Really tasty brunch spot! It's not a big place so you can make a reservation to make sure you'll have a spot. The shakshuka was really good, also the donair breakfast.

Stopped here for brunch - interesting menu for a brunch place - Eg Korean dishes along with your typical chicken and waffles. I really liked the food and the service was great. The portions were a bit small but a lovely visit nonetheless.

David is fabulous. Tasty snacks and a low key atmosphere. Definitely make this a stop of yours

One of the best meals we have had in a while. The kimchi poutine was such a great combination and the donair gnocchi was so flavourful. Great service and cool atmosphere. Can’t wait to go back.

Stepping into this restaurant was a pleasant surprise, highlighted by the charming presence of our server who sported the most remarkable moustache I've ever seen. This iconic facial hair seemed to perfectly encapsulate the wholesome and inviting atmosphere of the place. The service was truly outstanding, with our moustached server exuding warmth and attentiveness throughout our meal, making us feel like welcomed guests in a dear friend's home. As for the food, the appetizers, especially the hummus with donair meat, showcased a delightful fusion of flavors, while the burgers and fries offered a satisfyingly classic main course. The carrot cake dessert was a standout, delivering a comforting and flavorful finale to a genuinely enjoyable dining experience.

We went for brunch. The food was amazing. I had the eggs Benedict, the best I've ever had.
My friend had the seafood arancini, 5 days later she is still swooning. The service and atmosphere were as good.
Only thing.too much food.

Had the traditional breakfast. 3 eggs Sunnyside up they were perfect. Very inviting place. The service was friendly. I need to go back now that their patio is open.

First time here, but I suspect I will be back. Amazing ambiance. Many great options, and great price point. Parking can be tricky but it’s worth taking the time to find a parking spot to get to this place. Looking forward to trying the Donair Gnocchi and carrot cake next time. Our server was attentive and really outgoing.
Keep up the good work to all of you!

Meals are so tiny and expensive. I ordered lamb turned to be 98% pasta rest is sauce and lamb aroma.

Grabbed a quick bite here and enjoyed their homemade kimchi! The lobster arancini was a tad too sweet but still pretty tasty. Service was great too:)

We tried as many things as we could on the menu for much and shared them all! Everything was wonderful! Don’t miss this one! It’s been the best food we’ve had all week.
26 July 2022 2:02
We stumbled on this place by accident and could not have been more thrilled! Everyone at the table loved their dishes and the customer service was amazing!
12 July 2022 14:13
Stopped in at the invitation of the sign out front to check out the new bar. Great drinks, amazing oysters, and a great visit with David at the bar and Chef JF. Highly recommend - these guys care!

Made an account just so I could leave a review — it was that bad!

We were drawn in on the promise of a renovated space with a new bar, new menu, and new cocktails.

If I am being honest, it felt as if they were only open so they could prep for the week ahead and providing service was second priority.

The atmosphere was terrible, the cocktails tasted as if they were made from bar mix, and the food was mediocre.

Food was great staff was so friendly and was a really nice setting had the chicken waffles and the chicken was sooooooooo good

This is by far my favorite breakfast stop in Halifax. The food is so fresh and tasty, the staff is super friendly and it has a very cool atmosphere. I need to check out lunch amd supper here soon. Definitely put this restaurant on your list of places to go, you won't be disappointed.

The food here really talked to me. Bursting with life and flavour. I had the lamb gnocci and calamari. The waitress was amazing.
18 April 2022 8:49
Super friendly server and lovely that the chef came to check in as well. It was a cute, cozy environment and great food! I had the French Onion Burger and my father had the Jambalaya, Calamari starter and cannoli dessert - all were delicious and flavorful! Will definitely be back.:)

We ordered the shakshouka, chicken and waffles, and mimosa flight for about $80. I will say that for the price paid, the food did not live up to expectation. The waffles were not fluffy enough and the cream on the chicken is a bit unflavored. However, the place is crowded and seemed really popular.

This is a great place to go if you're looking for something a little bit different but also a little bit familiar The fries are amazing, The drinks are great and the service is excellent. I really want to go back and try brunch.

Amazing eggs Benny. David was very handsome in those sweet glasses. He revived us from our Saturday night. Great atmosphere.

Local or just visiting? This place is a must visit. Brunch, lunch and dinner! 6 s! Nothing like in NS.

Restaurants in the area on a sunday evening were full so we selected this one as we were starving. Ordered the mussels and calamari. Both were excellent, although servings are on the small side. Waitress said it was a lb of mussels, though was only 1/2 lb. The broth was excellent, cooked with pork served with French toast. If you're really hungry you may need to order 2 meals. No happy hour here which was disappointing. The chef was friendly and came by to say hi.

Just walking by, it looked a little sketchy but what looked sketchy was really intimate and comfortable. The food was amazing, including the dessert, and the chef easily accommodated our dietary needs of gluten and dairy free. Easily as good as, or better than, any of the 'higher end' restaurants nearby. If you like great food, great service and cozy atmosphere, this is a place you need to try.

We just had brunch there over the weekend on a short trip to Halifax. Oh my god, this is probably the best brunch place in Halifax. You have to try the Chicken and Waffles or the Donair Eggs Benedict. I wish I could have brunch twice in one day.

Good food. Pleasant staff and a safe feeling atmosphere that is enhanced by the foods wonderful aroma and the wonderful people working there

We really enjoyed the atmosphere and the food was great - it is a nice mix of different cuisine.

Wonderful experience all around! Amazing Chefs, Waiters, atmosphere, location, and of course flavours and textures that I've never experienced elsewhere! I highly recommend making a reservation since an evening at this restaurant is in high demand. Also.the desserts are creative beyond measure

I hope to visit here again soon!

A delightful evening filled with great food and excellent service.

We had an enjoyable evening dining at aFrite. While it’s a little understated, the food and service here are well worth the visit. We dined in a number of Halifax restaurants on our trip, and aFrite rises into the top ranks for friendly, down to earth service, and delectable food. JF is the head chef, and he made sure we were good with our meal, checking in from time to time. Our server, Eliott was a delight.

All of our food and drink choices were terrific- so grab anything off this menu- you’ll be happy with your choices.

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED

Came for brunch a few weeks ago. Only 1 server who was run off his feet. That may have been the reason he did not bring us even water for 20 minutes and only after I finally got up to ask. It was only 2 min later he brought our food. He did not bring our drink order of mimosas for another few minutes (25 min after our order). That maybe should have been a red flag as they were warm and frankly not good. Flat cheap sparkling wine with a dash of pomegranate juice does not make a good drink. So while the food itself was just okay, we won't go back. There are so many other great food experiences in Halifax.

Blown away at the excellent food. Full of flavor and delicious! Each dish is well thought out and makes you yearn to try more.
Our server was so very nice. The chef was top shelf. We will be back.
6 out of 5 stars!

Menu original. Le meze board est un must a essayer. Le chef fait le tour des tables pour rencontrer les clients. Service courtois et sympathique.
26 August 2021 16:15
Adventurous and eclectic food that hits the mark. The quality and execution will bring me back again.
