    Chefs board
    Michelle M.

    I love this little spot in St. Albert. Today we wanted to sit on the patio and enjoy some beverages, unfortunately Mother Nature lately doesn't allow much outdoor sunshine time. The server we had let us sit right inside and left the doors open so we could still have the breeze....until it started to rain and the wind picked up. Our server was on the ball got us our drinks and they were great. They were serving rose wine all day. They had a lovely summer menu as well. I got the Tuscan Strawberry kiss it was just ok. But I'm not a huge fan of preseco so that's my fault. I then ordered the coconut mint margarita and that was a hit!!! My friend had a raspberry drink I forgot to ask her what it was. I tried it and it was also very light and summery. My friend and I shared their version of a charcuterie board called the Chefs Board. I was happy with it, not a fan of smoked cheeses but there wasn't much of that so can't complain. My mom and her friend both had seafood pasta one was gluten free the other regular both in a white wine sauce. That sauce I wish they sold by the barrel it was so light and flavourful. What a great dish!! I really like the ambience here too. It's lightly lit inside and it's very warm and cozy. They also have a lounge side which I've been to a few times as well. Overall we had a wonderful experience, food was great and the service was great. This is what you want when you go out. Well done! This is why I continue to return.

    Complementary bread (rosemary infused?) with olive oil and balsamic vinegar
    Kristin K.

    Visited Sorrentino's Bistro Bar in St. Albert today for the 2nd time. Our first visit (nearly a year ago) was much better than today's visit. We arrived at 1115am and had to wait until 1130am for them to open for lunch. We were the only table seated in the lounge. We chose to sit in the lounge which had a nice atmosphere but smelled strongly of their wood burning oven which put my tummy a little off on a hot summer's day. I inquired about a suggestion for a non-alcoholic summertime drink - preferably something bubbly and sour. Server/bartender couldn't think of anything.... Okay, water then. Hubby settled on the Chicken Parmigiana and I ordered Linguine Pescatore with a white wine sauce. While waiting for our entrees, complementary bread (rosemary infused?) was provided with olive oil and balsamic vinegar - delish! Pollo (Chicken) Parmigiana was $18.00 on the lunch menu and came with optional sides - Hubby chose mashed potatoes and veggies. He quite enjoyed his entree - I though the tomato sauce tasted quite acidic and could use some balancing. The Linguine Pescatore was $18 on the lunch menu and came with 3 scallops, 3 shrimp, 3 calamari rings, 3 mussels, and 3 clams... Only problem is 1 clam was closed! When I server came back to check on us approximately 10 minutes into the meal I showed her my closed clam and noted that I was disappointed that the kitchen would send out something that could potentially make a customer very ill and it's not as though they were slammed busy (us being the only table in sight). She apologized and offered to have the dish refired. At this point, I had already eaten all the seafood off my plate and my husband had almost finished his entree. I politely declined but she asked several more times and convinced me to at least have some clams refired. She took my closed clam to the kitchen to show the chef and came back approximately 5 minutes later with 5 clams to replace my 1. Even with the closed clam issue aside, I found the white wine sauce to be subpar and I usually LOVE a good white wine sauce on my seafood! I couldn't quite tell if it was the choice of white wine or herbs that didn't taste so fresh or herbs that didn't pair so well with this particular white wine but the outcome was a kind of old tasting sauce - definitely did not scream fresh. Our server was pleasant and polite - my only complaint is that it took her about 10 minutes to check in with us upon receiving our entrees and that she didn't have a drink suggestion for me. We used an Entertainment Coupon for a $15 discount - so today's total only came to $22.05 - I certainly wouldn't have been happy with a $40 bill. We will return to Sorentino's again... Just not at the top of our to do list. I did notice a fairly decent Happy Hour menu available in the lounge and patio from 3-6pm daily... Perhaps next time we'll return for some bruschetta and calamari! *Pictures uploaded*

    Brie, sundried cherry, honey and pistachio bruschetta and prosciutto wrapped figs....so yummy!!

    My wife wanted to go for Italian food to celebrate her birthday so we decided on Sorrentino's. We also were celebrating my Grandmother's 93rd birthday. We had a rather large group of 13. I had originally made reservations for 10. I called back the day before the birthday and added a few guests to the original reservation. All the communication I had was over the phone with a fellow named Walter. He was an ABSOLUTE PLEASURE to deal with. When I called back the second time, he knew my name and knew all about my reservation. When we arrived at the restaurant, Walter showed us to our table in the middle portion of the restaurant. We had 2 children in our group and one of the children needed a high chair which they promptly got for us. Walter was extremely accommodating to our group and asked us multiple times if there was anything that he could do for us. He took a few photos of our group, and addressed any and all issues that our group had. Walter was charming and chatted with our group and made us feel very welcome. The service was pretty good as we basically had a server dedicated to our group.Bread is provided at the beginning of the meal with the olive oil, balsamic and I think garlic dip. My wife and I ended up ordering a couple of appetizers as well as a starter salad before our meals. We got an order of the brie, sun dried cherry bruschetta and an order of the prosciutto wrapped figs. The brie cheese with the sweetness of the sun dried cherry and honey was a good combination. The figs were delicious too, but I think that anything wrapped in prosciutto is good! The cesar salad we ordered was good too but I like a little more garlic taste in my dressing. I had one of the special summer menu items. I forget the exact name of it but it was the shrimp pizza with peppers and thai sauce. I definitely liked this pizza as the toppings are not standard pizza fare. I've had better pizza dough/crust before, but it was still good. To conclude our meal, my Grandma and wife were both brought out birthday desserts complete with candles. This was a really nice touch and were thoroughly enjoyed! I had a little sample of the key lime pie and found it was some of the best key lime pie I have had. Key lime is one of my favorite pie flavors and that desert didn't disappoint. All in all we had a GREAT birthday dinner experience and it was made extra special by Walter. We will definitely be back for some more Italian eats! Maybe even a cooking class!

    Had a nice dinner. Staff was friendly. We have three young boys with us do they gave us a nice isolated table. Pizza and calzone was excellent. Wife didn't like the pasta. Service was very good. Heading out for gelato.

    This is the perfect spot for girls night out!¡! Server was a cutie, we ordered gnocchi, pollo pizza and the cannelloni, all of which were excellent. However, the portions were quite large. (I'm not complaining but my pants are (food baby)) I would definitely recommended this restaurant for a date or another girls night out. The bartender was heavy handed the first time around. Prices were fair for the amount that you received as well as the quality of the food. I have no complaints about the service, food, or location. Overall we had a great girls night out.

Nice place, feels more upscale, more romantic. Nice patio too but it was going to rain so we opted to sit inside. Tried the Crispy Pickles. For $11 they were reasonably priced. Enough for 4 people as a small snack. Nice light batter, did not taste too greasy. Lovely dill dip. 9/10. I got the Honey Fried Chicken Sandwich with yam fries. Yam fries were 10/10 - super crispy, well salted. Chicken sandwich was a moist and well cooked but not very flavorful. Liked the honey taste. Not enough slaw in my opinion but the garlic mayo was nice. Bun was super soft and fresh. Overall not the best or worst chicken sandwich. 8/10. Friend got the Cure. Fries were cooked well. Bottom ones were a touch extra salty they reported. gravy was very nice and light. poached eggs were WAY overcooked and totally hard boiled. Friend got the Central Breakfast sandwich. Liked this. Egg was still a touch runny which was expected and desired. Too bad it does not come with any sides so friend was hungry after. Dessert we tried the House-made doughnuts. Tasted fresh (not piping hot htough). Cinnamon sugar coating was nice. Very doughy but not raw. Dip was super watery and tasteless. Would have preferred more smaller donuts to increase how much sugar topping you get per bite. Overall I would not get again as they were pretty meh.

This restaurant, even before you sit down, tells you that your table is reserved 5 1/2 hours later (sometimes they inform you it's reserved for the next day). Very strange, I guess they want you gone even before you sit down. At first, I thought our group got that special treatment, but no, the hostess makes sure every group shares in the awkward experience. This whole interaction sets the vibe for the service to follow, and yes, it's very strange. It's like the restaurant wants your business, but then doesn't want you even there. Interesting business operations plan. The food is alright, a little overpriced for the actual quality you are getting. Personally, avoid this place, it pretends to be sort of high-end, but it has ghetto service. Go to Earls instead, a restaurant that actually wants your business.

    Located along the Sturgeon River in a gorgeous Victorian-style house in St. Albert sits Riverbank…read moreBistro. Known for classic Canadian fare with a modern twist, this restaurant has been around since 2017 and has been St. Albert's most coveted date night spot ever since. Chef and owner Dan Ducharme has been in the game for a long time and his culinary vision is allowed to shine within Riverbank's historic walls. Using ingredients from the best local producers; such as seafood from Effing Seafoods (Rob is everyone's favourite fishmonger), whatever sparks inspiration at the St. Albert Farmers' Market, and of course beef and cheese from a producer that requires no introduction; Lakeside Farmstead, the plates at Riverbank Bistro promise fresh comfort food with an elevated air. In fact, it was Jeff Nonay (a name synonymous with quality) of Lakeside Farmstead who arranged for my dinner and I couldn't have been more excited to taste his famed products, prepared under Chef Ducharme's expertise. I visited on a Saturday evening and you certainly cannot miss the iconic building that Riverbank Bistro resides in. With its burgundy exterior and dramatic spires, this converted estate now contains several businesses, one of them being the restaurant. Perched along the river, you will be treated to idyllic views to accompany your meal. The inside of the dining room is refreshed and modern while carefully maintaining the original character that makes the building so special. Expect charcoal-wrapped banquettes, rustic wood, and statement lighting. Whisked to our comfortable table, it wasn't long before each and every other seat within view was occupied and the room was filled with the din of happy diners. Our server was exceedingly prompt and professional, revealing that we would be treated to a special five-course chef's table experience. I absolutely could not wait to get started. Chef Ducharme himself made the time to greet us at our table, narrowly escaping the intensity of his busy kitchen. He managed to personally deliver our dishes, describing each one and its ingredients with care. What a unique privilege! I'm a cocktail girl and had to begin my adventure with a Strawberry Vanilla Mojito (Fresh strawberries, Bumbu rum, vanilla liqueur, mint, lime - $16.00), prepared by the skilled barstaff. Perfect to sip on while reminiscing on the summer that just was, I enjoyed this fresh and fruity take on a classic. Muddled strawberries and mint leaves mixed playfully with the flavours of vanilla and lime. Just my kind of drink! The first course to arrive was a showstopper; Quahog Clams sourced by St. Albert's own Effing Seafoods. Served in a kimchi broth that was made with sun-dried tomato and saffron then dotted with emerald-coloured chive oil, this dish was bursting with big umami flavour! The portion consisted of a generous number of clams, each one large and juicy. However, it was the perfectly executed broth that I could have lived in. The provided triangles of sourdough were necessary for sopping up every last delicious drop. Next to arrive was a beautiful Fall Risotto, showcasing the best ingredients of the season. This unique risotto was made with a grain similar to barley or farro instead of traditional Arborio rice. Not only did this create an innovative and Canadian twist on a classic dish but the larger grains delivered a rustic plate. Each bite was chewy and nutty which was highlighted perfectly by the bright orange pieces of tender kabocha squash throughout. Mustard and sunflower seed added texture, while the housemade chicken jus (inspired!) brought decadence. The pickled components went a far way to achieve balance. Delicate curls of greens sat atop it all along with a sprinkling of Alpine cheese from Lakeside Farmstead. Each bite was rich and delicious, taking the concept of a warm fall comfort dish and elevating it to something thoughtful and elegant. Truly autumn in Alberta on a plate. The third course consisted of a Strawberry Sorbet palate cleanser which was a great way to pause and refresh the meal after the starter courses. Served with lemon zest and basil, the perfectly spherical scoop was sitting in a small pool of extra virgin olive oil. Beautifully fragrant, this sorbet was ultra creamy with very few ice crystals. A perfect match to my Strawberry Vanilla Mojito cocktail as well! Then it was time for the main dishes and they were more than what we could have wished for! Two gorgeous, high-quality, well-marbled, Nonay Strip Loin Steaks, each cooked to a medium-rare perfection. Each plate was accompanied by Lakeside Farmstead Fromage Blanc mash (their beef and cheese on one plate - chef's kiss!), sautéed spinach and mushrooms, and a black garlic jus. The really cool part was that each steak had been dry-aged for a different amount of time and it was very neat to taste and compare the difference that 40 days makes. First up is the 80 Day Dry-Aged Strip Loin Steak. Visually, it was very evident that this

Their website says "DJ's Lounge and Café", their facebook page is "DJ's Lounge and Pizzaria", and on their menus it is "DJ's Lounge and Pizzeria". No matter what you call it though, it's a good place to go. It's a smaller place. I would say 12 - 20 tables, though I didn't actually count them. On one side of the restaurant is tall tables and chairs, and on the other side is booths. But the booths are a little strange and hold 3 people comfortably... 4 if you don't mind hitting elbows. Now, onto the food. I attended a "cash mob" event, which was set up as a buffet, rather than order off the menu. Items presented to us were Hummus, pita chips, Fatoush salad, lasagna, and MULTIPLE pizzas. Although it was appreciated, I think they made waaaay too much food lol But honestly, everything was really good. A couple of reasons that I knocked a star off. The lasagna and pizza were both really tasty, BUT they were pretty greasy. Also, there is only one female and one male washroom... which just seems silly for a place that sells alcohol. But... the washrooms were clean, so that's good. The owner came out and talked with us for a bit. He explained his vision and why he loves his business. From what I can see on facebook, they seem to do a LOT of business with Skip the Dishes. So, check them out for delivery!

Just make your way to XIX. We went in on a Thursday evening and were seated in the lounge. The salad we ordered to share as an appie was good. Drinks were delicious. We ordered the Coconut Atlantic Salmon and the Tenderloin Steak medium rare. The salmon was good, but the steak was cooked beyond well done - so much so that it was chewy. I asked to have the steak sent back and ordered the Harvest Salad instead. After a little while, my partner was almost done their meal and my salad had not arrived, so I asked to have the order cancelled. The server said she would cancel it, then came back 5-10 minutes later to say that it was almost ready and asked if I still wanted it. By this point my partner was almost done with their meal. I said I'd still like it cancelled and ordered a dessert to take home. The server arrived after about another 5 minutes with a box. Thinking it was the dessert, I was about to ask for the bill, but she said it was the salad and I could take it or leave it. I told her I did not want it, she said she would leave it, and repeated that I could leave it if I wanted. The dessert came soon after along with the bill. The salad was still on the bill. I asked to have it removed and the server said she could not. She called over the manager who said they were not going to take it off the bill because I took too long to cancel it. I explained that I cancelled it, at least 5 minutes passed before it was "almost ready," and then it arrived another 5-10 minutes after that, so I did not want it, nor did I want to pay for it. She said they had already "comped" the steak so I had to pay for the salad. I told her there was nothing to "comp." The steak was inedible (I had one bite out of it and returned it), so not something to comp. It was an awful meal that no one should have to pay for. I had asked for the salad to be canceled, so again, I was not asking to have anything for free. My night was ruined, I was upset, and just wanted to leave. At this point, I didn't even care anymore, I told her I'd pay for the salad and wanted to go home. The manager said she'd ask the chef if he would take it off the bill. Again, I said no and asked for the bill with the salad so I could just leave, but she left anyway. What felt like at least another 10 minutes passed before she came back. This time she said the chef had taken the drinks off, but I had to pay for the salad. The whole experience was terrible, but the last bit felt like I was being held hostage. I wanted to pay and leave, but couldn't because they wouldn't give me the bill. We took our boxes and left. I still don't know what the point of all this was. Sure they don't want to loose money. Then why offer a steak you don't know how to cook? And, comp? Do they know what that means? There is nothing complementary about having inedible food you cannot eat taken off your bill. I ordered the salad and cancelled. I don't know how their kitchen works, even if I had taken too long to cancel, I did not deserve to be kept there after I agreed to pay for it. They took the drinks off and not the salad? I think the difference what $8. Does the $8 matter that much to them? Was it some deranged power move?? ... like a "haha, we won't let you have your way!" Oookay, you guys win! Guess I shouldn't argue with a guy who can't cook a steak. He must know better than me.
