In Provence, a region in southeastern France, “Lou Pécou” is the term for the peduncle, or stalk, that holds a cluster of fruit. Our grandparents taught us that when in the kitchen, you must start with the freshest and finest of ingredients. They had a unique way of feeling and picking lou pécou, to know if the fruit and vegetable is local, ripe, and fresh. We look forward to passing you these traditions and learnings through our pizzas.At Lou Pécou, you will find exclusive finely curated dishes with a Provençal touch, a wide range of organic and biodynamic wines, signature cocktails, house-made desserts, and much more!

Best dining experience we’ve had in a very long time. The wood-fired and local inspired menu reminds me of Michael Smith in stead of Fortune Bay, you are nestled in the vibrant urban on the banks of Halifax Harbour. The service is second to none. I predict that Tribute will make a very successful mark on Nova Scotia’s culinary landscape.

This is a small restaurant so it doesn't feel like a big busy restaurant. I had the salad special which was different from everybody else's salad and was very good and the same thing goes for my pizza. I specifically went because I had heard that the gluten-free pizza crust was excellent. I'm here to say I've never had a gluten-free pizza crust that good. Actually it's not gluten-free it's gluten-friendly because it's cooked in the same kitchen with all the other gluten pizzas.
