Great dining experience. The kitchen is uniquely visible, the staff are amazing and the atmosphere was great; dim lighting & cool wine-bottle glasses. It's a little pricey, but the food is worth it. Yum!!!Food: 5/5
I've dined at the Brasserie a few times since moving to Halifax and I have never been let down! The atmosphere is cozy, yet classy and inviting. The staff are always prompt and friendly. The menu is incredible, I always get the Duck and I am never let down. The wine menu, and cocktail menu are vast and delicious. I can't say enough good things about the Brasserie. Top spot in Halifax
We ate here as a group and were seated above the kitchen in a cozy space that was large enough for our 15 or so people. We had a choice of appetizers main course and dessert. I enjoyed my calamari, it was cooked perfectly and was definitely sharable in size. I couldn’t eat more than half of it as I wanted to enjoy my main , the herbed chicken. The herbed chicken was a mixture and not the usual breast meat by itself. The accompanying veg and sauce tasted great. For dessert they hit it out of the park with cheesecake. I enjoyed my meal but would have loved it if I’d read the menu in better light. The green bean Caesar looked amazing and everyone who had it cleaned their plates. However the filet mignon were undercooked but still had great taste. The bread pudding was yummy as well.
Very nice spot, great interior. We sat at the bar, and ordered a couple drinks and desserts. The bartender made a special off the menu drink, and it was delicious. Dessert was wonderful, and a good portion size as well. Would recommend.
Impeccable service. Absolutely delicious food! The duck was served perfectly medium rare. The mashed potatoes somehow made a normal dish extraordinary! We will definitely be back
I have never been , and my best friend recommended that we go for dinner for the Pre-Fixed menu Sunday-Thursdays. I love the detailed little note on the inside of the menu. The place aesthetically amazing, so detailed in classic brasserie style. It was very busy and there were a lot of larger groups, however the staff was amazing and our server was too I forget your name but thank you for being so kind and genuine!!. The food was some of the best food I've ever had and now one of my favorite restaurants. We both had the caeser with brussel sprouts one of the best appetizers / salads again that I've ever had with steak frites, cooked to perfection with an amazing sauce. There are desserts but we were so full get an option to go its worth it Thank you again for the amazing meal and hospitality. I will be back: P.S. make a reservation! this is a busy trendy spot, super worth it.
I originally went here because there's a board game called Agricola and I thought it was funny. We went late on a Thursday or something and the kitchen was only doing appetizers, but I tried steak tartare for the first time and it was pretty good. Very nice venue and great selection of drinks.
We both agreed that this was one of the best restaurants we have eaten at. When we came through the door the smell of bread baking got me off to a good sense that we would have a great meal. Started off with scallops perfect. My friend had the asparagus Caesar salad soooo good. We both had the Steak and Frites cooked perfectly as ordered. Dessert was amazing. Carrot Cake yum We spent almost 2 hours savouring each bite. The staff was amazing. Attentive and friendly and answered our queries about the food we were ordering. Kudos.
The vibe is chill. The ambiance in the restaurant is inviting and warm. The place is very nicely decorated. The service is great. But let me tell you the charcuterie boards were amazing. We order the meat and cheese boards. I will definitely be coming back and ordering a full menu.
It's been 5 years since my last review and nothing much has changed. Food is still pretty good. Staff are great. Atmosphere is still cozy. But for me the place is kind of missing a spark. I enjoy sitting at the bar and enjoying a cocktail but a seated meal isn't a special experience. I never come away saying "wow" odd since all the ingredients are there. And air driers in the bathrooms, gah. Still a nice stop for a beverage on Agricola.
