What Carol R doesn't like about Bluenose II Restaurant:
Lobster roll had lotsa lettuce and-tiny amount of chopped up lobster. Whole lobster was old as evidenced by thick black tarry slimy goo when the tail was opened. Clam chowder was thick gelatinous and tasteless. I have no idea why they have been in business so long. Praying on tourists who don’t know any better. Shame!!!! View all feedback. What Manu likes about Bluenose II Restaurant:
The food and service lived upto the legacy of bluenose 2 restaurant... Do try the liver grill and lobster roll... Must-go if you are roaming in downtown Halifax...Kid-friendliness: Kids hi-chair was available and a crayons kit was given to keep them engaged : kids menu available too....Parking: Free street parking available around on weekends...

How can you not like a friendly Greek restaurant that has an amazing lobster deal? The lobsters are 1 1/4 lb or larger, served with clarified butter,

The Bluenose II Restaurant in Halifax offers a mix of positive and negative experiences. While some guests were disappointed by the quality of their lobster dishes, chowder, and other menu items, others praised the friendly service and delicious food. The restaurant seems to be popular among locals and tourists alike, offering a cozy, no-frills dining experience with affordable prices. Some highlights included the lobster dinner, fish and chips, seafood chowder, and breakfast options. Overall, it seems that the Bluenose II Restaurant is worth a visit for those looking for a casual and satisfying meal in downtown Halifax.
