The 50 best bakeries in Edmonton

I ate a delicious peach brioche warmed and espresso. I also got some macrons for the road, they are delicious I enjoyed my visit and plan on making future visits. It got busy while I was there so that's a good sign. 10/10!

Great bake shop located on Edmonton’s trendy 124 Street. The key lime tart is a personal favourite. Very busy on weekends and parking is always a challenge. Make sure you park in legal zones and pay as required because the parking patrol is quite diligent in this area.

This is the bakery I never miss whenever I visit Edmonton. It still amazes me that such an outstanding bakery exists here. The croissants and macarons—if I may exaggerate a little—tasted just like the ones I had in Paris. Truly exceptional.😉 I only wish they would open a location in Toronto as well. I even picked up one of their tote bags and a bakery book during my visit. My only regret is being too busy enjoying the pastries to take more photos!🤗

Amazing! Got some Macarons and Croissants and they were really good. Also really really enjoyed the coffee I got here! Was having some issues booking a taxi and they kindly also let me use the WiFi!

Great local bakery west of Edmonton city centre. They've got an array of lovely baked goods decently priced whether it be cakes, custard, macaroons, etc, they've got it all.

I have participated in a few baking classes and they have been well organized and so fun! Katie is an excellent instructor! We learned so much about chocolate too! Great activity for a celebration or team event.

An Edmonton original in European baking excellence — a true brainchild turned beloved institution. Elegant, warm, and consistently exceptional. Exquisite pastries, beautifully brewed drinks, and friendly staff make Duchess a must-visit, time and again. For a closer look — A beloved Edmonton bakery and café I’ve returned to for years, Duchess Bake Shop embodies the art and precision of world-class patisserie. Founder-owned and operated by passionate people who clearly love their craft, their dedication shows in every detail — from the flakiest croissants, delicious macarons, to the most beautifully balanced seasonal tarts. Every visit reaffirms why Duchess remains at the heart of Edmonton’s culinary scene: consistently exquisite quality, genuine hospitality, and a timeless sense of charm. The bright, airy interior feels both refined and warm, and the service strikes that perfect balance of professional and personable. You can even take a piece of the experience home — literally — with their Duchess Bake Shop Cookbook, a wonderful way to recreate the magic (just be sure to use the finest ingredients to match their standard of baking). Indoors or out, Duchess offers an elevated yet welcoming café experience that continues to set the standard for excellence in Edmonton.

I got my birthday cake from here, and it was a lovely experience. The decor and atmosphere are charming—it really gives off the cozy vibe of a British tea house. They also seem to host special events on weekends, which adds to the charm. The staff were incredibly welcoming and friendly. The cake itself was delicious, though a bit too heavy on the cream for my taste.

Our wedding cake was beyond anything we could have imagined—absolutely stunning and truly the star of the night. The moment it was brought out, the entire room gasped, rushed in for photos, and it created one of the most unforgettable moments of our wedding. Not only was it gorgeous, but it was also delicious (as we knew it would be). Every detail was remarkable and went above and beyond our expectations, and the care, service, and kindness from the whole team made the experience so special from start to finish. If you’re looking for a cake that’s both breathtaking and delicious, look no further—this is the team to trust!

I just enjoy visiting the store though it's far from my house. There's something magical about the atmosphere that calms you when you enter. The quaint decor is quite pleasing to the senses. The service is great, and the cakes taste so nice as well. My goto for cakes anytime!

I purchased this cake for my wife’s birthday after reading several great reviews for The Art of Cake and noticing the high Google rating. We have a big sweet tooth so we were pretty excited to try this place out. The flavor I purchased was the Lotus cake. The cake taste is not bad but the texture is off and doughy. The cream was lacking and doesn’t have much depth to it; basically tastes like whipped cream. We were very unimpressed with everything despite paying a premium for this cake. On top of that, I am very certain that The Art of Cake uses Betty Crocker cake mix to make their cakes. I cannot recommend this place and would be best to avoid it altogether. The staff were friendly and polite but for some reason, I was asked to tip the staff for a cake that was purchased to take home. It left me confused and baffled.

The aesthetics of this place are mesmerizing. It is located in a secluded place. But each element of the decor is a separate story. Pleasant atmosphere, friendly staff. Coffee and desserts (large selection) are delicious. There are several halls and each of them is amazing.

I recently hosted a high tea for 18 of my friends, and I can’t thank The Art of Cake enough for making it such a memorable event! The food was nothing less than fantastic—each item was not only delicious but also beautifully presented. My guests were in awe of both the taste and the stunning visuals of the treats. The team was incredibly accommodating with all of my requests, and the person I communicated with via email was absolutely amazing. Their attention to detail and willingness to help made the planning process a breeze. Customer service was exceptional, matching the high quality of the food. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience! I highly recommend The Art of Cake for anyone looking to elevate their event with exquisite food that will impress all your guests.

The name speaks for itself, I cannot tell you enough how sublime the cakes are here. What makes everything so much more sweet is the service and how warm and lovely every single person who works at this establishment are. When I say there is no other place to grab a Coffee, Cake or an exceptional high tea experience this is your place. My husband and I had our gender reveal here and I wouldn’t have changed anything about it. Tears were flowing and it was a magical experience all because of how The Art Of Cake made the day so perfect. I am looking forward to coming back and I already know where we are getting our son’s first birthday cake. I would recommend this place to anybody, you will never get better service and the most decadent cake anywhere else. You are perfection. 🩷✨

They offer a wide variety of croissant flavors, and we tried three of them. The croissants were a bit on the dry side and the flavors not very strong, though the salted egg yolk filling was interesting and worth a try. I’d recommend going earlier in the day or reserving online/by phone since the selection can be quite limited and you might miss out on the flavors you want on the afternoon.

Delightfully elevated croissants, both sweet and savory. The $7 croissant and coffee special is a really good deal because their brewed coffee is actually really good and doesn't taste like mud or grounds. I sampled both, the pistachio and the truffle and was overwhelmed by the delectable and subtle tastes.

Small selection of croissants, but all of them looks amazing. We bought 4 different kinds, and they were all delicious. Not overly sweet and you can taste the good buttery flakes of the croissants.

Everything is incredibly delicious, I couldn't resist and took a bite before taking a photo. The croissants are very tasty!! The coffee is wonderful, the staff is very friendly. The establishment is very clean. I recommend it to everyone! ❤️❤️❤

When in Edmonton this is a great place to go and get a delicious European style croissant. Angie was the one to serve me and did so with such care. She asked where I was from and we even shared previous travel destinations. Very friendly service ! Coming from Montreal where there are so many French bakeries around the competition is very fierce. That said Choccorant has a great recipe, and they seem to be doing quite well for themselves. I ordered a few boxes of croissants for a work event, and I even had a few myself during my stay. They are very delicious and crunchy and I think Edmonton is very lucky to have them make such a good version of the croissant. I would have hoped the sandwich would have been made with more care and finesse (the spreading of the cranberries and the generosity of the Brie and turkey. Alas, it’s all good.

We’ve been loyal customers of Chocorrant Pâtisserie + Café in Edmonton for over four years, and it has truly become our go-to spot for cakes and pastries. Our first visit was while searching for a cake for a special occasion, and ever since, it has been our reliable choice whenever we need something sweet. Their croissants are absolutely fantastic—flaky, buttery, and perfectly golden, with a variety of delicious fillings that are both indulgent and balanced, never overpowering. The cakes are another highlight: rich, fresh, and never too sweet, making every bite a delight. We also love that they offer 5x5 cakes, perfect for smaller gatherings, as well as the larger sizes for bigger celebrations. For desserts, the Raspberry Yuzu Cake is my personal favorite, while my husband can’t get enough of the Earl Grey Opera Cake. Every visit reminds us why we keep coming back—great pastries, thoughtful presentation, and consistent quality. The staff are always friendly and kind, and their customer service is excellent—they respond quickly to emails and any questions about orders. Our orders are always ready promptly and on time, making every experience seamless and enjoyable.

I’m a regular costumer here for Salted yolk, live in the Southwest so every time we go near Jasper Ave I will stop by to buy some. This is the 1st time that I bought 4 and 1 of them has no filling in it. I really love the flavor and filling is super important to the whole croissant but very disappointed that it is missing. Single croissant is not cheap here so I would expect that it worth every penny I paid, this is equivalent to a plain croissant :(

My sister had ordered this cake and had it delivered to me as a surprise. I was shocked when opening the box, the cake was as delicious as it was beautiful. She had a great conversation with the person over the phone while ordering. The macaroons, specifically the purple one was out of this world. I need to go see if they sell them in person! I recently moved across the country for a new job. Thank you for making a milestone birthday so special ♥️

Visiting the farmers market today and wandering the Whyte Ave area — I love discovering these little shops tucked in the alleys behind the main streets. One great surprise: Sugared & Spiced. Lots of awards on the wall (for some reason! 😀) — and when you see the cakes, you’ll understand why. Had a snack and a coffee — wonderful.

Our typical order is a lemon meringue tart, a ginger cookie and peanut butter marshmallow squares. Everything is fresh and delicious. We highly recommend this back alley bakery 😊🥰

The CUTEST little place, with amazing atmosphere and great food! This back alley basement bakery is so whimsical and delightful. And their little patio is so amazing on a hot day, you can be outside but fully shaded and cool and chill. I got their sourdough bread to take home and it was great, and my sister has a croissant and I tried a piece and it was amazing. Stop for the food, stay for the ambiance!

This is a family run bakery in the alley north of Whyte Ave, the owner is among the crew that greets you at the counter. Everything they make is Instagram worthy, everything is delicious! As a realtor, I buy a lot of treats for clients, and I have never heard anything but rave reviews for Sugared and Spiced!

I order my birthday cakes from here and am never dissatisfied! The cakes are always beautiful and packaged safely. I love the texture and taste of the cake--not too dense and heavy and not overpoweringly sweet. I love that you can choose your cake flavour (i recommend lemon raspberry or chocolate raspberry) and customize the colours of the icing, macarons, and meringue. The 4" is a perfectly sized personal cake for yourself and a friend.

This is my first experience/order, but it certainly will not be my last. I ordered a 4 inch lemon/cream cake and it was heavenly! To start with, the sponge was light and fluffy while still being moist and super flavourful without being overly sweet. The frosting was light and buttery, and also no overly sweet. The lemon cream filling had the perfect balance of sweet and tart. The ratio of sponge, to filling, to butter cream was perfect! The decoration and colours were exactly as requested and I can tell that the extra notes I left on the order regarding the theme of the cake were read and applied (it was a half way to Halloween theme for a much delayed birthday). Overall a very positive experience, and as mentioned at the beginning, I will be back.

I knew the name Bon Ton as a well-respected bakery, but I hadn't made the trek into their doors until recently. Beyond offering baked goods, bulk breads, and coffees, their market should be celebrated across Edmonton. It's more than just elevated staples, spices, and pick-me-ups — it's a distillate of some of the most creative and hardworking food producers in the city. Expect everything from ice cream, ferments, pre-packed soups, and roadtrip-ready pretzels. The staff are entertaining, efficient, and engaged. Their treats have textures I didn't know were possible in the same bite. It's just so dang good. If you're shopping for yourself or hoping to show a visitor around town, skip the mall and stop by Bon Ton. I wish I had sooner.

We got the sticky bun ring to bring home in our own reusable container. The super nice and helpful guy behind the counter noticed our container and didn’t think us weird at all for bringing it. My kid loves the sticky buns so much, he’s willing to overlook the pecans and raisins in it. The vanilla mille-feuille is delicious — creamy and oh so flaky — though the top was a bit sweet. Would be great with coffee to cut the sweetness. Husband tried the flavour of the month mojito pastry, which was also incredible — like a mousse dessert, with a hardened gel shell and a hint of lime flavour. Amazing local bakery with top quality baked goods and service! Definitely coming back.

A busy place , lots of yummy bakery to chose from . Very friendly & helpful staff . Worth the trip . Simply amazing

A busy cafe that is worth visiting. Tons of selection with creative and fun bakery items along with your standard fare. We loved our soft baked pretzels and cappuccinos. Will certainly be coming back!

My brother and sister in law moved out here a year ago and we came to this bakery. OMG! The items are amazing. Everything is so delish!

I used to think I hated bagels… turns out I just hadn’t tried Bon Ton’s bagels yet. These are on a whole different level. Now I wonder if this is what bagels are actually supposed to taste like, because I feel like I’ve been missing out all this time. The staff are always super friendly too. Came by to pick up my order with my Dad after work, both of us running on an empty stomach, and the guy at the counter gave us two olive flutes for free! We ate them in the car before we even left the parking lot. SO GOOD!!! They are like fancy breadsticks with such a nice salty flavour from the olives. Super glad to have a place like this here in Edmonton! 🩵

If there is less than six of an item.When you take your tag to choose your number.In order to which you are served, make sure you have a plan b.As things go very quickly here.

One of the best bakeries I’ve ever been to! Everything tasted fresh and amazing, especially the eclairs and the black forest cake. Every item I tried was absolutely delicious with just the right balance of flavor and texture. You can tell everything is made with love and high-quality ingredients. Cozy vibe, lovely staff, and treats that make you want to come back every day.

I've bought black forest cakes from Vienna for a few years now. They are so well done and I always get compliments on how great they taste. I always request "Happy Birthday" written in whatever language the birthday person speaks. In my photos, German and Polish. Vienna Bakery is your go to for a variety of cakes, breads (including pretzels) and sweet treats! Highly recommend this little bakery to everyone who hasn't been yet!

All the products of this bakery is top notch. Staff is very friendly and the owners are extremely knowledgeable and welcoming.This is our go to spot for all our bakery need. Thank you for all your efforts to make our visits delicious.

When I go to an Indian restaurant I want the owners and cooks to be Indian. When I go to a German / Austrian bakery I would think the owners would be German. The owners of this bakery are from India. The workers are from Phillippines, Romania. That’s fine…If they’re trained in German culinary skills. The bakery seems to be functional but I’m not sure about the quality. I came when they opened at exactly 8:00 AM. I ordered the mohnkuchen at $5 for a small piece. It was stale. So I’m giving a 1 star. Maybe I’ll try again in the future

Pre ordered a cake in advance. Specifically said mocha torte including a picture. When I picked it up, it was a completely different cake. It was absolutely beautiful but not what we ordered. Obviously took the cake anyway because it was absolutely beautiful and would "do the trick"....and I was in a time crunch and desperate at this point. It was so dry and had SOOOOO much icing, not one person could finish their piece. Very disappointing experience all around sadly. We won't be back.

Vienna Bakery is a hidden gem in Edmonton. I was completely blown away by their amazing kulchas - incredibly soft, flavorful, and fresh. You can really taste the care and quality in everything they make.

Very good place. Staff is really friendly. Bread is so delicious.specially rye bread is my favourite.and their Black Forest is 10/10.

The moment you walk in you're greeted by the wonderful smell of fresh bread and pastries. Their croissants are perfectly flaky, the pastries decadent and the artisan sourdough has a golden crust with a soft, tender crumb. The staff are always warm and eager to recommend something new, and you can tell they care about the quality. I love that they use local ingredients—you can really taste the craftsmanship. An inviting, cozy spot for breakfast bread pickup or a sweet treat!

Great bakery on Whyte. I've been stopping by for some sourdough loaves and pastries for a couple months now and it never disappoints! Definitely recommend their bread and also the Madagascar pastry. All the pastries I've tried were good though so you can't go wrong.

I wish I had found this place earlier! I can't wait to try the pumpkin bread I got. It's my first time buying sourdough from this charming local bakery, and I’m hopeful I might fall in love with it and move away from regular grocery-store bread. Thanks so much for your thoughtful care!

First time checking out Bonjour Baking and Whyte Ave. They sell all types of baguettes , sourdough and many more breads. They have a small selection of pastries. A bit disappointed that they didn’t have croissants. They also sell cheese, drinks, jams etc. A great place to buy different breads.🥖🍞

The sourdough breads are absolutely wonderful. If you are looking for a place to buy sourdough this would be the place. Though the pastries they sell aren't worth the hype. Over all it was a great experience and I would come here again just for the sourdough as well as the rest of their bread.

Amazing croissants, sourdough bread, and cheese!! I want to try everything, what we have had so far was all amazing. Got some great cheeses recommended to us, and had a proper croissant that was delicious (not just a crescent shaped bun like a lot of places try to pass off as a croissant!). Yes I ate it in the car, couldn't wait to get home! And they have small loaves of sourdough which is perfect, we aren't big bread eaters (despite the love for croissants) so the smaller loaf was great for us. Aaaand now I need to go back asap.

The croissants are awesome! Friendly and welcome staff. Wish they were open for longer hours/days!

Like the sting cake, it's the weekend special, the cheese cream layer is textured well and tastes great! Pretzel is also nice!

A wonderful German bakery in south Edmonton that has been run by the same family for decades. The pretzels are, of course, exemplary along with their pretzel buns (pretzel buns are Friday and Saturday only). Their variety of pastries, tortes and pies are almost overwhelming on what to enjoy first! Danishes and the Quark Cheesecake are my personal favourites. The breads and buns are naturally sourdough leavened and have a deeper flavour because of it. It can be busy on Fridays and Saturdays, but like any independent bakery, it’s best to call ahead if you want something specific. They have such a magical selection that going in on a whim is perfectly fine too!

The pretzel was really good. We ate it with some warm butter and jam. Loved it. The salt pieces on the pretzel are not a lot. Can easily pick or rub most of them off. Note that they run out of pretzels early. 4 left at 4 in the afternoon. Enjoyed the cream horn as well. I absolutely loved the brownie. Decedent and rich. The yellow one has some marzipan stuffed into cookie dough. You either like marzipan or don't. Will be back. They sell bread as well. $16 for the marzipan cookie, brownie, cream horn and 2pretzels.

I’m getting ready to host a German Exchange student for a few months and all my European friends and Germans on Reddit told me this is the place to buy the best bread in the area. They did not disappoint. I also ended up bringing home pretzels and sausage roll (I ate that in store because it was the best I’ve ever tasted). There weren’t a lot of customers at the moment so my friend and I ended up chatting with the staff for a bit. They were so friendly and knowledgeable that we left there with the biggest grins. Absolutely the best bread I have tasted. I live out of town but this will be a weekly visit for me from now on.

Nice clean business. Staff is somewhat friendly but fast service.

This bakery is exceptional in many ways. From the inviting atmospere to the sinful treats and pastries offered there, its amazing! The prices are reasonable considering the level of heaven your getting. I even heard someone that works there speaking fluent german to a lady who came in and spoke german. Cool. I highly recommend for breakfast, or lunch and takeaways. Edit: Just found out its a german bakery. Ha.

LOVE this bakery! This is my family's favorite Bakery in all of Edmonton, we've been coming here for more than 20 years. They have the most amazing pastries and breads. The Sovital bread is wonderful, and we order the 7 layer torte for pretty much every birthday.

What a beautiful establishment with such wonderful goodies! You got to check it out!They have an amazing bakery filled with all the variety of yumminess & a store with all those yummy Dutch candies/ chocolate. And oh my gosh, such lovely kind workers there!!! Highly recommend this cute establishment!!!!

What great Dutch shop here! We were really enjoying their food and their goodies. I had placed an order for Dutch slippers (they all cute) and I looking forward to have it as soon as they get them.

Amazing cake, breads and sweets. The staff are actually so beyond friendly and sweet. Super good prices and they don’t cheap out on quality.

Cafe ☕️ plus restaurant plus retail store. This is an amazing place and my wife and I definitely recommend coming here to enjoy whatever you like. There is something here for everyone. There is plenty of parking outside and easy access to the store. The store is clean and well lit. The ambiance is nice and if you stay for a coffee ☕️ or a meal 🍽️ there is nice seating. The washroom is clean. We enjoyed our time here. There are some great Dutch treats and products and gifts that you will enjoy.

We enjoyed delicious fish and chips and a cheese stuffed puffed pastry as well as 2 kinds of cookies!! We were beyond stuffed!!! All the staff we interacted with were great. The young boy who was in charge of floor washing machine did a great job. His work ethic will take him where he wants to go!

Went to Dutch Delicious to partake in their 17th year celebration 🎉 this place has it all, from baked goods of both sweet and savoury delights to breakfast items, loves of bread to a grocery store with bulk items and a coffee bar! Was most definitely with the drive 🤤 friendly staff and reasonable prices 👍🏻will definitely be stopping in again and can’t wait to try a lunch, they’re soups look tasty 😋

I love this store everyone is always so nice and friendly. You can ask any question and they take the time to answer earthing yiu need to know while always being so friendly. The store is so inviting and the layout is great .

Absolutely delightful bakery—one of my favorite stops in Alberta! From the moment you step inside, you're greeted by a cozy, colorful atmosphere that immediately makes you feel at home. Every detail in the shop reflects warmth and care. The cakes and macarons are nothing short of amazing—you can truly taste the love and craftsmanship that goes into each bite. The flavors are well-balanced, textures are perfect, and the presentation is beautiful. It’s clear that the bakers here are passionate about what they do. Whether you're treating yourself or picking up something special for someone else, this bakery is a must-visit.!

This place is such a hidden gem! I’d walked past it so many times without realizing what I was missing. The entrance doesn’t do it justice, but once you step inside, it’s cozy, warm, and has such a lovely authentic vibe. The menu is seriously impressive. So much to choose from! Fresh pastries, colourful macarons, mini cakes, sandwiches, crepes, quiches, and full-on breakfast and lunch options. Everything we tried was delicious, and the coffee was piping hot and honestly one of the best I’ve had in Edmonton. It’s a small spot but super inviting, and you can tell they put a lot of love into what they do. Definitely worth checking out if you’re into good food, good coffee, and a chill place to relax.

For my 50th birthday, ST ALBERT location on 50 Thomas Street! I celebrated in style with a high tea party that exceeded every expectation! The private room was stunningly decorated, making me feel like royalty, and the attention to detail was incredible. The food? Absolutely divine. From the delicate finger sandwiches to the decadent pastries, everything was perfect, but the highlight had to be the macaroons. Each bite was a melt-in-your-mouth experience, with flavors that were beyond indulgent. Honestly, they were to die for! This venue isn’t just for milestone birthdays—it’s perfect for any occasion, whether you’re celebrating turning 5, 50, or anywhere in between. It’s like stepping into a birthday dream. The whole event felt more than 5 stars, and I highly recommend it for anyone looking to host a private gathering. Their dedication to making every detail perfect guarantees an unforgettable experience! The staff were so accommodating at the ST ALBERT location.

Very nice atmosphere, and very friendly attentive staff. The baked good are also amazing 10/10 will return

Nice staff and super delicious food... I highly recommend this place! macarons tasted fabulous. I look forward to my next visit After the owner review,I would like to better describe my experience their macarons are crispy and delicious with perfect level of sweetness. Just like the kind of macarons I had in Morocco except it’s crispy. I would definitely come back and buy more and try other pastries.

I came here to pickup an order I had made online for an office party. I ordered 4 dozen macarons; pistachio, pomegranate, mango, and blueberry. The ordering process was quick and easy. When I went to pick up the macarons, I instantly fell in love with the little piece of France that is the bakery itself. The decor is mismatched, yet it looks carefully curated to create a sense of intentionality and visual interest. The space is small but abundant in curiosity. The service counter features the beautiful pastries the chef creates, the service is friendly and inviting. When I asked for the order I had placed a few days back, the chef brought them out himself, gave me some tips on when and how to serve, and off I went. When I got back to the office and unboxed the macarons, I was delighted by their uniformity, size and vibrancy. They were exquisite and an absolute hit!

I've been to the St Albert location a number of times and the downtown location twice now. It's always a good experience and I love their chicken and mushroom crepes with the rich cream sauce and cheese on top. It's a large portion so you might want to take some home with you so you have room for the desserts. I tried macarons a few times at other locations and I never liked them because they always seemed overly sweet but I recently tried them here and they are absolutely delicious. I love the flavor and the slight exterior crunch with a bit of chewiness inside. I just ate one for breakfast which is very unlike me, but it was so good. I also highly recommend their mushroom soup and the chicken sandwich.

Went there just because I happened to be in the area. Shop isn't big but there's plenty of options. I had heard they make terrific donuts, in particular their apple fritters. Unfortunately, by 11:30am donuts are sold out so I bought two cinnamon rolls instead. Lucy gave me a third one for free-so sweet of her🥰. Cinnamon rolls were very good, with just the right sweetness and delicious flavor. (No raisins or glaze or frosting.)I was told to come right when they open or better yet, to order in advance to get the donuts. I'll be back for sure and I'll be putting in an order for next time. 😁👍👍

You may heard that this place will be changing hands in the near future so get out there and try their donuts and sausage rolls before you can’t anymore. If you’re going on Saturday make sure to arrive early as the line starts before they open and sweets sell out fast because they’re delicious. The apple fritters are HUGE and even have apple filling inside mmmmmmm they’re a perfect fall dessert!!! The sausage rolls are light and flaky plus the sausage flavour is on point!!! Try this place as soon as you can 🥰

Lucy is the best! Kind service and delicious fresh baked goods made with love. You can taste the love 🩷 Love this place! Cheese bread, sausage rolls,cinnamon buns, scones, tarts, brownies and the epic apple fritters. Everything I have tried has been awesome!

Hands down the best apple fritter I have ever had...but everything else we had was also delicious. The people are so friendly and even snuck a few freebies into our order. Prices are great too! Well worth the wait in line!

I had a nice conversation with the owner in mandarin, told her it was my first time trying a sausage roll, and she gave me one for free! :'). I recommend anybody to go there, just don't abuse trying to get free stuff cause this is family owned and not some big corporation. The sausage roll tastes very similar to something back in my country and I really like it!

Most amazing Apple Fritters, Cinnamon Buns, Banana Bread…!! A family run, neighbourhood bakery that must be enjoyed whenever you get a chance, do not miss it, your taste buds won’t let you forget!! Quantity of daily baked goods is limited, expect a line in the mornings until complete sell out, consider pre ordering when available. Highly Recommended to everyone!!

We always get the banana bread, donuts, and apple fritters! Always tastes so good and Lucy is always incredibly nice, giving us freebies when we go in. 🥰

I always love visiting Bliss Baked Goods. The staff are knowledgeable and the couple that own the bakery are a really lovely couple. They are passionate about what they do and you can taste it in all of the food that is made here. Honestly it’s impossible for me to pick a favourite item because every is delicious. It definitely helps that everything is dairy free too.

Ordered 18 donuts for pick up - they were ready to go as soon as I arrived. Fresh made and they smell amazing 🤩 these are going to make some people very happy today! I love that they make everything in house. Supporting local bakeries is something I adore & Bliss makes some of the best donuts in town! 10/10 you have to try them!

I love Bliss Baked Goods. The best vegan donuts! Friendly, helpful staff. So grateful to have a place I can buy bread, buns, bagels, and treats that are safe for my kid with allergies. They make my life easier.

Bliss Baked Goods 10710 142 St NW I was in the neighborhood and was looking for a bakery. Google reviews brought me here. Right now, there's construction going on in the whole shopping center but the store is open. They are a dairy and nut free bakery, which isn't an issue for me, so I wasn't sure what to expect. All of the baked goods looked amazing so it was hard to decide but I got a Butterbeer cupcake, a Chocolate Maple Square, a Boston Creme Donut and the Buy 1, Get 1 free Sourdough Bread. The lady at the counter was super friendly and very helpful. Everything I got was delicious. I'd recommend this bakery to anyone.

Came here to get a cupcake for my daughter's second anniversary of her past him. Got to talking to the owner and he gave me the cupcake for my daughter for free and six donuts and five cinnamon buns all for free. The atmosphere of the bakery is very good, welcoming and friendly. Well definitely 100% return. Thanks again for everything guys. If my followers could please support this business that'd be appreciate it

Walked over with my kids after getting ice cream at Friesen brothers and the lady proceeded to lecture me about the kids having ice cream cones in their hands and how they are a dairy free establishment, as if someone off the street should know this information. Made us feel super awkward and uncomfortable. I’ll never return to this bakery. I’ll take my business elsewhere, that was absolutely ridiculous.

Bliss offers an excellent selection of dairy free baked goods, including various specialty breads, cupcakes, cookies, muffins,scones, cinnamon buns and blissful pastries! I like to order ahead and pick up on Fridays when many of their specialty items are available. Our favourites are the Persian bread with everything on it, cupcakes, sausage rolls, and scones. The staff are genuinely kind and make me glad to be a customer.

The downtown Edmonton Italian Centre is a true local success story. Frank Spinelli—God bless him—sits across from the store he founded decades ago, and he’d be so proud of what his daughter has built. This is my favorite location, the original, and always a treat to visit. Whether grabbing some lunch necessities or just browsing, the experience is always fantastic. Today’s purchase was Italian Mortadella, German butter cheese (non-smoked), and a beautifully ripe beefsteak tomato. The service is great, the selection is unbelievable, and the quality is premium—all at fair prices.

i love to sit and hear the italian being spoken in here. today we took our coffee and our sandwiches to go and we had a beautiful munch at home but this place is wonderful to dine in or take out. been coming here since i was a very small child.

The bakery is inconsistent. Very great almond croissants and ginger cookies back in May, these past 2 months have been terrible and a waste of money. Reply to owner: I'm good. Unless you want to make it up to me, I'll be happy to give this location another try. Otherwise, I'm avoiding Little Italy like the plague.

Always fresh products. Their bakery always has tasty treats. Staff is friendly and knowledgeable. The little restaurant they have attached has amazing sandwiches and drinks at decent prices

I find for the value of the product I am purchasing and the rarity of availability, the prices are highly reasonable. The pastries taste like they're made with love and the deli team is always incredibly educated in their product knowledge and impressive with their suggestions. They've never lead me wrong. This is my comfort place to shop and feel the calmness of the bustle and not chaos as such in larger grocery chains.

I had great customer service today in the Deli today. Matteo was a great help. Offered us options for items that were sold out. I asked a few questions about products I previously purchased and had issues with. He went out of his way to make sure we had the proper information. Side note - The gentleman doing the Quebec cheese demo also deserves a special shout out. We made some purchases today.

Thank you for your thoughtful response. I really appreciate how seriously you took my concern and the assurance that this will be reviewed with your team. That’s more than enough for me, and I don’t need a refund. I’m satisfied with your commitment to address the issue, and I’ll continue to support Italian Centre.

I really love this store. Good parking, sandwiches are awesome, coffee, service, ice cream in summer, but I find bakery quality has really gone down hill in the last few years. The cannoli tastes like it was filled with cool whip. Italian Centre Shop makes way better with higher quality ingredients. I really hope your quality improves soon because I love the store and selection.

Downtown location had to shut down, but fortunately we still have this location doing their thing! Awesome sandwiches, delicious doughnuts, cakes and pastries, excellent customer service and great prices! One of my favourite joints for a quick bite and tasty sweets!

We bought cakes, bread, and ice cream at Italian Bakery and everything was so good! The flavors were rich and fresh—especially the cakes. A big shoutout to the staff at the cake section who were incredibly friendly and helpful. Great service and delicious treats—definitely worth coming back!

Always a delight to stop by. While "Italian Bakery" as a title has some real competition in this corner of Edmonton, the OG's know that this crew brings their A-game in every batch. Expect moist where you want it and crunchy where you need it. Add some European-inspired staples at an affordable markup and you have a great reason to stop in this corner of 118th for your next baking project, picnic, or ammo for a late-night fridge raid. Favourite snacks: cream horns, napoleon bars, and mini-cheesecakes. Seasonally, though, the mini pumpkin pies are top notch.

Lovely bakery! Im from out of town and it was my first time here from out of town, my aunt and uncle took me out for an Italian sandwich fresh from the deli. We ate at the bakery. Lovely shop, very clean and well organized with both fresh baked goods and grocery items. Excellent selection with great prices. I had the pastrami sandwich with old havarti cheese and the tiramisu. Both were delicious. The fresh pasta and sauce looked so good and would have made a fun quick meal. If only i was staying longer, next time!. Highly recommend to stop in for a treat if you're in the area. There's also lots of parking in the back.

Bought a Corned Beef on Rye. Sandwiches in front of display look nice and big; I asked if they were fresh. She boxes for me. When I opened box after leaving to eat; I got a much smaller sandwich; looks like end pieces, and bread was dry on top. Disappointing - make sure you point out the exact sandwich you want. If you don’t watch, you get what you get. Service was nice and friendly though.

I go there for doughnuts and baked goods. I absolutely love them. Even just a basic chocolate dip will make your mouth water for more. It only goes up from there!!! I know they have more things in the store….but their doughnuts are nothing like the stuff you get at Timmies. The people that work there are great too always smiling and like their jobs!

I'm obsessed with this Edmonton bakery! Their bread and pastries are top-notch, and the staff are super friendly. The light rye and almond croissant are must-trys!

Brio is absolutely spectacular! It’s hands down my favorite bakery. Everything is made with such care and quality, you can taste it in every bite. I highly recommend the almond croissant, the pain au chocolat, and the sourdough bread, sesame whole wheat it’s my favorite! they’re simply perfect. If you love good bread and pastries, this place is a must! ✨✨

Very delicious pastry and bread! Friendly staff and nice atmosphere. They have the best coffee! My family love this place! Highly recommended!

This place has really good products, everything is tasty, fresh, and feels truly authentic. If you love real bread and classic French pastries, I highly recommend giving it a try. You can really tell the quality and care that goes into everything. My only small wish is that they were open longer hours, but I completely respect the owner's choice. Definitely worth a visit whenever you can catch them open!

I moved into the neighbourhood the beginning of this year and have religiously paid the bakery a visit multiple times a week (sometimes twice a day...). Yes the olive bread is delectable and the ham and cheese croissant is life altering. It's actually the friendly and bright women who work the store front of the bakery that brings me back every time. It's the warm intentions that you feel within the questions you are being asked. I'm more than positive others will share the same opinion as me. Foods good, the team is world class

I'm not even a huge fan of cinnamon buns, but my partner brought one home today from Brio that melted in my mouth. One of the most delicious baked goods I have ever eaten. We also get their sourdough and it's so good. Can't recommend enough!

The lemon curd cruffin was so good. Multiple flaky layers and a sweet and tangy filling. I enjoyed it. I'll try them again and maybe try the breads as that seemed like a popular choice with other customers.

I have had nothing but good experiences at Confetti Sweets and I’ve been here many times. Their baking is delicious and is consistently good, I’ve never been disappointed. They also carry a whole bunch of neat products from local vendors so there’s lots to look at and it’s much more than just a bakery. The employee the last time was also so kind to my 5 year old daughter who was chatting up a storm. Arguably the best bakery in Sherwood Park. Highly recommend.

10/10 best cookies!!!! They are so incredibly delicious, soft and just the right amount of sweetness. I happened to be in the area and was finally able to pop into the actual storefront and it’s amazing. They have so many local vendors as well on top of their own products. It’s a great showcase for all other talented people in our city. Fun store to drop into!! It’s bright and they have a selection of lots of items! Hopefully I’ll have more time next time to do a little more shopping!! Hours: Mon-Fri: 9AM - 7PM Sat-Sun: 10AM - 5PM

We received cookies from Confetti Sweets as a gift and we were impressed! It was an assortment of cookie flavours and we highly recommend them all to find your favourite. They were all delicious, not too sweet, the right texture of soft without feeling raw and a good size. I'm sure there will be one that you just adore, my favourite had to be the sprinkle one! I think if you like bringing treats, cookies from Confetti Sweets would be enjoyed and appreciated!

Fabulous locally, family owned cupcakes and cookies! The cupcakes (to our family) are unrivalled anywhere on the continent. The icing is superb, the cake is tender and rich. Plus they carry some cool and cute others foods and crafts from around Alberta in their gift area. Seriously don’t go the American US franchise Crumbl for hideously overpriced, overly sweet, unimpressive cookies-come to the Sherwood Park original 😘 you will not be disappointed. PS their packaging is gorgeous and petfect to give the treats as a gift

Love these cookies!! Makes great gifts too! People are friendly and very helpful with fundraising!

We preordered a birthday cake online and were very disappointed, especially after coming from out of town. The carrot cake was dry and overbaked. The icing—nearly two inches thick—seemed like an attempt to compensate, but it only made the dessert overly sweet and heavy. Sadly, we only ate half and had to throw the rest out.

Amazing spot for scrumptious treats! I grabbed a 12 pack of cookies. Prompt service by a lovely young lady. Variety of items to peruse if you are not after sweets. Pace yourself, you may want to eat more than 1!

It was my second time to stop by this bankers shop. My favorite was the pecan tart and Turtle cheese cake. The Opera didn’t tasted espresso and almond cake is very light. The mix books bag has peanut butter, salted caramel and red velvet cookies. But the red velvet cookies didn’t tasted creamy or buttery. The Macaroons were good, soft and sweet, fresh. If you stop by at 6-8pm, 20% off on almost every thing( except the cakes).

I was SO blown away by the cake for my daughter’s 2nd birthday. It was exactly what I asked for and looked amazing, I didn’t want to cut it! But once we did it was so delicious!! I will definitely be ordering from them again. Thank you so much :)!

Asheesh was able to make my gender reveal cake with little notice. I called the evening before at 7pm and he made it the next morning and I picked it up that afternoon. The cake was decorated so nicely and was a big portion for a very good price. The icing was very bright and noticeably told the gender. Asheesh was so accommodating and kind and quick to work with. I’ll forever be grateful for this cake. I highly recommend him if you want a gender reveal cake or any cakes!

recently discovered this cake shop, and I'm so glad I did! From the moment you walk in, you're greeted with the sweet aroma of freshly baked treats and friendly smiles from the staff. The cakes are absolutely delicious — moist, rich, and beautifully decorated. You can really taste the quality and care that goes into every bite. Whether you're celebrating a special occasion or just treating yourself, this place never disappoints. Their custom cakes are stunning and exactly what you'd hope for when planning an event. Plus, they offer a great variety of flavors and designs to choose from. Highly recommended for anyone with a sweet tooth or an appreciation for top-notch baking. Can't wait to come back

I ordered a cheesecake with less sugar, my family like it and it is rich in cream cheese the crust in the bottom is a little bit hard, but overall is great.

I ordered a 3 layer chocolate cake for my friends 50th birthday. The sponge was soaked in a cinnamon cardamom syrup. It was topped with a decadent chocolate buttercream and ganache. It was beautiful and delicious and made with love. This cake was the talk of the party. I would absolutely order from Pome again

Got a variety of cakes to enjoy for a family birthday and they were so cute! I loved the fresh berry tart - it was light and tasty. And the presentation was spectacular! One of the other stand outs was the key lime pie- it had such a zesty lime punch I loved it and the hot green vibrant color just stands out all on its own. We also quite enjoyed the pecan nut & passionfruit tart - didn't taste much passionfruit but we liked that result anyways!

Good spot for a heavy meal! The vibes were great and the staff were super welcoming 💙 I had the pulled pork burger with mac and cheese on the side. Got a little overwhelmed of the texture from the burger—I wish it was juicier and more flavorful even without the sauce. But overall, still a solid meal! I got really full 😮‍💨 It’s a bit on the pricey side, but definitely worth it. Loved the sauces! Hope to try more MEAT

Located off of Whytes Road, this place is serving up some delicious local meats, from brisket, ribs, pulled pork, etc they've got it all. Their brisket was tender and flavorful. The pork ribs were smokey, and crispy on the outside but tender on the inside. We order a side of Mac and cheese and two large pickles. Both a great side dish that complement the meats. Service was superb, friendly and efficient! Perfect place if you're feeling carnivorous!

The name of the place literally says what they do best, MEAT. We ordered a lb of Brisket and Full rack of BBQ Ribs. Both of them are so flavorful, and we especially the burnt on the ribs. The burnt smells really good, is crisp, and fravorful. They also have 4 sauces you can add on your table, Bourbon, Cherry, Spicy, and Mustard. We tasted all and love the Spicy and Cherry. House salad is also very good and go very well with their meats. Highly recommended for smoked meat lovers.

Great place to come have supper with family or with friends. Excellent sharing plates of individual portions. Will be coming here again.

Food was okay overall. Everything was barely warm. Maybe would've been a bit better if it was hot. I think the least favourite item between all of us was the brisket. Very dry. 0 fat, tough, cold. The gravy kind of helped.

Warm welcome, impeccable service, reasonable prices. Just one downside: my BBQ pork ribs were too dry (see photo) Otherwise, I had a lovely dinner.

They do not disappoint. The brisket sandwich is delicious with ample yummy fries. The pork belly was great. I just had an order of ribs, that cherry sauce was so tasty. Can't wait to have some more.

This is my family and I’s go to restaurant for having a relaxing and fun experience. I’ve gone over 5 times now and I can easily say everyone should try it at least once Cav, the server I had every single time I’ve gone there for the last 2 years, is definitely my favourite server in the restaurant business altogether. She’s sweet and kind and always checks on her tables in a timely fashion despite the restaurant being busy almost always, never too much never too little and it’s always a pleasure to know she will be our server. Funny enough, whenever my mom comes into the restaurant, she hopes that it’ll be Cav serving her and nobody else. That isn’t to say nobody else is good, I can’t speak on any other servers, but definitely Cav is an elite level server. She also gave us cinnamon buns on the house on my mom’s birthday which made my mom really happy that day. As for the food, there’s just no complaints whatsoever. Everything tastes either good and delivers as expected or unique and nice. For example, the salmon has a mango sauce on top of it which adds a sweet kick that’s so refreshing and unusual. Their omelette and Benedict are both so good to the point where my brother and I share half an omelette and Benedict everytime so we can get to try both. Their idea of having the “veggies of the day” in the omelette is fantastic cause you never know what you’re going to get and switches it up everytime. They also make their ketchup in house which is very refreshing and tastes like marinara/fresh tomatoes. Definitely ask for it if it’s not already provided. I’m not aware if the chicken is halal so I stick to seafood and vegetarian. 8.2/10 - if you’re on a roadtrip to Edmonton for 3-4 hours, make this a stop for sure.

super delicious food! insanely huge cinnamon rolls that are perfect with coffee (only complaint, bit tough and hard to cut/split—but some difficulty is unavoidable at this sheer size) really loved the service, the staff were very friendly. it’s also a very charming location. i understand the hype!!!

We visited the Highlevel Diner on Saturday past and enjoyed it very much. We got there around 11 and had no issue getting a table. Our server was so nice! Very friendly and quick to take our order. I was surprised how quickly the food was brought to our table. I ordered a Breakfast sandwich (sausage) and my wife had the Got Beef Benny. While my Sammie was good, it was a little underwhelming. The one sausage link cut in the middle on a plain English muffin really had no taste. The hash browns were really soft and tasty. The homemade ketchup was very nice. My wife loved her Benny! It was appealing to the eyes and very tasty! I wish I had ordered it, but I can't do so much hollandaise sauce. Next time I will try it with the sauce on the side. Coffee was refilled often and it was great! I am very impressed with HighLevel Diner and will certainly return soon. Parking sucks, but that's the primary issue with the University/Whyte Ave. area. Sorry for the partially eaten meal pic’s!!

I love their wild blueberry pancakes 🥞 Their creamy spinach egg Benedict is super yummy 🤤 Service and ambience is perfect, highly recommend this place!

Highlevel Diner is a neighborhood gem. Their gluten free options are excellent and tasted great. As a weird aside, their homemade Ketchup is flavorful and delicious. You can actually taste the tomatoes. Sorry for the half eaten food pics. Lol. It looked so good, we dove right in to taste everything and only took pics after. Lol

For those seeking a superior, well-executed breakfast in an inviting and unpretentious setting, Highlevel Diner is a standout choice. This diner is highly recommended for its excellent food quality and charming ambiance, backed by professional and friendly service.

I am normally the anti-sauce crowd, so when my burger came with my condiments on the side, I was very happy. What blew me away was the homemade tomato sauce was delicious! Best condiments ever! Gelato was also lovely.

This place is fantastic! I came here with my friends for my birthday and it was a great experience! Our server Lauren was so friendly, patient, and attentive despite juggling so many tables! • The food was all fresh, and the portions were more than enough • The atmosphere was relaxed and organized • They gave us a free ice cream dessert for my birthday and it was enough to feed 3 people • The prices were extremely affordable • The service was fantastic, including the busboys/girls who regularly checked our tables to clear the dishes This was such a pleasant restaurant to visit and I’ll definitely be coming back!

The atmosphere is lively and welcoming, perfect for both casual outings and celebrations. The menu has all the favorites—tacos, enchiladas, burritos—served with bold flavors and generous portions. Their nachos are legendary, and the margaritas? Absolutely worth the trip on their own. Service is friendly and fast, even during busy times. Whether you’re on the patio in the summer or cozying up inside, Julio’s always delivers a fun, flavorful experience. Highly recommend!

Loved the experience here! It was really nice, we ordered shrimp, fish and beef tacos! The fish was the best one in my opinion and would recommend the most! I wished they allowed for pricing based on one taco only, I would order a bunch and eat a bit of everything.

If you're craving vibrant flavors, generous portions, and an atmosphere that feels like a fiesta, look no further than Julio’s Barrio Mexican Restaurant! I recently had the pleasure of dining here, and the experience was fantastic from start to finish. The grilled chicken plate I ordered was a perfect blend of taste and texture juicy, well seasoned chicken served over a bed of rice, topped with a dollop of sour cream, and accompanied by fresh guacamole, pickled onions, and cheese. The side of salsa added the perfect kick, tying everything together beautifully. It was both hearty and satisfying, ideal for a post workout meal or just a fulfilling lunch. But the true showstopper? The dessert! A massive, indulgent creation layered with strawberry syrup, whipped cream, a cherry on top, and dusted with cocoa. It was equal parts refreshing and decadent definitely a treat worth saving room for! The ambiance at Julio’s is upbeat and welcoming, with lively decor and large windows that let in tons of natural light, making it a perfect place to relax and enjoy a drink or meal with friends. Service was friendly and prompt, adding to the overall great experience. Whether you’re a fan of Mexican cuisine or just looking for a new spot to indulge your taste buds, Julio’s Barrio is a must visit. I'll definitely be coming back! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

This Mexican restaurant is truly a gem in the heart of Whyte Ave! It’s usually very busy, and you often have to wait for a booth, but this time we grabbed seats at the bar. The drinks were excellent in quality; however, I wish they had more mocktail options. The bartender didn’t really offer an explanation or ask for details when we inquired, so we ended up ordering a cocktail without the hard liquor. Despite that, the food did not disappoint—the beef tacos were absolutely delicious!

Three friends traveling form southern Alberta decided to choose this spot. It was very busy so we had to wait but only about ten minutes and there is lots to see in Whyte Ave. The barrio is pretty big so it was a bit noisy. Our waiter offered us drinks - of course margaritas were ordered. I had a frozen strawberry that wasn’t very good. Is should have chosen lime 🙃. They had a QR code in the menu that took me to a complete gluten free menu so it was easy to find something. I chose shrimp tacos with mango salsa and rice and beans. The dis has three small tacos but they were good. One friend had a chimichanga that was huge so she ate half and boxed half. The other ordered the steak fajitas because we guessed that is what smelled so good as we walked by. She said they were amazing and it was a large portion with five soft tacos and all the fixings so you could make them the way you like them. I would recommend it especially for a friends meal.

Julio's on Whyte is a solid spot if you're looking for good value, quality food, and a lively bar-style atmosphere. The portion sizes are generous for the price point, which is always a win, and the food quality matches what you’d expect from a casual Mexican-inspired bar and grill. Everything was clean and well-kept, and the service was attentive and friendly throughout the visit. Overall, it’s a great place to stop by for a casual meal, drinks with friends, or just to enjoy the Whyte Ave vibe.

We ordered Flank and Bison. Flank was very flavourful with very rich beef taste. Flank wasn’t melt-in-mouth kind of steak, but it was tender. I loved it very much. Bison tasted more chewy with more fat. My friend liked it. Alena was very friendly and knowledgeable. Service was top-notch! Highly recommend this place if you want fresh and high quality steaks.

Amazing experience right from the moment we walked in (smells incredible!) to the end of the night. The servers are all very knowledgeable, the food is amazing, the cocktails were awesome. We did the tasting menu and it was INCREDIBLE. I’ve personally never had a steak this good in my life. As major foodies who’ve tried many restaurants all over the world, this was a 10/10.

Great service. They are attentive and clean even the smallest of crumbs. The tartar does not stand out. The scotch egg was good. Most importantly the 6oz top sirloin (medium rare) was *tough*. It was a very big let down and was suppose to be the highlight because I was excited to try “Alberta beef”. Unfortunately, for such a well known restaurant.. I wouldn’t recommend to my friends.

Wanting to try one of Edmonton’s top restaurants known for its farm to fresh concept, we celebrated my wife’s birthday and splurged on the tasting menu. The restaurant is cozy and homey with comfortable atmosphere that’s small but not cramped. The staff is extremely professional and friendly and explained all the dishes. The wine menu offers a small selection of half bottles which is nice because like most fine dining experiences, all the others are in the $150-200 a bottle range which is not worth it when the meal is already $110 each. They also have reasonably priced local craft beer and various cocktails. My wife had a decent glass of a red wine from Greece which we didn’t even know exported wine. Unfortunately, the food itself didn’t “wow” me the way tasting menus should. It started with gazpacho which was quite good but may have been the highlight. Bison tartare was good but not great. Pasta was angel hair with a Taber Corn sauce. While I appreciate the notion of locally sourced seasonal food, creamed corn isn’t a good match for pasta and failed for me. The meat was defiantly a disappointment. In my opinion, smoked brisket is the cheapest cut of meat a fine restaurant might offer and it doesn’t belong on the menu if a $110 meal. While I don’t expect ribeye which they charge over $200 for, a tip sirloin or similar cut would’ve been appreciated. Served with charred kale and a large portion of what’s really baked beans, the main lacks creativity for my money. The dessert was just OK and should always stand out at the end of an expensive six course meal. No one flavor stood out and the raspberry sauce was way too minuscule to appreciate. Overall not a bad experience but for $319, I excepted one of the best dining experiences possible and if this it for Edmonton, we’ll save our money for European vacations. Sorry.

Michelin quality food for top tier high street prices. We absolutely loved it and fairly shed a tear at the thought we will never eat here again. Simply faultless. We ate a là carte and had the elk, bison, chocolate Swiss roll and cherry ice cream, as well as two wonderful glasses of Canadian red wine.

I'd like to state I am personally very critical of the food im eating as I grew up in a house of cooks and I myself can cook so I do judge food very harshly. my personal thing is "it should be better than my own kitchen". That said I did the road trip and I loved the experience of it and the presentation, it was wonderful. On the other hand the taste of the dishes yet unique and complex wasnt something that made me think "omg this is amazing". I understand this is for an experience, but the portions and taste to price ratio I just can not justify it, im sorry. In the end the service was amazing food was ok but nothing to wow me unfortunately.

Top quality food with top notch service and considering the cost of going anywhere these days, reasonable prices. Not cheap, but neither is the service or flavour. Absolutely worth it. Rob was my service. Hats off to his service.

A Flavorful Adventure at Tzin Wine & Tapas My wife and I had the pleasure of dining at Tzin Wine & Tapas this evening, thanks to a thoughtful gift card from close friends — and what an unforgettable experience it turned out to be. We opted for the “FEED ME” menu, where you leave your culinary fate in the hands of the chef (who has been crafting magic in Tzin’s kitchen for an impressive 18 years). Every course was a masterclass in flavor, balance, and creativity. From the perfectly spiced curry prawns, to the rich and tender duck, the beautifully charred steak, and of course, their iconic bacon on crostini — each dish was a unique and delightful journey. The service was warm and attentive, the staff and owner incredibly welcoming, and the cozy, intimate ambiance made us feel right at home. This is more than just a dinner — it’s a full sensory experience. Highly recommended for anyone looking to explore bold flavors, expertly prepared food, and genuine hospitality in the heart of Edmonton. Let me know if you'd like to tailor it further (e.g., more casual, shorter, or social media-friendly).

Truly one of the best restaurants in Edmonton. The service, the food, the atmosphere, all incredible. Kelsey is amazing , she is often the only server working but she always makes it seem effortless. Every dish here is delicious. My partner and I have been here many times and we have always had the best experience. If you are considering coming here for dinner or a special occasion, book it! You will not regret it.

Came here for the first time and we celebrated our 10-yr anniversary. The staff made it memorable, the food was superb (cod dish and bacon were our favourites), and the wine pairing with the tasting menu made us realize we need to up our wine game. Tzin has some great wine, and the staff is super knowledgeable to recommend the right choices. Looking forward to our next visit.

Wow! What a great dinner we had at Tzin. Amazing food (we had the surprise menu and it was so great) and our server who was the owner as well was simply so good and sweet. We had great talks with her and she was very knowledgeable about the wines. She also surprised us with different wines which was so fun. Highly recommend if you visiting Edmonton to go to this beautiful little restaurant where you feel the passion for this small business. We definitely will come back!

I got the 'feed me' option, their version of a tasting menu. It was great! Each dish better than the one before. Albacore ceviche: Good, but missing a bit of 'zing' Prawns in Vatavan sauce with Fennel: The warmth of the curry butter sauce contrasted perfectly with the tangy fennel. The prawns were also tender and a great vessel for the buttery sauce Succotash: Hearty, homey, comforting. Gnocchi, Bacon, corn, cream sauce Chowder-ey elevated with a Saskatoonberry glaze Sweet Italian Sausage with fennel pollen burnt peppercorn honey mustard: Tasty sausage, but a little on the dry side by itself. The honey mustard upps the ante. It adds the Juiciness missing from the sausage itself. The sweet and hot is a winning combination with pork and the fennel and herbs in the sausage add a great aromatic halo to the dish. Bison Meatball Pickled onions, house bbq sauce, creme freche, aged cheddar ranch. Warm, tangy, rich, creamy. The meatball is delicious all by itself and super juicy. The sweet and smoky bbq sauce complements the rich bison meat and strengthens the dish's warmth. The aged cheddar ranch ups the creaminess and umami yet again, but also adds a cruicial sharpness from the cheddar to balance the fat. The pickled onions are a 'cherry on top' adding a hint of crunch with a bit more zing. Bacon Crostini, maple apple glaze WOW Flavour explosion! Sweet and tart! Apple blast starts the bite off. Then as the tartness fades, the bacon's richness and smokiness comes to the forefront. The best bacon I have ever had! Lemon Curd Tart Freshly torched meringue, raspberry coulis, shortbread crust. As a dessert, Lemon curd tarts are hard to beat. They're up at the top with Tiramisu and innovative desserts like the hoja santa ice-cream at NOL. This is also a very good lemon curd tart! The tartness is STRONG as it should be and is reinforced with the raspberry coulis. All this tartness is balanced with the sweet and buttery shortbread and the creamy meringue. A great end to a great meal!

Easily one of the most enjoyable dining experiences I’ve ever had. The food was incredible (I audibly moaned more than once,) however, I’d go back for the atmosphere and welcoming staff alone. Looking forward to my next visit!

The place is very small and very tight but quite nice. One side of the standard seat is a bench with cushions and pillows. It is a bit dark as you come in but once seated it is fine. It's very small entrance door to find. At first I wasn't sure if I had come through the back. We did the recommend Feed Me / chef's choice option. Food is served one dish at a time. The best were the risotto (not on menu) and the pork belly with mushrooms sauce. We did not enjoy the beef steak as we are not rare or medium rare consumers. Did not think to mention this to the server. Not sure if we could have sent back to kitchen to ask for it to be more cooked. We also didn't think bacon on crostini was as special as the reviews raved about it. We ordered a glass of red and white wine. They gave us taste tests first with different red wine before we settled. We booked a week in advance for our seats on Open Table. It asked us if we were celebrating anything. It was for our birthdays. Nothing special was done except the server wished us. Service was good as they changed out our plates after every dish. They even store your coat for you if you want. They topped up our waters promptly. Explained the dishes to us. Helped us choose our wines. Cost $150 for 2 people. Very high end fine dining. Definitely for special occasions.

Honestly for all the hype that I always heard about this place, I didn’t think Workshop could live up to it but dinner here was a complete 100🙌🙌 As everyone says, you MUST try the arancini to start! The crispy brussel sprouts were also delicious and a great size to share. We tried two of their drinks which were alright, a bit more on the sweeter side than I’d like. All the mains were delicious, arrived timely, and offered a refreshing take on classic dishes. Bonus for the local souring they do and just how well the food BOTH tastes and looks awesome. Place is also a vibe and staff are friendly and accommodating! Definitely check this place out when you have the chance🔥

This was my first time trying out The Workshop Eatery. We loved the atmosphere and the service was top notch. I had the Smoked Short Ribs, this dish was a lot of food and the flavor was just right, this definately was this hit at the table. We also had the mussles, the flavor on this was very different, if you like spicy you might want to try this out. We decided to take home the cheesecake gor dessert. We both absolutely loved it! We want to come back and try more of the food! Great place!

Tonight we had the pleasure of doing the Chef's Table at The Workshop Eatery. It was truly amazing! Each plate was paired perfectly with wine, the entire experience was incredible! In a word... WOW! Note: I asked for reduced amounts of wine, the pours were VERY generous!

Heading into this place was excellent. My boyfriend and I came in without a reservation, not knowing Saturday nights tend to be pretty busy. We were able to sit at the bar and our bartender, Harry, was absolutely amazing. We had their pickle ceasers ($11 for 1oz, $14 for 2oz) as he noticed we loved our pickles, Harry even gave us extra garnish. Which made me even happier! As I create my own cocktails, the ceaser tasted exactly like my own, and I couldnt get enough of it. We ordered the Workshop Pickle Jar for our appetizer; it was fantastic, great selection of pickled vegetables. Although, I wasn’t too keen on the pickled mushrooms, they were interesting, just not my favourite. For our entree, we decided on the Duck Duck, and the Mussels. The Duck Duck had these sweet mashed potatoes, which was something I’ve never tried before, and I loved every bit of the flavours they created. As for the mussles, I couldn’t get enough of the sauce. It was so creamy. I could have drank it as a soup. But didn’t want to be so gluttonous hahahaah. Anyways, this place is definitely worth while, obviously on the pricer side but WOW. Definitely worth it.

The soup of the day was a tomato soup thing and was good yet a bit spicy. Our other things were good though. Our service was pretty good except she was a bit creepy to me yet she was nice over all would recommend good lunch spot.

Went here on a Friday evening and loved the vibes! Service is very welcoming and breaks down based on dietary restrictions. I tried the cabbage and my friend ordered the hen, both of us enjoyed it. The potatoe chips with the onion dips were also very delicious. Deifinitely would try this place For brunch! The peach cobbler cheese cake was so amazing. I love how everything is local And seasonal!

I didn't have high hopes for the lettuce wedge salad with chicken. Not was I wrong. The butter lettuce was crisp sweet, well assembled. The breast of chicken was what all chicken breasts should look like. Moist, substantial, grilled to perfection. The dressing was an appropriate amount, not swimming in the bowl. The lager hit the spot. First time here, and keen to come back

The customer service was beyond exceptional! Everyone went out of their way to make sure we were okay and having a good time. It was also my mom’s birthday, and the staff surprised her with a birthday card which was very thoughtful! For the food, the portions were good the taste was amazing. The burger patties were well cooked and moist, the buns were soft. Everything was easy to chew. Although the truffle fries were a bit greasy, it did not take away from the taste: I will definitely be recommending this place! Kudos to the staff!

Ordered 94’s chicken sandwich with their Caesar salad. Excellent choice for lunch- the bread was soft with a really well-seasoned chicken fillet, and probably the best part, it had avocado slices in it. The salad used real bacon, the lettuce was crisp, the cheese was sharp, and the fresh lemon wedge was a nice touch. Although I found the salad to be lightly dressed, it was great. Quick service, made it in and out within the hour for lunch time.

I'm from ontario and here for work. Was told that Lux steakhouse had the best steaks and that I needed to try it out. If I had to use one word to describe the food it would be INCREDIBLE!! Got the dry aged ribeye, the flavour profile was out of this world. Found myself taking smaller bites just to savour it more. For my side I got the lobster Mac and cheese and even though I normally not a fan of most Mac and cheese this dish is devine! The dessert and my espresso was fantastic as well. I found the staff super friendly and eager to help. And the atmosphere was super classy. Next time I'm in Edmonton I'll be sure to go again, as it was my best meal I've eaten out in a very long time. I'd highly recommend!!

I often heard my friends recommend it, but I didn’t understand why they were so excited about it. I decided to check if it was really so delicious there. And how shocked I was when I didn’t know what I wanted to try and they picked up food and drinks to my taste, it was a 10/10 hit 🤩 the food was very tasty, special thanks to the person who makes such wonderful meat, you have talent. The atmosphere is great, the staff is friendly, the chefs know their stuff and I’m sure they have a great future with such talent. I will now, like all my friends, recommend this place with such enthusiasm. I recommend coming and experiencing this combination of atmosphere with great food and pleasant service!

The service and food here is beyond amazing, I had just chosen to go here on a whim and it turned out to be the best steak place ever. The staff are excellent, we had personal conversations and the manager of the store had come to personally ask how our meal was. It was also my boyfriend’s birthday and they had gone out of their way to give him a personalized birthday card. Is it expensive? yes but for this quality of food and service I would have spent double. Also what steak houses aren’t expensive these days, I cannot explain enough how amazing this experience was. 10/10 We will come back every-time we’re in Edmonton. (also the oysters are BEYOND delish)

Return there for an after work social. This time sit in the Bar. Food is amazing, service is fast and pleasant. Had apetizer, a few drinks and a main after. All tatsts to the quality. Fresh ingrediant. My grilled salmon is salty to my palate.

Service was great. But honestly, the food was less than expected for such high prices. $70 for a steak that includes no add ons or sides, and honestly didn't taste any better than a $20 steak from the market. The sides all tasted good, but are pricey. Overall a disappointing experience for an upscale steakhouse.

When we arrived i bought some gift cards. Manager Catherine was a amazing to deal with and very polite. Hostess walked us to our table and asked if we needed anything which was also great. It was my birthday there was a bday card waiting for me, nice touch. Waiter Nathan was very helpful and easy to talk to as well as very professional. Great time and food was amazing The billy miners pie was a perfect meal ending Thanks

We four had dinner on a Sunday, with a reservation. Everything was great, particularly our server Selby. Our only comment is to mention that some tables are in the restaurant's 'walkways'. This means constant to-and-fro staff activity by tableside as they provide service to others - particularly if your table is 'centre aisle' as was ours. We very much recommend you ask for a banquette, or table on the side. A 5 Star experience, except the seating.

Came in on Tuesday happy hour, lots of parking. Food is good, service is good. Was going to sit in patio, but started raining, so we were siting in the lounge, which is very dark and the table is super small.

The service was attentive and friendly, adding to the overall positive experience. The staff seemed genuinely knowledgeable about the menu and wine pairings, providing helpful recommendations. While the prices were on the higher side, the quality of the food and service justified the cost, making it a worthwhile splurge for a special meal or celebration. Overall, The Steakhouse is a solid choice for those seeking a high-quality steakhouse experience.

It was a Friday evening so I called 30 minutes before we wanted to be there and thankfully there was 1 opening for the lounge area. I said I'd be there in 20 minutes and thankfully it was still reserved but they stuck us in the smallest little corner where people weren't even paying attention to us. A guy who wasn't supposed to be our server noticed we didnt have any menu's or anything and asked if we had been seen yet. He was an excellent server paid attention all around. If it wasn't for him I would've been disappointed. The girl that was supposed to serve us apparently got embarrassed that she didnt notice us so he took over. Again he was great. He did mess up 1 of our orders and forgot the mushrooms and salad with 1 meal but he apologized and they took it off the bill, brought us the mushrooms right away and asked if we still wanted the salad. My bf said no but I said yes as he got the salad meal for the mushrooms and I wanted his salad. So that was all good after and handled well. Again it was Friday and busy. We didnt get asked if we wanted another drink until after we were finished eating. Which is ok cause we didnt want to spend too much as drinks are also not cheap. He did grab me a water since I asked then. I was disappointed that my prime rib came out very rare in my opinion. They said they cook it medium rare which I wanted but it looked raw and rare. I didnt complain because I didnt want my bf to wait forever for me to eat. I am grossed out about it though. It was still good but tasted and looked too under cooked. Twice baked potatoe was good abit small but portion size of meats were good and better than we expected. So yoy really don't need much sides. I would suggest cheese in the twice baked potatoe, didnt seem like it had cheese. I also would have loved a little carrots or some veg with my meal. Since I had mentioned it was my first time the guy mentioned when taking our order to save room for a dessert on them. Their nice sized free dessert was good and light. Dessert wasn't a cheap size (Billy miner pie). Over all I'll go back for sure im impressed with the quality of food. I almost forgot drinks were good I ordered a rose from bc and bf average beer and also we had an appy of crab cakes which were small but absolutely delicious!! Came with a small salad which was over powering of vinegar i choked a little but was still good lol.

Amazing food, steak is always cooked properly. I’ve been going to this location for many years and I have yet to be disappointed. Even the kids menu is good!

Great service and steaks are always delicious. It’s always busy here however you will be taken care of. Management checked up on a few tables to see how people were doing.

Came here yesterday for the hockey game and my friends birthday. The service was great, our server was lovely, the atmosphere was fun and what not. Though the food was very mediocre for the price, 18-19 bucks for a poutine, 24 dollars for a pizza with literally just cheese, 18 dollars for lettuce wraps; uncooked noodles from a package with no protein, barely any vegetables. Our bill was 147 dollars I left and went to red swan down the street and got a large pizza with chicken ground beef green olives and cilantro for 15.50….

Went for an office party and the exclusive party area with the buffet setup and drinks bar was excellent. The bartenders were friendly and was full of energy even though it was long hours of tending to the guests. Loved their martinis and buffet food items.

It was DELICIOUS, I got the bad ass chicken, and would 100% recommend it. Great atmosphere, and if you skip out on the beer, you can keep your bill VERY reasonable. Definitely will be coming back next time I'm in the city.

Haven’t been to MKT in a while. Had the smokehouse brisket burger. Not bad honestly, the brisket had a sweet BBQ flavour and the onion rings were nice and crispy. Great selection of beer too. I’d come back again.

A lovely place with inside sitting options , patio and pretty nice . Definitely a beer place with some really nice vegetarian options . The server was really polite and friendly. Definitely looked into our considerations

Management reached out to me as the date changed for the event (dueling piano show), and even if it was a slight inconvenience they were super kind about it and went above and beyond for it to work for us and even offered us refunds if it didn't work, and free shots when we arrived. Staff were so sweet. I love MKT and I have been going for years for different company Christmas parties, to Oilers watch parties with friends, to coworker gatherings, to brunch with my mother-in-law. It's always been incredibly fantastic. I even joke that people probably think this is my favourite spot in the city since I suggest it so often (but it is haha)

I was looking for a venue for our elopement reception that was a bit more intimate, had good lighting and that could accommodate 80 people, I had posted in a wedding group on Facebook and the event coordinator for century hospitality group, Natasha, suggested the private upstairs space MKT has. I emailed right away and she sent over photos, menus and all pricing information I requested. The pricing to us was budget friendly enough for our wallet. Firstly the upstairs space is very beautiful, they honoured the look of the historic train station this business is in and the intimacy of the lighting and dark colors offer a romantic ambiance. The communication back and fourth over email with Natasha over the last months has been so prompt, and detailed and organized. She never missed a question that I asked and even went as far as counting stairs for me and measuring tables, among many other things. Ontop of this; the day of the event was so seamless, and the staff were amazing. David, the manager went above and beyond for us and the girls bartending and working our event never made our guests wait for drinks, and cleared food and tables promptly. The cooks and kitchen staff were so friendly and accommodated our food requests, thank you chef! Everyone was impressed with the food and service and that made such a difference for stress levels for us. The only con of this event space is that the upstairs is not wheelchair accessible, with no elevator. Just keep that in mind if you have guests with mobility issues. Thank you so much to everyone that went above and beyond for us!

Established food place off Whyte Ave. Food choices are limited, burgers, sandwiches and some shareable appetisers. All the food we ordered were quite good. Serving size way adequate. The MEAT donator was quite sweet and thus I was not impressed. The spinach dip was great. The specialty on the tap beer I ordered tasted watered down and lacked flavour. Service was great and the staff was friendly. Overall it was an okay lunch for me.

Cass was our exceptional waitress, she was beyond incredible and made us feel welcome. She was fun, kind, funny, and genuine! She gave us great suggestions, brought the food out so fast, and helped with anything and everything we needed. She was wonderful!! We are coming back solely because of her and of course the phenomenal dinner. Oh yeah, and the ambiance. We had the chips & dip (YUM!!); PB&J burger (IN-SANE!!!) and the chicken bacon Brie sandwich (can’t wait to eat that everyday for the rest of my life!!) We were eyeing up dessert but were stuffed! Will ABSOLUTELY be checking out brunch in the near future! 12/10 - would without a doubt recommend to a friend! Thanks The Next Act, see you again soon! 💜

Smaller restaurant but loads of fun, atmosphere was great, the food is soooo good! Handmade patties, the dill pickle soup was one of the tastiest I've had! We will be back for sure! The menu does change but that makes it exciting!

Haven't been there for a long time and tried it again during the Fringe. The place was packed and now I know why. The service was excellent. The food was delicious and prices reasonably well. The dinair sandwich is amazing but also all the burgers. The potato skins were delicious.. If you are on Whyte Ave and looking for a casual place to dine and have a beer or drink, try them out. The palace is a bit noisy inside when packed but that's part of the atmosphere.

Went here for the first time with my wife and we absolutely loved the food!! Both of us got the mushroom Swiss burger and shared the spicy mozzarella sticks with a jalapeño garlic sauce!! it was to die for!! Also 10/10 service!! Our waitress was very sweet and just awesome in general!

The food is amazing specifically the burger and their chicken sandwich! But it’s a bit loud inside! >>> An update for my last review: The food quality is still high. The side salad has become better. And the music volume is lower.

Great burger spot. Every item was served fresh and well made. The scout is a great burger, love the chimichurri sauce. The jalapeno dip goes well on the side with the fries. The nachos were a perfect starter for a group of 5, the cheese was perfectly melted. Definitely recommend this place.

Thank you so much for providing us the assistance with our Surprise Birthday Party and the amazing service. Natasha was lovely and a dream to work with. Our server Liz went above and above to assist with everything we needed. The food and drinks were exceptional!

A beautiful building in the Oliver district, close to Grant MacEwan. It is filled with windows and light. They have a massive patio surrounded by brick. When you step inside, there is a small seating area where you can wait for the hostess. A large circular bar takes up a good portion of the main floor and it is stunning. The wait staff is so friendly and welcoming. It has a very modern vibe with ironwork stairs leading up to the 2nd floor. The food is incredible and I highly suggest the Charcuterie. The wine selection is good. I went with a glass of bubbly and enjoyed my time at The Parlour Italian Kitchen. I will definitely be back.

We recently had the pleasure of attending a food and drink pairing event at Parlour, and it was nothing short of incredible. From the moment we arrived, the atmosphere set the tone for a memorable evening — warm, lively, and perfect for sharing with great company. The experience showcased epic cocktails, beautifully paired wines, and a menu of Italian-inspired dishes crafted by Chef Matt, drawing inspiration from his Nonna. Each course was thoughtful and authentic, with flavors that melded seamlessly with the drink pairings. Our group of 20+ attendees felt completely taken care of, and the service matched the quality of the food and drinks — attentive, friendly, and perfectly paced. The combination of Chef Matt’s culinary storytelling, the expertly designed cocktails, and the cozy-yet-vibrant atmosphere made for a truly special evening. Whether you’re going with a group or for an intimate dinner, Parlour delivers an experience that leaves you full, happy, and already planning your next visit. Highly recommended!

It's got a great vibe with excellent service from the staff. I recommend the cauliflower fritto as an appetizer, it was great for sharing among four people and tasted delicious. For pizzas, I enjoyed the 'you say potato', it had a subtle potatoey flavour that reminded me of Norwegian lefse, if anyone knows that. We also got the pollo alla diavola pizza, which came with fried onions on top. The onions looked great, but were rather soggy and chewy which was a bit disappointing. Lastly, we had a couple of ant issues, not sure if we were just unlucky or the building has some sort of ant problem. First there was a drowning ant in one of our waters when it was delivered to us, which the server sorted out quickly. Then later I found an ant crawling on my arm - I was resting my hand on the seat just before that, so I assume that's when it crawled on (FYI, we were seated inside, far from the entrance). I'm only mentioning it since it happened twice in a single meal. Overall, we still had a great time! I'd recommend taking advantage of some of their deals ($10 pizzas on thursdays, $15 pizzas during happy hour on weekdays from 3-5)!

Such a wonderful space. The kitchen needs some improvement. Our food came out way too fast. Gabby was awesome. Thanks for taking care of us.

Love it, so good, food is soooo good, tried the carpaccio, cauliflower, meatballs, and the chicken parm, soooooo good, me personally though for the chicken parm, I wish the chicken breast sat onto of the pasta not under, I think when it sits under it takes the “crisp” away from the chicken, it was still good but just a personal preference. The staff was really nice, wasn’t too busy, but the inside was beautiful. I will be back to try more !!

Food, service, atmosphere, all of the above. Celebrated a friend's birthday at Parlour and was very impressed. Our server was not only friendly and polite, but he actually seemed to enjoy interacting with his customers, furthermore, he took at least 7 orders at once and was accurate consistently throughout the evening. The food was AMAZING and the prices were very reasonable. The manager Josh who helped us with the booking was extremely professional and kind, and I'm honestly blown away, I haven't seen service at this level for a long time. 10/10 would recommend and absolutely will be returning in the future. Also there is ample parking.

We went to try their pistachio cake. I don’t know what’s the hype but it is just a normal sweet cake. Latte and ganache mocha coffee are just ok. Sandwiches have big portions and the beef and quinoa soup are just ok for me. The ambience is a little dim so if you want to have a low-key or quiet date on a weekday, this is for you. There are a lot of tables so there is a space for everyone. Parking is available on the other block and you can just walk to the cafe. They have vegetarian options as well.

A cozy, charming, and atmospheric place. They offer a wide variety of desserts and display beautiful paintings that you can purchase. However, there are a few minor issues that could be easily fixed. Occasionally, some of the tableware is chipped or damaged, which negatively affects the establishment’s reputation. Also, one wall looks terrible — it’s dirty and patched up with plaster in several spots. And I would also add some music 🙂

A huge variety of sweet and savory options; they make sure to state ingredients, in case of allergies! I ordered a blueberry scone with an iced Americano: the cashier was very accommodating and kind when she told me they told me they didn't have the milk option I preferred, and made sure to check with me on the level of milk they added afterwards 🙏 the atmosphere is beautiful, rustic and homey. Can't wait to see what this place is like in the winter!

The coffee is great, especially the iced coffee, and the atmosphere is awesome so good to drink a coffee and Cill, the gelato was not gelato it was ice cream and I don’t not find it tasty. The other food items are good tho! Would recommend and an awesome location.

This cafe was one of my favourite spots to go to back when I lived here in Edmonton. I had hoped that it was still here when I came back for a visit. The coffee was great as usual. Great ambience and location. 👍😎

Block 1912 is definitely a unique spot on Whyte Ave with a cozy, artsy atmosphere that stands out from the usual café scene. The food menu is quite limited, but honestly, I don’t expect a huge selection from a café. Personally, I go for the pot pie—it’s my go-to and always satisfying. They also have a wide selection of desserts, though after trying a few, I found most of them not quite to my taste. The vibe, however, is usually great; there’s often nice music playing, which makes it a pleasant place to hang out or catch up with friends. That said, the biggest downside is the pricing. Compared to other options along Whyte, Block 1912 is definitely on the expensive side, which can make it harder to justify as a regular spot. Overall, it’s a cool, one-of-a-kind café that’s worth checking out, especially for the atmosphere and a pot pie, but be prepared to pay a bit more than you would elsewhere

Got cake here for my birthday and it was delicious! Enjoyed the vibes. Would be great for studying or getting coffee with a friend.

Café Bicyclette is an absolute gem! From the moment you walk in, you’re welcomed by a cozy and inviting atmosphere that feels both rustic and elegant. The exposed brick walls, warm lighting, and charming decor create the perfect setting for a relaxed coffee date or a peaceful meal. If you’re looking for a café with great food, a welcoming ambiance, and a touch of European charm, Café Bicyclette is a must visit. Highly recommend and can’t wait to return!

Enjoyed a fabulous evening at one of their 5 course gluten free special dinner events. Everything was gluten free. The chef came out to introduce every course. It was such a lovely evening. Attentive serving staff. Food was amazing. Very farm to table, locally sourced. 10/10 would recommend. My spouse who is not GF enjoyed the evening just as much as I did. They also do a wine pairing with each course if that's your thing. We will definitely be back! Thank you for a great evening. This is such a hidden gem.

This restaurant/cafe is very charming. The food was amazing. I still think they make the best poutine you can find in Edmonton and one of the best I've had outside the city too. Good atmosphere, good service. Their outdoor area in the summer and fall is so cute!

First and foremost: their poutine is the best I’ve had in the city! It’s wonderful! It’s a beautiful cozy spot (with outdoor seating) to wind down for the afternoon! Staff are welcoming, friendly, and chatty. Free limited parking available by the adjacent lot (although I visited in the evening, during quiet hours) Keep in mind: during busy hours, it might be hard to find indoor seating!

My friend and I ordered the delicious salad d'ete with tofu. The lavender lemonade was nice. There was a jazz singer and musicians playibg at lunch. Fantastic. If I lived in Edmonton, I would be a regular.

My first time coming was just after touring La Cite Francophone for my wedding venue and we immediately fell in love with it. 1000/10 recommend the venue for any events, but it's also a beautiful spot for a date night (or date day!) The food is fabulous. I highly recommend the poutine (breakfast or regular) but you really can't go wrong with anything on their menu. Almost everything is gluten free too! The whole staff is bilingual and the place just oozes care for the community. I know from our wedding tasting that they work very closely with local farms and source a lot of their food locally. The staff also just clearly works together and supports and respects each other and it makes you feel like you're at home. It's such a unique dynamic. I can't wait to go back again and again!

We were attending a 7pm performance at the Fringe in the Service Credit Union theatre. We arrived at the restaurant at 5pm and were promptly seated. Our drink orders were taken and delivered. We gave our food order at 5:20. At 6 the server came by and said he had made a mistake in giving our order to the kitchen. He did not tell us when we could expect our food to be delivered and we did not ask him. By 6:15we knew our time was getting short to get to the theatre and we told another server we would need to cancel. She checked with the kitchen and they said the order was up. It was delivered at 6:20 giving us about 15 minutes to eat. Our original server never came back to our table and we had to ask other servers about our order and for our bill. The food was delicious but this was our least enjoyable dining experience in Edmonton. We would have preferred to provide our feedback privately but could find no way to communicate privately.

Absolutely delicious!!! My husband and I came here for our first wedding anniversary, very intimate setting and the food was amazing! The burrata appetizer just melts in your mouth… I couldn’t recommend the food more!

We celebrated my parents' 50th wedding anniversary at Riverbank Bistro, and it was truly spectacular! We reserved the restaurant and patio side, where we carefully selected a menu and drinks that perfectly complemented our celebration. The ambiance was warm and inviting both inside and outside, and the patio setting enhanced the entire experience. Each hand-picked dish of the high-end appetizers was delicious, and the quality and presentation of the cocktails, wine, and beer were impressive. The service surpassed our expectations – it was exceptional! Dan, the owner and chef, exemplified professionalism and made the planning process seamless, as well as the management of the party. We wholeheartedly recommend Riverbank Bistro for any dining experience or special occasion. You won’t be disappointed! Enjoy!

Had wonderful birthday dinner. Food was great quality, service was above and beyond, drinks were nice. Would love to come back in summer when the patio is open.

The food here is great. The atmosphere is dark and dusty. I wish there was more view of the river and the beautiful greenery! It would really brighten this place up and give it some charm.

This is a fantastic experience and is worth the drive from anywhere. We’ve been here multiple times and the food and service are amazing every time without fail. This is a must visit❣️

Excellent food, excellent service. The atmosphere could be a bit more intimate. The appetizers and main course were amazing, the dessert was good but didn't live up to the other courses. They could do with a larger selection of non-alcoholic beer and cocktails. Overall an amazing experience and we will definitely be back. Update: we had our anniversary dinner last night in the lounge. The atmosphere was more intimate and quite lovely. They have updated their mocktail menu and their non-alcoholic beer selection. We had mushroom bruschetta to start, which was lovely with a beautiful mushroom flavor. The sourdough from breadlove was top-notch. I had the fish feature, absolutely delicious. The flavors were just perfect. My partner had the pork schnitzel and said it was very good. The creme brule for dessert was also very nice. One of my favorite restaurants for quality and flavor while remaining affordable. I'm excited to see their winter menu!

The Riverbank Bistro is situated along a river, therefore has beautiful views. The atmosphere is very traditional, warm and friendly. The food was excellent, great value for the price. The only downside, the service was a bit slow, so I wouldn't dine there if I was in a hurry. However, the waitress was very accommodating and friendly. I definitely recommend it.

** NOW CLOSED FOR BUSINESS ** My opinion, too big a venue and there are better valued establishments directly located in the brew pub district to the west Original review below (Summer 2024): Met for lunch, first time, was most impressed by the venue itself. Hidden gem in the Ritchie area which I seem to be fond of lately. Wide open, airy room, lots of sitting options (patio, restaurant, cafe, bar seating), we sat in the restaurant. Food choices are sufficient, we all had sandwiches-wraps and all were exceptionally prepared. I had the "grass fed" beef tartare (suggested) a good amount of beef-already placed onto a toasted bun. One lunch friend had a wrap and the other, the Trout Bagel (he liked)! One had beer the other two of us coffee, drip only available served in restaurant, but . . . you can purchase fancier coffees in the cafe and bring to your table . . . . hmmm, . . . be mindful of this unique arrangement. I will return and partake of other offerings.

I have to admit, when my husband took me here for dinner I was like "really, bar food?", but that cannot be further from what this gem is! I was so pleasantly surprised by this place! I can't even describe all the flavors happening in my mouth here, it was truly magical. Let's start with my drink. I don't usually venture off and order cocktails, but the server recommended it so I thought I would try. I believe it was called bikini bottom? So good, I had 2. It almost tasted like an old fashion but sweeter and with gin (go figure). Amazing. Let's move on to the cucumber salad, also recommended by our server. I think this was my favorite part of our meal. I could have drank the sauce on it. Again, it's hard to describe so just try it and thank me later. It was amazing. So many flavors and textures. Brilliant. For our meals we had the chicken and pork and both were amazing. Will definitely be back.

The house chips were our favourite dish on the menu. When we saw that they were no longer on the menu we asked the waiter if the 'Chips & Dip' was the same thing and were told they were. What we received was not the same item. The Chips and & Dip were as thin as paper as opposed to the thicker House chips that were previously on the menu. It was disappointing to see the House chips replaced by what we saw as a straight downgrade. The other menu item we enjoyed was the Sourdough Nuggets. We were once again disappointed by what we saw. While the flavour and quality of the dish were still fantastic, the portion was noticeably smaller than when we had last come to Biera. The old portion had enough beer cheese to cover all the pieces of sourdough. Now there is barely enough for half. The saving grace of our meal was the Strawberry Kombucha which had strong hints of strawberry and had a perfect acidity to it. It was very disappointing to see the restaurant we loved fall off so hard.

Food was delicious. Would recommend sharing multiple plates. Portion sizes are a bit smaller and took a while to come out after ordering. Beer was also good and brewed in house. Move atmosphere. Update: went for brunch this time on Sunday. The food is different from your classic Brunch but still delicious.

I should say that before my experience today, Biera was already my favourite Edmonton restaurant. I first knew of them after Mai Nguyen mentioned them and Christine Sandford on MasterChef, and after dinning there a few times, I became a big fan. They are one of the very few restaurants in Alberta that not only understands and respects food, but also values sustainability in their use of ingredients. For example: they grind their own meat for the beef tartare, and instead of throwing the fat away, it is used in an emulsion served with the dish. Everything there is locally sourced and made in house. Their phenomenal homemade cultured butter and sourdough are some examples. I'm not a fan of getting salad at restaurants but I get the chicory salad every time: it's rare for a restaurant to use Belgian Endives and burnt orange that effectively (both have a bitterness). Elements in the pork shoulder dish are cooked perfectly, with the pork so flavourful and tender, the sauce adds to the pork but doesn't take away from it. I also don't often get steaks at restaurants but all the accompaniments that come with their steak make it SO worth it (you won't get better chips and jus elsewhere). The non-alcoholic drinks (house-made sodas and kombucha) are very reasonably priced (1/3 of the price compared to the average restaurant but is way better). Desserts are well-crafted and even though they look small, they are incredibly satisfying even to share. Not a lot of restaurants know how to use buckwheat in desserts, but they do! What I am most impressed by, is how the quality of their food, service and operation remains consistently great after Covid (when most restaurant struggled with quality) and after the departure of Christine in 2023. Now, onto today's experience. Two friends and I came in to dine. We ordered drinks, 2 main dishes and a small dish. While finishing the first dish, one of my friends got an allergic reaction. Him and I rushed to the hospital as our other friend Liam told us he’d stay and take care of the bill. When we met at the hospital later, Liam told me Biera did not charge us at all (the bill was probably $130+). They told Liam to not worry about it and just make sure our friend is okay, gave Liam the General Manager's contact info said they wanted to discuss how they can prevent incidents like that from happening again. They also packed and gave us the 2 main dishes, which is really generous. Thank you Biera, for every amazing experience I've had (I've had my birthday, anniversary there), for respecting what you do, and for being incredibly considerate. I will continue telling everyone about Biera and celebrate my special occasions there!

Really enjoyed all the dishes here. The cheeseboard paired great with the various sauces provided. The sample doodle of beers was nice to be able to try a number of their beers. Wish we had more people to try a couple more of the dishes!

What a gorgeous space - modern, rustic, industrial...so nice! Bright open space with lots of natural light and tall ceilings. Loved the vibe! I love how it's nestled in the middle of Ritchie neighborhood along with other local businesses. Service was excellent! I loved how the servers explained the dishes when they arrived at the table. The food was creative, innovative and had really great combinations of local ingredients. Loved that the ingredients came from local producers! While I loved all the dishes we ordered, my one small criticism is some of the items were a little on the heavy side for sauces (and some of the sauces were super vinegary and a little too salty). I found this to be the case for the morel mushrooms and lettuce on the chicken. I would definitely go back to for more but would probably tell them to go lighter on the sauces and less salt? Their meats were to die for though - the chicken was so well cooked (so tender, juicy, delicious!!) and their minute steak was the best steak I've ever had. Also the sourdough with housemade butter and whipped lardo was really tasty! You must try the sourdough ice cream and creme fraiche bundt cake! You won't be disappointed. SO GOOD! Biera also gave us the liquorice marshmallow because of the overly salty food - we really appreciated this kind gesture. Overall, Biera is a winning combination of creative dishes, fresh/local ingredients and excellent customer service. We will definitely be back for more!

I had a lovely brunch experience at this restaurant! We were seated right away by the friendly and professional hostesses who greeted us warmly. Our server, Dani, was super friendly and made us feel right at home during our first visit. Our food arrived in just 12 minutes, and it was delicious! My only little critique was that I wish the food was warmer. The house hash was kind of cold when it arrived and I think it would’ve tasted better had it had been more fresh. It also would’ve been pleasant to have more options on the menu. Especially more options with fruit in them for the brunch menu. :) Overall, it was a great experience, and I’ll definitely be back for more! In the pictures attached, we ordered the mushroom eggs Benedict, and the breakfast sandwich with avocado!

This is a cool spot that also doubles as a sandwich shop during the day. Their dinner menu is very much Italian inspired and their pastas are well made and large portions. The food is well made, the staff are super kind, and the prices are very reasonable. Good spot to grab lunch or dinner in the Strathcona area.

Went to Pip for the first time with my mom for brunch. The atmosphere is lovely, very modern and clean. Service was great, our server was very attentive and informed about the menu. I ordered a London fog and eggs Benedict. The London fog was lovely and rich, made with house made vanilla syrup. The eggs were perfectly cooked. I wished that the potatoes were a bit crispier and that there was more Hollandaise, but those are minor gripes. Definitely a great place for brunch.

Everything I had was delicious! The vibe was nice & the service was great. Perfect for a catch-up date with a friend. The whole experience was a 10/10. Can't want to come back to try other dishes. What I ordered: - Olives, House Marinated - Pork Schnitzel - Delicious. I want more! And if appreciate spicy, ask them for their house-made hot sauce. So good! - Haskap Margarita

I am in love with this place! The atmosphere is absolutely incredible, the service was top tier! Katie was our server and I couldn’t be happier. She was so attentive to every table she had while we were there. And the food was a 10 out of 10. The flavours were bold but not overpowering. Will for sure be making another stop in at Pip very soon.

Had a wonderful time here celebrating a dear friend’s birthday. The food, the service, and the atmosphere were just perfect. We decided we would each order something different so that we could share and everything was amazing. Can’t wait to go back.

Great little date spot! All the staff are very welcoming, especially Kristina, she gave us great recommendations and was super helpful. We had the patas bravas which were comforting and delicious. I had the tagliatelle, which had such well rounded flavours. Lemon zest and Parmesan really hit the mark for me. We will be back!

I think this place is fun to come with your friends and have a drink, I don’t think it’s fun if you’re really hungry, but that’s just my opinion, the food is really okay, also when we order the salad, it came with a whole chicken. I didn’t understand that. It’s hard to pick up the chicken if you’re eating a salad. The pizza taste good don’t get me wrong but it’s really just okay. I don’t know, I think the drinks here are better and the atmosphere and just the vibe. My favourite thing about everything I eat was actually the fries… The fries were very, very good.

Came mid-afternoon and got to enjoy anarchy hour which is like happy hour. It's amazing because 22.00 beef carpaccio was only $13 during anarchy hour and it was very tasty. I also wanted to try the shrimp with peaches but my friends didn't stay long enough but other people had it and it was quite delicious.

Just got takeout for the first time. Very unimpressed with portion sizes for the price we are paying. Do not even bother ordering the "Willy Wonky" as you will be highly disappointed. It is actually a laughable matter because how silly of a portion it is for the price. What are we paying $15 for when the dessert is the same size as my finger. You can have the cake for a couple dollars cheaper and be much more worth it in size, regardless of type of dessert. At a price like that you would think (and based off review photos for other desserts) its a decent/ shareable item. Even priced at $7.50 would be questionable. Super unsatisfied and probably wont be returning Edit: checked our mains a are missing our fries... either incorrectly ordered, or incorrect information displayed to the paying customers on the menu. Given wrong description and wrong idea, menu needs proof read. Or honour what is shown. Steak frites: steak and fries, says comes with fries in description. No other sandwich menu item has fries stated as staple food. Side would be chosen for any sandwich, including steak frites but not replacing fries. As per what the menu states. Or if thats not the case, have it reviewed and edited so there aren't errors and misinterpreted information

Very nice, casual lunch spot. The steak sandwich was perfectly done but just a tiny bit too salty. The Montreal smoked meat was a bit on the lean side but good. 4 stars because my recent visit to Schwartz’s can’t be beat! Enjoyed the fun mocktail and nice service. Great neighborhood option!

Wow!! What a great time. Definitely come here. The food way made with intention. Sooo yummy. Had the Ricotta to start and Chicken club. Really great cocktails too.

My goodness, one word: Amazing! Thank You Thank You Chris & Hannah Hostess. Best cheeseburger I’ve had in recent times plus epic company. See you again soon 👊

This was our first time here. I've always rode by on my scooter and always seen that it was busy. Finally decided to check it out. Glad we did! Awesome place to stop and have some patio drinks and some delicious food. Do they have a really nice patio it's a little bit small but if you're lucky enough to sit out there it's pretty nice. They have a decent happy hour menu and the food is great. Our server was amazing and very attentive. Everything was perfect for this hot day in Yeg! Next time we'll just park our scooters outside by the bike rack and come in to enjoy and relax! 😁

We were married at The Butternut Tree in May 2025 and couldn’t have chosen a better venue. Samantha and the entire team were incredible. They were highly organized, kind, and completely committed to making our day run smoothly. From planning to cleanup, everything was handled so seamlessly that we were able to just relax and enjoy every moment. The food was absolutely spectacular. We chose a tasting menu, and our guests are still raving about it months later. The cocktails were a huge hit too, the Alpine Meadow and mojitos were especially popular. Our late-night snack of poutine and churros was perfect (the churros were unforgettable!). The venue itself is beautiful, with natural light and stunning views of the Legislature. Having both the ceremony and reception in one space made the day so easy for us and our guests. What really set The Butternut Tree apart was the care and attention to detail. The team flawlessly executed the decor, were thoughtful with our guests, photography team, and officiant, and we even used the in-house pickles and preserves as game prizes! We are very grateful to Samantha, the Chef, and the whole team for helping make our wedding day magical. If you’re looking for an intimate venue that combines incredible food, beautiful views, and exceptional service, this is the best place in Edmonton to do it.

We had an exceptional experience at The Butternut Tree. Despite being very late due to unexpected roadblocks, the staff were incredibly gracious and accommodating, they seated us promptly and ensured we were still able to enjoy the full tasting experience without feeling rushed. Service throughout the evening was outstanding. The team was attentive, friendly, and checked in often, striking that perfect balance between professionalism and warmth. The ambience was elegant and inviting, upscale without ever feeling pretentious. We chose the tasting menu, which was beautifully balanced and well worth the price. Our standout dishes were the trout, scallops, broccolini, and beef, each thoughtfully prepared and bursting with flavour. We also ordered the beef tartare as an add-on, which was absolutely divine and a must-try for anyone visiting. A special touch that really stood out was the complimentary prosecco offered when we arrived, a kind gesture that made us feel truly cared for. The featured white wine pairing (Ritchie-something) complemented the tasting menu wonderfully. Overall, The Butternut Tree delivers an exceptional dining experience, refined, thoughtful, and distinctly Edmonton. Highly recommend, especially for anyone who values excellent service, warm hospitality, and memorable food.

We had the Chef’s Seasonal Tasting Menu and everything was incredible - we couldn’t choose a favourite dish out of the 6 we had! Loved every bite. Our server was lovely and super helpful as well. Thank you so much for making it a special night! 💕

The Butternut Tree was a dream wedding venue to work with. The setting is beautiful, and needs minimal decorations. The food and drinks were the most important part to us and they were executed amazingly. The service during the event was top notch. The planning process was very smooth, organized and fun! I really appreciated how quickly Samantha would get back to us about questions throughout the planning process. The set up and take down services were ideal for us, every little detail was taken care of and our friends and family were able to also enjoy and relax the entire day as well. We do not have anything we would change about our experience having our wedding at The Butternut Tree and we would recommend it to any couple who is seeking a elevated intimate wedding venue.

First, the negative: Parking is a nightmare. Give yourself time to park along the street or take an uber. I wish it was more convenient to drive there. Second, the positives: The food is delicious, the servers are friendly & fabulous, and the atmosphere is amazing. The views you get from the windowed walls are spectacular. They also have a private dining room that can comfortably fit 12 people and is a great options for business meals or intimate celebration events. I did enjoy the food, although I do think it is overpriced for what you get. I didn't love every single item we ordered, but enjoyed most of it. I do wish there were a few more options for meals to order, but I believe the chef adds/rotates the menu each season. They have a fabulous drink selection and the servers are very knowledgeable in that area. It is wheelchair accessible, but would be a bit of a journey to actually get inside (re: parking nightmare and then navigating a steep ramp and elevator, etc.)

My husband and I chose The Butternut Tree for our wedding venue in September 2023 after going for a dinner there. Our wedding was July 2025 and the whole process was absolutely perfect. Their coordinater Samantha was very communicative without being overwhelming. Day of they absolutely met all our of expectations with set up, switching between ceremony and reception, and over all just amazing service ! The biers for the background of our ceremony were lovely, the space was great for the ceremony of 50 seated guests. The food was absolutely perfect for our reception, the staff were friendly, the bartenders kept the line going quickly. From getting to curate your own menu to the little touches they add I can not recommend them enough. They accommodated all dietary restrictions our group had & communicated thoroughly to guests about their needs. We have also been for dinner a couple times and we have always been so pleased with our time there !

We just finished the tasting menu with wine pairings at the Butternut Tree ,and it was fabulous. Wonderfully prepared food, relaxed atmosphere and our server Luke, was phenomenal. We truly enjoyed our first experience here with their seasonal menu and highly recommend trying the tasting menu as an introduction to the restaurant. The view is a bonus to a wonderful evening.

Had a wonderful experience here, we love every single dishes and cocktails . Especially the tuna one. Also thank for our waitress for providing excellent service. She made us feel so welcome! Her smile and positive attitude made the experience even better.

Tried Bar Bricco, and it was such a wonderful experience! I had the housemade whipped ricotta with fresh bread — simple but incredible — and a half order of their ravioli pasta in sage butter sauce, which was perfectly rich and balanced. I topped it off with the Delavoye chocolate truffle, a beautiful collaboration with a local business that made the whole night feel extra special. The bar and wait staff were fantastic — super friendly and happy to share the story behind the restaurant. Plus, the wallpaper covered in different birds was such a unique, charming touch. Definitely recommend giving this place a try if you're in Edmonton!

Best food I’ve had in a long time!! Absolutely amazing service from both the waitress and bartender. My husband loved their olives so much that they gave us a small container to take home. I can’t wait to come back here. Best pasta I’ve ever had! And hands down best service! Thank you for making my birthday a memorable one.

Bar Bricco was a wonderful restaurant overall. We ordered the tasting menu for two, and it was very thoughtful of our server to ask if we had plans afterward to help pace our experience. The food was excellent, beautifully prepared, and full of flavour. Toward the end, the service slowed, and we eventually had to ask our server about the remaining courses. We understood it was a busy evening, but the timing caused us to rush the final part of our meal and request the bill together so we would not miss our show. Although our server did not acknowledge the delay, the quality of the food truly stood out. We would gladly return for the amazing flavours, and we hope for a smoother service next time.

There might only be a few food options but pretty much everything on the menu is fantastic and high quality. The prices seem a bit high but they're entirely justified. The place is a little cramped and loud as it's frequented by the after-work crowd in the late afternoon. That and the bathroom is at the end of a weird dark hallway and it isn't marked clearly. A bit confusing but I think it's by design.

The food at bar bricco is decent, the panna cotta dessert was a bit liquid but the other dishes were quite good. The egg yolk ravioli and the agnolotti were both perfect as usual. However the service was completely off putting. We were a table of five and ordered 14 small plates. Not once did our server come by to switch out cutlery or plates. This restaurant charges a significant amount of money for small dishes, which is not the problem, but for these prices I would except the restaurant to at least offer change in cutlery once or twice between 14 small plates. Secondly the waitress would come by take away our drinks but not ask if we wanted anything else. We would always have to flag her down and ask for another drink. It was also very strange to see her laughing and joking with every table but was quite stand off ish with us. We had asked for our check and it took 10-15 min to get it to us, we saw her laughing and joking around with a table, and then when we finally got our check it was a very curt “thanks” and just walked away. There was also an extremely obnoxious table in our area that was screaming and speaking so loudly, even after they had cleared the table they hung around our table speaking so loudly and continued to be obnoxious and disruptive. None of the employees managed that, they just allowed it to happen and didn’t even come by to apologize for how disruptive the behaviour was. Maybe they didn’t notice but it created a really unpolished atmosphere. Unfortunately this was not a great experience for us.

Great service and thoughtful recommendations for drinks and food options. Highly recommend for an intimate dining experience

Love the concept and most of the execution of this restaurant. The food was generally good with the exception of the tartine and rillettes dishes. They do arrive already spread onto the toast, which a fine, but the versions on the night we where there where every sparse on the accompanying toppings. For example, the huge piece of bread had a good amount of the whipped chicken liver tartine, but only a couple of pickled cherries. This just made it kind of useless. When you actually had everything together in one bite it was good. Would have been better to have the items more chopped and dispersed if you are going to pre do it all in the kitchen. That being said, the gnocchi was good as was the broccoli. The pan roasted hen, 5 spice rub, mushrooms, tamarind & miso butter was probably one of the best things that I have had in awhile. I was more than happy that it came with mushrooms instead of the green beans it showed on the menu.

Positives: - nice ambiance. - chicken skins, bread with dill butter, chicken liver was very good. Would definitely order again. Okays: - tar tar is a staple anywhere I go. Their bison tar tar didn’t look appealing when we received it, I think it was the layout. I’m used to tar tar stacked and this was spread out on the entire plate and I found the chunks too big. If you’re trying tar tar for the first time or are sensitive to texture, I wouldn’t recommend. - steak. We asked for medium rare and we received in our opinion medium. We order steak everywhere we go and we know medium and medium rare. We did ask for the steak to be cooked differently and when they brought it back it looked the exact same. We did take it home and it was good in flavour just wasn’t cooked the way we wanted it. I would still recommend the steak. Meh: - we had our reservation for opening (5pm) and they quickly ran out of the beer we liked so that was a little whatever. - I asked for a michelada and they put the Caesar rim on the tall full glass of Clamato and had the beer in another glass with no rim…. - had a dirty martini and my glass was not polished, there were water stains on the entire glass and a couple of floating specs in my drink (I did not mention anything as this was my first drink and first time there and didn’t want to be annoying, but it all added up) - upon ordering appetizers I mentioned the chicken skins, bread, chicken liver and tar tar all at once, our server only punched in the bread and then when it was brought to our table asked us if we wanted more…. She told us it was her bad for not ringing in the other items. Fine, totally fine but, there was so many opportunities for her to step up on her service but, she didn’t. Overall, the food was good, service was meh and I might come back here but not for anything special. Just a quick bite.

Here’s a fun, playful foodie-style review you could drop straight onto Instagram: --- ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Soft boiled egg that was a little taste of the good life, fluffy gnocchi that felt like little clouds, crudo that was straight-up perfection, and a nectarine + tomato salad with goat cheese custard that tasted like sunshine and decadence. Oh, and the steak? Total main character energy — done to perfection. Bündok, you’ve officially stolen my heart ❤️

Food was good but service was excellent. The gnocchi came out and it was clearly oversalted, the server apologized right away and took the dish off our bill. Would def come back again. The fried chicken skin and tartare were my favourite.

Cute little restaurant not too far from Grant Mac. Reason we chose this place was for the good reviews on the liver pate and they did not disappoint! It is a sharing plate restaurant which we knew before going and were quite happy with as we were able to try a number of dishes. From start to finish, each dish was so good. Our hostess/waitress was very friendly and prompt. We had a reservation in case there was a lunch crowd but we were the only ones there. Probably still a good idea to have one just in case. Hard to say which dish we liked the best - definitely try the parmensan soup and smoked olives...and of course the liver!

Disappointing Dining Experience at Bündok My wife and I dined at Bündok last year, drawn by its inclusion in the Amex Platinum card’s international dining benefits from Singapore, which covered $200. We ordered several dishes, including cocktails, soup, beef strip-loin, roasted chicken, and chocolate cake. Unfortunately, the experience was highly disappointing. The service was subpar. The bartender, who also served us, spilled a few drops of soup on our table while serving and neither apologized nor cleaned it up. The food was equally lackluster—the strip-loin and chicken were dry and flavorless, and the chocolate cake tasted stale (1/10) To make the matter worse, the bartender who also served us rudely approached me to relay a complaint from another table about my footwear (Crocs) and posture, which felt rude and unnecessary. Another server (our main server) kindly apologized for their colleague’s behavior, but it didn’t salvage the experience. Spending over $200 for mediocre food (1/10) and uncomfortable service was frustrating. We won’t return.

Long week this was just what we needed!! Tayler was an outstanding server, made our night!!! , we let her chose the dishes!!! Top score on the food! Great wine and 0 alcoholic drinks for me..Nice to see!Beyond 5 stars. Great lil patio very inviting

I’ve been coming to this Doughnut Party location in the brewery district for years, including when it was located in its former spot just north in the Oliver area. Back then, you would have had to get there early early because donuts would sell out by noon or 1 PM. This location is opened earliest and they do stock later into the day. The store is bright, clean, and full of personality—the brand is smart, creative, and totally dialed in. But of course, it’s the donuts that keep people coming back. These aren’t just donuts—they’re mini cakes shaped into donut form, each one packed with flavour and fun. The variety is there usually, and while they are definitely sweet-that’s exactly the point . . . it’s an occasional treat. Grabbed a few for a road trip up north through Alberta today—pretty sure the clients up there will appreciate and have more than a few sweet things to say.

As I was getting out of my car to enter another store, I could smell the baking of doughnuts! I followed my nose and it brought me to Doughnut Party! OMG!! As I walked in for the first time, I just melted with the aroma of doughnuts being made. So many to choose from. I got 2 glazed, 2 knotted and coconut! I had to put them in the back seat driving home, otherwise there wouldn’t be any left. I never went to the other store! Go check this place out. Mornings are best!!

We stopped by here for a sweet treat after having lunch nearby. There's a bunch of parking available in the plaza. They have a bunch of options available, everything looked so delicious and tasty. We just got one doughnut: the Summer Fog Long Jane. It had a strawberry and earl grey glaze on top. I was intrigued by it so we got this and it was delicious. The glaze was light, sweet, and flavorful. I love anything earl grey and it was wonderful. However I feel like I tasted a little more strawberry rather than earl grey. It would've been nice to have the earl grey flavor pop out a little bit more. The doughnut was great nonetheless. But what really surprised me was the doughnut dough itself. It was light, chewy, and unlike other doughnuts I've tasted before. It reminded me of desserts with a mochi-like consistency. Maybe they add a little bit of mochi flour in the dough, or something similar to that. Whatever they put in that dough is magic because it was so delicious. We only had space for one doughnut haha, but in the future I know we'll order more.

Always a treat to get donuts for my coworkers. You can’t go wrong with their rotating flavors. I think they’ve got the best (and biggest) apple fritters in the city. These are always a hit with everyone. Great spot for a sweet treat!

Delicious, giant fresh made doughnuts. Love the rotating flavours so there is always something new to try. Highly recommend if you need something for next sweet tooth craving.

Our favourite doughnut shop! Would recommend pre-ordering online and picking up in store to ensure you get the ones you want - they sell out fairly quickly! Great flavours and always fresh - definitely a must-try.

We had Doughnut Party doughnuts as favours for our guests after our wedding! They were absolutely delicious, most guests enjoyed them the next morning and sent us pictures of them with their morning coffee and doughnut- which was super fun for us. The staff was very helpful when we were communicating with them about this months in advance; and pickup was a breeze for my brother and sister in law the day of the wedding. I wanted to have all of my favourite food on my wedding day so of course it had to include Doughnut Party! This was a really nice touch to finish off our wedding day and we are so glad we decided to do this for our guests!

LOMA is for sure the treasurable vegetarian restaurant in Edmonton! Once you taste the food, you can really feel the chef’s heart in the dish. Me and my husband ordered the fried mushroom as our appetizer. Also selected beef fried rice and vegetarian sweet and sour meatball bento as our main courses. Bento comes with the refreshing jasmine lemon green tea. I could say here offer one of the best fried rice in Edmonton! Everything is tasty! We keep some items which we will definitely try next time! LOMA will not go wrong❤️❤️❤️

The food tastes authentic, but the portions are comically small. Photo 1 is “10 dumplings”. For how easy it is to rack up a large bill here, they don’t give you much. Also, much of what was listed in the regular menu wasn’t available for take out. We were disappointed and will continue looking for our go to veggie resto in Edmonton.

We’ve been twice and had wonderful food both times! The gentleman serving is very kind, and the whole environment feels very welcoming. I would recommend everything that I’ve tried. Vegan dim sum is hard to come by, too!

Best vegan dim sum EVER! This place is an absolute must visit spot! Everything is so delicious and fresh and the owner is super friendly!

Such a cool place! I am not vegan but man... some of these dishes really make you wonder why you aren't. Vegan dim sum. I love the play on all the textures and the time taken to carefully prepare the food. Favorite highlights were the steamed buns with crispy tofu and pickled coleslaw. The tempura enoki mushrooms were stellar as well. This place also has a great selection of teas ranging from light floral teas to heavier green teas!

My first but definitely not my last time eating here. Everything was so flavourful, fresh and warm. Great change up if you want to give some savoury and spicy flavours a try and would never guess there was no meat! I ordered the vegetable soup, rainbow fried rice, veggie BBQ bun, veggie pot sticker and vegetarian sweet and sour meatballs.

I can't express how great this restaurant is! The food was delicious and flavorful - was pensive going in but wow they fully impressed. We had the daily special, it came with soup, a main and a dessert. We were a bit hungry so we ordered wontons and pot stickers as appetizers. EVERYTHING was delicious! There was great flavor profiles and generous portions. The Oriental Beauty tea blend was a great accompaniment to the meal. We loved their teapot so much, we bought one on our way out! The server was super friendly and the owner was very personable and helpful. Give them a try if you are looking for an awesome vegetarian Chinese experience!

Buyer aware. Food quality is great, but you will be overcharged over 27% and you won’t get the order you paid for, but something cheaper and similar. We ordered Skawee Deluxe in sliced pizza box, Zaatar Deluxe, sausage and yogurt (2). Paid $28.27. Instead we received Skawee in sliced pizza box, Zaatar and Meat Pie… plus yogurt (2). All worth of $22.21 total. The establishemt extra profit of $6.06 (27.29%). Lesson learned: open your packaged food before you drive far away from the North End of the city. I have supporting photo evidence of this fraud.

This place is even better after the renovations! All the food options are always amazing…there is nothing I don’t recommend! Since the renovations they now offer whole rotisserie chickens with all the fixings, beef shawarma sandwiches, take home hummus, baba ganoush, garlic sauce, falafel and mini fatayer trays!! The store is always clean and the service is always welcoming, friendly and generous!

Great place to stop for a bite to eat! Friendly service and everything is so delicious! The nuts selection is awesome too! Definitely always coming here when travelling to the north side of Edmonton! 😊

Clean and efficient food services. Staff is helpful. Authentic Mediterranean cuisine. Their rotisserie chicken with garlic sauce and pickles is super delicious. Check it out, and you'll keep coming back for more.

I have been visiting this place for about 15 years they have very affordable halal food ranging from zaatar a delicious blend of spices and seseme seeds on a fresh baked pita to meat pies and shawarma this place never disappoints today I’m having loaded Zaatar with tomotes cucumber fresh mint leaf’s and olives absolutely delicious . I would recommend this to anyone who wants fresh delicious, quality, affordable halal food.

Shawarma lovers, look no further. Alex's chicken shawarma is the best my entitled tastebuds have ever had. How is it this good? The first bite brought me back to my first properly grilled steak with the grizzled fat. Yes, grilled steak. That first bite. Hmm mm.

If restaurant is closed for orders 30-40 minutes before the posted time on google, at least be nice while telling that to the customer who had come, thinking it is open. Lady with glasses, on seeing us entering, very rudely told we are not open!!. Be nice, as you are not going to be forced to take the order. I have been a regular customer but will not visiting anymore.
