    On left: Basha Asker, right: Veggie Plate.

    Tried this place after a family member recommended it and was not disappointed! Bar none, the best middle eastern food I've had in Halifax. Basha Asker was fantastic, went really well with the Smokey rice. The vegetable plate was lit, the Bourak, Baba Ganoush, delicious. I'd like to type more but I'm too full to move :)

    This was a pleasant surprise on my east coast trip. I was told that before the chef came to Halifax, he used to cook for royalty. The place is cozy and the items were of quality. My only problem was that the lamb was so dry and chewy. Rubber ish! However all the other items including the salad were right on the mark!

    My wife recently heard about this restaurant and we decided on our next date night to check it out. I'm glad we did as everything we had was excellent! The restaurant is a cozy space that had a lot more space than meets the eye. I got the Okra and my wife got the lamb Mandi. The lamb on both dishes were fall off the bone tender and very flavorful. We closed our evening with Turkish coffee, baklava and a coconut almond square (forgot the name). Highly recommended!

    We stopped in on a Tuesday afternoon as we were craving some Greek food while we were in Halifax…read more Since Athens on Quinpool Rd closed and Opa in downtown Halifax closed there are not many good options for Greek and we held out high hopes of ela! Greek Taverna. ela! has a nice authentic Greek ambiance and the servers were pleasant and just attentive enough. But the food let us down for quantity and price. The three of us always like a variety so often order Appetizer platters when they are offered. The ela! website shows the Menu and the appy platter is listed as $60. The platter we received was priced at $75 and while it says is feeds 4 there were only two of each item so someone went without or two people had to share. For $75.......come on. A tad over priced. The appy platter also was filled in the middle with french fries, not Roasted Greek Potatoes like I would expect in a Greek Restaurant. Nary a single Roasted Greek Potato to be seen. A side of Saganaki is always required but a smallish piece of melty cheese for $20!!! Way over the top price for what you get. I realize food prices went up during covid but instead of bring them back down where they should be, all restaurants are holding the high prices. ela! has decent food but they are way over priced for amount you actually get. Greek food is very easy to cook at home so we will not be back.

    Best Meal of the Trip - Quality Over Quantity Done Right…read more Our brunch at Daryâ was hands-down the best meal of our trip so far. For $35, the brunch buffet is an absolute steal considering the quality of food and the overall experience. While the selection isn't massive, everything they offer is executed flawlessly--and honestly, you don't need 50 options when each dish is this good. The potato latkes were a standout--crispy, flavourful, and probably the best we've ever had. We also treated ourselves to the 12-for-$42 Mimosa Tree, and it was such a fun and tasty addition to the meal. The variety of flavours was impressive, with Cranberry Vanilla, Guava, and Pistachio Pear being the unexpected stars of the lineup. From the elegant atmosphere to the impeccable food and drinks, this place nails brunch. Highly recommend if you're in Halifax and want something elevated without being stuffy.

The fried halloumi sticks were very tough to chew and very little taste. For dinner we got the chicken shwarma and spanakopita. The chicken pieces in the middle weren't bad but on either end the pieces were dry and tough and should not be served. If you're grilling chicken all pieces need to be same size to avoid this problem. The spanakopita was a huge disappointment. It was a round pie which looked good. The filling was some creamy tasteless cheesy mess. Could not taste any spinach or feta cheese. Probably heavy on the ricotta. Service was forgettable. Cannot recommend this place.
