I went there for my birthday dinner after hearing some commercials on the radio for their new menu. It was passable, but not good quality for the money. There are plenty more restaurants in the area with better food and prices. Not awful, just not great. Because it is a hotel restaurant, there are lots of kids which ruin it... More

It was okay. Same place you eat breakfast if staying at the Cambridge Suites. Menue not very extensive or inspiring but not badly cooked. I eat there once and had the seafood chowder which was quite tasty.

I took Caesar Salad which was really nice (beware veggies it had bacon in it) Also hawaii pizza which was a bit strange, no tomato base but some kind of sweet fruity base.

Dofskys Grill is linked to, but not owned by the Cambridge Suites Hotel. We were staying overnight, it was pouring with rain and the menu looked reasonable so we decided to stay dry and eat at Dofskys. We regretted it. Our starters were poor. I had the steamed mussels. The sauce was ok but they were served luke warm. My... More

Have been to Dofsky's several times over several years. Their menu is varied, check their website . They always have a good array of pasta dishes, and items like their fish and chips, their haddock dinners are very nice . Their burger platters are also very good. Desserts are good too. The restaurant is generally quiet even when it is... More

We are visitors to Halifax and this evening we went to Dorfsky's to dine. We had planned to use an Entertainment book coupon good on an entree up to a fixed amount when purchasing a second meal. Well, that was our plan and I expected it would be as uneventful as it had been there in years' past. The only... More

Our hotel offered a free continental breakfast at Dofsky’s Grill. The breakfast was nothing special – just your run of the mill cereals, fruit, muffins, bread. Your hot options were oatmeal and hard-boiled eggs. We tried a little of everything. The muffins were good – fresh out of the oven. The fruit was very disappointing – definitely not fresh –... More

I have been reminded after another dinner at Dofsky's how good this little hotel restaurant is. They serve some of the best seafood chowder in town, and their menu is diverse and reasonably priced. Although it is a sophisticated restaurant, its link to the hotel makes it fare game for eating with kids and a nice option for parents who... More
