About Ardent

Their Lent special Friday fish fry, featuring perfectly crisp French fries, creamy tartar sauce, and expertly breaded and fried fish fillets, has received high praise from diners. The restaurant's focus on quality and attention to detail is clear in every dish, from the unique cocktails to the stand-out burger with nutritionally-yeasted onions, boursin, and pickles. The pre-fixed menu is often described as surpassing even the most elite dining experiences, with highlights such as the curry carrot cake and uni onion soup. Customers often leave impressed and look forward to their next visit, especially for special occasions like birthdays. Many also appreciate the inviting atmosphere of the Ardent Lounge, which has become a favorite spot for food, friendly and knowledgeable service, and memorable experiences. The menu offers a variety of surprises, including unique presentations like oysters in a tin and fun options such as Sake in a can. Despite some minor issues with the ambiance, the overall experience — especially the food and service — continues to earn high praise.
