Places NOT to eat in Edmonton
See All Lists
1. The Moose Factory
came here for a family function. the staff were polite and decent (if not a little thick in the head). food was way over priced for what was being served. sub-par ingredients in everything, including a lot of pre-made stuff (salad dressing and…More »
2. Chin Kee Restaurant
Fast service. Food was just okay and definitely not the best in the city. I would like to try some of the items off the Cantonese menu so I guess I'll have to bring a translator next time.
3. Earls
Came here for a family dinner after we arrived at the other West End location which was closed for renovations. I was not particularly excited to be eating at Earls in the first place but the one in the mall is legendarily crappy.
So we arrive and…More »
4. Funky Pickle Pizza Company
Some of their pizza is gross, some of it is confusing, but all of it is overrated. Proportion of ingredients is often way out of wack: one veggie pie i had, in lieu of sauce had a layer of herbs a cm thick - it was like eating a pizza someone had…More »
5. Mongolie Grill
staff were extremely pleasant. green onion cakes were good though the portions were quite small. the buffet of veg is hit and miss in terms of quality (many items were obviously from a can) meat is frozen before the weigh in which feels like a rip…More »
6. Chianti Cafe & Restaurant
What an awful restaurant. The staff were slow and unhelpful. The pasta noodles were thick and chewy while the sauce was way too peppery for Italian food.
7. Cactus Club Cafe
way over hyped. were unable to accomodate a table of six in the restaurant. food was over priced for the quality and quantity (small portions, pretentious). too many staff not doing anything (5 or 6 managers in a small restaurant). one waitress had…More »
8. Daawat
Food was not up to par. Sauces were runny, not thick and rich like a curry should be. Meat was only so-so, clearly not as well marinated as other indian restaurants do it. Staff were awful; there were 3 people (2 of which were at our table) eating…More »
9. Olive Garden
Is a caricature of Italian food, which isn't to say the food is awful, but it is not authentic (which they try SO hard to be). Is a chain restaurant with prefab sauces and items throughout the menu. Servings are plentiful and generous but the…More »
10. Lazia
Menu has some questionable choices. Chef clearly failed to understand the basics of a Caprese salad (an extremely simple dish). Decor is sort of cool; location, while central, is lame (in a mall). Better times had in the lounge eating hot wings…More »
11. Ruth's Chris Steak House
Over priced. One can find steak just as good or better at a dozen other restaurants in town that are a) locally owned b) less pretentious c) don't have a stupid name.
I do not understand why people go nuts over this restaurant. It is a…More »
12. Columbus Pizza & Donair
Filthy. Wretched staff. In a rough neighborhood. Might be a front for drug dealers. Delivery takes hours and usually has 2 or 3 mistakes per order. Checked City of Edmonton food safety report on the place and it was gnarly. Really regret ever…More »
13. Tim Hortons
Edmonton, AB T6G 1K5

Delis,
Sandwiches,
Doughnuts,
Coffee & Tea
If you think good coffee means its full of sugar, milk and 'flavor shots' then this is the place for you. If you order black you are in for a disaster as the brew is watered down and funky without the requisite double-double. Donuts are awful, as…More »
14. Milestones
A chain restaurant owned by the same company that runs Harveys and Swiss Chalet. I started out liking this place because the menu was kind of unique for a restaurant of its kind. Trys to be trendy and upscale, which is kind of ironic when it is…More »
15. Beez Healthy Fast Food
Typifies problems with a lot of "healthy food" in that a lot of what is served here is bland, textureless and cool (to the touch). An excellent concept executed poorly with mediocre food. Smoothy fiends will love it but someone craving a decent…More »
16. Julio's Barrio Mexican Restaurant
Only good thing about this place is the high priced bull dogs. Food is gross. Atmosphere is obnoxious.
