“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.“

“Nice clean cosy feeling restaurant with friendly attentive staff. Dosa, curry, rice and naan were carefully presented and very tasty, mango lassi was especially tasty. Highly recommend.“

“Favourite restaurant in Halifax. Consistently exquisite meals and incredible service!“

“A sincere thank you to the wonderful staff at Moxie's Grill & Bar (Nova Centre location). We booked a reservation for seven people over the weekend and thoroughly enjoyed our dining experience. The staff were incredibly thoughtful, caring, and meticulous about our dietary needs (our group is entirely vegan with additional allergies). The service was excellent, the food was impeccable, and our server (Nikita W.) was so kind and attentive during our visit. I appreciate her talent and professionalism. She is an asset in such a demanding industry. We will definitely return to this location in the future. Much love and gratitude to the staff at Moxie's Grill & Bar. You have exceeded our expectations. Kind regards, -C.R. MacDonald“

“Had such an amazing day at Darya! ❤️ Celebrating my victory of passing my exam, I came in excited for a mimosa tree, only to find out it was a weekend special. I was definitely a little disappointed but still happy to stay and celebrate.

What I didn’t know was that our server Keagan, went above and beyond and must have spoken to the manager, who kindly made an exception. Such a thoughtful surprise that completely made my day! Amazing service, amazing experience, and such a great reminder that little acts of kindness can mean so much. Thank you for making my celebration extra special! 🥂✨“

“Had fried chicken Benny…was awesome!“

“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.“

“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“
