Reviews for Ampersand | 27 in Edmonton, AB
We went here on our wedding anniversary. The ambiance and vibe of the place felt great. The staff was friendly. Nobody asked if... we were celebrating anything. We had ordered Ceviche, short rib and paella. The food presentation was great but was mediocreat best for taste and very pricey overall. The short rib($40) was tender on the meaty side but somehow dry. The backside wastoast. The ribs sat on a bed of what tasted like coleslaw with roasted potatoes on the sides. The Ceviche($21) and paella($36)tasted exactly the same with what seemed like the same flavour, overlap of ingredients and preparation The only difference beingthat the Ceviche came with Tortilla chips and the Paella came with risotto(+extra unminced seafood) Check out the pictures! Theydo look really good however. We will not be returning to this place. We do not recommend this place for any specialevents. There are plenty of restaurants with the same price range that has better tasting food. Read more
&27 I would classify as a restaurant on the brink of being a fine dining restaurant, but is not quite there. The atmosphere is... quite nice and clean. I ordered the peach cabrese salad which was good all be it scant on the mozzarella. For a salad that ismeant to share I would expect more then one small ball of mozzarella. My main course was the pork tomahawk. It was accompaniedby chive gnocchi with a miso sauce which was quite good however the pork was also served with a sweet bbq sauce and the twoflavors didn't really pair nicely with each other, one being sweet the other salty savoury. This made me think of what Iinitially said in this review, the dishes have too much going on to be fine dining. The service was alright and definitely notvery standout. Our server didn't look to pleased to be there that night and hardly came to our table. Overall Ampersand to mehas the potential to really be a fine dining restaurant of they reel in their flavours a bit and work on the service. Read more
What a perfect evening we had last night. This was for my very private bachelorette party so it was just my maid of honour and... I. The service was impeccable and the food exceeded our expectations. I had the octopus as a appetizer and the catch of the dayas my main entree. As neither one of us drink alcohol the bartender did this incredible blackberry Mocktail for us and it was sodelicious. Absolutely recommend for a elegant dinner in a beautiful setting. Read more
Lovely environment and delicious food! But the staff looks a little impatient and expects that you should leave as soon as you... are done with your food! Partly uncomfortable because of this, it is a nice place though! Read more

I was here for a private networking function and loved it! The atmosphere was so nice - super trendy and comfortable. I loved... the lighting and the live edge tables. The food was served buffet style and it was amazing! Read more
We recently had our wedding reception at Ampersand 27 and I cannot tell you how amazing our experience was with Ampersand 27 and... specifically Nicky. From the beginning we had prompt and helpful responses. Guests were well taken care of, with special caretaken of guests with allergies! The food was raved about! Amazing experience 11/10. And again, the food!! It was really nothinglike ‘wedding food’ because it was delicious. Read more
I was fortunate enough to have my entire wedding hosted here on August 14, 2022! Everything went off without a hitch and it was... the most perfect and beautiful day of my life! I cannot thank the staff enough, especially Nicky who is the most patient andthoughtful catering manager/coordinator you could possibly deal with for organizing a wedding. Highly recommend! Read more
