"Having had the good fortune to be treated to a fabulous dinner at XIX Nineteen’s Terwillegar location a while back business dinner so no pics or notes for review), we just had to try their St. Albert location on our recent return trip/food tour in Edmonton. And we’re happy to report that the St. Albert location didn’t disappoint.After having enjoyed some spectacular main plates during our earlier Terwillegar visit the 42 day dry aged Picanha Steak and Chilean Sea Bass were both fabulous) we decided to design our own “tapas style” meal from the St. Albert location’s fascinating Starters selection.But our first order of business was to follow the recommendation of a friend and try their cocktails. They have a small but imaginative selection of craft cocktails, and an equally small but mighty selection of classics. We decided on two from the craft section: a Passion Fruit Piña Colada Martini ‘cause one of us loves all things passion fruit), and; an English Garden ‘cause one of us love all things gin). Both cocktails were outstanding, with special kudos to the mixologist for adding freshly cracked black pepper to the English Garden. We’ve never seen that done before and trust us when we say it takes an already classic cocktail to another level.We ordered four Starters to share: Double Smoked Bacon Wrapped Scallops; Gruyere Cheese Croquettes; Buttermilk Fried Pacific Oysters, and; Gorgonzola Mussels. Everything was accompanied by two glasses of a crisp, delicious New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc. Every dish was delicious, with particular honours to the Gorgonzola Mussels the accompanying Kennebec Fries were cooked to perfection, always a treat) and the Bacon Wrapped Scallops. And if you haven’t had XIX’s Tomato Bacon Jam you’re missing out.We asked our very attentive server to space the plate into three “courses”, and she and the kitchen team nailed the pacing. This deserves mention because we often ask for this kind of consideration, and all too often the pacing we request breaks down pretty quickly.Our selections allowed us a rare treat dessert! So we chose one liquid option; the Bourbon Cherry Float an insanely delicious Bourbon forward delight), and one more traditional offering; the XIX Signature Warm Butter Cake essentially butter held together by a deeply satisfying cake batter and bathed in fresh berries and coulis so good).If you’re looking for well executed fine dining level food in an upscale but relaxed atmosphere, professional service and fair price for the quality on offer $250 all taxes and gratuity included) you really ought to give XIX Nineteen a go.Highly recommended."

"We met friends to celebrate my husband and my 50 birthday. I was a little disappointed with the ambiance of the restaurant. It was very average. Trying to be a fine dining establishment, but falling short. First, we were put into a secluded corner. This would be a great table, however, it was right beside the door that went out to the patio and second, we were right by the waiter/waitress station. People were going in and out and by the end of our dinner, the sunlight was shinning on to our table, creating a blinding moment for my friends husband each time the door opened.As for the food, I thought it could have been better. I had their special, Halibut on Spaetzle ( a German noodle). The Halibut was about an inch and a half wide and four inches long and I had no Spaetzle, instead they put the fish no top of spaghettini. So disappointing and it was very average tasting. My husband liked his chicken and our friends shared a meat dish with beets. They said it was "alright".I am happy that I tried Nineteen XIX, but I won't be back. Edmonton has too many fine dining restaurants that that are amazing. My suggestion is to try Nineteen XIX as a last minute, when your first, second and third choice restaurants are booked."
