Succulent seafood restaurants in Halifax
The Five Fishermen is another beacon on the Halifax dining scene. It’s impossible to miss in the large, historic house located on the corner of Argyle and Carmichael Street. As with other high-end seafood establishments in Halifax, if the fish isn't very fresh, then something is amiss. Please do try the lobster linguine or the lobster-stuffed scallops; they are a great mix of sweet and savoury. The service is excellent and the booths – made of dark wood, with brass railing around them -– are comfortable and cozy.

Where to enjoy NS wines when you dine in Halifax
It’s not easy being the gold standard for seafood in a coastal city, but The Five Fishermen makes it look that way. From its position overlooking the Grand Parade, the dining room – with its wood finishings and exposed brick – provides a suitable setting for some of the best seafood around. The wine list includes two local offerings, Luckett Vineyards’ Tidal Bay and Benjamin Bridge’s Nova 7 sparkler, but either works well with the restaurant’s namesake Five Fish entree.

Halifax oyster bars: Eat, slurp and be merry
As the city's flagship location for upscale seafood, you'd expect Argyle Street's legendary Five Fishermen to feature live oysters. You'd be right, too, with the tasty molluscs featuring on the menus of both the upscale restaurant and the airier, relaxed grill. If you order your half-dozen at the restaurant, they'll come with an elegant white truffle oil mignonette. At the grill, take advantage of the daily Happy Hour and get the oysters with a glass of wine and choice of condiments.
