordered. It was literally the best milkshake I’ve ever had, and I’m over 40 years old so that means something. I’ll be going back, maybe just before I see a movie. 👏”

“Great service. Good coffee and food.”

“We stopped in for some Sushi while travelling from Newfoundland and were not only surprised on how great the food was but also the service. We will definitely be back!!”

“Best breakfast sandwich off the charts excellent service coffee is always perfect. Soup is always guaranteed healthy. Non-dairy completely tasty. It’s a place you can trust. The baked goods are deadly. Really good place!!”

“On a day pouring with rain we all need a hot cup of coffee. This is the place to get it.

This little cafe is cute as a button and as expensive as one too, an easy place to just sit with a good cup of coffee and enjoy the atmosphere. The barista is very friendly and it was a joy to talk to her, I even missed her when it was time to leave. Overall good place to go if you need a quick on the go or done in coffee”

“Tarek’s is always great! While living in Halifax it was my favourite place to eat, not just for 5he food but the welcome from Tarik, Karen and all of the staff. Sure wish there was a Tarek’s here!”

“Amazing food and service - we will definitely come back!”

“Super Reliable kausap lalo na pag dating sa oras! Masarap ang lumpia siksik at ndi puro hangin at wrapper. We like their pansit, ndi dry at luto ang gulay ndi matigas. We like their BBQ super malambot! keep up the good work, Ala Eh Eatery Crew. wag kayo magbabago kahit dumami customers nyo. Dont sacrifice you quality. More Customers to come!”

“Best almond croissants in Halifax!”

“I've heard several times about how good the Seoul Chicken is so I decided to try it today and it was superb! Not too sweet and not too spicy and the texture was terrific. I brought it back to my office and let a co-worker try it and she immediately changed her lunch plans and headed to Scotia Square to get some herself.”

“Tried the Canadian Classic and Small Donair. It was Amazing ? Staff are very friendly and service was quick.”

“the customer serivice s was great when i walked in and tryed to order he had asked me waht it was i wanted i would give therese guys 1 10 out of 10 not only do they have great food but a great cook that wants to taKE THE TIME TO GET IT RIGHT THanks guys your the best im caling now”

“I love their fish and the coleslaw. Beyond.that everything is just OK. Service is always friendly. HOWEVER the fries never takeout well and they are just ok as well. I ordered a coconut cream pie. By accident they gave me a chocolate pie. Drove all the way back to make the exchange. I was really craving coconut cream pie. Got home AGAIN Opened the box. Took a bite. It’s more than half whip cream. Fake not real and I could not taste any coconut. At all. Except the sprinkle of roasted coconut on the top. Not good at all.. Tossed it out! Not worth the calories. The absolute best coconut cream pie that I have had at a restaurant not a bakery is from The Armview! Homemade and absolutely delish. And worthy of the calories . Sorry guys. Just a big disappointment!”

“We had the pleasure to discover Lara Cafe during our vacation in Halifax with our 3 children. Our family thoroughly enjoyed the creamy oat milk lattes and colourful lemonades and we found ourselves retuning to the Cafe every day of our vacation. We had the opportunity to meet Lara, the owner, and it was immediately clear why this Cafe is so tastefully decorated, why the atmosphere is so enjoyable and the menu so very delectable. Thank you for adding much delight and fond memories to our family vacation! We will be sure to return every time we visit the East Coast! Merci beaucoup Lara :)”

“Pay NO ATTENTION TO BAD REVIEWS We live in Claton Park and found the ChineseVietnamese food the best we have ordered since moving here from Ontario a few years back. It was a little expensive but more than made up for that in quality. We had the order delivered in a bad rainstorm and a little girl showed up the credit card machine in hand looking like the wind would blow her away My wife and I are pretty old, and we were both impressed with the food We have ordered from quite a few places but Fon Sing is definitely the best”

“We treat ourselves 3 or 4 times per year at Amano...always outstanding food & service. Never had just an ok experience....very nice.”

“Group of work crew got together for a meal and then a Moose game on February 29th and not only enjoyed the food, the layout of the restaurant, but the waiter (Brandon) was amazing and made the whole experience of our first visit the best experience and we'll definitely return.”

“Absolutely excellent!! Lovely staff and a lovely owner as well. It's not very attractive inside, so I would hesitate to bring friends - because atmosphere matters to me...”

“Hey guys... Remember when we used to get Donairs as a kid that were so awesome? These guys sell it! It's the exact same thing. Absolutely amazing. We only order from these guys now in Halifax because they never let us down. Always the same consistent awesome food.”

“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”

“An opulent environment with outstanding service and high-quality dishes plated to perfection. I highly recommend Mera for a romantic dinner date or groups looking for an amazing overall experience. PS - The Mera Martini is fantastic!”

“We had an awesome lip smacking dinner today. Authentic desi Chinese main course and great tandoori for appetizers. The masala fries was a sweet surprise which is a first time for us in halifax restaurant menu. Hope you keep serving great food like this thanks”

“Busy place, but was able to walk-in and sit at the bar. Bartender was friendly and quick. Atmosphere was tasteful and warm. Lots of surfboards once you look around.
Food was incredible and after 3 drinks, 2 apps and 1 main...$88. Holy F. So cheap! Obiv if you get mains and cocktails it will be more, but I was so happy and full when I left.
I've already recommended them to friends visiting.”

“Wow so so impressed! My dinner was amazing!!! There was a small issue with my butter for my lobster and it was replaced immediately and my dinner was taken off my bill! I didn’t ask for any discount it was just automatically done on the bill! Unexpected and surprised! Thank you will highly recommend!!staff were lovely! Great job keg Halifax downtown!! Signed Tina from Ottawa”

Enjoyed the steak and chicken fajitas—both were flavourful and perfectly cooked. The staff was incredibly friendly, even wishing my daughter a happy birthday, which made the evening feel extra special. Plus, we were surprised with a complimentary dessert that was absolutely delicious. Highly recommend this place for great food and warm, welcoming service!”

“Went out for dinner with my partner, We had the fish and chips and the baklava, The food was okay, The service was great and it really wasn't too busy. So it was a good time.”

“5 star for service is a insult to how amazing the service was 100/5 to date the best service we have ever had at a restaurant. Hates off to the staff!

Food was excellent, recommend the calamari. They have a very elaborate wine and cocktail menu, the cocktails were mind blowing. The menu is limited in size but in a good way.

The restaurant is multi level so even though it was full it still felt intimate.

10/10 will dine again.”
