Great seafood. Lovely ambiance, a little more on the pricey side and yes, they do take reservations so make sure you boot up your OpenTable account.
Also, their Halifax donairs are VERY tasty.

Their coffee is legit. The owner cares about a quality brew and though you may/may not be able to get WiFi, this place is a true coffee shop providing an equally cozy experience.

This is my FAVOURITE place on the entire street. It's a hole-in-the-wall but I drop at least $30 a week on average in this place because their Chicken Korma Rotis are without equal. Trust me on this!
