As an almost life-long Halifax native, I wish I had known about this place sooner! The interior is cozy and unpretentious. It's all about the food here - no extra song and dance necessary. Our waitress was very attentive and cheerful, and quick to…More »
Guys, it's not a joke. Stop resisting the siren song of the peanut butter burger and just give in to its ooey gooey goodness. And while you're at it, shovel in a hand-full (or 5) of Darrell's fries. Your waistline might regret it, but the rest of you…More »

When it comes to quality of food and quality of service, Morris East always goes above and beyond the call of duty. We showed up at 6:30 on a Friday night to a full house and were told the wait would be about 15 minutes. 15 minutes turned in to 20…More »

I walk on Lower Water Street on a regular basis, yet somehow had never stopped in to take a look around the Choco Cafe until last night. Well... I'm glad that oversight has been resolved, because Choco Cafe is a wonderful little spot. True to its…More »
