Just south of the High Level Bridge is Highlevel Diner, a local favorite for casual breakfast, lunch or dinner. Daily breakfast choices are plentiful and hearty, with gluten-free huevos rancheros, veggie omelets, daily quiches and classic eggs Benedicts among the savory selections and giant cinnamon buns served with caramel bourbon sauce among the sweet. Lunch and dinner menus are varied, but you can’t go wrong with the Ural burger, cottage pie or the Thursday night Ukrainian special (consisting of handmade pierogis, borscht, garlic sausage and cabbage rolls).

AAA / Katie BroomeThe Sherlock Holmes Pub
10012 101A Ave.
Summer in Edmonton is patio season, and one of the best Edmonton restaurants where you can enjoy a meal and a drink outside is The Sherlock Holmes Pub. Sandwiched between downtown office towers and bordered by a white picket fence, the English-style pub draws a crowd for its prime people watching, live music and classic pub grub. Fill up on poutine, wings, fish and chips, steak sandwiches made with AAA Alberta beef and bread pudding for dessert. Live music takes place on Thursday and Friday evenings (at 8 and 9 p.m., respectively) and Saturday at 1:30 p.m. and 9 p.m.

Diners rave about the flavorful tacos and lively atmosphere at Tres Carnales Taqueria, a quick-serve Mexican restaurant in downtown Edmonton. You may have trouble deciding which kind of street-food-style taco or torta (sort of like a sandwich) to order; carnivores will like the slow-roasted pork, grilled Alberta flank steak and marinated chicken, while vegetarians and vegans can opt for the sautéed mushrooms topped with queso or the marinated cauliflower with pineapple. Order a side of house-made guacamole and chips (and maybe a sangria or two) and you’re good to go.

Reservations are a must for dinner at
Tzin Wine and Tapas, a tiny restaurant tucked among historic buildings on the 4th Street Promenade (a.k.a. 104 Street). Personalized service and excellent wine pairings make this one of the top places to eat in Edmonton for a romantic meal. The menu is small but mighty; the Alberta beef flat iron steak served over a smoked sea salt caramel sauce will melt in your mouth. If you’re feeling indecisive, ask for the “Feed Me” menu item and the chef will prepare you something off-menu tailored to your preferences.
