Service and food were very good, most of us had lobster. We just did not expect to be at „Little Fish“, since I made the reservation on the „5 Fishermen“ website, and it was not obvious to me that the reservation was at the Little Fish restaurant. I was not even aware that there were two different restaurants, and therefore two different products. Different menu, smaller Lobster, different sides, even the wine we had last time is not served downstairs… The first time I was at 5 Fishermen with my crew, and it was outstanding! It is a different experience, even though Little Fish is ok, but when you expect one thing (also the ambience is very much different), and you get the other, it’s always a little disappointing. We are Airline Crew from Europe, so we don‘t have the opportunity to re-book again a few days later. I wanted to take my crew to 5 Fishermen, instead we found ourselves at a different restaurant.

Great service and beautiful atmosphere. Drinks were excellent but the food was very underwhelming, especially for the price.

Waiter was very attentive and helpful. Oysters were good but disappointed with the Crobster sandwhich. Very little lobster at all.

The food was good, but quite overpriced. The steak tips were tender and flavourful, but the seafood pasta was quite skimpy on crab and lobster, especilly given the $36 price tag. There were only 3 tiny pieces of seafood in my pasta. Disappointing. There were no local wines on the menu, which was also disappointing, especially with the current focus on Buy Canadian and Shop Local. However, when I mentioned it, the server became defensive, arguing that it was a Mediterranean restaurant so they served Mediterranean wine, but then insisting they did support local by buying local ingredients. Fine, but local Nova Scotian wines also pair well with Mediterranean food, and if you buy local ingredients anyways, why not local wines? The rationale made no sense. Overall, a pleasant but unremarkable and expensive meal. There are better seafood restaurants in Halifax.

Love the vibe in this place! Great atmosphere and the music was perfect. Server was friendly and knowledgeable and handled food sensitivities seriously which was reassuring. The ricotta toast was amazing, fries, crobster roll were delish. Steak was great but side salad’s weren’t the best. We didn’t have dessert. We’d try it again for sure!
