Ernest's Dining Room at NAIT has been aptly described as the "jewel in the crown" of Hokanson Centre for Culinary Arts in the School of Skilled Trades. Ernest's decor is described as "understated elegance". Tasteful compliments of cherry wood and brass highlights, a beautiful rock feature wall, muted lighting and attention to detail provide the room with a distinct corporate ambience. Critically acclaimed and numerous accolades identify the "haute cuisine" prepared by second year Culinary Arts diploma students as "outstanding". OpenTable diners voted Ernest's top 100 in Canada for two consecutive years. Seasoned chef instructors emphasize the importance of using high quality local regional products. Mastery of traditional cookery combined with contemporary artistry has resulted in a truly electric cuisine. Elegant service is provided by eager Culinary and Hospitality students. An emphasis on etiquette and authenticity is encouraged through the guidance of professional mentors.

AT LA PATRONA, EVERYONE IS FAMILY
& The food is Authentic Mexican Deliciousness
Chef Carlos grew up in Mexico City in a food culture as diverse and unique as any in the world. After leaving Mexico when he was 19, he spent many years working in kitchens across the US and discovering his passion for creating food that everyone can enjoy.
Hard work and dedication through his training at La Cordon Bleu Culinary Arts Institute landed him a highly coveted gig at a Michelin-starred restaurant in California before he finally made his way to Canada.
In Edmonton, Chef Carlos and his business partner - Janette, started the Casa12Doce food truck. Set up for many years, Casa12Doce became not only a staple of the food truck scene but also of the community.
The delicious, authentic food created a following so loyal that when Chef Carlos and Janette decided to open a restaurant in 2016, it did not take long for the place to fill up regularly.

Uccellino

Price: Very Expensive

Uccellino [oo-che-LEE-no] is a modern restaurant inspired by the trattorias of Italy. We serve simple Italian dishes that highlight the qualities of distinct ingredients, both local and imported. Our wine list is exclusively Italian. We also serve traditional cocktails, craft beer, and an extensive number of Italian Amari and Grappas.

vivo ristorante - Westend

Price: Very Expensive

vivo is where Italian comes alive. We relish the enthusiasm and joy with which the traditional Italian meal is prepared and delivered, and seek to recreate that experience for every guest. Our open kitchen showcases our chefs preparing fresh and local ingredients.
When you join us for dinner, expect it to be a relaxing evening lasting a couple hours over several piatti (courses). Your table comes alive when we present a variety of large offerings on platters or bowls within easy reach of all.
A classic Italian pranzo (dinner) usually beings with a variety of antipasti (hot and cold appetizers), followed by one or two primi (usually a hot pasta, risotto, gnocchi or zuppa). Next your table will share a secondi (entrees) served on a platter combined with your choice of contorni (vegetable side dishes). Italians often complete their meal with un dolce, un caffe, or un digestivo (dessert, espresso, liqueur or grappa).
we only use fresh in house made pastas and sauces.

My team met there for a lunch meeting. The service was grand and our server had great rapport with us. The beer is fantastic! Of course, it was full at lunch time so a bit loud and we had to raise our voices to hear each other. For the most part the food was delicious (one of our group found the falafel burger too messy and the falafel itself was not very flavourful). Overall, it was a very good experience that we will definitely repeat.

We were given a gift card for Bonduk; otherwise, we would not have known about this gem of a restaurant. The server was fantastic, the food creative and excellent. A tad expensive but probably worth the price for a nice evening out. The music was too loud for our comfort and taste. It could be turned down a tad.
