Finally.. A decent spot to get authentic food in Kentville! For some reason, this cute town is…read moretrapped in a time warp with no good real food until now! REAL, authentic sushi is a major upgrade for this little town. It's made fresh daily and they're on the main drag so it's easy to park in Town Square around the corner, out front or really on any side street since parking is free in this town. Just be mindful of HOW and WHERE you park as there is a local bylaw officer who makes his rounds with a measuring tape, camera and ticket book! The place is tiny and is pretty much take out only. Most items are in a cooler ready to go and the prices are great. Owners are super friendly and you can also call in special orders. This place is quite popular so things sell out QUICK! If you don't want to be disappointed, call ahead to check what they've got left for the day. Absolutely worth checking out and a very welcome addition to the town!

Very minor gripe- I would have liked to have been offered a refill on my coffee. The location is a bit out of the way, and the place doesn't look like much from the outside, but the inside is great, filled with local art work and beautiful wooden tables with stones embedded in them. There's also live music over the lunch hour most days which is a nice treat. I might suggest they get a new high chair, as the one available didn't have a harness to secure my squirmy little one... There was a tempting selection of baked goods on offer as well, and they also had a good selection of single portion frozen meals you could take home with you. Definitely one of my favourite lunch spots when visiting the area!

I don't even know where to begin on the 7 different ways they have terrible customer service at The…read morePurple Lotus Restaurant. I ordered $97 worth of food, which was only that high because I gave them a 15% tip, because I'm not a jerk. When I picked up my food, everything seemed fine. I got in my truck, and as I set my food on the seat next to me, everything fell out of the bag. The paper bag was wet, and ripped through the white plastic bag. I don't know if this is on purpose or if they're really that inadequate at packing!! Now, as I am about to post pictures of the mayhem that ensued, it's actually heartless that they wouldn't even give me a RAG to clean it up. I asked for a pail of water and a rag, and they lied to me, and said they didn't have any rags in the back!!! They could only give me paper towels. They tried to hand me one small, balled-up piece of paper towel!! Obviously, knowing I have to go home to my husband, I asked for my money back, and they wouldn't give it to me. Then I called them and told them they need to pay me back or I'm taking them to court. The owner told me that if I had a problem, I could call 911 in as snotty tone as she could muster!!! I am good to people, and everybody who knows me knows I would never treat somebody like this. We are absolutely disgusted, not just at the poor customer service but their lack and UTTER absence of humanity!!! Especially since the waitress herself had even witnessed how bad it was and told me that, that does happen sometimes because it's very hot. I would like to add that the waitress was SO nice and this is not her fault, but the owner is a hateful person who clearly doesn't care about other people, and cannot take accountability for her own mistake, as apparently she was the brain scientist who packed the food. What a hateful, snotty FOUL PUTRID DEMONIC TROLL of a woman. Her karma is coming for her, and similar to my food I paid her for that went on the floor, her karma is something that she will not be able to swallow.

The service was really good and friendly as well. The menu has indicators on spice level as well for people who are sensitive to spices (me). They were pretty empty when we went in, I'm not sure what the busy hours would be or if it would slow down the service. But I would absolutely recommend this place for authentic Thai food.

It's your standard Eggs Benny sandwiched between two thick slices of homemade bread (your choice of white, whole wheat or multigrain - no less!) and a bowl of some of the tastiest Hollandaise I've found in the past few months. All tucked away in an unassuming, down-home diner in Port Williams - a quick drive from downtown Wolfville! More people need to know about this! Four tables covered in business cards of diners-gone-by are set up in a space about the size of a loading elevator surrounded by antiques and collectibles of all kinds including a very important sign: 'Patience required as good food takes time to prepare.' Why so important? Well, there's only one person cooking back there. ONE. If she doesn't make it, you're not eating it. It makes for consistently hearty and satisfying meals, but it does increase your wait time. Portions are HUGE (actually, the burgers border on obscene...), everything is made fresh on site, and the prices are more than affordable considering what you get! And on that note, hit up an ATM at the corner store next door since it's all cash only!

Even when it was only half full we overhead the waitress welcoming new customers with "We will get to you as soon as we can". The waits weren't long, and the food was great! I rediscovered the origins of hash browns in their culturally authentic Acadian grated potato pancakes - the size of a Frisbee. Crunchy on the outside and soft inside. Lots of potato flavour! The middle sized breakfast was huge - eggs, bacon, home fries and great homemade bread. Annnd - one can substitute the potato pancakes for home fries!!!! Unfortunately it can't get a 5 star because they were seen reusing the homemade jam from the individual servings - scrape the top, smooth it out and add more to the top. As much as I encourage good economics of not throwing out tons of jam - this isn't a great practise:-( So, I leave it to your judgement - food great, space small, cash only and great prices. I hope they survive and thrive in Port Williams.

I called at different times they were open on two different days. No answer. We were able to get a table and hostess was extremely friendly. She even brought me a free miso soup as my husband got one with his sushi order. He said sushi was the best he ever has had. My udon soup was not so good. Three soggy, skinny shrimp tempura on top of a huge bowl of noodles and broth (expensive, too). Nothing else in the soup but some onion slices. Was not great. Why put fried tempura shrimp in a soup? They were so soggy they did not taste good. They did bring my husband a dessert on the house with a sparkler in it. They were all incredibly friendly. Will go again, but won't have udon soup.

The other dishes being ordered around us, like the jajangmyeon, looked fabulous also. The restaurant was warm and welcoming on a damp, chilly night and the staff was super friendly and welcoming.
