For our appetizers, we ordered the calamari, torched oysters, and Bulkeley salad. The calamari was fantastic, served with a tasty dipping sauce and a generous portion. The salad featured a delightful apple ginger gastrique dressing, providing both flavor and crunch. The torched oysters were a treat, especially since I had never tried raw oysters before; it turned out to be a great decision. For our main courses, we had the seafood risotto, which was packed with generous portions of lobster, scallops, shrimp, and halibut—absolutely delicious! The Atlantic halibut was also excellent, paired with cilantro lime quinoa and sun-dried tomatoes. The spaghetti aglio was flavorful, loaded with shrimp...
From the get go the host was very welcoming. I was seated by the oyster bar and might I say the best table in the house. The bartenders were attentive and didn't mind all my questions about oyster shucking. One of them was even showing me in steps and details on how to shuck an oyster, how to tell oyster's age, and the anatomy of it. It was an experience! When it comes to the food, I started with 3 freshly shucked oysters: lucky line PEI, Northern's Nova, and Pristine Bay. Since I know nothing of oysters, these were the bartender's top 3, and he delivered. The Seafood Risotto was something else, the risotto itself was just creamy and not too overpowering while all the toppings: Digby scallop...
Went for dinner at this over 200 year old restaurant and gastro pub. Awesome old school maritime decor, knowledgeable staff and excellent food. We had a few dozen of the freshest oysters I've ever eaten. It felt like they had been plucked for the ocean minutes prior to being shucked. The pineapple mignonette and wasabi caviar were inspired and delicious. I had a flight of scotch and added a few drops to my oysters....game changing. The ribeye I ordered Chicago style was perfect, zero complaints. The seafood chowder and calamari were excellent as well. Staff were welcoming and gave a low key fine dining experience I'll remember for ever. I'll be back for sure.
Very strange experience and can 't recommend this place. We were seated literally in a closet. I get that it 's an old building with quirks but we felt very uncomfortable the whole time. No bread served and the torched oyster appetizer took 40 minutes!! And was not worth the wait. We were so hungry and the server never came to check on us. When she finally did, her excuse for late food was that the chef was confused by the sesame allergy in one of our party. Really?! Main courses were nothing special. Beef short rib was tender but sauce was from a bottle. You can find better with all The great choices in Halifax.

The menu is a brilliant display of creativity, featuring a variety of dishes that delight the senses. Each plate is not only a treat for the taste buds but also a visual delight, demonstrating the chef's careful attention to detail and presentation.
Beautiful interior and delicious food. The service was also very friendly. We ordered their unique the Drill , which is a 5 course dinner that changes daily. We got a variety of dishes such as mussel stuffed salmon, grilled scallops, duck, sorbet and much more. The dessert was way too sweet for us but everything else hit the spot.
Delicious food, excellent service (don't even know your plate was cleared and water glass filled). The ambiance is charming and cozy. I come here once a year with my kids, never disappointed .
The oysters are incredibly delicious—hands down the freshest and most flavorful I've ever had. Once you try them, you'll see I'm not exaggerating at all!
This was my first time here and it was amazing, highly recommend the seafood risotto and the fresh oysters for a starter! You will not be disappointed
