Da Capo is a cute, upscale little cafe located in the Garneau area. It's a great place for a date, a pizza with friends, or a summer gelato.
Speaking of which -- pistachio gelato? Be still, my heart! I think I found a new favourite food in Edmonton!

I have a minor pesto hangover this morning from my amazing pasta meal last night. Served with red pepper and zucchini, the creamy green sauce was drizzled on top of a near-perfect meal. (Near-perfect because it was too salty for my taste buds.)

This is my new all-time favourite coffee shop ever. For any purpose. In fact, scratch that first sentence. This is my new all-time favourite place ever. Period.
As Stefon would say, this place has everything. Fresh flowers, home decor, hot coffee,…More »

What an outstanding evening at The Bothy! Both our host and server were friendly, chatty and knowledgeable about the menu. The special that evening, the short ribs, sounded amazing. I hope it come back as a special so I get a chance to try it!

This is by far my favourite park in Edmonton. It's got everything you could ask for in a park, especially in this city.
Summer: paddle boats, nice trails, plus Shakespeare in the Park! Killer geese aside, this a great place for a date, a family day…More »
It was only after our favourite breakfast places and the new iHOP informed us of their hour-ish wait times that we opted for lunch instead of brunch, and Kelsey's was closest.
Maybe because it was just barely 12:01 PM is the reason it was so quiet?…More »
I'm putting on my sad face for the bad reviews at this place right now. This is actually one of my favourite Earl's locations in the city.
I popped in here for lunch with my mama the other day and I was very impressed with the service. We got a seat…More »
I stopped by Remedy Cafe for a late-night snack and coffee with a friend. The crowd is hip and young - a lot of university students finishing papers (free wi-fi!) and chatting philosophy. It's a great place to do some people watching.
I tried a vegan…More »
I can't say enough good things about the Art Gallery of Alberta. I took the tour on the architecture of the building, and all I could say was, "Wow!" Learned a ton about the unique design and the sustainable elements of the new building.
The exhibits…More »
Plenty of bike parking and conveniently located just a block from the University of Alberta. The lattes here are priced higher-than-average ($5!), but they're worth it!
Make sure to try the pizza for a yummy lunch (I recommend the spinach and feta),…More »
I like visiting the Twisted Fork for breakfast because so few people know that they have a great brunch menu. Although lighting is low in this restaurant/bar, big storefront windows let the light in during breakfast hours.
Like most of the fare here,…More »
One of the cool, historic parts of the area to remain on Whyte Ave to this day, so I'm automatically in love.
Even with some renovations, this theatre has retained its old-timey feel, from the grand marquee above the entrance to the ornate iron above…More »
I walk by Death By Chocolate all the time. Whenever I park on Calgary Trail and walk to Block 1912 (which is often), I pass Death By Chocolate and fondly remember that one time I ate really good cheesecake here for a friend's birthday.
I was making my…More »
I've been lucky to catch a lot of great theatre here. Improv on Friday and Saturday evenings, plus other plays along the way.
Improv here is a must-see. I love taking friends from out of town to the Varscona to catch the great local performers here.…More »
One thing I truly can't believe is how friggin' long it took me to finally try the newest location of Edmonton. Yes, a week is a long time in Brittany Land to go without trying a new coffee place.
This new Transcend takes thing to a whole 'nother…More »
I can't say I've ever had a less-than-stellar night out at the Citadel. They host a great range of performances, from The Wizard of Oz (great, but Toto kept running offstage!), to Studies in Motion (a very well-done, but extraordinarily nude…More »
This was the spot I chose for my birthday dinner last year. I follow the theory that adding garlic makes any dish better, so this restaurant seemed like a natural fit for our tastes.
Our server was friendly, albeit somewhat forgetful. Although he…More »
Mostly Water Theatre performed a great one-part-comedy-one-part-live- music SNL type of show at the Roxy Theatre last night.
It's bigger than some other theatres in town, like Catalyst and the Varscona, and it's just off 124th street, which is a great…More »
It's quite funny that most of these reviews being with "I like Joey's." There's not that much to dislike about Joey's. It's a classy place with a cool bar and the drink menu contains a cute, sarcastic handbook on how to use the menu itself to pick up…More »
Really? I haven't written a review for Tokyo Noodle Shop yet? That's so odd to come, considering I freaking love it here.
This is definitely one of my go-to spots for an easy dinner on Whyte Avenue. A lot of the dishes are very western-ized, too, so…More »
The nanaimo bar was the bizzomb. I should probably try the pie, since that is what they're famous for, but I don't know if I'll be able to come back here and not order the nanaimo bar. Like, dang.
I just stopped in here with some time to kill on my…More »
Nomiya was alright. Its menu is pretty different from any other Japanese restaurant that I've been to. Bento boxes? No. Tapas? Well, I guess so. They call it tapas, but isn't that Spanish? Anyway, they serve a vareity of rolls, ramen, and Japanese…More »
Even as the not-greatest fan of pho, I still really like Phobulous. The location is just right and I love the big window along the front wall with the bar-style seating. It's the best spot to sit if you're just stopping in for a lunch by yourself.

The High Level Bridge Streetcar isn't necessarily a hidden gem among the city - I think a lot of people know about it, but not a lot of people have taken it.
I can only say good - nay, great things about the HLBS. The trains themselves are super cool…More »
Joey's bills itself as a mediterranean grill, and although its menu is more American style, the food, drinks and atmosphere all rate well in my books.
It was Saturday night date night and I had a $25 gift card to Joey's, so we checked out their…More »
Maybe I'm just feeling nostalgic, but I can't give anything less than five stars to Room At The Top.
Before its renovation, it was a typical campus pub with a little somethin' something' extra - an amazing nearly-360-degrees view of the city. Now…More »
Now wait here just one second. I haven't written a review of Tony's yet?
This is my family's favourite place for pizza night out. We usually order a couple of large "Famous House Specials" to split among the table. The pizza here is super tasty, and…More »
I think Lit is just what Edmonton has been missing. As another 104th Street biz review mentions, these cool spots along this strip make you feel like Edmonton is getting cooler. Lit is no exception.
Grab a seat at one of the cozy booths or along the…More »
I am Jeffrey's newest and biggest fan. I love cafes. I love wine bars. Jeffrey's is both!
It's quieter during the day, with plenty of tables and a few couches perfect for getting work done or catching up with friends. They offer some light lunch items…More »
I've found my new favourite coffee shop in the city, I think. Just maybe.
Swung by last weekend for a morning date with Sarah J. Now, after reading this review, you can't say I didn't warn you when I tell you that it might be awfully tricky to find a…More »
Oh, Edmonton. You may have your faults, but I truly do love you so very much, and a big reason why is your amazing river valley.
Whether in spring, summer, fall or winter, it's gorgeous. Either blooming flowers, a lush green forest, a sea of orange…More »
I had plans for a tea date with my bestie when we both realized we were starving. What were we thinking, anyway, getting tea at noon on a Sunday? Clearly what we wanted was pizza. So pizza we had!
Famoso wasn't that busy, surprisingly. Well, busy but…More »
In a word, disappointed. I attended a Christmas party at the Sutton Place last night; we were in the Vintage Room.
Definite pros: the room was quite nice, the acoustics were good, I liked the lighting, and....y'know, I just can't think of a fourth.

On Saturday night, Michael J and I bought our tickets for Sherlock Holmes 2. That was at around 6:10 and the movie started at 7. No time to head out of City Centre Mall for dinner but we didn't have to walk far to Elephant and Castle, where a quick…More »
I was very impressed with Cabana! My sister-in-law got married on Friday afternoon and we came to Cabana for the reception dinner. (It was a small wedding - about 20 people total.) The bride and groom had rented Cabana's private room for the…More »
As someone who considers herself a bit of a burger aficionado, I was stoked yet skeptical of Delux. I came here on a date with a dude quite some time ago for a trendy dinner out. The dude didn't stick around, but my love of Delux definitely has.

Italian food is my all-time favourite. Like, in a discussion the other day with some yelpers about what our top 5 favourite cuisines are, Italian and Indian were the only two that didn't require serious thought. Immediate reaction = PASTA AND…More »
We had tickets to a movie at just-one-parking-lot-over South Edmonton Cineplex Theatre for 10:45 but the whole date night was kind of a spur of the moment sort of thing, so at around 9 PM, we had some time to kill.
Most stores here are closed before 9…More »
Very high hopes heading into Golden Rice Bowl. It was a very chilly night in Edmonton and I was tired, cold, hungry, etc. A high-rated Chinese restaurant? Yep, that sounded just about perfect.
Michael J and I ordered the dinner for two. It's usually…More »
After a disappointing round of dim sum, we needed something to satisfy our sweet tooth and make up for a lost meal opportunity. Just next door sits the homely Hong Kong Bakery, hidden in a corner of a strip mall along busy Gateway Boulevard.
