great meal and great service today. My son had a yummy grilled cheese
Grabbed dinner here on a Tuesday with a couple friends and the duck breast special absolutely stole the show. The dining room had this warm, low-key buzz that made it easy to talk without shouting over the next table. Our server walked us through the wine list without any pretension and kept checking in at just the right moments. Street parking near Bedford Square was surprisingly easy around 7pm, which was a nice bonus after a meal that good.
Great little diner. Great diner food and fast friendly service.

Esquire Restaurant is a popular dining spot known for its delicious food and cozy atmosphere. Visitors often praise the seafood chowder, calling it the best in the greater Halifax area. The menu includes a variety of options, with the lobster rolls being highly recommended. The breakfast offerings, such as Eggs Benedict, are skillfully prepared and taste great, although some reviews mention dried chives on top and less satisfactory breakfast sausages and potatoes. The coffee is good and refilled regularly, ensuring a pleasant dining experience. The restaurant is also family-friendly, welcoming children and making it suitable for casual dinners with a spouse or nights out with friends. Many guests appreciate the friendly and attentive service from the staff, who are knowledgeable about the menu and specials. The location is nice, though parking can be challenging during busy hours. The dining area shows some signs of wear, with chairs and tables in rough shape, but overall cleanliness is maintained. Visitors often remark that the food and atmosphere make it a worthwhile stop for those exploring the area. The weekly specials and the quality of food, especially the fish and chips or turkey dinner, keep customers coming back.
