Restaurants near Halifax Common

Great experience as always. Can't beat location, menu, atmosphere. 10/10

I booked a table for one at Eliot & Vine for my last night in Halifax after a busy 5 days. I had read good reviews and wanted to treat myself. Treat myself I did! I was given my choice of sitting at the bar or in a beautiful booth (I chose the booth). I started with a lovely local glass of bubbles and 6 oysters. The homemade hot sauce was delicious! I then had the fried brussel sprouts, which I honestly can't stop thinking about. Right amount of savoury and sweetness, plus the crunch with the walnuts was perfect. My server asked if wanted anything more to drink and I said just a glass of white wine. She suggested a Sauvignon Blanc (which turned out to be one of my favourites from New Zealand) to go with the haddock. The portion size was perfect, the veggies were crisp, and even though it had a panko crust, it was not too heavy. I really appreciated the service - dining alone can sometimes be challenging, but the server chatted when I wanted, plus gave me space when I wanted to read my book. I also really appreciated the decor - loved the artwork and personal touches. All in all, I had a perfect meal and I would highly recommend. It was a bit chilly to sit outside, but next time I will take advantage of the patio (and come earlier for happy hour for the Buck a Shuck oysters)!

Nice relaxing atmosphere and the pizza was amazing. Best I’ve had in Halifax.

Food, service and ambiance were excellent. However it would have been nice have to have had more options for wine by the glass at a wine bar

Always enjoy the food here. Have been several times.
