    This was our first time here and it was absolutely phenomenal! The atmosphere was great, and the place is absolutely stunning. Some of the best food I have ever had - the charred carrots are definitely a must! Cocktails are also very good. Every staff member we interacted with was so kind and personable. We will absolutely be back!

    Nice place to go on the Dartmouth side. Great drinks and moody atmosphere. We would probably try the fish and bread instead of the smaller steak and green salad. The salad seemed trendy but not to my taste. We would get the carrots again, they were very nice!

    We had appetizers and then had various roasted veggies and beef dishes for our mains, all of which we shared. We were disappointed that the roasted small potatoes had been removed from the menu, they were delicious (it was explained that the restaurant was going for lighter and healthier choices, but we did not think a few tiny potatoes could be considered life-threatening (ha). After the meal we were told that the restaurant served neither coffees or teas, we found this to be a bit unusual…oh well, we survived! We found our Server to be efficient, friendly and knowledgeable, the food to be very tasty and well presented, and finally, the restaurant to be attractive, warm and inviting. Sip will be on our return list.

    We did not have food, we had cocktails before Oxalis. It was our first time there and will definitely be back! Server/bartender was so attentive and overheard one guest saying she wish she perfected what I had so the server got her mine! She insisted on company but my friend insisted on paying and her husband drank it! We really enjoyed it!!!
