Best Seasonal Restaurants in Old Strathcona

Oh man it was amazing! The roasted cauliflower, gnocchi, and the Cornish hen were all just so delicious! We each had a nice drink and the cost was extremely reasonable all things considered! Great service - very attentive, knowledgeable, and friendly! Water was never empty for long! Thank you all

Went here for a date on Valentines Day. Everything about this restaurant was great! The lighting wasn't too bright (it was nice and moody) and set the mood for a great date. The service totally reminded us of the restaurant "Ever" on The Bear, haha. Chris, the server, always knew what we needed even without us asking. The food was the best part. We got the Teryoki Sirloin and French Onion soup. Both were great, but my favorite was the soup. I think the steak would have been on another level if marinated. Something to keep in mind! Anyways, it's a great restaurant and the perfect date place

Considering that in many restaurants the often "associated chaos" on special days like Valentine's Day, the team at Boxer were incredible. Ambience in the newly opened "street space" was very nice, intimate for those that wanted more privacy and the hostess was most accommodating in finding the right table for us. With a set menu that offered three interesting and as it turns out, very tasty choices in appetizers, mains and desserts, we were very pleased at promptness of service, food presentation and delivery and of course the quality of food and excellent taste. A great venue for special occasions and for regular dining and highly recommended when dining in the Old Strathcona area of Edmonton.

Delicious food and always great service! The set Valentine’s Day menu was super tasty, but I do wish they gave slightly bigger portions of a couple of the dishes. Could’ve done with just a touch more pasta and arancini—overall didn’t leave hungry, but did still have room for a bit more. Chicken parm, strozzapreti, and grilled zucchini were fab!

Consider adding seasonal drinks! We enjoyed all but it would be nice to have variety. Oh and be sure to stock up on syrups for drinks and pineapple juice!
