Deer + Almond

“honestly the seasonal vegetable dishes were the stars. Each one prepared to maximize its natural flavor with minimal intervention. The roasted carrots with harissa and the charred broccoli with tahini were nutritionally excellent and deeply flavorful.”

“The bread course was generous but calorie-dense. House-made sourdough WITH compound butter before a multi-plate meal adds up. An opt-in approach would serve health-conscious diners better.”

“The sharing format worked greaat for our family. The kids picked at different plates and tried things they'd never normally order. The staff was patient and welcoming with children. lowkey a fine dining concept that works for families.”

“for real no kids menu and the small plates WERE priced for adults. Feeding three kids on $16-18 plates gets expensive fast. A couple of $8 kids options would make this more family-budget-friendly.”

“Deer + Almond continues to be one of Winnipeg's best. The sharing plates format was great for trying everything. Quality ingredients, creative combinations, and reasonable prices for this level of cooking. Best value fine-casual in the city.”

“The small plates add up quickly when you order enough to get full. Four plates each for two people plus drinks hit $100+. The value is in the quality, not the quantity per dollar.”
