Best Restaurants for Local Ingredients in Halifax

I’ve been visiting Halifax for 20 years and lived here for almost 9 years. I’ve eaten in most high-end restaurants in the city. The food and service at Tribute were easily the best I’ve experienced in Halifax.

Everything was excellent. We thoroughly enjoyed all courses of food, as well as the service and the ambiance. Highly recommend and will return.

The service was excellent and food well presented and delicios.

First time dining at the Five Fishermen in Halifax. We are visiting from Saskatchewan and had always wanted to spend an evening there. Our experience exceeded our expectations. The ambience was amazing. Kristen - our waitress - was wonderful. We had 2 Celiacs (must eat gluten free) at our table and she really went above and beyond to guide us through the menu and ensure that our meals were prepared safely. Most items were gluten free. We shared 2 appetizers between the 4 of us. For our main meals - and because they were out of fresh lobsters - she had the chef create a lovely gluten free lobster and scallop risotto for two of us - which wasn't on the menu...but was fantastic. The men had steak and a burger. I had a glass of wine and the men had 2 draft beer each. For $249.99 plus tip, that was a great experience and more than worth the cost. If I could rate this place 10 stars I would. Highly, highly recommend. Will return the next time I'm in town. Cheers from Saskatchewan!!

Truly world class service and an exceptional culinary experience that enlivens all your senses and brings you joy. I’ve been hosting guests here for over 10 years and each time our experience is extraordinary, consistent and pure delight.
