We met friends to celebrate my husband and my 50 birthday. I was a little disappointed with the ambiance of the restaurant. It was very average. Trying to be a fine dining establishment, but falling short. First, we were put into a secluded corner. This would be a great table, however, it was right beside the door that went out to the patio and second, we were right by the waiter/waitress station. People were going in and out and by the end of our dinner, the sunlight was shinning on to our table, creating a blinding moment for my friends husband each time the door opened.As for the food, I thought it could have been better. I had their special, Halibut on Spaetzle ( a German noodle). The Ha...
Ah nineteen, long ago in birthdays and wedding anniversaries but right now for two delicious meals. A double-smoked bacon-wrapped scallop starter set the tone. The two scallops were perfectly cooked and the dollop of decadent, tomato-bacon marmalade almost made a dessert of it. My lady did not partake because she ordered the black garlic scallops mains and had the same result of perfectly cooked scallops with appropriate vegetables. The third seafood test of the kitchen was my order of peanut crusted Chinook salmon. No cooked to cardboard texture salmon here. Two stick-butter sized pieces with the skin slightly crusted and the flesh deliciously moist. Again, resting on an appropriate sub bas...
We were excited to try this restaurant to celebrate our 5th anniversary. It was just ok. The service was very alright but not amazing - there was no asking how our night was, asking if we were celebrating anything, etc, just to the point asking what we'd like to order. We were expecting the food to be amazing, the prices are quite high but we're alright with that for a special occasion. However the food wasn't worth the price they were asking. Portions were very small. We ordered the bacon wrapped scallops to start - they were very bland with very little flavor. My husband had the duck duo for dinner, he said it was alright but nothing special. I had the steak, again it was alright but I've...
I always judge a good restaurant by their consistency ... XIX is very very consistent, their dishes are amazing both in terms of flavour and presentation. I've been here many times and have probably had every dish on the appetizer and entree menu and I've never been disappointed. Whether you want a high level meal in a romantic setting or a relaxed couples setting, XIX has few peers in Edmonton. So why might you ask did I only give it 4 stars? Price ... I find this to be maybe the most expensive restaurant in Edmonton and I've eaten at most of them. Will I go back? That is a resounding yes but I suspect some people may have a serious issue with the cost. Our group of 4 had a drink before din...

Eight of our family enjoyed a great time together with delicious food at XIX today for Father's Day! Hubby said his omelet was the best he's ever had! Wow that's high praise from him! Eggs Benny with five spice was unique & delicious and turned out to be another favourite dish. Pancakes and cheesy scrambled eggs for the kids and their plates were totally cleaned of every bite! A cinnamon bun shared was a tasty finale! Thank you for great food and good service. We will return!
My wife and I went for a date night and were blown away. Made a reservation first. From the moment of calling to the moment of us saying goodbye and heading out the service was impeccable! The ambience is perfect for a romantic night out. The dishes were beyond unbelievable in presentation, aroma and flavour.
We went as 2 couples. The ambience is very nice and quiet. Very limited menu. The food is over rated from the reviews I have seen. Duck was tough and stringy, minimal sides although the duck portion was large. Veal was not very tasty and a bit rubbery. Service was excellent. Does not warrant a return trip.
Went for brunch and it's super tasty I got the waffles and chicken and man was it good, the waffles were fantastic and the chicken had so much flavour my only comment about the chicken is that it's wings, but they give you lots. Big protons, you won't leave hungry.I shall defiantly return.

Great food for sharing or special occasion. Good service. Chef will make special plates for vegetarians. Good wine list. Happy hour from 3:00-6:00. Wonderful lounge with great food /smaller portions. A favourite local restaurant
If you have an Anniversary or special birthday to celebrate with friends, this is a great place to enjoy a delicious meal. It's a bit pricey but well worth it.
