My Girlfriend and I had the lobster dinner. The lobster was over cooked and very chewy and hard.

Recommend the lobster routine. The patio was a fun place to be a part of the boardwalk.

We had a great time at Waterfront Warehouse on the Halifax waterfront during our Maritimes trip. The place has a fun and casual vibe, perfect for hanging out and sharing food with friends or family. We ordered the watermelon salad, which was super refreshing and light. The lobster fries were rich and full of flavour, and the lobster rolls were fresh and tasty. The scallops were the star of the meal—cooked perfectly, tender, and full of flavour. We also tried the fried calamari, which was crispy and not greasy at all.
Everything came in generous portions, which made it great for sharing. The service was friendly and the food came out pretty quickly. Sitting by the water added to the experience, and it was just a really enjoyable meal overall.
If you’re visiting Halifax and want good seafood in a relaxed spot, this is a solid choice. I’d definitely come back.

Recently dined here with our large group, neat atmosphere with both indoor, outdoor dining just off the waterfront boardwalk. The meals were good and they were able to accommodate dietary restrictions with meal adjustment options.

Don't waste your money here. Food was not up to the hype people are saying. We went here at 7 for dinner after some sightseeing. They sat us right away even though we were 30 mins early for our reservation but then it was downhill. We didn't get our drinks for a while after that then our food was a good 30 mins after our app came. There was no reason for this as the place was empty and had plenty of servers. When the food did come well it wasn't any better. My lobster roll was a brioche bun from the store not even toasted. The filling was ok. My son got the lobster poutine which looked like soup they put so much sauce. We had 2 lobster meals at the table for which they didn't bring bibs, bucket utensils until we said something. Then the server didn't check on us once. Just came to the table at the end to comment that the lobsters had been conquered. My other son got a kids meal we never got a drink which came with it. I then asked for the brownie that came with it and they gave us 2 mini pieces (from a store again) wrapped in paper bags - like get out? We didn't enjoy our meals nor the service. Definitely won't be back!

Enjoyed lunch with a group of seniors on Monday. Was cool on the waterfront so we wanted to eat somewhere indoors. We all had either the lobster roll with kettle chips or the watermelon salad. Everyone loved everything, lots of lobster on the lobster roll and the salad was a huge serving at a great price point. We had a great chat with our waitress who shared the same name as one of the ladies!
AVOID THIS TOURIST TRAP. The only reason I'm giving 2 stars is because the servers were honest and acknowledged the food is overpriced and mostly junk from a food services company (i.e. Sysco or Gordon Food Services).
Green coleslaw no different than what you could buy at Sobeys. Commercial tartar sauce. Pre-frozen fries. Chowder like wallpaper paste - it had a skin on it. Industrial salad dressing you could get at any grocery store. Fish and chips with batter that tastes like funnel cake from Canada's Wonderland and is greasy as heck because the frying oil was not hot enough. Shrimp no better than what you can buy from a Costco freezer and jarred cocktail sauce. Rubber calamari. Unless it came raw (and therefore way overpriced) the seafood is largely pre-frozen junk. I could go on.... basically this place isn't much better than any other franchise commercial restaurant and is not worth the premium price.
The servers know they are serving reheated, pre-frozen, and/or pre-packaged food from the same food suppliers that serve university and high school students in low-cost cafeterias. When asked, they said even the lobster rolls were made with scraps and supplemented with frozen meat. That is why the lobster roll meat is mostly shredded with few chunks for show.
You will be better off by enjoying the seaside boardwalk and then walking up a few blocks to any other restaurant in downtown Halifax. I mean it - any other restaurant. Save your money and your calories.

We had such a great night out here during our trip in Halifax! Katherine was our server, who was absolutely incredible and super attentive. It was the best service we had at any restaurant we visited during the week of our trip by far. MVP!

I expected better. Frozen French fires. Haddock did not taste fresh. Overall disappointing

Heather was a fantastic server. Fully engaged... and researched some food inquiries with detail. The lobster roll was delicious. And we all had a lovely experience. The only issue was the kettle chips seemed burnt. Tho I am unsure if that is the way they are supposed to be.

The experience was amazing, the waitresses so nice and patient. Would definitely go again!
