“We went there last night for my birthday and rarely have I been so completely satisfied by a dining experience. Absolutely incredible, warm, engaging service complete with perfect suggestions that were right up our alley, a stunning cocktail program (my favorite was the Secret Garden, pictured below) and food that was truely delightful. We had the mushroom toast to start which was stunning and may have convinced me that I actually DO like mushrooms. My husband had the ribs which he said were perfectly done, not hiding behind the sauce but rather very nicely complimented by it, and I had the linguine, which was just so delicious, rich and flavourful but not overdone. We shared the cake that had chocolate mousse and espresso, a perfect cap to the meal. Everything was beautifully complimented by the exquisite décor and happy atmosphere. Thank you so much for such a lovely experience and putting so much effort into the little details, it made my birthday incredibly special!”

“Went here tonight for our 3-year wedding anniversary. Everything was perfect! We had a nice corner table looking out on Queen Street. Appetizers were delicious (1/2 dozen raw oysters, steak bread 2.0) oysters were so fresh, they didn't even really need the accoutrements. Steak bread was outstanding, and came recommended by a friend. For our mains we both had steak (Ribeye and Striploin Special). Both were cooked perfectly and the flavour was amazing. Sides were piping hot and generous! No room for dessert, but we may have stopped for a scoop of cows on the way home (everyone knows ice cream melts in the cracks). Can't recommend highly enough for a date or special night out. We will be back!”

“This is my first time in Charlottetown, PEI, and I was highly encouraged to try this place. My impression of the pizza is that it's very good, but not $25 for a small pizza good. I've had much better pizza elsewhere for a better price, so I have mixed feelings about Piatto. If the pizza was $15, then I'd say it's worth it, but $25 is crazy.

The pizza is light and crispy. Nice amount of cheese to sauce ratio. Crust isn't too heavy, so that's a plus. Although the pepperoni looks strange, it tasted good. Not overly greasy. Not undercooked. Done just right.

The staff is phenomenal. I had interactions with three lovely people, and they all made me feel welcome.

The atmosphere is nice, but I just prefer a less open concept when dining. I don't like sitting at a table where there's a lot of people all around me, but that's just a personal preference.

4/5 overall. I'd likely eat there again, but will try other places first.”

“Such a gem to have the Culinary Institute in town! You cannot find this type of menu anywhere else, especially one that rotates through the year! It’s always lovely to meet the students in training and be absolutely delighted by the wonderful menus they are preparing. Delightfully pleasant service, fantastic food (everything from the bread to the dessert!) and overall lovely atmosphere!

Vegetarian options: Quite a few vegetarian items on the menu, not sure about vegan though

Parking: Easy parking right out front”

“Dropped in while touring Charlettown – we got right in and sat at the perfect table, it was inside but with the windows/doors open, it felt like you were outside but temp was it was much cooler. Service was quite spotty – it took a long time to get water and drink orders but eventually someone showed up. It didn’t even seem that busy, there were plenty of staff hovering around the back bar. I ordered the BBQ Burger with a Caesar salad– wife ordered the salmon and easy kid order a cheese burger with fries and difficult kid order the nachos. BBQ Burger was delicious, and the cesar salad was exceptionally delicious, I wasn’t expecting that different taste, next time I would order the big salad as a meal. BBQ Burger, no complaints, it was tasty – easy kid gave the burger a 9.7 and picky kid gave the nachos a 6.7 because there wasn’t enough cheese, yet she did eat the whole plate. Wife said the salmon was cooked to perfection but there were no herbs – there didn’t seem to be a lot of vegetables. There was rhubarb as a vegetable along with small chunks of carrot. The rice was crunchy but it was good. Seems like a great spot – according to other reviews, might have been an off day with service but it does seem to happen randomly.”

So weird of the taste. The soup of chicken ramen was like instant noodle soup, I guessed they use the pack of that msg instead of the pork bones soup. It could trick the nonsense western people or never taste the true Japanese food. I never tasted it in my life.”

“I had such a wonderful visit. During my first trip to Charlottetown, I was looking for a local sour to try. I brought over lunch from across the hall (Hojo’s sushi burrito) before choosing to get a here.

I spent over an hour at the bar and she was attentive and answered me kindly when I had questions.

Definitely try the maple butter tart, delicious.”

“Wow! Such a beautiful and unique place! I stayed in PEI back in May and had a couple days in Charlottetown and this was so nice to go and check out! The shops were adorable, the people friendly, and the food delicious! I got this panini at this Italian place and it was TO DIE FOR! 10/10 would recommend to anyone!

“Everything is done so well here. It’s hard to pick a favourite! The lobster roll is fantastic, and the bun for the lobster roll is the absolute best you’re going to find. Crab cakes are delicious, fries are perfect. Pot pies are so filling. The chicken veggie wraps are my favourite to grab for a quick lunch, the tomato jam on them is my favourite. The energy cookies always fix my sweet tooth, and their breakfast sandwiches will cure a hangover. The iced coffee is delicious and made with the perfect amount of milk/cream consistently. I also buy the biscuits in the summer to use for strawberry shortcake when I don’t feel like baking my own, they’re the perfect vessel. Love getting the dips and pita chips to have with a cold beer in the summer too. All of this to say, I’m a huge fan and love supporting local, and you should definitely go here and support Tyler and Christine, they know what they’re doing! (And to the rest of the staff, I see you hustling in the kitchen!) I’d love to work here, but I’m afraid I’d just have to hand my pay directly back to them because of all of the food I would buy every day. Lol”

The staff was incredibly proactive and generous, offering free soda as part of a promotion they were running. It was such a thoughtful touch that added to the overall positive vibe of the meal. I highly recommend this place for both the delicious food and the warm hospitality!”

“Wholesome family business with great tasting Vietnamese food and delightful service. I actually got a cute little performance from their kids practicing the piano whilst here!

I was getting a bit over all the lobster rolls/burger and chips, so decided to come here - a little away from the tourist crowds along the waterfront and Queen St.
The Chicken Pho/Chicken Noodle Soup was delicious, as were the Fried Vegetarian Spring Rolls and the Icecream with puréed avocado (definitely worth trying if you haven’t had it before). Also very affordable!

Absolutely worth trying whilst in Charlottetown.”

Upstreet Craft Brewing 41 Allen St, Charlottetown Brewery • $$

“Great brewery in Charlottetown! I walked here from the cruise ship port- I would take a rideshare next time as the walk wasn't particularly scenic.
The Neon Friday 4.02 was, by far, my favorite beer. The day I visited, they had 10 beers on tap plus three canned cocktails and one seltzer. They offer flights of four.
The place was very clean, and the beertenders were very friendly.
Glad I made the trek to Upstreet!”

“Dropped in while touring Charlettown – we got right in and sat at the perfect table, it was inside but with the windows/doors open, it felt like you were outside but temp was it was much cooler. Service was quite spotty – it took a long time to get water and drink orders but eventually someone showed up. It didn’t even seem that busy, there were plenty of staff hovering around the back bar. I ordered the BBQ Burger with a Caesar salad– wife ordered the salmon and easy kid order a cheese burger with fries and difficult kid order the nachos. BBQ Burger was delicious, and the cesar salad was exceptionally delicious, I wasn’t expecting that different taste, next time I would order the big salad as a meal. BBQ Burger, no complaints, it was tasty – easy kid gave the burger a 9.7 and picky kid gave the nachos a 6.7 because there wasn’t enough cheese, yet she did eat the whole plate. Wife said the salmon was cooked to perfection but there were no herbs – there didn’t seem to be a lot of vegetables. There was rhubarb as a vegetable along with small chunks of carrot. The rice was crunchy but it was good. Seems like a great spot – according to other reviews, might have been an off day with service but it does seem to happen randomly.”

“This is my first time in Charlottetown, PEI, and I was highly encouraged to try this place. My impression of the pizza is that it's very good, but not $25 for a small pizza good. I've had much better pizza elsewhere for a better price, so I have mixed feelings about Piatto. If the pizza was $15, then I'd say it's worth it, but $25 is crazy.

The pizza is light and crispy. Nice amount of cheese to sauce ratio. Crust isn't too heavy, so that's a plus. Although the pepperoni looks strange, it tasted good. Not overly greasy. Not undercooked. Done just right.

The staff is phenomenal. I had interactions with three lovely people, and they all made me feel welcome.

The atmosphere is nice, but I just prefer a less open concept when dining. I don't like sitting at a table where there's a lot of people all around me, but that's just a personal preference.

4/5 overall. I'd likely eat there again, but will try other places first.”

“It's always our first stop when arriving in Charlottetown. It was originally suggested to us by a security guard in the parking lot (thank you so much!) The staff is so friendly, and the food is amazing! Highly recommend anything from the menu, but especially the pulled pork Sammy or the fish and chips along with a local beer!

Vegetarian options: There are vegetarian options, like the PEI burger, it is very good!

Parking: There are some parking spots on the street with a parking meter (limited time), but the paid parking lots are all within 10-15 min walking distance. They are cheap, have plenty of space, located in the centre, great way to leave the car there and then discover the town on foot.”
