Sad to see and eat

Once again my fiancé are saddened to see one of our favourite places slide into the abyss. About twice a month after church, we like to visit the Redwood Grill for brunch. I don't know if they have changed staff in the kitchen or have just given up on creating good food and providing good service. This time we both... more

Excellent on all levels

Friendly staff, fantastic food, and reasonable price. Simply put well worth going to even if you're not staying at the hotel.

Slow Service and Average Food

We' ve been to the Redwood Grill before; however this recent experience was disappointing...we waited over 40 minutes plus for our lunches to arrive and the food was okay, nothing to wow about. We ordered the panini (very greasy!), the salmon entree was meh...my Thai pork pasta was floating in a ocean of sauce .... Not sure whether we will... more

Wonderful food made fresh with care

We loved dining at the Redwood Grill Restaurant - WOW WOW WOW! We are foodies and let me tell you, the chef here does amazing food with the freshest possible ingredients. The Roasted tomato and goat cheese salad was so good, we ordered it several times. In fact, the restaurant was so good, we ate there three nights in a... more

Ok

Have eaten here a few tines and my previous experiences were a lot better than this visit.
They had no host and not enough wait staff for the number of people there.
My companions both ordered the chicken teriyaki stir fry and were given the Thai version instead. They found it too spicy for their liking considering it wasn't what... more

Another wonderful meal

Had the opportunity to eat here again while visiting halifax. To start, we were met with very friendly staff and seated quickly. The atmosphere was comfortable and we were able to enjoy some live music provided by another group dining in the restaurant at the time. I ordered seafood linguine and my wife ordered the seafood crepes and both were... more

Excellent meal and service

The service is fast and the servers are happy and pleasant. The seafood crepes were amazing in a rich lobster cream sauce!
I've been here a few times now and recommend pastas, entrees and the tex mex burger. I'm giving only 4 stars because some dishes such as the crispy chicken sandwich and artichoke dip are good but not on... more

Good Food

If you are in the Clayton Park area and looking for very good food at reasonable prices, then the Redwood Grill is the place, the grill is part of the Future Inn. They have a wide ranging menu for young and old. The appetizers are a good way to start and they have a wonderful Spinach and Artichoke dip. The... more

Good Food at Reasonable Prices

This is a great restaurant located within the Future Inns Halifax. It is quite large, quiet and their food is really good. If you stay at the Future Inns you will receive a food discount.
The servers are excellent and very pleasant.
Great spot to eat.

Cozy atmosphere Great food

I always find something on their menu that I love and the service is always prompt and friendly.
There are lots of healthy options and delicious desserts.
They are child friendly and my son enjoyed his meals with us.
It is located close the Bayer's Lake and is a great place to stop when you want a little peace and... more

Thai pork is divine

My favorite menu item here is the Thai Pork. Just delicious. I can't even comment on any other entree, because I always get the same thing. Also, the spring rolls are yummy. Pleasant atmosphere.

Very,Very Good

My husband and I dropped in for supper and what a great meal we both had.I am on a bit of a health kick so my choice was Chicken and rice soup with Bruschetta and both were very tasty.My husband had the Rack of Ribs and they were very tender and according to my husband quite delicious.Our server was brand... more

Might try again

Recommended by friends so decided to try it. Might try again but not overly impressed. Ordered a caesar salad with panini. I know that people have different tastes in salad but this one was old lettuce which was drenched in dressing and covered in bacon which made it even greasier. Worst salad in ages. The chicken panini was ok but... more

Just Once

The restaurant had been recommended to me, and I was looking forward to a nice meal.
I was really disappointed the food was barely o.k.
The service was great.

Simply the best

QUALITY: I love the food here. I am a repeat customer many times over and only once have I ever not been terribly crazy about the meal (the burger, eek..., salad= save your money!) but that has never stopped me from returning. The fries are delicious and the seafood is always tasty. The read is nice and soft and the... more

Excellent food at affordable price

Pasta dishes are excellent. We go there with several people who have different tastes and everyone always is pleased with the service and quality of food.

Amazing Food

I went to the Redwood Grill because a co-worker had recommended I try the seafood crepes there. I ordered the crab cakes as an appetizer, which were delicious, and the seafood crepes for the main course and it was hands down one of the best meals I have ever had, it was cooked just right and had lots of fresh... more

Great Cheesecake-Average Meal

The best part of the meal was dessert. The Cheesecake of the Day was wonderful and the Apple Jacks were decadent. However, it did not start out so great. The crab cakes were deep fried which I found puzzling. The Gourmet Flatbread did not live up to its' name. It was dry and flavorless.
The stir-fry was dry and needed... more

always delicious

The food here is always well prepared - had coconut shrimp which was divine and the steak -it was cooked exactly as ordered which is a plus in my book!!! Service was very good.

Great Suburban Eaterh

This restaurant is in the Future Inn at the junction of Hwy 102 and Lakewood Drive. The chef is excellent, and the staff are very welcoming. Great value for money.

great food great service

the staff was very friendly..food was delicious, one of my favourite places to eat...been there several time

Good place, well located & attached to hotel

Was here last night. Well located, clean, great service at a decent price. Et me go in little more detail.
Location: lacewood very close to Bayers lake for shopping and also not far from halifax downtown.
Hotel: attached to future inn, nice hotel with great service
Decor: okay
Menu: variety of items but your basic restaurant
Service: very good
Food:... more

Great service

We were a party of 5 and 3 ordered the haddock which they loved and said it was cooked properly. Another of our guests had the lamb which was on special that evening. It was just okay and looked overdone - not what he had expected we feel. I had their spinach salad with a grilled chicken breast - now... more

Overprice

It's a nice looking restaurant but I found it was understaffed and overpriced. The food was good but it also has a limited menu. It's located in the Future Inns hotel, so expect kids to be present if you're looking for a date location.

Family meal

It was exactly what a family restaurant should be good uncomplicated food with very helpful waiter service.

Eat here all the time

A great restaurant with loyal clientele. We go here all the time and enjoy the menu, surroundings and staff.

Crepe Review

Crepes were wonderful and the service was very good. Very casual atmosphere, nothing fancy. The menu had a good selection to meet all needs.

Halifax Trip

The food was very good and so was the service. It was part of the Future Inns Hotel and so it was easy to get to.

Not overly impressed

Went with a group of people to the Redwood at lunch. Everyone said the food was 'just ok'.
I had the French Onion soup with Greek salad. It was the worst French Onion Soup I ever had. Zero flavor.
I found the Manager at this place to be a glorified busgirl. She was gruff and never smiled. She was cleaning... more

Best local hotel and dining in my area

Its across the street from me ...nice size portions and friendly staff .

Good steak

This place is in the Future Inn (Bayer's Lake). Prices are above average but the food is good. The steaks e had were done to perfection. The sides were okay. Staff was attentive and friendly.

Consistently Good food for a great price

The Redwood Grill seems to be not a big destination place and can get kind of get lost as a Hotel Restuarant (as part of the Future Inn chain). It seems to be consistently busy but not crazy like the big restaurant chains over at Bayers Lake Business area. We eat here often because it is a great alternative to... more

Awesome food

My husband had the steak and I had the salmon - EXCELLENT food & service - Breakfast is also GREAT

Terrible Experience. Will Never Return

After much drama ensued and a heated argument, the owner told us that she will honour the free birthday meal special, as stated on her signs on every table in the restaurant. Of course she added that she will only be doing this the one time. Well, I am here to tell you that there will never be another time!

Great Haddock

The haddock is great. Highly recommended.
Service is very good.

Terrible, terrible, terrible

I'm stayin at the future inns hotel for a few days and ordered room service here. I ordered the beef soup (daily soup) and the pulled pork sandwich. The soup looked like like something that had been regurgitated and the pork sandwich literally tasted like it was gone bad. There were big lumps of flour on the underside of the... more

Great Gluten Free Options

We stayed at the Future Inn, April 13 - 15th, 2012 and ate one breakfast and one dinner at the restaurant. Since I have Celiac's disease and must eat Gluten Free I reviewed the menu before we went. I noticed they had a lot of gluten free options marked on the menu. And when we went for dinner they knew... more

Great food and service

This is a typical hotel restaurant and as this was my first visit I was not sure what to expect. I was pleasantly surprised as I found both the service and the food to be excellent. I ordered the beef tenderloin, which was cooked perfectly. Even though the restaurant was busy the waitress was still very friendly and fast. Will... more

lots of attention to dietary needs

This is a pleasant restaurant in Clayton Park West which has a calm atmosphere for chatting with dinner companions.. There is a full varied menu. As a bonus,the menu is especially friendly to those on a gluten- free diet.There are several choices plus they offer glutin-free pasta. There are also vegetarian options. Many of their daily soups are vegetarian so... more

Right off the highway

The Redwood Grill is right off the highway, easy to get to and loads of free parking. The food is very good, service is great. Lots to choose from on their menu.

Love the food

Have eaten here for years. The food is great and I still love my favourite chicken and brocolli crepes

Gold Food

Just live down the street and use to come here a lot. Alas no more the last time was without question the worst meal I have had in Halifax

excellent meal

My wife and I had supper at the Redwood this weekend while staying at the Future Inns. The staff was very friendly and the server most pleasant. We both had the seafood linguini which was delicious and had bruschetta as an appetizer which was also quite good. A relaxing atmosphere in the restaurant. Would definitely go back again.

The friendliest server ever

the breakfast was quite good, and the server, Kim, was excellent!

Surprisingly pleased

We stayed at the Future Inn hotel and this is their onsite restaurant. Our room came with a coupon for free breakfast so we took advantage of it.
The meal was excellent and prices are very reasonable. $7.99 for a breakfast of 2 eggs, choice of meats, homefries, toast, coffee/tea and juice. Service was fast and great. Food was cooked... more

A Typical Hotel Restaurant

I was expecting more from this restaurant. I found the service and food average. I was excited when I saw the menu, it looked like a good variety of food. But after tasting the food (twice in 2 days) I was not impressed. It took the waitress 5-10 minutes to come over and get drink orders when we arrived, my... more

Redwood Grill

The Redwood Grill is one of the best kept secrets in Clayton Park. It is a fantastic place to eat and the prices are more then reasonable. If you go, make sure you order the Chicken curry Pasta!

They also have a fantastic brunch on the weekends.

Excellent food that didn't come out of a freezer

The Redwood grill is a great place to get a great meal from fresh ingredients at a very reasonable price. Their teriyaki pork tenderloin and pan fried haddock were superb. Who would have known that you could get this in a chain hotel. Well worth a visit - oh, the staff is excellent!

great made from scatch menu

...often there a couple of times a month.
Much nicer atmoshere and menu than the franchise outlets...
...great fish, homemade fries and sweetpotatoe fries...super thin crust pzza and a reasonable array of entries for finer dining.
Lots of free parking...efficeint and friendly staff...would reconmend to try.... more

One of My favs

I have been traveling to halifax for over 15 years and the Redwood Grill is truly one of my favorite places in the city. The food is fresh and the menu offers something for everyone. I especially enjoy the service from the friendliest and may I say best looking women in town. Hope to be back soon

Beware Beware Beware

Last night being Aug 26, 2008 my wife went to the Redwood Grill at Futures Inn in Halifax, Nova Scotia to celebrate our 36th wedding anniversary. My wife ordered the chicken breast sandwich and I ordered the fish and chips. When the orders came my wife's chicken was absolutely tasteless, slimy and cold. My fish was so old it had... more

I'll start by saying I've only eaten breakfast here, so I can't vouch for their main courses, but some co-workers had nothing but nice things to say about their dinners.

Located in the lobby of the Future Inn, the Redwood has a fairly limited menu, consisting of steak, salads, finger foods, and some seafood. They have an excellent breakfast (get the bacon, it's lean and thick).

Their prices... more
