    Such a great dining experience. The food is incredible, but the cocktails might be even better

    We are from south Edmonton so we don't get to St Albert very often. We decided to stop for lunch at…read morethis corner cafe in downtown St Albert. We were handed a brunch menu so it might be different on weekdays. My partner and I both ordered the Shakshouka mainly because it sounded so unique. I'm glad we did try that dish because it was unlike anything either of us has eaten before. It's a mix of bread, tomato sauce, eggs and other good things. Delicious! Service was friendly and prompt. We parked on the street nearby in the 2 hour zone. I don't know if they have their own parking out back. The washrooms seemed to be clean, and featured reusable washcloths instead of paper towels. Tryst definitely has guest WiFi that is password protected but I didn't try it out. If you are passing through St Albert I would definitely recommend Tryst for lunch or brunch.

    I am very thankful because they held our table because we were half an hour late for our…read morereservation due to circumstances we couldn't help Small place, which is fine. i wish they would do their seeting better. For a place to enjoy wine and appy the seating is literarly a pain in the ass. The whole thing is to make a comfortable experience. It is hard to enjoy your flat bread when your ass is sore. Just get some decent chairs for crying out loud. However they insist that there is a time period for you to get in and get out. So maybe they make seating uncomfortable so you get going. That is why they loose one star. Food was lovely. Service was good. We each had a unique cocktail. This was well executed. Food was great. There wasn't a standout because everything was amazing. We ate a whole lot of things. Really loved the most simplest of dish which was the sourdough bread with whipped butter. It was lovely. The bread was chewy and had amazing texture. We also loved the ricotta gnocchi. It was pluffy and flavourful. The fish of the day was delicate and tender. Beef Carpaccio was tasty and interesting with lack of a better word waffle fries ontop. And the beef and cheese was rich. The only thing that we didn't love on the menu was the lamb flatbread. Too many pickled radish on top took away from the dish. However, I think anything you order here will make you happy. A little pricey but again it is a well saught after place. And much cheaper to other places that are in chains that won't give you the same experience. I would definately go here again. But make reservations. The place was jammed packed.

    We visited Bodega on Whyte Road with our baby & our team. We tried to arrive a bit earlier to keep…read morethe baby more comfortable, but due to the timing, the music was quite loud, and the baby was very uncomfortable. That said, the food was outstanding, as always. We've been here many times, and our favorites never disappoint. This time, we had beef bites, bore cheeks, bacon-wrapped dates, lamb chops, oysters, and seared scallops. We also enjoyed a delicious dessert. Despite the baby's fuss, the warm atmosphere and attentive service made the evening special. Next time, we'll aim for an earlier booking to avoid the noise. We'll definitely be back!

    Bodega has been on my "must-try" list for ages and I'm so glad that I was finally able to make my…read moreway there. Most people in the city are familiar with Sabor, Edmonton's legendary Spanish and Portuguese restaurant. But have you ever wished that there was a more casual, more low-key version of Sabor? Maybe with multiple conveniently located spots around town? Well you're in luck because that's exactly what Bodega is! You'll find Bodega's flagship restaurant in the lower street level part of Sabor itself, however there are now five other locations. It's almost a guarantee that there is a Bodega near you, no matter where you are. People have loved this place for years. Voted as #1 Best Tapas 2018, #1 Best Spanish 2018, and #1 Best Wine Bar 2018 in VUE Weekly. CBC Edmonton's Best Restaurants 2019 listed them as Best of Downtown. And you'll find them as a Favourite Communal (Sharing) spot on the Edmonton Food Faves We Crave 2022 list. It turns out that the people of Edmonton love a laid-back tapas moment and getting some sangria into the mix doesn't hurt either. I was excited to visit Bodega's original location in the heart of Downtown on a Saturday evening and to finally experience their flavours. The first thing to note about the OG Bodega restaurant is that they don't take reservations, however all of the other ones do. As previously mentioned, you will find the flagship location right inside of Sabor. Parking can sometimes be tricky in this area and that's the only downside. If you've been to Sabor before you already know how impressive the space is. The huge building is one of those places that doesn't need to pretend to be old because it actually is. Instead of heading up the stairs into Sabor's dining space, Bodega is found to the left of the entrance in the lower street-facing area. It's actually a wonderful use of space which otherwise might not have served much of a purpose. Less dressed up and grand than Sabor (but still bearing a similar decor), Bodega harnesses the Spanish modern-day watering hole vibe by featuring a simple but beautiful bar area and bistro-style al fresco dining in the warmer months. The dining space is small and because there are no reservations taken it might be necessary to prepare for a wait. When my group arrived it took about 15 minutes to be seated which seemed entirely reasonable. We were pleased to be situated at a beautiful little table outdoors, in the warm summer breeze. Unfortunately, there were a lot of bugs flying around that kept landing on our table and we had to ask to be moved to one of the more interior tables. Thankfully the staff was able to accommodate this! We really didn't want the bugs to land in our food. The servers who visited our table were all extraordinarily friendly and gracious. Of course there were going to be drinks! The wine list is plentiful and extensive. However, I was more drawn to the interesting Iberico gin & tonics, caipirinhas, sangria, and the signature cocktails. These are the types of drinks that I picture myself holding on a patio in the summer. From the cocktail list, the De Puta Madre (Mezcal, dry Sherry, pineapple, lemon, orgeat, cocoa powder - $16) sounded like the most special one to me. Out of curiosity, I put the name of this drink into a Spanish to English translator and had a pretty good laugh when I learned that it means Fucking Awesome. Well. Sounds like I made the correct beverage choice! And I really did enjoy sipping on this perfectly crafted cocktail. I was slightly worried that the mezcal would be very strong and boozy, but the balance of the ingredients was lovely. I felt that I was able to taste and appreciate the flavour of the mezcal without it being too overpowering. The fruity and sweet flavours from the pineapple, lemon, and almond syrup made the drink fun, but again it wasn't too sweet either. I loved this cocktail and it paired perfectly with the rest of the meal. The food menu is packed full of options and every single thing sounds enticing. The good news is that the plates are small and part of the experience is to order a lot of them. There's a whole long list of tapas, but also breads, spreads, charcutaria, and cheese if you are in the mood to create an exciting board (I always am!). There are also some larger plates if you are truly looking for one big meal of food. On this visit I was aiming to remain in the tapas realm since that is what this restaurant is actually all about. As such, we proceeded to barrage our server with a long list of items, eager to sample as many dishes as reasonably possible. We were asked if we would prefer to have every dish all at once, but opted for a slow and staggered method. No need to hurry though! It wasn't long before our parade of plates began to arrive. First was the Brushchetta (Grape tomato and fromage blanc - $14.00). I wouldn't have chosen this dish on my own accord but I saw it pass by on its way to a different table and it caught my eye. The tomatoes looked

They changed thier menu to fall coziness so we tried a few different things. We had the Chou Farcie which is France's version of a cabbage roll- Savoy cabbage stuffed w/ braised pork & beef, sautéed vegetables & served with tomato sauce. We also had the Coq au Vin -two braised drumsticks, red wine, smoked bacon, shallots, and mushrooms. We had the savoury cake sale and the flavour was vegetable. Finally to round off the meal we had pommes duchesse w/horseradish, chive aïoli, and truffle oil. We also tried some seasonal cocktails. Service was friendly and professional. Food came out in timely manner. The ambiance was cozy and a great place to chat. Food was amazing as usual. Favourite was the devilled eggs but I really appreciated the chou farcie. The flavour was delicous and my hubby appreciated that it was mostly meat. You really can't go wrong here! Just order whatever you are feeling like and you won't be disappointed.

Partake is a gem on Sundays with their Sunday Sips & Snacks - $8 cocktails and snacks under $10. Such a beautiful cozy space (or enjoy their lovely patio), you'll want to linger and take your time here. Service is fabulous and so friendly, and the drinks are strong and well made. We love the food - dare I say, the best french onion soup in the city? (And just $6 on the Sunday snack menu!!) The charcuterie options change constantly, as does the flavour for the complimentary popcorn to nibble on (brown butter & dill the night we were there). From the regular menu, absolutely get the tartare. The flavours, the texture - every bite was perfect.

It is a great place to share a bunch of items with friends. Two of my favourite things are the boar cheeks and the piri piri prawns. I also love the sardines but our friends weren't so eagar to have them. So what we ordered was a wonderful bottle of Portuguese wine, boar cheeks braised in red wine, topped with crispy onions, patatas bravas -fried potatoes, spicy aioli, piri piri prawns with piri piri aioli, robalo -European seabass fillet with olive oil, sea salt and lemon, and Spanish pork sausages with puttanesca mustard, baked Portuguese baguette and butter, and smoked duck carpaccio with truffle oil, arugula. Everything was delicous but the standout for sure was the seabass and the smoked duck carpaccio. I think that I should try a few new dishes each time I go. You will never know what will be your new favourites.

Although we arrived a bit late, and the baby wasn't fully at ease, we were able to step in and out comfortably since the space is so intimate. I'd say it might not be the best place for a baby due to its size, but the food was outstanding. We tried a bit of everything: bore cheek, meatballs, calamari, Brussels sprouts, bone marrow, mussels, patatas bravas, and bacon-wrapped dates--each one a standout. For dessert, we couldn't resist and ordered the whole menu--every bite was delicious. We also enjoyed a bottle of wine that paired perfectly. Despite the baby's fuss, we thoroughly enjoyed the vibrant flavors, the warm atmosphere, and the attentive service. We'll definitely be back!
