" My experience at Café Lunette was a memorable one! For the special three-course dinner, I enjoyed a fantastic scallop dish that was so fresh it could only have come straight from the ocean. The next course was a flavorful lamb shank paired with seasonal vegetables. My dessert, a chocolate torte, was rich yet perfectly balanced and melted in my mouth. Although service was a tad slow at times, the quality of food made it easy to overlook that. I would be back! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had a mixed dining experience at Café Lunette. While the atmosphere was warm and inviting, my meal was not what I had hoped. I tried the seafood pasta, which lacked seasoning and was rather bland. On the bright side, the staff was courteous, and the desserts were delightful—especially the panna cotta! It may not have been my best meal, but I'd consider giving it another shot in the future. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had a poor experience at Café Lunette. Although the ambiance felt cozy, the service was lacking as the staff seemed overwhelmed and inattentive. The food was decent, but the lobster roll had so much truffle oil that it became overwhelming. I hoped to feel the French charm but didn't quite get it during this visit. Maybe there were just too many customers at the time. " (*Curated Review*)

" Our date night at Café Lunette was charming! The ambiance is perfect for an intimate dinner. The wide selection of wines complemented our meal beautifully. I tried the coq au vin and it was rich and flavorful. Service was attentive but not overbearing. I think we’ve found our new go-to restaurant in Halifax! " (*Curated Review*)

" The lovely experience we had at Café Lunette should be celebrated! From the delectable charcuterie platter to the fluffy soufflé, everything was beautifully presented and tasted divine. The cocktail pairings were spot on, enhancing the flavorful dishes we savored. As a bonus, the service was charming—helpful without hovering, adding to the overall enjoyment of the evening. If you're looking for a great evening out, definitely check out this gem. " (*Curated Review*)

" Although I enjoyed my meal at Café Lunette, there were a few hiccups that detracted from the experience. The egg dishes we ordered were delicious, but taking a long time to arrive from the kitchen was frustrating. When the food finally reached our table, everything was well-received except the muffins which were too dry. The service was friendly but could have been more efficient. I would likely return but would hope for a smoother experience next time. " (*Curated Review*)

" Had an enjoyable lunch at Café Lunette yesterday! This quaint café offers an experience that reflects the charm of French dining. I ordered the quiche and it was delicious—very light and tasty. The only downside was that I felt the portions were a bit small for the price, but I didn't mind much since everything else was quite pleasant. Worth a stop when in Halifax! " (*Curated Review*)
