After waiting at least 30 minutes for a table at 5pm let me add, we waited another 20 to get waited on. Now i know that Niche is "always busy" but it was 5PM! The waitress assured us our food would be out in 30 minutes. Let's just say it took 1 hour and 15.. Oh and best part, I ordered the Greek salad which was a whopping $12.95 and was literally half a head of romaine lettuce and 3 olives. I don't think I've ever been so disappointed in a restaurant that is supposed to be one of the better one in Halifax... Let's just say, I won't be going back.

We did regret sitting in the slow moving area.My hubby actually flagged one of the other servers down to ask for a refill on his drink.The food was okay, nothing great.When it came time to pay, the bill arrived promptly and the server actually hovered around to see what tip amount she would get. Sorry, but I do tip well for great service only.....With all the other places to eat and drink in Halifax I would think people relying on tips would make an extra effort.
