Restaurants in Yellowknife

“I recently had the pleasure of dining at a hidden gem in Yellowknife, located on the third floor of the Nova Inn. This restaurant offers a refreshing take on Chinese cuisine, with a setting and vibe that stand out from the usual. The atmosphere is clean and quiet, making it an ideal spot for a peaceful meal.

The menu is impressively extensive, featuring everything from dumplings and noodles to rice, poultry, and fish dishes. I was impressed by the variety and quality of the offerings. The service was efficient and friendly, adding to the overall positive experience.

For those with a sweet tooth, they also offer a selection of bubble tea and cakes, which was a pleasant surprise. Given that there aren’t many Chinese dining options in Yellowknife, this spot definitely earns a thumbs up for both its food and ambiance.”

“Love the food and the atmosphere!”

“Best coffee shop in town for sure.”

“first class family ‘greasy spoon’ with excellent food, portions & prices. old mining town atmosphere that’s been around since the 1930s - nothing fancy but the food.”

“We were craving some Asian food and a Japanese restaurant in Yellowknife was appealing. We arrived about 11:45AM on a Monday and ordered and paid at the counter. The staff are friendly and you could “see” their smiles under their masks. We ordered udon soup and the Yellowknife Sushi. The soup had a nice chicken broth with the udon noodles, a tempura shrimp and finely sliced green onion. It was homely and satisfying. The sushi had about four different slices of rolls, about ten pieces all fresh and satisfying as well. It was surprising to us how the restaurant filled up so quickly from noon on. I can see why. Next time in Yellowknife I will be going back there again. It was a good lunch.”

“Best coffee shop in town for sure.”

“We stopped in at the McDonalds in Ingersoll Ontario. What stood out is the positive attitudes of the young staff behind the counter. I could tell by the conversations that they were high school students. What impressed me was the good nature joking and camaraderie that I witnessed while waiting for my order. Such a refreshing experience to see good natured young people doing a great job and having fun at the same time. I'll be stopping in again for sure.”

“Lost my wallet here while the hottest gal was dancing, Mar 19. Didn't even mention it to the staff , and they were helped me look for it! Great staff and dancers. A Yellowknife gem.”

“Pretty much exactly what I was looking for. Fries are not hand cut (today) as what shows on the pics. Fish was really good! Pints are expensive but maybe that's normal up here.”

“Korea House is always my go-to restaurant for lunch or dinner in Yellowknife! Delicious cuisine, large portions, and super friendly staff who work hard to satisfy you.”

“A lovely little spot where German, Irish, and Greek cuisines meet! Ordering is by a QR code but otherwise a very homey feel, the mismatched chinaware made me feel like I was in my Gram's kitchen again. The food was excellent. If you're looking for a down to earth, non-chain or corporate diner Elke's is a great choice!”

“What a fantastic meal! After winning a gift certificate, I decided to get a group of friends together for a Jamaican night to enjoy the food! Everyone raved about the chicken dishes and the oxtail! Thanks so much for a great Easter Monday meal! 10/10 would recommend!”

“A really great place to hunker down and get to the bottom of a whiskey glass. The atmosphere is casual, friendly and comfortable. The music is good and the the conversations lively.”

“I love me some coffee but gosh darn if I wasn’t shivering in my Timbers(get it like Tim’s) it’s just so gosh darn cold outside it drives me crazy anyways hope everyone who reads this have y’all a jolly day”

“very yummy and tasty food”

“Bruno’s is great. It’s definitely a hole in the wall… but that’s what makes it so great. Is the food good ? I mean… it hasn’t made me sick.
Is it clean ? I mean it’s a old building so you can find flaws if your looking, but no it’s not dirty it’s not messy
The parking though … no good.
All in all I like it.
Plus where else in Yellowknife can you get

It’s a good place.”

“Best coffee shop in town for sure.”

“Great thing about this place is that the food is almost always cooked to order - except in really busy times. Only downside is that wraps are no longer available”

“Staff are nice, friendly and welcoming. The food is tasty and the quantity is big enough for sharing. The location is good and easy to find. The price is reasonable.”

“Decent burger late in the day. I did not receive what I ordered and there seemed to be an understanding among staff that the guy who took orders wasn’t especially good at caring about or performing his job. Lots of room inside even though it was busy.

Parking: Shares a large lot with other businesses”

“KFC sets the gold standard when it comes to customer service. From the moment I walked in, I was greeted with warm smiles and efficient service. The team at KFC goes above and beyond to ensure every customer leaves happy and content.”
