Everything here was so delicious, I would highly recommend this place if you like to try new kinds of meats as everything on the menu is so good. My favourite was the elk tartare, would come back and order just a ton of those. Ambience is nice, tables are a little tight but nice enough for parties of 4-5.
Antler is focused on locally sourced food with options like duck, venison, foraged mushrooms and greens. The food was absolutely delicious and beautifully presented, with the bison steak being a real highlight. The menu is quite pricey but it's a perfect place for a fancy date night or other special occasion.
The food was delicious. Meat oriented to be sure. It's obvious great care is taken to prepare the meals as well as thought given to the composition of the flavours and textures.
I went there with a friend who has been a chef for 30 years. He felt the same way. If you go make sure to give yourself some time to really enjoy it and appreciate it.
While this is a fine dining experience you certainly get value. It is haute cuisine without the accompanying pretentiousness. Servers are relaxed and accommodating.
I will definitely return.
Absolutely fantastic! Great atmosphere on the patio (late Oct) with a personal heat lamp. We relied on our waitress' recommendations and started off with the duck wings - from an appearance perspective, they looked really dry but as you bit in to them, dipped in the sauce they came with, it was so moist.
We ordered two plates - the bison ribeye and the venison steak and split each plate between two. The venison was the star of the night! I would choose this over a beef filet mignon any day!
Service was fantastic. Although we didn't buy any drinks, our waitress made sure our water glasses were always filled and did the usual rounds between apps and mains. Would've loved dessert but we were full.
This was an amazing and totally different culinary experience. The food and wine were superb and service was outstanding. I would definitely go back to sit at the bar and try some of the very interesting cocktails and appetizers.
Antler had been on our list for quite some time and it did not disappoint, we were very impressed.
This entire menu is sent to earth from every religions heaven. The softest, well braised duck wings are beyond impeccable. The mains!! Every. Single. Item. was fantastically prepared with a flavour pallet that transcends human capability to fully appreciate it. Venison tenderloin with puree was worth every cent. The cocktails are so brilliant and flavourful it's unreal. Ontop of that, the staff are so nice and professional it makes the whole experience beyond amazing.
Pretty cosy intimate spot with specialty local meat and wild foods. Came here for dinner and the staff was very friendly and accommodating. I recommend the charcuterie board to try a little bit of everything, as well as the succulent duck heart yakitori. The unique cocktails are also a delight to try! Would visit again!
Where do I begin? This spot is so freaking amazing. From the customer service to the detailed explanation on how the dish is made and why, I loved asking questions. Did you know they use honey from a local farm from one team members in the kitchen? They support local!
Started with sautéed green veggies and the elk tartar. I now can't have anything else except elk tartar...maybe kobe beef tartar. I'm spoilt for ever now..the spices with the crispy bread.. wow.
I followed the venison. Oh my goodness. The layers of flavour on which the venison loin sat on were so rich and decadent.
Finished with the honey bavarois. Who knew this was so light and delicate?
I didn't have space for the wild boar pasta or pear dessert, but next time...I'm coming for them too. This spot is GEM and a must visit. - lots of support from Edmonton who dined for 1 ;)
