    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!!

    My pregnant wife and I went to EDNA with two other couples for an evening out. The food was so good, that immediately following the meal, my wife started her labour. After paying the bill, she thought it might be best to go to the IWK as she had started feeling contractions. By the time we got there, the hospital staff noted that the baby would be coming any minute. And so our second daughter was born shortly thereafter. It was an incredibly smooth and easily delivery with no complications. Mom and baby are both doing great. Thanks for the fantastic meal and memorable evening out EDNA!
