Casual Dining & Comfort Food in Edmonton
These are some of my go-to choices for a casual sit-down meal in south Edmonton. They’re familiar comfort-food restaurants where I can get pizza, burgers or a classic chicken dinner without turning it into an expensive night out.
Boston Pizza has some sentimental value for us because my girlfriend and I had our first date here, and we still come back for occasions like our anniversary. We usually share one of the New York-style square pizzas, but I also like trying the season...
Boston Pizza Heritage | Family Restaurant and Sports Bar
Montana’s is one of our casual choices when we’re around South Edmonton Common. I don’t have one permanent favourite here, which actually makes it a good place for me when I feel like changing things up. The last time I went, I had the Canadian Burge...

I keep things pretty traditional at Swiss Chalet. My usual choice is the Quarter Chicken Dinner with fries, gravy and a dinner roll. It’s simple comfort food and one of those places where I generally already know what I’m ordering before I arrive.

Sushi, Japanese & Vietnamese Food in Edmonton
These are my south Edmonton picks when I’m in the mood for sushi, poke bowls, Vietnamese noodles or something a little different from our usual casual restaurants.
Tokyo Express is an easy option when we want sushi or poke bowls close to Century Park. The poke bowls are my favourite, especially going half-and-half so I can get more variety instead of choosing just one option. I like being able to put together a...
Tokyo Express — Century Park
I’m pretty open with what I order at Spring Roll Kitchen. I usually pick some kind of noodle dish with vegetables and meat rather than sticking to one exact meal. I also really like their Vietnamese coffees, which are one of the things that make this...
Spring Roll Kitchen — Century Park
Mikado is one of my choices when I specifically want a sit-down sushi meal. I honestly like a lot of their sushi, so I’m happy trying different things, but the Rainbow Roll is probably my favourite. We normally visit the Southside location.
Mikado Sushi & Robata
Breakfast & Brunch Restaurants in Edmonton
These are my favourite south Edmonton choices for breakfast or brunch, with everything from breakfast poutine and crêpes to a hearty breakfast bowl.
The breakfast poutine is my favourite here, especially with a strawberry milkshake. I do find Tutti Frutti more expensive than some other breakfast options, so it isn’t necessarily my everyday breakfast choice, but those two items are what keep bring...
Tutti Frutti Edmonton South, Edmonton, Alberta
My pick at Cora is the Sunshine Panini-Crêpe. Their menu has a lot to choose from, but that’s the meal that stands out for me and the one I’d recommend trying based on my own visits.
Cora Edmonton South — Breakfast and Lunch Restaurant
The Blackstone Bowl is my favourite at Ricky’s. I like having a filling breakfast bowl rather than always going with a standard eggs-and-toast breakfast, and the South Common location makes it another convenient choice when we’re in that part of Edmo...
Ricky’s All Day Grill — South Common
Seafood & Fish and Chips in Edmonton
From traditional fish and chips to sit-down seafood restaurants, these are Edmonton spots I enjoy when I'm in the mood for fish or seafood. I'll keep adding places as I try more around the city, including my favourite dishes and what I like about eac...
Haddock is my choice at Brits. I normally get two pieces with chips, but if four of us are eating together, we’ll go for the eight-piece family pack instead. It’s one of the places I think of when I specifically want fish and chips rather than a gene...
Brits Fish & Chips
My order at Winston’s is also pretty straightforward: two pieces of haddock with chips, or the eight-piece family option when four of us are going. It’s another Edmonton spot I keep in mind when I’m specifically craving a traditional fish-and-chips m...
Winston’s Fish & Chips
Ironically, I like Red Lobster without really being into lobster! I enjoy seafood in general and like having a larger menu to choose from, so I don’t have one permanent order here. It’s more of a place where I look through the seafood options and cho...
Red Lobster Seafood | Canada
Date Night & Special Occasion Restaurants in Edmonton
These are places I’m more likely to choose for a date, anniversary or occasional nicer dinner. I enjoy all three, but they’re more expensive than most of our regular restaurant choices, so we tend to save them for once in a while.
Chicken Alfredo is my go-to at Sorrentino’s. I really enjoy it, but I find Sorrentino’s fairly expensive compared with our regular restaurant choices, so it’s somewhere I’m more likely to visit for a special occasion than an everyday meal.
Sorrentino’s — Century Park
The Oven Roasted Salmon is my favourite at Earls. Like some of the other nicer restaurants on this list, I find it fairly expensive, so we don’t go particularly often. It works better for us as an occasional dinner or special-event restaurant.
Earls Kitchen + Bar — South Edmonton Common
Pasta is obviously what brings me here, and the Penne Gorgonzola is my favourite. I really enjoy their pasta, but it’s noticeably more expensive than a lot of the restaurants we normally visit, so this is another place I save for an occasional meal r...
