    Tilly's Kitchen - Crispy dumplings

    I tried this place recently for dinner during my trip to the area. Parking spot is limited so we…read moreended up have to park across the street. The restaurant is nicely decorated. Service here was okay but food had hits and misses. We ordered bread, grilled salmon, cod fillet, Caesar salad, jambalaya and seafood pasta. Of all the dishes we've ordered, I liked the flavourful Caesar salad. Seafood pasta was alright too. However, the bread, salmon and Tuscan chicken all tasted very dry. So did the jambalaya, flavourless and not spicy at all. Overall, the vibe and service are okay but food is mediocre.

This goes double for a restaurant consistently has a packed parking lot every day that it's open, which was the case for Tilly's Kitchen. I'd never been inside the restaurant(s?) that preceded Tilly's at their stately accomodations on Stellarton Road, and am worse off for it. The interior has character galore, with wooden arches and door frames, stained glass and more, although light stains for the woods and neutral paint colours keep it from being dark, dreary and dated. For appetizers, the table started with an order of their crispy dumplings ($15) and mussels ($16). The deep fried dumplings strayed far from their Asian origins, with pulled pork, lime and ginger creme fraiche, and pea shoots, but were a tasty start to the meal nonetheless. I focused on the mussels, mainly leaving the dumplings to my seafood-adverse wife. They were wonderfully tender, without a hint of overcooked rubberiness. The smoked tomato sauce didn't have a lot of smoke to it, but a hint of spice and herbs kept it from being bland. My wife's chicken and chorizo pasta ($23 + $2 GF noodle), was a savoury and hearty dish, with a hit of spice from the chorizo and a lovely red pepper and Dijon sauce that clung to each piece of pasta. The paella I ordered for my main ($32) may have been missing out on the crispy edges of the less fancy, more traditional version, but it would be hard to drum up any other complaint about this iteration. The plentiful seafood (*deep inhale* scallops, haddock, shrimp, squid, salmon and mussels) was cooked to tender perfection, while the chorizo, tomato and saffron broth added a layered and rich flavour to the whole dish. We finished the meal with a shared dessert, the truffles and port. A steal at just $12, it comes with two shots of the classic fortified wine, along with four house-made truffles, which were spectacularly smooth and rich and would satisfy any chocolate lover. Tilly's Kitchen is checking all the right boxes - beautiful atmosphere, great service and food that's bringing new flavours to Pictou County in well-executed, stylishly-plated dishes.

We started with the garlic fingers as an appetizer, which were tasty and hit the spot. For drinks, we kept it simple with water, Pepsi, and iced tea--no complaints there. Service was efficient; our food arrived in a reasonable time without any delays. My husband went for the daily special: ribs, shrimp, potatoes, and coleslaw. The ribs were the standout--tender and flavorful. The potatoes were good too, though the gravy was pretty bland and could use more seasoning. Unfortunately, the shrimp fell flat; they were a bit rubbery and lacked any real taste. I opted for the pan-fried haddock, which was well-cooked and enjoyable. The restaurant itself was clean and well-maintained, which we appreciated. For dessert, we shared the peanut butter chocolate mousse. It was good overall--rich and chocolatey--but it didn't really deliver on the peanut butter flavor, which was disappointing since that's what drew us to it. The waitress was very nice and did a great job. All in all, it's a reliable spot with some hits and misses. We'd probably return if we're in the area, but we'd skip the shrimp next time!
