Restaurant Bar Mediterranean restaurant Lounge Middle eastern restaurant

😠 I visited 902 restaurant earlier today and unfortunately had an extremely disappointing experience. My party and I ordered meals worth around $250 and we were left with a bad taste in our mouths, both figuratively and literally. First of all, the ambiance was terrible. It was unpleasant to look at.... People often mention rice, chicken, good,

    I went 902 on the second day after opening because they had a special 50% off shawarma and fried chicken. I went for the shawarma, but I arrived late and the only available item on their menu was fried chicken. They told us upon arrival that it'll take 45 minutes and we decided to wait. It took longer than that, but they apologized and it was only the second day so understandable. The chicken came with garlic sauce and fries. It was fresh and hot, but not juicy. I never like fried chicken so my review could be biased. I didn't enjoy the atmosphere so I'll probably be doing take-out in the future. I like the downtown 902's atmosphere better.

    I visited 902 restaurant earlier today and unfortunately had an extremely disappointing experience. My party and I ordered meals worth around $250 and we were left with a bad taste in our mouths, both figuratively and literally. First of all, the ambiance was terrible. It was unpleasant to look at. We didn't feel comfortable or relaxed in the environment, which is a key part of any dining experience. There was no heating in peak winters and we were provided with a small portable heater which didn’t help. The quality of the food was equally terrible. It was apparent that some of the dishes were frozen and then reheated, leading to a loss of flavor and texture. The meat, especially the beef, was extremely dry and shrunk. The outside was burnt, while the inside was hard and rubbery. The Mandi rice dish was also a major disappointment, not tasting or looking like real Mandi rice. There were a few positives, however. The garlic and spicy sauce were decent, but not enough to save the meal. The broasted chicken looked healthy and crispy, but it was unfortunately the only dish that met any standards. The French fries, chicken and fish all seemed to have been cooked in the same oil, resulting in a strong fishy smell. This was not good for members of our group who don't like the smell of fish, as it interfered with the enjoyment of their meal. Overall, I regret visiting this restaurant and would not go there again. I will be attaching photos of the dishes we received, and I will leave it up to the readers to judge the quality for themselves.

    Delicious does not BEGIN to describe the food! We ordered in delivery via Uber Eats. The food was hot & presentation was impeccable! The flavours were aromatic...the food, oh the food...it was if you were being served in someone's home. My mouth is watering think of this meal. The hummus was fresh as can be, & the kebabs and the chicken were delicious. The salad was crisp and refreshing! We ordered the Family Meal for 2 and it was bountiful! Plenty of food and a little snack for later. We both agreed it was the most delicious treat we've had in awhile! We will definitely be ordering again! Highly recommended!!!👍👍⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ all the way!

    We had organized our ladies event at 902 Restaurant in Bedford location recently and I have to say I was impressed with all the arrangements and service provided. The food was deliciously amazing and everything was so smooth in organizing such a big event of around 50 ladies with no hiccups at all. It was only possible because of the Restaurant Manager Naela Al Kurdi and Jason. They are true professionals and know how to satisfy the customer needs. We would like to organize more events in the future because of these two amazing people. Everyone had a wonderful time. Thank you Naela and Jason, truly appreciate your superb management. 👏👏👏

    I order spicy lamb kebab they literally give me the leftovers kebabs from previous night it was super dry. I went there at 11:40 am which they just open for the day. I even confront the cook and he literally had no answer I could tell from his face he was ashamed of what he did.

    Overall great food! We ordered a tandoori wrap as well as lentil soup and another main. Everything was well cooked and portions were pretty generous. The tandoori wrap was really the star though the meat was absolutely perfectly cooked, well spiced with a bit of crispiness from the grilling. Our second main was delicious as well, the hummus was the perfect texture and the salad was flavorful. Service was good. The decor is nice and the seating is pretty unique with regular tables as well as lounge style areas. Parking was kind of annoying as there isn't much. The only main downside is there was a bit of a strong smell of smoke. At least in the lounge area where we were sitting.

    I purchased the lamb kofta with rice and it was all fairly underwhelming. The lamb was dry as if the reheated it instead of making it fresh and the seasoning wasn't as well done as other place in Halifax.The rice was slightly chewy instead of soft and I'm not completely sure if that's how it's supposed to be but what was the real issue was the absurd amount of raw garlic chunks all throughout the rice. I personally think you guys should focus more on quality than quantity because I had enough rice to feed a village but with all of those garlic Chunks it went straight in the trash. The only redeeming factor was the the 2 sauces included might have been some of the best I've had. The garlic sauce beats out others like mezza by far.

    I wish if there is less than one start! I found a worm moving around the hot sauce and when I told the owner about it, he was like oh I think it's a piece of rice how come it's still moving if it's cooked!! That's just disrespect.. the place is so stinky inside... I will never go back and I don't think anyone should eat there! I am editing this to reply to you: Your server saw the worm himself and told you about it and asked you to deal with it and you just ignored it untill he apologized about it after I paid. Yes the worm was in the chili not the food it self. Anyways, yes it was my mistake that so finished the meal and tried to be nice dealing with you guys but so should be just left and post about this dirty restaurant.

    Beautiful theme! Reasonably priced food, meals were served hot. Great customer service. Menu filled with lots of options to pick from. Bathrooms could be a bit cleaner. I am new in town and will definitely come back and recommend to friends and family.

    Food was delicious but I felt the rice needs to be cooked more. More than enough portions of food in my order which was Roasted Lamb Shank and nice presentation. Service was really good. It is in the Bedford Highway, there are different Mediterranean restaurants around and this one is a worth try.

    Delicious food and a friendly owner. Just visiting Halifax and saw it up from our stay. Gave them a 4 because we only ate here once. 👍. Prices and servings are very good.

    Went last night, the gentleman who was at the counter was very nice and helpful. The food was amazing, the baklava was also good. I took a take out menu for future orders. I have enough leftover from last night for lunch today!

🫤 Overall experience was not pleasant. This was recommended by my friend, so we thought to give it a try. Bartenders was fantastic, very professional and helpful all around, however, the waitress on the other side was completely different. Not only she forget to check on our table for about 35 minutes...
