5 Social - Halifax

Our reservation was at 8. It took awhile for the server to come to us, but once they did, they was lovely. Unfortunately, we felt rushed because the kitchen would be closing at 9

We started with mussels and truffle fries. Both very good, especially the aioli that came with the fries. For mains we had the lobster dish (all claw meat) and the Salmon. Both cooked perfectly and good portions. Our waiter was friendly and knowledgeable and prices, for a dinner out in downtown Halifax, were reasonable. Definitely recommend.

Lovely quiet atmosphere for drinks and snacks. Highly recommend.

We were extremely disappointed last evening when we had 8pm reservations at Five Fishermen. Upon arrival, having reservations and noting many open tables, we were shown to a high top for two in the corner next to a hallway to the kitchen/restroom s. When we asked to be seated, we were told we could not be accommodated. We chose to leave and subsequently had a wonderful dinner (without reservations) at The Press Gang!

Great meal in a cozy setting. High top table with great and friendly service. Great value!
