Anytime I travel I try to find a place that makes you feel welcome like home. I stopped at several places along the harbor front and Gahan's was the best. Very friendly and out going staff. Food is fantastic and reasonably priced. They have their own beer selection and they also have a decent selection of other beers. I was there several days back in July 12 - 15. Can't say enough about the staff Taylor, Matt, Nicole, Maddie, John, Brent, Joel, Taylor and Kyleigh. Sorry if I forgot anyone or got spelling wrong on any names. I will definitely stop back my next time in Halifax.
Great atmosphere and good food. Very conscious of food allergies � and the best patio in Halifax! Always enjoy going here.
Delicious food and generous portions! The interior is very cool, lots to look at and admire. Our server was really nice and patient despite our constant distractions making us forget to look at the food menu to order. The brown bag chicken comes with a TON of fries.
I'll start with the pros. The calamari and mussels were excellent. Both season perfectly. The mussels were in an original sauce that most other restaurants are skipping out on. The tartar was also a fairly generous portion. Very fresh.
The service was friendly but not the fastest. Adequate speed, I'd say.
The fish and chips were alright. The chips were so good. Great seasoning. The fish came fried in their beer batter. It's good, but heavy. After a couple of bites, you start to feel it. We removed the batter from the second strip and ate the fish. Still very good.
I visited here for the first time recently. The food was pretty tasty. I ordered the chicken wings, pork belly tacos, spinach salad and cheesecake. The wings were crispy, but not that flavourful. The portion size was fairly small for the price. The tacos were delicious and the cheesecake was tasty, but pretty sweet for my tastes. My favourite thing I had was the spinach salad. It was sweet and tangy with lots of different textures from the goat cheese, walnuts, cranberries and onions. I found that the service was somewhat lacking. We weren't in a rush so it wasn't a big deal, but it did take over two hours for our appetizer, entree and dessert. I understand that it was busy when we visited, but our server was almost impossible to track down most of the time.
Spacious spot for large gatherings. Food-wise, loved the seafood chowder and the fish cakes. As for drinks, the Hibiscus sour was pretty memorable. The staff was super friendly too.
We had our office party in the private room of the restaurant. It was an amazing experience. Food was excellent and the service was good.
Came here for a company event. Food was great and private room was excellent. Service was outstanding. Highly recommend!! Don’t forget to follow me!!
Dropped in for a quick drink with family who were waiting for a show at the local theatre to start. Despite not being in there very long it was very evident how delighted the table was with their service. The cocktails were excellent. I have had eaten there in the past with no complaints either. It's a good spot to kill some time and enjoy good food and drink.
Amazing changes to the waterfront! I haven’t been for over 5 plus years and this restaurant is an amazing addition next to the Scotiabank centre .
Lady seating us was not very friendly but our waitress was amazing! Knowledgeable, friendly and had some nice suggestions .
Great to people watch at a window seat, and lot to look at inside . Gluten free beer option and gluten free meal options .
Great vibe with variety of people and close to walk everywhere in Scotiabank Centre area!
We had amazing Crab Cakes made right, and fresh Mussels.. really nice Draft options also!
Every time I’ve gone to this restaurant I’ve had great service from the greeting staff to the servers. It’s got a welcoming atmosphere and the restaurant itself is nicely laid out and decorated.
I went during their Nacho week and their choices were great, from the vegan to the curried option.
when trying out their beer, you also have the option of purchasing some to go which is convenient especially after trying their great flavours. Blueberry Ale was great!
I highly recommend their Three Cheers Burger with your choice of side, their fries were nicely done. The burger was juicy and flavourful!
Great dining experience and highly recommended!

I really love their food as always, but the service was not great sometimes. When we went visit the restaurant, they messed up the number of the flight, so at the end the beer we ordered was not the one we wanted. We didn’t drink the beer (Can be distinguished by color) and just told the server that the beer was not the one we want. At this moment, the server’s expression changed greatly. I don't know the details of their work, but maybe she have to pay for this beer or sth, but it's not our fault. After telling the server to send the wrong beer, she took it back and gave us the beer we had expected, but her service was obviously much colder. Although we gave her more tips at the end, we didn’t have a good experience overall.

The servers were way better tonight when I went back. But I still noticed some servers still didn’t wear masks correctly when they talk to the other servers in front of the customers. Other than that everything is great! The food was super tasty.

Never been to the old location in the waterfront, and it was my first time here in this new location. Me and my bf got pan fried haddock and fried chicken burger ( I got their fries instead of the rice). The food was tasty, we both really enjoyed it. The atmosphere and decor are super nice and warm, also love how their patio looks like (it’s closed now in the fall but every time when I passed through in the summer, it always seems so nice)
-1 star for their server, the service went super poorly and slow. The server barely checked our table and everything took forever to arrive. Also I saw one of their servers didn’t wear the mask correctly, when she talked to the other server she took her mask off.
I’ll still go back sometimes, their food was super good.
