The Press Gang Restaurant and Oyster Bar offers an exceptional dining experience in a historic setting. With dishes like beef tenderloin, lamb, lobster, and halibut cooked to perfection, guests can also enjoy delightful desserts such as cheesecake and crème brûlée. The service is attentive yet unobtrusive, contributing to a welcoming atmosphere that creates lasting memories. The restaurant features the historic building's stone and aged wood design, with a fabulous interior that feels warm and cozy. Guests are seated in charming nooks, some made from wood salvaged from old ships. The restaurant is especially known for its fresh local oysters, which are impeccably served with cocktail sauce, mignonette, and horseradish, making it a must-try for seafood lovers. Although the wine list is short, it offers a good selection. Guests have praised the restaurant highly, with many calling it "the best restaurant in Halifax" and others highlighting the amazing service and perfect food. Reservations are recommended for this exceptional dining spot, particularly for special occasions.
