Wonderful take-out meals and more! - Edit
The food at Wild Leek is so flavourful and filling. So many wonderful choices on Uber Eats and Skip the Dishes delivery apps. Note that in-store there are lots of grab'n'go items, staples, and more desserts.
Read morePros: Everything is vegan!, Many house-made ingredients used., Short-term parking on a side street for pickup.
Cons: Mostly take-out., Only 2 seats at an eating counter inside., Only 2 tables outside in warmer weather.

Tons of Options - Edit
Wild Leek has so many options we had trouble picking. Eventually we settled on the Titanic Burrito and BLT wrap with dragon potatoes. The wraps were pretty good, but a bit expensive for what we got. The potatoes would be better crispier. All around good vegan option.

Maravilhoso!!! - Edit
O melhor sanduíche, batatas e doces que provei em Nova Scotia até agora. Muito sabor! Voltarei mais vezes! Eles oferecem sanduíches do cardápio e comidas (cupcakes, burrito, sopa, bolo de cenoura, massa de pizza) congelados e refrigerados. Preço justo.

Takeout vegan food, good selection - Edit
2022 update: takeout only now, with only one small table to sit at on the sidewalk unless you are able to take it home. Otherwise it's eating in the car.
Read morePrices are very high for takeout. Food was good, still. It was such a great little place, sad to see it change, not in a good way.

A gem! - Edit
We ate at Wild Leek twice while in Halifax. What a gem! The Dragon fries are crazy good. Honestly one of the best potato dishes I’ve ever eaten. The Bahama Breeze onion rings were great too. Who knew coconut and onion play so well together? Buffalo tofu sandwich is also a good choice. The donair was decent (the one at Wooden Monkey is better), The seitan meat was nicely caramelized but the wrap contained lettuce (a big no-no as far as donair purists are concerned) and the sauce was more like mayonnaise. Really good Caesar salad. They also offer a good selection of baked goods, with 6 packs of frozen day old cupcakes available at a reduced price. We didn’t get a chance to try any of their bowls. This will definitely be the first place I eat the next time I’m in Halifax.

Fabulous - Edit
Great place! The server was incredibly friendly and helpful. Absolutely get the dragon fries - they're the best food I've had in Halifax. The seitan mushroom mozz burger was ok - texture was great but it could have used a little something more in the flavor department. They also had a wide variety of baked goods.

Cute place - Edit
Good vegan food, leaning into the crunchy-granola vibe. Good flavour profiles. Their dragon sauce has a cult following— you can add it to various dishes or get their dragon fries. Good variety of baked goods.

Meh - Edit
I loved the Strawberry Fields smoothie, but the miso ginger noodles were not for me. All and all it's too expensive for what you're actually getting. There are better vegan restaurants in Halifax.
Read moreI'm still open to coming back, but only to try the brunch. I'm too disappointed with lunch/dinner.
Pros: Friendly staff
Cons: Limited space, Pricey

Always a great meal - Edit
Wild Leek never fails to disappoint with their meals! The menu changes a few times a year it seems and they also have daily specials, so there’s always new things to try! The farmers breakfast wrap is amazing. I also love the dragon sauce they make. Only downside to the place is they don’t have a lot of seating.
Read morePros: Lots of vegan options , Friendly staff , Daily special
Cons: Limited seating , No delivery for take-out

Fantastic food, especially for brunch - Edit
I've been to Wild Leek a couple times and really enjoyed it every time. Brunch is a real star, especially the benny with breakfast potatoes. The menu is varied enough that it even has options to please a difficult omnivore.

My favourite vegan restaurant on the planet.. so far - Edit
The Wild Leek is my favourite vegan restaurant. In a nutshell - it is delicious. The portions are huge. I recommend you go with others so you can share (and that means you can try more things!)
Read moreMy favourite dishes are the Breakfast bowl, the Wild bowl and the Dragon Fries because they come with Dragon Sauce. The breakfast bowl is a delicious array of roasted potatoes, mushrooms, onions and the BEST seitan I've ever tried. The wild bowl has rice, seasoned tofu and seasonal steamed veg. The Dragon Fries are roasted potatoes smothered with dragon sauce, banana peppers and green onions. I am salivating as I type! Dragon sauce.. you must try this sauce. It is liquid gold. I always come back just for this sauce! It's garlic.. salt.. sweet.. nutty.. Very hard to describe but very, very tasty. Please try it and see for yourself!
I also like their classic brunch plate. It has just about everything on there. Scrambled and perfectly seasoned tofu, potatoes, corn bread, some fruit and a really colorful salad. It is served with a delicious green dressing. They don't skimp at the Wild Leek!
To drink I recommend the wild tea - especially if you like ginger!
They often have neat specials like Bibimbap and Udon - things not on their everyday menu. They have lots of sweets too for those who like dessert.
The plates are always colorful and with lots of variety. The atmosphere is intimate but relaxing. It is a very welcoming place!
If you're in Halifax you definitely need to eat here. You won't be disappointed.
Pros: Delicious , Huge portions, Welcoming atmosphere
Cons: My belly won't hold their entire menu!
