This is one of the best kept secrets of Halifax. It is not just for vegetarians and vegans but for anyone who appreciates great, high quality, unique, flavourful food. The quality is consistent, service is well above average and it has quickly become our favorite restaurant. I highly recommend Red Lunchbox and encourage you to take a risk on the more adventurous dishes too...you won’t regret it!
Great brunch. Alex was a great server. Hoping to take some Plant Based cooking classes at the Red Lunchbox.
Food was absolutely incredible. So flavorful and delicious! Will definitely be back and will recommend to anyone looking to enjoy a delicious meal!!
Wonderful! Staff are friendly, personable and funny. Food was delicious, different and flavourful. There is no restaurant this creative in Halifax. One of a kind. A small gem that is shaping the new wave of restaurants coming into Halifax. I can’t wait to try their brunch menu!
Seriously, the best restaurant in Canada may be in Halifax. And it just happens to be vegan, well 'plant-based'. We had a tasting menu of five courses. The flavours of local farm produce blend into subtle magic. Cauliflower gazpacho and a beet-cucumber-mint cooler were among my personal favorites. A surprisingly refreshing dining experience on the East Coast!
I was absolutely blown away by my first experience here. The service was extremely friendly and personable, and don't get me started on the food!! The explosion of different flavors was incredible - Definitely one of the best meals I've had in a very long time! They change their menu daily, so although I'm disappointed I won't be able to get the same thing next time, I'm really looking forward to see what else they have to offer. I will be recommending this place to all my friends, and hope to be back very soon!
Great vegan dining experience.
I enjoyed eating at the newly opened Red Lunchbox. The menu experiments with dishes you don’t see often in vegan restaurants (I had yet to see a plantain dish in Halifax until now). The restaurant proves that vegan food can taste good as i accidentally ate a banana and liked it (when i always thought i hated them). The menu may vary depending on what’s available so inquire within.
The restaurant is in a great location and there is plenty of parking in front of the place as around 5-10 (when they’re open) quinpool has street parking as most people aren’t at work.
On my visit on feb 21 was enjoyable as i came in when they opened. The waitress was amazing as she was knowledgeable about the food. At times she sat next to us to understand the menu (i like waitresses who act casual and personable). The chef came out and talked about his interests and philosphies (again, i love personable staff). I loved that the chef remembered that i came last week and said he was pretty happy to see us back.
If you like persoanble service i recommend you swing by the Red Lunchbox. The staff truly care about the business and it shows. Don’t be put off by the price, it will be the best vegan food you have eaten in Halifax and by far the best customer service.
Very creative plant-based dishes, unlike any other restaurant in Halifax, and probably nothing like it in Canada. Very friendly and interactive owner, extremely kind servers and food is 10/10.
Unique fine dining experience. The Red Lunchbox menu includes some of the most flavoursome dishes i have consumed in my 69 years of living, in fact, I will request Gnocchi from the Red Lunchbox as my final meal on this lovely planet we call home.
My friend and I enjoyed a beautiful dining experience from decor to the lovely food we devoured. Definitely a place to visit that should be on your radar
Delicious plant-based food, beautiful presentation, great atmosphere, amazing employees and an engaging owner! 10/10 and will return soon.
I was initially underwhelmed by the decor and menu options, but it was more than made up for by their beet and ginger cooler, and an incredibly tasty meal.
