Customer Reviews

Such a fun place to eat at! Their food is some of the best I've had anywhere. Went there a couple of times during my stay in yellowknife, so I got to try a couple of different things. Everything I tried was 10/10. Their shack burger, the brisket donair, the truffle fries... all foods I will never forget!! The atmosphere was amazing, and the terrace is perfect for the sunny days. The staff is also really great and attentive! Also was really happy to see gender neutral bathrooms 🏳️‍🌈
The food was absolutely amazing, and the service was excellent. If you’re visiting Yellowknife, you must try this restaurant. It’s a must-visit! SMOKED BRISKET DONAIR ($24): The base is a flatbread topped with a generous portion of smoky-flavored brisket. The taste is a perfect balance of sweet and tangy, and it pairs wonderfully with the sour cream. Despite the large portion, it’s so light and delicious that you can easily finish it all. THE SHACK BURGER ($19): This burger isn’t particularly large, but it’s incredibly refreshing and pairs perfectly with a beer. The burger patty isn’t overly juicy, but it’s still very satisfying. Regular Beer Flight ($13): If you enjoy beer, you definitely need to try the beer flight. It consists of four beers with flavors that range from light to deep, each one distinct and of high quality with strong flavors. We even bought some canned beer to take home before leaving. Overall, this is one of the most satisfying restaurants I’ve visited in Yellowknife. The food is delicious, the beer is great, and the service is excellent. It’s a bit of a pity that we didn’t get to try the dinner menu, as I’m sure the fish of the day would have paired wonderfully with their beer.
I like their beer. I got a beer flight to try 4 types of traditional beer and I like them all. I also got the chicken wing with honey glazed flavor and it’s very good too. This restaurant is pretty much my favorite in Yellowknife. It’s also busy during dinner time as there is like half an hour wait time even for a single person. Service is good and they had good recommendation.
