The Five Fishermen Reviews
The 5 Fishermen restaurant was amazing! The food, the atmosphere and the staff were all great. The manager even went to every table to check on the customers…to me, that is over and above service. We had the prime rib that was melt in your mouth fantastic. I know it will definitely be on our list of places to eat when we return to Halifax.
Fresh, flavorful, and unforgettable🥰
Beautiful restaurant in an excellent location. The staff and very nice and happy to have any answers that you may have. It is a fancier restaurant (maybe dress up a bit) but isn’t pretentious. Our food came quickly, the drinks were very good (paid for 2 because it was so good) and we would definitely come back. Great place for a birthday, anniversary or special celebration.
