Everybody was happy. My children said it was the best French toast and eggs they had ever eaten. And my duck egg Benny was really the best eggs Benny I've ever eaten. The service was wonderful. And I love the ambience. This place is a jewel. I hope it stays here for a while.

Our server was very informative of the menu, and even made sure to ask the kitchen to create a dairy free dessert for one of us that was dairy intolerant even though we didn’t ask, he just overheard us discussing the dessert menu and that it was unfortunate none of the options were dairy free! Will definitely go back, I’m very interested in trying the 5 course chefs menu with the wine pairings.

Best fish cakes I've had in a restaurant, prepared by a chef who is incredibly qualified. The location is a little odd, but definitely worth visiting for a fine dining experience (but not necessarily if you want a LOT of food)

The fish cakes and pumpkin croquettes were especially delicious, and the chicken burger had a flavorful Asian twist. My girlfriend really enjoyed the falafel burger as a great vegetarian option. This restaurant is truly unique and unlike anything else in Halifax. The prices were reasonable and the service was excellent. We will definitely be making this restaurant a must-visit whenever we are in town visiting family.

The location is handy, lots of parking and the decor is simple and really nice. The staff was amazing, only topped by the dishes we ordered. We started with the ponzu fried chicken and dynamite cauliflower which were both delicious (even the friend who doesn't love cauliflower was living the cauliflower). We then moved to mains where we ordered the mushroom sea truffle risotto, the king oyster mushroom barley, and the filet mignon steak frites. Not only was the food delicious, everything came out so artfully prepared with so much thought put into everything placed on each plate. Even though we were stuffed, we ordered two desserts to share the chocolate ganache and the eggnog bread pudding with homemade ice cream. What an incredible dining experience! We have already decided that we are heading back again in a couple of weeks for a birthday celebration! This is an amazing restaurant find in Halifax!

I’m happy that we finally have such a restaurant in Halifax. Definitely recommend going there. The Chef came to our table and asked us how we liked our dishes. Ps. Prices are super reasonable for a bottle of wine as well.

My children raved about the delicious French toast and eggs, while my duck eggs Benedict was the best I've ever had. The service was excellent and I enjoyed the cozy atmosphere of the restaurant. This place is truly a hidden gem and I hope it remains open for a long time.
