The Garneau is an Edmonton relic which remains active and keeps up the class of the south side, a wee bit. Most of the time when you walk by the theatre you'd see movies playing that aren't big blockbuster tickets and are, invariably, indie movies,…More »
I've become a regular at this Transcend over the last six months or so, so much so that a couple of the staff know that my favorite drink is the Flat White. Of course, my morning cup still remains the clover coffee and I always spend a couple of…More »
Transcend has a very specific goal - serve a masterful cup of coffee. The prices are about a dollar… Read more »
The coffee appears to be quite the original Italian style espresso. I really like this place. Have been here a few times now, since I work on the U of A campus.
They offer a variety of espresso based coffee drinks. Apart from the Capp, you could…More »

The Sugar Bowl is a "mature" campus haunt, if you know what I mean. While almost every university student has been here, it's a bit of a classed up place to come to (and on a side, I certainly don't consider Earl's to be a "mature" campus haunt).

I'm a fan! Yes, I am! Da Capo makes some really, really good Italian style pizzas. I haven't been to Italy, but wait - there are many Europeans who work at my department and they'd all give their nod for Da Capo.
A fairly good variety of pizzas…More »
Yummmmm ... as I write this review I'm imagining the "Sgt. Pepper Burger" sizzling with spice as I take a juicy bite of bread, meat, cheese, peppers and tangy sauce while allowing the flood gates to open. By my side is my faithful companion of cole…More »
The sublime taste of truly fresh salmon sashimi dipped in soy sauce and wasabi is a great experience that I yearn for on a daily basis. At kyoto, I can say this once more .. the sashimi is decent. It's certainly not the best I've had .. but it's so…More »
Kabuki is a recently opened sushi place near the Garneau Theatre. It's proximity to the UofA campus makes it an ideal destination for people to come here for a lunch or dinner-after-theatre type experience.
Although I like the ambience and the menu,…More »
The Smile Zone provides state-of-the-art dental services with a large space, spanning perhaps 8 dental "workstations". The staff are friends and the dental hygienists are knowledgeable and easily approachable.
They are probably a great place to get…More »
I went here for dinner the other day and was surprised by how crowded it was. That's a great thing, since there are a lot of well established food joints around there (Sugar Bowl, Remedy, de Capo etc.). We got a table pretty soon since they have a…More »
I like that Phóbulous is a nice change for the Garneau area. If I'm not mistaken, it's the only phó place in the university area which makes it a convenient location for university goers and others who live/work near Garneau. On all the occasions…More »
While I enjoy basking in the hippiness of soft music, mismatched furniture, dirty toilets, dreadlocks and yoga mats, I'm definitely underwhelmed by Remedy. I've not been a very active Remedier - having probably been there about 6 times over the last…More »
I like Remedy. Haven't tried too much of the food, but have had the wraps and am waiting to still… Read more »
Poutine, poutine, poutine! I enjoyed gorging down my bowl of poutine from La Poutine the other night but was left expecting a little better, perhaps because of all the hype. It was deliciously filled with fries, peas, mushrooms, squeakilicous…More »
The Arbour is an excellent tea room located at the Rutherford House. With a decent sized menu, including a list of affordable high tea options, the Arbour is a great option for a relaxing high tea on a weekend afternoon.
The staff seem to really…More »
BAJ is a different kind of sandwich shop. They serve a variety of ethnically (not ethically) oriented sandwiches like butter chicken or szechuan chicken sub among other more tradition subs. I've been here a few times and have had mixed feelings…More »
I remember driving by Noorish on their grand opening night and was amazed to see so many people waiting to get in. I didn't really go in that night, but definitely had to pay them a visit soon after. Given that Noorish is exactly 3 blocks from my…More »
There's no point pretending that this isn't the best thing to happen to the Garneau neighborhood in a long time. Three Boars is so well situated, with their patio opening to the gritty sounds of 109th street traffic and their entire establishment…More »
