Fresh on the Fly Reviews
After a busy day of traveling, it felt incredible to have a wonderful place to have a delicious meal and retire to our rooms. Highly recommend the hotel as well as the restaurant!
We made the reservation here at the last minute not realizing the restaurant is in the Lord Nelson Hotel. We were impressed as soon as we got there. We were greeted warmly and seated promptly. Our server, Emma was great. My wife had the Cornish hen and it was delicious. I had the Digby scallops and they were delicious as well. The place has a great vibe of elegance. Casual dress is perfectly fine (we wore jeans). I highly recommend The Arms!
Always a wonderful experience. We've been coming here since 2008. It's our favorite pub in Halifax. The food is delicious, but the staff are the real standout here. The employees are exceptional

Fresh on the Fly is a restaurant that provides a varied dining experience. The service is generally friendly and accommodating, with the host and servers being attentive and checking back to ensure everything is fine. The venue is described as great, offering a pleasant atmosphere. Reviews indicate mixed feelings about the food quality. The Caesar salad was praised as a wonderful surprise, while some dishes like the fish and chips were considered dry and unimpressive. However, the sea bass, pork chops, fried chicken sandwich, and hodge podge with perfectly cooked scallops received high marks. The ravioli, burgers, and an unspecified fish dish were also described as good. Desserts like mango sorbet, homemade ice cream, and flourless torte with raspberry sorbet were noted for their generous portions and satisfaction. Overall, while Fresh on the Fly is a decent option, diners should be selective with their menu choices. Accessibility may be an issue, as the washrooms are located up three flights of stairs.
