1. Da Maurizio Dining Room
My favourite spot in Halifax, so so good!
I had noticed on Twitter that DaMaurizio had been tweeting about a new menu coming out on the 26th. After a few exchanges and when I realized pumpkin ravioli was on the menu, I made a reservation for my…More »

My favourite high-end restaurant in Halifax. Because it's in the brewery market it can be slightly… Read more »
2. Gio Restaurant
I celebrated my mother's birthday recently at Gio, and the experience was as lovely as it has been for lunch. I liked that while there was music playing, it was at a low enough level that I could still clearly hear what my dining companions had to…More »

I enjoy Nectar Social House a lot, and it's nice to have a fancier option on the Darkside. In the summer I love their patio, perfect on a sunny day. I have always had great service at Nectar. I've had the opportunity to have brunch, lunch, dinner, as…More »
6. Five Fishermen Restaurant
.I recently dined at the Five Fisherman for the first time this past week. My first impression was that the restaurant was beautiful, lots of rich dark colours, fireplaces etc. We were four at a table, which was tiny. Between the water glasses,…More »
7. Fid Resto
Under the Radar
So what I love about Fid is that during Open City, when demand was higher than expected and they sold out of sandwiches, they adapted, switched it up and started offering their awesome Pad Thai. What I love even more about them is that…More »

8. Stories Fine Dining
I can't believe it's taken me so long to visit this restaurant. Well actually it's somewhat above my budget for a typical night out, so that probably played a role. It's Dine Out month, which means that there was a fixed price menu. The great thing…More »
