I used to be a regular here but it’s slipping each time I go.
The lighting is constantly poor in there, we were sat at a table where there wasn’t really enough room for the plates. Staff seemed not to their usual attentive norm and the background noise made it hard to have a conversation.
The food was good, but again, for the prices charged something was just off. Normally I’m blown away when I come here, but this wasn’t the best experience and I’ll certainly choose elsewhere in future if I’m spending this kind of money.
There’s better in Halifax for this price

Delicious and so friendly!

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!

Great service. Nice inventive menu, and very good service. I had the lobster tagliatelle and while good, the flavours overpowered the lobster and it was a little salty. The radicchio salad was amazing. My husband had the blue dot rib eye, which, and at first was very disappointing for him as he asked for it medium rare and it came out well and was actually a little charred at one end. ( we rarely eat meat at home because our daughter a vegetarian) He stopped eating it but the server checked in she took care of it and the kitchen replaced the meal promptly. The steak came out perfectly, and was delicious/perfectly cooked (to the point we all tasted it!). Literally the best steak he ever had! They handled it so professionally which was appreciated. Everyone enjoyed the meals - we would certainly return. Sometimes a kitchen gets it wrong- but most of all, loved how it was handled.

The food was amazing!! Portions were great and each course came quicker than expected.
The service was also great. No pressure, the waiter was attentive and listed to what we were expecting.
The only thing to improve regarding atmosphere would be the tables, as ours was a bit smaller and we struggled with our plates. Also, the chairs could benefit of cushions. Otherwise, great!!

Süper friendly staff, coffee is okay but the breakfast is probably the best one I've had since I moved to Canada ?

Really creative menus with fresh ideas and really great food!
Fabulous menu with something for everyone. We shared two kinds of oysters as an appetizer. Lovely and fresh. I had the steak tartare and it was out of this world good. One friend had the halibut cheeks and another the braised beef special of the day. I tasted theirs and those dishes were amazing also. We opted to have dinner at the bar and service was friendly, welcoming, low key, and incredibly efficient. The place was small, a little crowded, and exactly the right vibe for an understated but utterly charming spot with spectacular food. When I return to Halifax 'll head straight to Edna!

The meals and cocktails were delicious. There was nice ambiance (a little dark - but that's why we have flashlights on our phones, right?). The place was busy and full the entire time we were there (6-9pm) but service did not suffer. Wait staff was very organized for our group of 10.

Edna NEVER disappoints! The food is so amazing, best brunch in my opinion. I ordered the scones to go and we ended up fighting over them at home, so moist and simply DELICIOUS! The service is wonderful, just an all round great experience.

We were 2 couples - started with the Burrata and tomato app (which is always terrific), another had tuna which he loved. Ladies had scallops and we had the ribeye. Service was excellent, very knowledgeable and attentive to our needs. Unfortunately, wife and I were facing the wall, which isn't the greatest option. Quite loud. Edna is our fav restaurant in HRM.
