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.

    Food was excellent, restaurant is beautiful. Server was exceptional. Just felt a little too rushed. Definitely knew that the clock was being watched to move us out of there.

    Our meal was delicious. It was thoughtfully prepared with great attention to every detail. Service was attentive and welcoming. The wine was first rate. Watching all of the action in the kitchen from our seats at the counter made for a very interesting and fun evening.

    Awesome service and awesome food. We let them invent some mocktails for us and we loved them. On the negative side, the portions are somewhat small for the price and there are very few options for vegetarians, but I would still highly recommend it.
