El Jardin

El Jardin is the perfect place for a romantic evening or a trendy night out, with a cozy atmosphere, flickering candles and Latin inspired decor. The menu is creative and delicious, offering a range of dishes from tacos and churros to vegan plates and gluten free options. I loved the fresh guacamole, the vibrant ceviche and the tender carne asada, and the churros for dessert were divine. The cocktails are some of the best in the city, with inventive mixes and classics prepared perfectly. Service is attentive and friendly without being intrusive, and the staff are happy to explain dishes and suggest pairings. There are also great local beers, wines and a full bar on site, plus free WiFi for when you need it. It is suitable for dinner with friends or a romantic date, and they welcome solo diners and groups. There is a wheelchair accessible washroom, high chairs for kids, and they accept reservations as well as credit and debit cards. Parking is easy with both street and lot options. Overall, this place combines upscale flavours with a relaxed vibe and leaves you with memorable tastes and a desire to return soon…

Had dinner and drinks before the Oilers game and had a great experience. The basa fish entree was super flavourful and cooked perfectly… so good. Even though the restaurant was very busy on a game night, our server Alexa was very friendly and attentive who made sure my meal was gluten free. Overall experience was excellent, I’d definitely recommend.
