I discovered an incredible spot right in the heart of Halifax — Lot Six Bar & Restaurant!  The service was fantastic; the staff were polite, attentive, and came by at just the right times without being intrusive, which made the experience very comfortable. I want to give special attention to the food. We ordered the oysters, Maritime mussels, cheese & charcuterie board, and bacon-wrapped scallops. It’s impossible to pick a single favorite because every dish was unbelievably delicious! On top of that, I was pleasantly surprised by the reasonable prices for such quality.  I will definitely be returning and highly recommend this place!

Au Liban was excellent. We were a group of six and had a great experience from start to finish. The food was fresh, flavourful, and very well prepared, the ambiance was great, and the space was clean with a cool, comfortable vibe. The staff were also very friendly and accommodating, which made the evening even better. Definitely a spot I’d recommend and return to.

Excellent dinner last night. The snow crab dip was delicious of course, and then I had lobster spaghettini and my partner had the burger. Both excellent. Service was a little slow but this didn’t detract and my glass of rose wine was delicious.
