Tribute is a unique restaurant located on the Halifax Waterfront. Defined not by a specific cuisine, but by a place - Nova Scotia - Tribute sources the best local ingredients to pay homage to authentic, impactful dishes with international influences, showcased through live fire and charcoal cookery in an open kitchen-to-dining room. With a fun and elevated approach to East Coast hospitality, Tribute is open for dinner Wednesday through Sunday, offering a chef’s tasting menu and wider options a la carte, paired with nimble wine and cocktail lists. Menus will change often to highlight seasonal ingredients from Nova Scotian farmers and producers.

    Absolutely delicious meal at Tribute. The best food in the HRM at the moment....solid unpretentious service and very well executed dishes and a wine list with some nice nuggets...Cote de Nuit Villages that punched way above its weight was a nice surprise! Can't recommend enough...they just need some vanilla ice cream for that triple chocolate brownie lol

    This IS the best dining experience in Halifax. Never misses, everything is delicious, unexpected and yet somehow familiar. Great cocktails, wine and a cozy relaxed atmosphere.

    Excellent food and service. Small portions for the main dish (from a la carte menu) but very much expected in this type of environment. The quality of the food made up for this as it was outstanding! Will definitely be back.
