Whether you are heading out for a casual dinner or late-night drinks, this location of Original Joe's consistently serves yummy food for a reasonable price, without music blasting right in your ear at full volume. I also love love LOVE that the…More »
I am a huge fan of Mandarin Restaurant! A quiet, family-owned place (adorable toddlers and all) that has a menu bursting at the seams with flavourful Chinese fare.
Two friends and I picked the "Dinner for Three" option - three full entrees of our…More »

Just visited Sugarbowl for a dinner/dessert night out with friends, and I could NOT believe we were able to get a table on a Saturday night. Whether for breakfast, dinner, lunch, or late night drinks, a table at the Sugarbowl is hard to come by…More »
I had pretty low expectations for Rodeo Burger going in, thinking it was just another fast-food burger joint. Dang, was I wrong! For a moderate price you can get a ton of food - a big burger, and don't skip on the fries, either. They are very yummy.

I would say that The Greenhouse is a secret indulgence for me, but with a menu of healthy healthy treats, it's not much very indulgent, and I don't keep it particularly secret!
My favourite salad here is the Sol Caesar. It has a light but creamy…More »

Wooden floors and old Canadian sports memorabilia on the walls makes this a great location to watch the game with some friends with a few pints.
Visited this downtown location of one of Edmonton's favourites for wings and a beer after work. Wing…More »
If you're looking for a good pub with a full menu and beer that is flowing, Hudsons on Campus is a safe bet. With two levels (main floor and basement), there is plenty of seating, although the place really fills up on game nights.
The food here is…More »
This was one of the first places I ever (reluctantly) tried sushi. (I grew up with a brother allergic to seafood, OK?) Even before I ever went down the raw fish route, I still liked Kyoto because of their great bento selections. 'Fraid of the fish? I…More »
Avenue Pizza can be pretty hit or miss. A great place for after-work pizza and drinks, watching the game, or late-night partying. The pizza here is hot, if a bit slow to arrive to the table, but always on-taste.
It is also a good place for the pizza…More »
I enjoyed my first foray into the Urban Diner experience. Sunny yellow walls? Check. Super happy staff? Check! It was a long wait for the late lunch, and the disorganization of the place didn't help much, but I think that can be chalked up to the…More »
So it was really, really cold yesterday. Luckily, I had appointments all in one area (124th street-ish) and Steeps was the perfect place for kill some time in between dates.
The location is awesome. It's near all kinds of restaurants, shops, and…More »
I was intrigued to try Doan's after the reviews here on the site. The restaurant was bigger than expected, and actually much busier than I expected. We went in at around 2 PM on a Monday and there must have been a half dozen other tables ordering as…More »
This is the perfect place for a little student studying or some light reading during the daytime, and a wonderful spot for some live music in the evening.
A great space with a wall of teas to choose from (plus specialties like matcha and chai lattes),…More »
So I still hold high opinion of OTR as a place for watching the game or enjoying a pint with a friend or several. Spending some time with some of my favourite yelpers tonight, that pint of Grasshopper went down smooth - even better, it was on…More »
On the Rocks is a pretty cool downtown joint for those looking for an unpretentious place to grab a… Read more »
Walk in here knowing what you're getting yourself into, and you're going to have a hell of a night.
It doesn't matter if you're a college student out for post-exam libations or part an older pack, just here for the pool tables and slot machines.

I have so many fond memories of Cram Dunk. Actually, the circumstances of said memories are usually not so fond. Staying overnight in SUB to write a paper or study for finals...that was when I needed Cram Dunk the most.
The donuts and pastries are…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.

This spot is kind of run down, but on a hot summer night when I lived in Garneau, there was nowhere I would have rather been for a pizza and cold beer on the patio. (Well, that's not entirely true, but it wasn't so bad.)
It's a pub at heart, but the…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 »
Awesome! Awesome awesome awesome. How else can I describe The Carrot? Oh, wait - awesome.
To kick things off, The Carrot has everything I look for in a coffee shop. Lots of tables, piping hot coffee, friendly staff, free wifi, and an eclectic…More »
I grew up in St. Albert, and while I go back frequently (usually every week or so), my trips are usually only to my parents' place (my childhood home!) and back home again.
Yesterday, I had an appointment with my eye doctor, the same one I've been…More »
I think this might be my favourite quick eats spot in the city. I find myself eating on the go pretty frequently and I love that this place isn't part of a massive chain. I also love any kind of Asian flavours, plus the part where it's made exactly…More »
I'm so bummed out, you guys. I had the highest of hopes for El Rancho. It's a Mexican restaurant (star!) in a neighbourhood I don't get to explore as often as I would like (star!) that's highly reviewed by my fellow yelpers (star!) - what would there…More »
Despite favouring Indian food over almost any other cuisine, you might notice that I'm severely lacking in Indian restaurant reviews. In spite of my Indian fondness for butter chicken, saffron rice, every kind of curry EVER and of course, naan bread.…More »

I had plans to meet an old university friend off-campus the other day, but what with the weather being what it was (brrrrr!), she wasn't too keen on walking somewhere off campus (she works for the U of A). I concurred and we decided on Dewey's. Food,…More »
The first thing you need to know about The Nest, which is awesome, is that it's not just a student bar. No student ID? No problem. This place is open to the public. Very cool, especially because this place isn't just a bar, but a popular concert…More »
Yelpers, I'm telling you that you've got to check out this bar, for a couple of reasons. One, it's new and kind of hidden, so you'll be totally in-the-know about a pub that many people haven't heard of yet. Two, because it's so new and little-known,…More »
After plans for Girls Night Out Bulldogs at Julio's went south (a 45 min wait for two of us!), we made the decision to check out The Rack.
It was about 9 PM on a Saturday night when we arrived so it wasn't very busy (yet). We saddled up at the bar…More »
Had an awesome night out here! It wasn't totally authentic Mexican food, but it was dang delicious. The only requirement I have of a quesadilla is that it be super cheesy, and these delivered.
Even if you're "meh" on the food (I actually like the…More »
Hey there, new favourite "Asian fusion" restaurant (whatever that means). Located quite a ways down 82 Ave, I had driven past dozens of times but never gone out of my way to check it out. My cousin and her BF were in town from Calgary for the weekend…More »
Disappointing! Here is what happened to me on Wednesday: I went to Elections Alberta to try to vote, as per the instructions on their website. I drove from the south side to the north side, only to be told to head back to the south side to visit my…More »

10 PM on a Saturday night and we needed some greasy eats. I was in the mood for pasta but Michael J wouldn't negotiate, so we found the nearest burger place still open that wasn't super gross fast food.
Fatburger is fast food, but it's fresher and…More »
