Tried it for the first time tonight and was really impressed by the quality of food and service. They deserve all the good reviews and stars they got.
Not recommended for bday celebration/special occasion. They don't allow you to bring your own cake because it is "outside food" the server said. Although we made reservation, the table wasn't ready until 30mins passed our reservation. Not offered to check in our coats also no sincere apology. Poor customer service and tiny space without waiting area.
Sensational food and service. Reservations are a must.
THE BEST FOOD EXPERIENCE IN EDMONTON! The food is crazy good. We had the feed me menu and it was worth every penny. The waitress and waiter kept us stocked and laughing the whole time. I really can’t say enough good things about this place. Even the bathroom is clean and classy. Oh and get the bacon… your welcome!

Absolutely loved everything here! The gentleman who served us was so helpful and friendly. The place is so quaint and small. Great ambiance and fantastic food!
Excellent and very attentive server. The food was also excellent and it's nice to be able to see your food cooked behind you.
Excellent service, amazing food and overall great dining experience.
Incredible food, intimate atmosphere. Definitely a rare gem in Edmonton’s food scene!! Owners are always there and hands on with customers, love that extra touch.
Incredible food, warm & welcoming staff & a cozy, intimate atmosphere
Comfortable Intimate setting - Great wine selection and other drinks- Food is very delicious. The atmosphere is well thought out and the staff were very knowledgeable and friendly!
A moment of relaxation and pleasure. I wanted to offer my wife an evening with a drink and share a dinner together. So I chose Tzin. And my choice did not disappoint us The place is quaint, out of time with a hushed ambience. Only one room so it is better to book because, I have to say the request is far superior than the available space. And we know why The reception is worthy of the greatest. The smile of the leader puts you at ease. The relaxation of the boss gives you the Note of the place. It's all in a very unparalleled professionalism. What we appreciated was the evil they gave themselves to translate and explain to us the dishes that were served to us To the little care for their guests. And of course we congratulate the cooks who have been able to play their talents to feast on us. A team that deserves to be known. We will definitely return. We are new to Edmonton (10 months) and we affirm this address as the favorite. (We are from the south of France and former restaurateurs)
Amazing food, unique atmosphere.
Service
Paella was amazing!
From the minute we entered Tzin, we were greeted not only by the owner Glenn and manager Cory, but by the impressive and comfortable ambiance emanating from the cozy quarters of this unique and intimate establishment. Glenn and Cory's warm greeting quickly transitioned into an absolutely unforgettable experience - from the attentive service to the superlative skill and creativity demonstrated by Corey and Joe in the kitchen. We chose the "feed me" option, which is exactly what it sounds like - the team at Tzin prepares a series of small dishes designed specifically for you, using their knowledge and craft to provide a remarkably freeing experience. If you haven't yet had the pleasure of dining at Tzin, book now, book in advance, and book with confidence that you'll have a truly magnificent time.
This restaurant never ceases to impress. Had the "feed me" and loved every dish. Our server was great, the atmosphere cozy and the wine delicious. I'll never grow tired of this place!
The best food in Edmonton
Absolutely amazing atmosphere, great service with a touch of home felt fine dining. An environment where a smile behind a mask goes a long way. The food was succulent and mouth watering even thinking of it. With the follow up from the executive chef during my dinner for 1. Couldn’t ask for amazing evening and with great gracious service and a nice quote to end the night with from themselves. Positive vibes, amazing food and service. I would come back in a heartbeat and would recommend this lovely small tapas and wine. Thanks again for an amazing service
Tzin is one of our favorite places to dine! The small restaurant makes it feel like such an intimate experience. The food is amazing!! The bacon is just to die for. The servers and owner are the most friendly people you will meet. We feel like we are apart of the Tzin family every time we go!
First off, terrible customer service. I came to Tzin with my sister who is visibly 6-month pregnant. All went well until her husband came by. He came by when we were finishing our last dish, and we asked the host before the husband entered if it was okay if he just joins us and then we'll all leave soon. The host said sure, he brought us a chair. When my sister's husband went in, the host became nervous and immediately said that we guys need to move closer to the table (mind you, we weren't like leisurely sitting there all over the place, and my sister's husband is not a fat guy at all), because the other guests will be coming soon. There was no one in the restaurant at that time but us! Seriously, making a pregnant woman sit closer to the table when no one is sitting at the table next to us? We were complacent and switched places, I dragged myself as close to the table as to be able just to breathe comfortably. Time passed, and as we were leaving, the other customers next to us came and didn't even sit at that spot we were saving for them! We felt rushed out, despite the fact that our 2-hour time limit hasn't expired yet, the plates were cleared off quickly just as we finished our last bite, the host even moved my gift bag. We felt very awkward and uncomfortable. If you let an extra person sit at the table, then do behave accordingly and continue good service. One other point is that were are not native English speakers, and we always get substandard service at posh restaurants, because they think we can't tell their behavior is outrageous, well, that's a whole different story... but it repeated itself at Tzin. The menu was good, though. Not mindblowing, but good, chefs worked hard. Extremely expensive. The "Feed Me" option ended up costing around 60 bucks per person. Would have not been disappointed if not for the service.
An amazing "hole-in-the-wall" restaurant. Dealt with our group of 8 very well. Dan and Kelsey were top notch, bringing the experience to new heights. No matter the group size, choose the "Feed Me" option. You won't regret it.

Great food Great service Great value. If it's your first time, get them to just FEED you. I promise you won't break the bank, might break your stomach though.
The food was amazing and very good service, I will be back
This is the second time we have been to Tzin. First visit was almost a year ago and Glenn, the owner remembered us after all this time. Glenn and his team took time to make sure we felt looked after and enjoy our dining experience. If you are looking for first Class service, amazing food, and a great atmosphere I would highly recommend this place.
if i want to have a chill nightout with my girlfriends. this is the best place for us.
Best tapas in Edmonton
Second Time @ Tzin Tapas, always great ambiance, great service and great food.
The food is ???????? The service is very nice and interesting. I enjoyed the process of how to choose a great wine (not a wine drinker so she was very helpful and sweet about what I would like and got it just right☺️). Will definitely be returning and just such a great spot to catch up with friends.
We had a delightful evening at Tzin last night. From the wine selection and the delectable gastronomic surprises of the "Feed Me" option in their menu, my friends and I were blown away by the food and the service! It is a small wine bar so reservations are highly encouraged. There is a 2-hr dining period for busy evenings due to the size of the establishment. Would recommend for a romantic night out or get together with friends. Order the Bacon tapas...it is out of this world! We will definitely be back. Thank you to Glenn, Cory and the rest of the team for a wonderful dining experience.
Glen the owner is a wonderful host who puts love and pride in what he does. The chef works magic to make small bite size pieces of heaven. The combination is a night to remember. I felt looked after like never before when I was proposed wine paired with plate after plate of delicious things I could not begin to name. I’ve said it to the owner and I’ll say it publicly, this experience has changed my view of dinning out!
Amazing food, drinks, and atmosphere. I'm still scared to try the "feed me" option, but I'm sure I'll work up the courage eventually. I'd eat here every day, but I need to fit into my pants at some point.
Excellent experience with my mom and I. I was a bit skeptical going in as I have been to one excellent Tapas place and a few "nice" places. Most of those nice places falling short of Aperitivo in Ottawa. HOWEVER, I was delighted with my dining experience here. It is a smaller/cozy place the seats are fairly close together but not so close that you feel like you are dining with your neighbour. The owner, Glenn was our host and recommended the "feed me" option where they select your menu choices for you. I am glad we were feeling brave. Everything was amazing. We had the monk fish, mushroom pie/tart, and buffalo meat balls. Pardon my lack of proper titles. What elevated this experience was harmony. The sauces on the plate made sense and tasted just as good as the main dish that was nestled on it. The pastry was crisp, and light and every dish had excellent flavour. Glenn picked a very complimentary wine for my dining experience. I would definitely come here again.
Absolutely in love with Tzin. I'm from Calgary and always make a reservation here when going up to Edmonton, dining here alone is worth the drive! Would strongly recommend choosing the "Feed me" option on the menu for a night full of surprise courses. Also letting your server know what kind of wine you enjoy and let them choose some bottles to pair with your meals for you is a nice way to go as well. The owners are always a pleasure to talk with and are very accommodating to ensure everyone has a wonderful experience. Would recommend to everyone.
Great food, great wine and fantastic service. The space is a little tight but my family and I had a great time. Can’t recommend it enough!
I loved the service and the food is incredible. The mix of flavors is delicious. Thanks
Excellent food and wine, cozy and relaxed atmosphere, great service! Will be coming again and again - must explore everything they can produce. Incredible dessert - chocolate & port torte - highly recommend Espresso was not bad, just wrong beens. Or, rather, pods
This place is a hidden Gem. I love it.
The perfect wine and food restaurant. Great selection of wines!
tasty food
Great service but food isn't up to par given its price point (comparing to other small plates available in Edmonton). Had a risotto pastry dish that was amazing though.
Best place ever, love it!!!
Amaizing food and service. Great place.
What a wonderful experience. Atmosphere and dishes offered were over the top. Thanks for a great evening. This place is a real gem. If you want amazing thought out dishes to savour and service to enjoy then this is the place.
Kelsey and Glenn ate the best . never ever been disappointed they are the best at helping you pick a wine for your palette. much appreciated
Went here with a stagette. Absolutely excellent food and service. Will go again.
서버는 엄청 착한데, 맛은 평범하고 가게 내부가 엄청 비좁다 예약도 어려운 걸 감안하면 굳이 갈 필요는..
One of the best dining experiences ever! Everything about this restaurant is just right for me in terms of ambience, liveliness, food (!!!), and service. It can be a great date night spot but also casual enough where you don’t feel self conscious at all. It’s a very small space which allows the owner really get to know his patrons and they serve reallly great food. Keeping it a small space with very limited tables allows chefs to focus on quality. So I def recommend making a reservation to get a spot here! We luckily managed to get a spot on our last night here in Edmonton. We didn’t even know how limited the space was until someone told us days earlier. The owner, Glenn, greeted us wholeheartedly and is a really fun, friendly person! Holds great conversation and can tell he loves what he does. The menu is small but mighty. We did the “feed us” special which is essentially a chef’s course meal catered to the number in your party. They are flexible on allergies, religious beliefs and preferences (picky eaters). If something on the menu catches your eye, you can request it to be included in the course! Which we requested the paella. The plates that were served (per my own description to the best of my memory and taste): -mushroom and gnocchi with truffle ricotta: super yummy and flavorful! Everything is so tender that it just melts in your mouth. -falafel: everything here is house-made. I’m usually not a falafel person but this was very good! It had a lot of flavor and it was perfect textured! Crispy on the outside and super moist and soft on the inside. -beef and bison sausage with mustard and bread: absolutely awesome. The sausage and mustard is made in house and it has such a nice fresh-ness to it. The mustard is awesome. -wild boar meatballs with Jack Daniels glaze: melt in your mouth, sweetness from the glaze, juice meatballs. So delicious!!!! -Apple cider cured bacon over toasted bread with apple compote: I’m not a bacon fan, but this was not your typical bacon. If this is how bacon tasted like all the time, I would seriously eat it all the time!!! Sooo crispy yet so juicy and tender. This was our favorite of the night. Glen showed up southern bacon. This took the cake. -seafood paella: all the seafood is locally sourced! Topped with a seafood bisque, this dish satisfied my long time paella craving! My co-worker even said it tasted just like Barcelona. Last but not least, dessert!!! -Apple curd tart with oat crumbles: perfect tang with the sweetness from the shortbread and crumbles. So so good. -flourless chocolate cake with cherry and almond brittle: the amount of richness and sweetness was perfect in this cake. It had a slight darkness to it which didn’t make it too rich and sweet. The texture was super smooth and we loved it all. This place has won my heart. Thank you, Glenn, for treating us like family with your hospitality! Hit us up in Houston!
Amazing food and fantastic staff. Had a great dining experience here.
Great service, thanks so much for accommodating my wife's gluten allergie concerns. No issue!
Great service and wonderful atmosphere for a chilly evening. No reservation... no problem. They took us in, got us seated and took care of the rest! Will definitely return
Celebrated a birthday there today with family. Total winner. Personable and professional service. Wonderful food. Wonderful experience. Would go back again..and again..and again...and again.
Great food!! The manager was there and made recommendations, all of which we took and really enjoyed! Friendly staff and great cocktails. And the bacon.... just get the bacon!
Go to Tzin. You'll feel like the member of an intimate club. Don't bother with the menu. Put yourself in their hands and let them pair their excellent wines with their even better food. Savour every bite and sip.
We randomly googled restaurants downtown to celebrate our anniversary and we decided to try Tzin. Hands down the BEST restaurant we have ever been to! They are right when they say it's a tiny place but it's perfect!! The staff were great... Friendly and helpful and the food was seriously amazing. What they do is beyond elevating food. You can't leave without trying their "bacon tapa"
Food is very good. I love it!
Wonderful as usual Great food wine and conversation The best

OMG, that was an amazing experience. I recommend that to all of you guys!
The food was amazing, try the "feed me" option and enjoy the experience.
The service was outstanding. Wine recommendations were right on point and the food was delicious.
Best thing that ever happened to Edmonton.
This place is always a wow. Impeccable service, knowledge, and food.
Lovely! Best falafel... well ever. Excellent service, atmosphere, wine. Truly enjoyed the evening.
Went here for my birthday and we had the most lovely meal. We did the "Feed Me" option so we were fed an assortment of tapas from the kitchen without requesting anything in particular. The man who served us (who is likely the owner as well?) was hospitable and the service was excellent. He paired wine with the meal for all three of us and made sure we were taken care of. An excellent and very intimate dining experience. Thank you for the great birthday dinner.
Probably our favourite place in town. It's small and cozy, so reservations ahead of time especially on weekends is advised. Incredibly attentive, knowledgeable and friendly service. The food is divine, upping the delicious factor with great drink pairings. Thank you, Tzin, for a lovely experience every time we come!
Just had the dinner for two expression that was offered as a curb side pick up. The food, wine, and playlist was a close second to experiencing it at Tzin, but oh so worth it. Thank you Tzin staff for, making available for take out, a slice of the magic offered at the restaurant.
This place is definitely a local gem. Great host and extraordinary delicious food. Would recommend for anyone who wants to chill and enjoy some private time with their loved ones. The server was so lovely and friendly!
The owner n his wife are gems . Best food in e town
Always an amazing meal.
Great atmosphere, amazing food - Will definitely be coming back when I return to Edmonton. Highly recommend!
Tapas are unreal!
Love the food. Love the vibe. Love the people
I love Tzin!! This is a fantastic place for dinner or to grab a drink and a snack. The wine selection always seem to offer something new and there are lots of options. The bacon is one of the most delicious things I have ever tasted; it is what dreams are made of! The food is made with such detail you know they love what they're creating. The staff and owner here know food so ask for recommendations or wine pairing and you won't be disappointed. In the summer, if you are lucky enough to get a seat on their sidewalk patio you get a feeling like you've been transported to Europe or something and they've done a great job at creating an amazing ambiance. If you're planning to come here, make a reso so you don't miss out.
Just amazing! No words.
My girlfriend and I were celebrating our Anniversary and i can't say enough good things about Tzin and how the staff and cuisine made it extra special. We came in for a late reservation, which really had us in a dampened mood; not being able to spend any time together all day. Both the gentleman who were serving the restaurant that evening were terrific. Promptly, but not too promptly, asking for wine or drink preferences and let us know about their tailored menu options. Having decided to take the plunge and go with the tailored menu, it was incredible; everything was cooked to perfection and when each course arrived it had me thinking "you can do that? You can put THAT and THAT together and it will be good?" No. You can't. Because it won't be good, it will be GREAT. Tzin, as a culinary experience, left me believing in the creativity of food and it's impact on an evening. You guys made our anniversary and our evening and i couldn't have been more satisfied with what i was served. Unbelievable, will be back!
Such great food and service. Love the venue too great for dates
Always a fine dining experience with good wine here. It's all tapas if you didn't read that.
We had the most wonderful evening here. The food was beautifully crafted and our server was so lovely. Highly recommend, I look forward to coming to Tzin again.
Amazing food and service. The environment is cozy and attractive. We did the "feed me" option and thoroughly enjoyed it.
Very nice place for an excelent food, good selection of wines and very kindly atention, a must go restaurant. Recomend made reservation, its a small restaurant.
I had heard raving reviews about this place. I made reservations for a girlfriend and I for Saturday at 8:30. We were greeted at the door very quickly and we didn't have to wait long for a table. The Ambiance was wonderful it's a very small place but yet you felt like you had enough room. The owner introduced himself to us and was quite personable. We ordered a bottle of red wine from France that we quite enjoyed. We decided to order off the menu instead of the chef special. Unfortunately what we ordered look nothing like the picture is posted. The salad was good however everything else was subpar and I was quite underwhelmed. We ordered the Bison which came with fresh bread and a sauce, it was really nothing special. The bacon was the best I would highly recommend it. However we ordered potatoes which was literally home cut style potatoes and some dipping sauce. Because I had heard so many great reviews and seeing some wonderful pictures I was quite disappointed with what we were presented with and the flavors being subpar. Perhaps if I do go back I will do the chef's special and maybe be surprised but I don't plan to go back anytime soon. The service was great and amazing and that is why I am giving three stars however because the food was quite underwhelming I wasn't overly pleased. Great staff and great wine list,excellent service.
Unique and personal
Amazing everything!
Good food, good wine. Fantastic service. Will be back
This restaurant is the the best that could happen to Edmonton!
Fantastic food and the service was outstanding! I highly recommend having a few dishes here.
I dined at Tzin almost two weeks ago and I can't stop thinking about the food! Tzin is a can't miss experience, its so good it inspired me to write my first google review ever. The food is absolutely spectacular, the service doesn't miss a beat, its just a fantastic place all around!! I definitely recommend the "feed me" option, they bring you 6-7 plates to try and a wine pairing for EACH course. Oh, and their bacon dish... first time I ever ordered seconds at a restaurant!
Wow... of you haven't gone here yet... you need to! Cozy, intimate, outstanding cuisine and service. This place is a gem. Thank you for a wonderful evening! We will surely be back!
I gotta wonder what's the point of yet another 5star review. But I'm making it anyway because it was that good! They deserve thousands! Tapas bars are our favorite. We've been to a few that seem to always impress. Tzin is like a treat level above the rest. We very genuinely couldn't pick a favorite dish. We thought it was the steak with caramel sauce until we ordered a pork loin... The way the loin is brought together by the beet salsa really makes you appreciate what food can be with a perfect mix of flavors. Everything was impressive. The lemon tart was the perfect finish. I'd definitely recommend that as well. I'd be happy to come again. It's worth every penny.
Delicious feed me menu items and wine pairings
New Years Eve Dinner. I frequent Tzin regularly and this place has a charm and cantor that can't be found anywhere else! The owners love what they do and they are incredibly accommodating every time. There's not much to say about the New Years Eve dinner, it was a set course meal with a wine pairing. Absolutely delicious. Will recommend and will be back.
I found the food to be full, and over hyped. The selection small and the setting unimpressive.
First time there. Staff was great and the food was even better. Will be going back.
The current curbside offering is as good as dine in. Love the food and wine selection and the ability to upgrade wine choices.
Amazing tasting menu and an intimate dining experience. Exceptional service. Options for a curbside pickup of their tasting menus during covid!
I stopped by one delightfully pleasant evening a few weeks ago and managed to get a fantastic table for two on the patio. The Boudreaux was a perfect fit for the salad which was equally stupendous. Dessert was a lemon-something-or-other and was a perfect finale to go with a twenty year old port. A perfect meal. Service was eight out of ten. I could sense some cliquey-ish ness with the local clientele present but it's understandable. They most likely se each other all the time, i get it, take care of your regulars, but don't forget to "Wow!" Your first timers. That's for loss of two points in service. Food - ten out of ten. Perfectly executed. I'll be back.
Great meal. Super small restaurant with great Tapas.
Absolutely delicious tapas. The beef steak was one of the best steaks I have ever tasted ! Great hosts as well !
This is the #1 restaurant in Edmonton, hands down. They are deserving of every star in these reviews and then some. The vibe: romantic, quirky, moody, VIP yet cozy. The food: Imagine you make a recipe a hundred times in a row and tweak it slightly each time to achieve absolute perfection. This is what every item on their menu tastes like. When dine in is open, their "feed me" option is incredible. During Covid, we purchased curbside pickup (kudos to the owners for keeping their staff and customers safe by remaining closed for dine in) and it was incredible. Since it was Valentine's Day they included a playlist, games including questions to ask your partner, and the most amazing dinner. We ate our takeout over 2+ hours at home, savouring each bite as if we were at Tzin (we wish!). Can't wait to go back here after Covid. There is nothing that we've tried that is not fantastic, but our two faves are the bacon (pic from our takeout below) and their chocolate cake. Omg. Also, the owners are lovely people and make you feel like you are an old friend at their home for dinner when you dine at Tzin. Perfect for any special occasion or just an incredibly fun evening with friends or your significant other.
Food is amazing. Service warm. Good wine selection.
Truly an experience. Amazing food, wine and service. Worth every penny.
Such amazing food and service.
Perfection! Cozy yet lively. Delicious food with an element of surprise.
My favourite restaurant in Edmonton, hands down. We enjoyed a night out to honour my late mother's birthday. Tzin came through as they always do! They have a fabulous selection of wines as well as delicious tapas to try plate by plate. Or try the "Feed Me" option where they will bring you a selection of different plates depending on how hungry you are. Some of these selections are on the menu and some of them are not. Their knowledge of wine suggestions Is extensive. The owner, Kelsey, is the perfect front of house representative as well as server extraordinaire. Two very enthusiastic thumbs up.... and 10 out of 10 for this fabulous little gem downtown. Be sure to make reservations and try to stick to their very polite request at dining within 2 hours, so others can enjoy the experience as well. (It's a very small restaurant so seating is limited.) Cheers to a great restaurant that will be celebrating their 13th year in March of 2020. We'll be back!! We ate the tapas too fast to remember to take photos of them! In the photo you will see two desserts we shared. Both were scrumptious.
Gnocchi was incredible! A must have. The "feed me" option is great if you want to try a variety of menu items. Will definitely visit again.
As a regular I may be considered jaded or biased...but the team here delivers EVERY time with their preparation, presentation, passion and panache. The food is an eclectic experience if you allow it...and so is the service! Subtle yet attentive, focused yet accommodating...an over all wonderous experience!
Excellent service, amazing food and overall great dining experience.
????????????????????
(Translated) Excellent Bar a Tapas! Owners are extremely attentive. The Wine List is very good. I tasted two Spanish wines by the glass (Monastrel Elephant and Barahonda Blend) delicious. Finished with a wonderful Caliph Cabernet Sauvignon, good oak, it looked like french terroir, unfortunately I didn't record the name (obvious). The slaps are saborosíssimos, gnocci experienced with mushroom, bacon with a sweet kind of malt, Lamb meatball with chimichurri and Angus with a tomato almost a vinaigrette. The bar is small, you risk not entering without reservation, very central location. Music lounge, old mix decor. I walked from the hotel. Great! (Original) Excelente Bar a Tapas! Os donos são extremamente atenciosos. A Carta de Vinhos é muito boa. Degustei 2 vinhos espanhóis em taça (Elefante Monastrel e Barahonda Blend) deliciosos. Finalizei com um Cabernet Sauvignon da Califa maravilhoso, bom Carvalho, parecia terroir francês, infelizmente não gravei o nome (óbvio). Os tapas são saborosíssimos, experimentei gnocci com mushroom, bacon com uma espécie de malte adocicado, Lamb meatball com chimichurri e Angus com um tomate, quase um vinagrete. O bar é pequeno, corre o risco de não entrar sem reserva, localização bem central. Música lounge, decoração mix antigo. Fui a pé do hotel. Excelente!
Great spot
The most unbelievable dining experience ever. Ambiance (outside on the patio), food, and service was perfect. I went with four girlfriends and we had the loveliest time. We were so incredibly taken care of by the husband and wife team. We did a chef's tasting menu and every item was different from the last and was delicious. It was a real treat to go there, and we're still talking about it days later!
Try the chefs tasting menu! My husband and I STILL say it's one of the best dinners we've ever had.
What great hosts! If you want a super chill place to enjoy a glass of wine and addictive tapas, this is your place! Super knowledgable about the wine they serve, and sometimes know what I want before I know it. It's a must, when you're in downtown Edmonton.
I echo every single person's positive sentiment. This place is phenomenal.. Just go.
Honestly how else could I rate Tzin. Cory and team are incredible. We just don't come enough but every time we do, we are treated like royalty. Amazing food, wonderful wines and the best hospitality I could ask for. Thank you as always.
Firstly, the lady who served us absolutely amazing! Very personable and considerate! Food was top notch as always and our wine was excellent! We had the Pouilly-Fuisse 2017 Chardonnay. Looking forward to visiting again soon...
Fantastic!!!!!!! Fan food, great atmosphere, and great wine. Definitely going there again!
I just took my wife to TZIN's for her birthday and it was a most delightful and enjoyable experience. The food and service were excellent and the desert was fabulous. It is small, casual and cozy, which was perfect for the occassion and thanks for the champage - that was a most pleasant surprise.
Great food, friendly service and good knowledge of wines, would go back again.
Tzin is the best! The inside of the restaurant has 7 2 people tables, with seating at the bar and on the patio. The setting is very cozy and intimate. Service is phenomenal and the staff is very personable, you are never waiting on anything or in need of anything. The food selections are delicious, hot, and locally sourced. They know when to cook the next course to have everything come out at the perfect time! The wine list is large, and they have a nice selection of premium liquors. I was also impressed that Tzin called me right away to let me know that my husband had left his Ray Bans at the table. I'd say if you're planning on going here, make a reservation in advance, it's definitely worth it!
My go to date night spot!! We always go with Chef Feed Me!! You can never go wrong here
The bacon... Eat the bacon. The food is incredible, the staff is friendly and attentive. I think I counted 6 tables, and the kitchen is the size of an average closet. A nice wine selection and the bar has a good looking selection of spirits. It's not cheap, but well worth the price.
My favourite restaurant in Edmonton! This cozy, if not tiny tapas place has the best wine list, best service and most consistent and enjoyable shared plate experience consistently.
Great time!

This place is a gem
Amazing. Simply amazing. From the moment you walk into Tzin you are greeted with friendly professionalism. Our host Glen was wonderful, he handled all his tables with class, never lagging behind, and never seeming to rush. The food was balanced in flavor, pleasing in presentation and very much worth the money. Being my first time there they were very accommodating to our request. And our host Glen even treated us to dessert since it was our 7 year anniversary! Very pleasant experience, I suggest you try it at least once! And as a person once said: "get the bacon and thank me later."
Most amazing experience in Edmonton. Not only is the food phenomenal and completely catered to your preferences but the service can’t be touched. I had an amazing first visit there and I will definitely be returning.
Absolutely love Tzin! Great food, great people, and a great local food spot.
One of the best places to eat on 104! Small intimate atmosphere and the staff is outstanding
I absolutely love this place... Best food I have ever had !! Absolutely lovely????
Small and cozy. Personal attention from staff. The "feed me" sampler option was a great selection of outstanding choices.
My favorite fine dining in Edmonton. Amazing food. Cozy atmosphere.
Ask them to order for you... best experience ever! Highly recommend.
Unique and personal
The food, wine, and drinks here are amazing! Both times we've had dinner here we had the "feed me" option on the menu and it was amazing both times. Food is in incredible and the wait staff is so friendly. They are really great with wine and drink suggestions, and even provided sampling of a few wines to see what I liked. I can't say enough good things, one of my favorite places in Edmonton!
I almost never leave a review unless is deserved. This place is absolutely delicious and the service is superb! We had the gnocchi, paella and bacon. First things first, order the bacon, you’re welcome! The gnocchi was exquisite and the paella was great! We were full so we didn’t have room for dessert, but Clay was so nice that gave us a chocolate torte to do on the house (it was unbelievable). Again, the service is incredible! Best place in town!
I had my first visit to the restaurant just recently and now I regret everytime I walked past this place without giving it a try. The food is exploding with flavor. Not sure if they change the menu often but I high recommend the salad, pork loin and the mushroom gnocchi. The portions are small but the taste makes it very well worth it. I will definitely be coming back here again.
Visited Tzin last night. Great experience overall. Service is great- attentive and staff make thoughtful recommendations. We had gnocchi, the beef with caramel sauce, bacon baguette, and boar meatballs. Honestly it was all so delicious I can't even pick a favourite. The place is small and intimate which is nice. Really good vibe. I'll definitely be back.
Amazing tapas. The chocolate cake dessert with salted caramel sauce is delicious. The Gnocchi was superb and flavourful, Highly recommended
Such a great patio and the eats were on point. Me and the wife went here for a date night. Had some wine and chose the "feed me" option and we're not dissapointed. Had an amazing mushroom dish and also the crustini's with house cured bacon and some delicious brandy glaze and apple balsamic topping were amazeballs!!!!!
Tapas are unreal!
One of the best places ever been
Brings me memories of the old days
Best dining experience in Edmonton
Food & service exceptional. Tiny place with a huge fine wine selection. I hope they have the pork belly when I go again...delicious
great dining experience. super friendly host. food could be more memorable though but the place is so cozy and service so amazing that with some wine we had a great evening. but yes, food needs to be more delicious.
Enjoyed a take-home dinner for 2 during lockdown to celebrate my Fiancé's birthday. I'm always skeptical taking home nice food as I like it to be warm and such when served. I picked-up food from incredibly gracious hostess/cooks and drove the 5minutes home. Food tasted absolutely amazing as you'd expect when being served in restaurant. Can't wait for my next experience in restaurant!
I don't know how can I describe it! It's like the most satisfying food experience I had. It gives a weird feeling which is somehow a combination of all best satisfactions I ever had! The atmosphere is awesome! The best staff you can ever imagine! And the food! Reminds me of zoomanity in Vegas and the best foods I ever had!! I loved the food!
This place absolutely blew my mind. I have never eaten food like this before, and the service was totally incredible. We had the "feed me whatever you feel like" option, and everything about it was wonderful. I felt like I was on drugs, it was so good (I was not on drugs).
Go with an empty stomach and an open mind. Let the phenomenal wait staff take you on a journey. The food is so beautiful you almost feel bad eating it. Truly a gem of downtown Edmonton. Make reservations to have the best experience.
Amazing service and the food was perfection. Fantastic wine selection! A 100% must try for any occasion!
Unique for the city. Cozy hole in the wall with a great selection of wines. The staff and service is amazing. Always leave stuffed and happy. Not cheap but worth it.
Firstly, the lady who served us absolutely amazing! Very personable and considerate! Food was top notch as always and our wine was excellent! We had the Pouilly-Fuisse 2017 Chardonnay. Looking forward to visiting again soon...
Came with a few people on a Friday evening and Tzin was as good, if not better, than I'd heard. The host was fantastic; friendly, informative and helpful. The food was amazing. We did the 'feed me' option and basically tried everything on the menu. It was all terrific, well cooked, flavorful, novel and delicious. Service was fast and it's impressive how much they can churn out of such a tiny kitchen. It's a *very* small spot, so it can be a little noisy, but that's not enough to detract a star. Honestly, if you're a restaurant lover at all, you owe it to yourself to try this place.
Amazing food and superb service.
Best tapas 1 ever eaten. Great ambiance! Staff very friendly.
Another fantastic evening of great food and wine.
Simply excellent. We were celebrating my wife's birthday and I was looking for something that would serve us good food at reasonable prices in an intimate and comfortable environment. In choosing Tzin I knocked it out of the park. Attentive and personalized service that was unobtrusive in a small, warm and welcoming environment. . Great little plates of food to share, an eclectic and varied wine menu, and a great decaf coffee to perfectly compliment the flour-less chocolate cake that was presented to my wife in honor of her birthday. It was our first visit but will certainly not be our last. P.S. Be sure to have a good look and enjoy the Burning Buddha painting on the wall.
When I die if there is no Tzin available to me I'll know I'm not in Heaven! We had a feed me curbside...everything was perfect, including the wine that was paired with the meal. Thanks to Kelsey, Glen and staff for making my wife's birthday meal PERFECT!
A cozy, intimate restaurant that offers beautiful food (much of which is locally sourced) and fantastic service. Have never been disappointed!
We called and ordered curbside pickup. They provide an option for “feed me” and it was amazing. Their pork belly is to die for. They always do such a good job in person (we had a number of date nights there) and it was great in person. The curbside pickup was just as special. Highly recommended. I would have added photos but the meal is already gone!
Awesome service and fantastic tapas! 100% recommend this place.
I went there couple years ago, still remember the “maple bacon” its impressive.
What an incredible experience. I highly recommend this restaurant. We had the Feed Me menu and loved every dish. The wine pairings were perfect. Our waiter Clay and waitress Kelsey made sure that we were well taken care of. We were …
Great atmosphere and wonderful patio to sit and people watch on.
Loved this restaurant! Great food and wine for everyone, was really a great experience to have on a night out.
Delicious food with great wine choice!
Great food, great atmosphere, cozy and friendly.
Amazing variety of foods. Haven't had the same thing twice except their delicious 'finale' dish!
Awesome service. Waitress texted us a picture of our favorite bottle of wine, so we could find it on our own.
Amazing food, magnificent staff. We ordered the Feed me plate and every single meal was tasty, well coke and full of a great combination flavors. We loved it.
My favourite place in Edmonton, The food is sooo delish. I haven't been in a while but the pork belly and paella are must try if still on the menu.
Very impressive meal. Tried the "Feed Me" option where you give a budget and they bring you their choice. Excellent. Really loved the lamb meatballs.
My favorite spot! The food is always incredible and I love the wine selection. Glen always picks an amazing wine for us at a very good price point. All of the food is always amazing but the scallops are the best I've ever had!
Idk what to say, it's been almost two hours and my mouth is still watery from their bacon dish ... ????
Well... We had the "Feed me" on the menu. What can I say...? Simply amazing... The food was outstanding. Wine selection was good as well. Best dining experience I've ever had in Canada. The Service... I was a bit unsure of what to expect after reading some of the negative reviews. The service wasn't just good... it was outstanding.It started with Corey Called me back (around 3pm an hour before they open) after I had left a voice mail around noon that Saturday to make a reservation. This place is small and can be cramped.. but once seated, the hosts are attentive, very professional, and very good at what they do. I was called by my first name by Corey when asked if I wanted a cab. He even went outside with me to help me look for an overnight parking spot. Absolutely do not hesitate to spend an evening here. Make a reservation and be ready to spend some money but I'd gladly go out once or twice less a month just to enjoy this jem a bit more often! -Cody
Food was really delicious. Nice selection of wine, and great service:-)
Tzin is an absolute favorite for my wife and me. The atmosphere is very cozy and the owner is usually on hand serving tables and greeting diners. The food has never disappointed and is always worthy of the Feed Me option, ensuring that you get a proper fill of all the culinary delicacies Tzin has to offer. Having tried fine dining in several countries, Tzin still holds a spot in the upper echelon.
Last night was my first time at Tzin, and it was superb. We had placed ourselves in their hands with the Feed Me option on the menu, and we were pleasantly surprised with every dish brought out, each more delicious than the last. Thank you Kelsey for the wine recommendations and for a fabulous evening.
The best dining experience I have had in Edmonton. Amazing food. Amazing service. Amazing atmosphere. Highly recommend!
My best friend and I make a point to come here at least twice a year and always have the most amazing time. This has been one of my favourite places in the city for an elegant and upper-class experience. I was introduced this place in 2014 and if price was no object would recommend the "Feed Me" option as it expands the menu as well as ones palate. You really should make a reservation as well as keep in mind during holiday seasons that the dining time in the early evening will be firmly regarded to keep all reservations moving along. So if you can make a later reservation to completely enjoy being pampered with excellent food and service it would be worth your wile. Will keep coming back!
Pricey but delicious. Amazing.
Dinner
Excellent. The best restaurant in Edmonton. Service and food both 5 star. Could not be better - would recommend it to anyone and everyone.
Went here one evening after hitting the night market on Jasper Ave and we were dressed way too casually for this place. We didn't have a reservation either but they were able to accommodate us! This little restaurant only seats about 12 tables plus a mini bar. The menu was surprisingly large for such a tiny place.. I was expecting at least 4 or 5 entrées but they had at least 8.. And not the same as what you see online. We shared the mushroom dish, which was a nice neutral balance of all flavours on the plate. The mushroom was plentiful and the sauce was generous. There was also a little cracker of some sort (forgive my lack of knowledge) placed between the mushroom and tower of arugula, that was salty, but went well with all the flavours. An excellent appetizer. Next up was the duck breast over waffles. The duck was tender, and cooked medium well, not dry. The pairing with waffle and cranberries was amazing! This was my favourite dish. Something completely different from any comparable restaurant and a must try. 5 stars for this dish alone. Overall, 5 stars for this place. If you haven't gone yet, go. Grab a date and have a lovely time. We will definitely be back.
We had the most amazing dinner at Tzin, the food and service were both phenomenal!
Honestly an amazing dinner everything was amazing! Went with the feed me dinner (tasting menu) tried stuff I normally wouldn’t enjoy but I loved every single course. Super friendly staff who never let our glasses go empty and were super informative. Would recommend to anyone passing through Edmonton!
10/10 would recommend! If you love quality food, fantastic ambiance, with great service then I would highly recommend this restaurant. This is a quaint intimate restaurant and they have delicious food and wine. We have gone to many restaurants in the Edmonton area and Tzin was hands down one of the best for overall experience and quality. Loved it!
Went for the Valentine's day prepares menu and it was amazing. I don't know how they made the best tasting mushroom risotto I have ever had but it feels like a bit of black magic. They also made a bison sausage with a root vegetable puree that was so delicious that I could have had just the puree and would be satisfied with the meal. I am looking forward to coming back and trying out the chef's choice option on the menu. The location is quite small but it is very charming. The atmosphere is very intimate and I feel this is definitely a place for dates rather than a big group meal. If the regular menu items are as delicious as the Valentine's day menu then count me in as a lifetime fan.
Pro tip: choose the 'feed me' menu option.
This has been the best meal Ive had in months. Food is spectacular, very nice cocktails and great service. A must go in Edmonton!!

Excellent food and atmosphere
I love tzin so much! Frequented here a few times in the past and then booked a reservation for my husband's birthday last night. We had so much fun! Great service and the staff is just lovely. The food was awesome, We did the selection where you tell them how hungry you are and they just bring you random plates of different dishes to try. The dessert was also lovely. Will be back soon.
!! This place is the real deal!! The food was great, we really enjoyed the falafels, they were crispy and super moist, the steak was well seasoned and tender, the paella was well balanced (spicy, savoury and sweet) and the flourless …
Amazing tapas and wine!
Glenn was an excellent host and the food was delicious!
We opted for the "feed me" option, where based on your level of hunger they would bring you up to 7 dishes of food to share between the table. It was myself and another guest and we ended up having 5 dishes and a desert. They also paired wines with the dishes. We were slightly surprised that all of the dishes were just pulled from the main menu. We were under the impression that the dishes would be a feature for the evening instead of just options from the general menu. We also only enjoyed the first dish, which was a beautiful tuna tataki. I would not rush back to eat again any time soon. Quite surprised this restaurant is on the top ten list in Edmonton. Service and staff were excellent however!
Intimate dining experience. Food delicious, service friendly
When I was searching for a place to go for dinner for a bachelorette party, I found TZIN. I organized it with the owner of the restaurant and I was not disappointed. We were treated very well. The food was amazing and the wine was paired to perfection. The service was excellent and I would come back here for sure. It is a small space so I am glad we were able to fit. Thank you Glenn and staff for a wonderful evening.
My favourite spot in the city! The food and service are always outstanding
The best dining experience I have had in Edmonton. Amazing food. Amazing service. Amazing atmosphere. Highly recommend!
A cozy restaurant and the staff make you feel right at home. They accommodated our various dietary restrictions and allergies and we had a lovely evening. The food is delicious and the staff put the experience over the top.
Great food! Wonderful service! Amazing drinks Pasta was fresh and flavorful. The table next to us had the feature of truffles and the entire restaurant was that beautiful fragrance. I saw lots of families with kids, which gave that warm inviting feeling
I had my first visit to the restaurant just recently and now I regret everytime I walked past this place without giving it a try. The food is exploding with flavor. Not sure if they change the menu often but I high recommend the salad, pork loin and the mushroom gnocchi. The portions are small but the taste makes it very well worth it. I will definitely be coming back here again.
Loved the Lamb meat balls
Tzin hit our expectations completely out of the park. Friendly and personable service from owners Glen and Kelsey won us over immediately. Dishes were spectacular and flavours were exquisite. We will return as often as we can.
Enjoyed an excellent evening with my wife and friends at Tzin in December. As a first time experience we left the choice of selections up to our enjoyable host. The courses and accompanying drinks proved spectacular. We will definitely return. Can’t wait for the whiskey tasting event in January. Seems we were able to scoop the last four tickets. Thank you for making our first evening so pleasantly memorable for us. Cheers!
poor wine poor food poor presentation
Best place for tapas in town. Highly recommended.
Tried it for the first time tonight and was really impressed by the quality of food and service. They deserve all the good reviews and stars they got.
An excellent way to end the night. Service was professional and prompt, and the environment was cozy and welcoming. The tapas were very delicious.
Kelsey always makes cocktail hour a pleasant experience. It's a unique intimate experience one of a kind, Edmonton deserves this classy consistent quality experience. Go you won't regret it!
Perfect date night. Friends and colleagues recommended Tzin, so we made Valentine's reservations a couple months in advance. So glad we did. Wonderful, welcoming atmosphere and service. Food was spectacular with a special set menu for the holiday. Risotto was creamy and somehow still light. The pork belly and parsnip puree had me enjoying things I wouldn't usually order. The beef was tender and rich. My only nitpick (and I'm searching, here) would be the scallop mousse. I just prefer the taste and texture of scallop in it's natural state. The recommended wine and port pairings were spot on throughout the evening and the dessert was rich and perfectly decedent. At first, we were concerned that the tapas-sized portions would leave us feeling unsatisfied, but with the richness of the food it was just the right amount. (While my husband actually tapped out at dessert, he was still wishing for more of the pork belly afterward. XD ) The space is tiny and intimate, so reserve your table. It's definitely pricey, but the food and experience is worth it.
Such a great place, definitely recommend the "feed me" option where the chef creates your meal. The food is delicious and the service is excellent. Live this place
Easily the best food on 104th with such an interesting unique style. The ambience is great, super cozy. The portions are small tapas like and great for sharing. I would recommend everything, but if I had to pick, the bacon and gnocchi are my favourites. Great selection of drinks & wine. Just be sure to book well in advance as it is a local favourite.
Everything is delicious. If you aren't a picky eater choose the feed me option. You get amazing food that isn't on the menu. It's cozy, gourmet and elegant. A warm, welcoming and relaxing venue to enjoy delicious food! Go now! Perfect!
My husband & I love trying new spots and we came across Tzin Wine & Tapas Bar. We didn’t have a reservation and it looked very busy for a small intimate place. The waitress was very accommodating and sat us right away. Throughout our evening she was very pleasant. The food was wonderful and loved my apple tart desert! Definitely will come back!
We experienced Tzin Wine and Tapas restaurant for the first time on my husband's birthday. We did the “Feed Me” menu with wine pairing. It is without a doubt the best tapas restaurant in Edmonton.The food, the presentation, the staff and the atmopshere made for a very enjoyable and delicious evening. Chef Cory, you're amazing!
A fantastic dinner with absolutely great service! Our group of four opted for the tasting menu and were blown away with each dish (the beet Risotto was especially good!). Just wonderful overall and would highly recommend.
Delicious food, great wines, super friendly waitress. Love this place!
Excellent meal! The owner, Glenn took care of us and presented a wonderful variety of tapas
Cool little home in the wall with great service.
Edmonton's gem. Go full tasting menu. Worth it.
11 years ago we had the most amazing anniversary dinner at TZiN wine bar. Yesterday we relived the experience and start to finish Kelsey made it a night to remember for the second time. Highly recommend sitting at the bar. Highly recommend the "feed me" experience of food and wine pairing. Salted caramel steak.. Mushroom barley risotto.. "Bacon" Pork belly with apple everything. #drool
A STAPLE in Edmonton! Tiny place with a great wine selection and the owner is super knowledgeable about wine. Expect to pay quite a bit, but worth it for the experience. It's now my go-to for a night out with a friend now that Bibo is closed.
One of the best dining experiences we have ever received. The business owners Glen and his wife Kelsey were nothing but absolutely fantastic. They welcome you with a warm and genuine smile. Needless to say the food is espectacular and beyond any expectation. But I’m huge on customer service and this has been without any doubt the best customer experience I have received in the city. Search no more, this is the place you want to be .. trust me!
If you haven’t tried Tzin yet you are missing out! Absolutely outstanding staff and service greet you and explain the menu. Great dishes for sharing that are so full of flavour and presented beautifully too. You must try the bacon - perfect combination of pork with compote and a tiny bit of sweetness from the Calvados. Highly recommend for the perfect date night!
Fantastic food and fantastic service!
The best restaurant I've ever experienced. Anywhere, and in every way.
Best food in the city without a doubt. My tastebuds are taken for a Devine culinary experience with every bite. They make things I don’t even usually like which I end up enjoying the most. Aside from the food the drinks are excellent and the service is second to none. The price is expensive but worth it for sure. I would return weekly if my budget could afford it!
Such an awesome date night !!! Very Small and intimate venue but amazing place that encourages great conversation and food experiences!
The premier dining experience in Edmonton. The dedication in the service and the meals is evident. You feel like you are at a friend's place for dinner. The atmosphere is intimate but relaxed. Highly recommend the "feed me option." Be open-minded and be prepared to be amazed!
I LOVE Tzin! This is one of my favourite restaurants in Edmonton, they never disappoint. It's a great place to go for a date night, or if you just want to enjoy some delicious small plates! I would recommend Tzin to anyone and will be a forever customer there.
Very small place, but great service and excellent food despite the very under-sized kitchen area in front of restaurant. Great job on the flow and feel. Tenderloin was, by far, the best steak I've ever had!! #1 reccommended!!
The Flourless Chocolate salted caramel cake was insane! Well played. Good place to explore various tastes!
Food was really delicious. Nice selection of wine, and great service:-)
went here and loved it. It is one of the fancy millennial places in the city .
Delicious food, friendly staff. Small, unique space. Unforgettable night.
Amazing food, excellent service! You will not be disappointed.
Dine in
Off the beaten path. I recommend letting the chef choose a menu for you to enjoy culinary innovation
Awesome! Cozy restaurant with fantastic food, great service and tasty wine.
Exceptional food! Ask for their wine suggestions, you'll never go wrong. Every guest means a great deal and it shows. Heartfelt, considerate, an experience you won't regret.
Awesome
Love this restaurant! Such an enjoyable experience all around - cozy/intimate setting, excellent food & wine, and service that goes way beyond the standard. We will definitely be back.
the 'feed me' menu with wine pairings was excellent
Amazing tapas and wine!
Yikes, I'm sure it's much better when you're in the restaurant but with takeout... It's just such a miniscule amount of food that is kind of unexciting, that it's hard to justify a $160 price point (I know I know it's tapas, but maybe increase it a bit for takeout?). Local gem, not for me, but the food although unexciting is pretty decent. I'd pay $80.
My husband and I visited this place for the 1st time last night and after leaving we wondered why we had never been before now! Food, service and the cool vibe of this place was outstanding!!! Cannot wait to go back and try the rest of their amazing menu!????????❤
Amazing experience. Must try the "Feed Me" option as it gives you a sample of the whole menu list and the dirty martinis are the best I have ever had. Would recommend.
Like many tapas restaurants, excellent food and wine. Unlike some, excellent service, especially with the 'feed me' option: the host, who happened to be the owner for us, decides your courses based on any considerations you give him, and picks a wine to match. Expensive, fit for special occasions, and not to be missed.Restaurant is on the smaller side, so be sure to make reservations.
Meal type
*Went on December 28th 2018* This restaurant is one of my favorites in Edmonton. I try to reserve it for special occasions as it is upscale and pricey, but worth every dime. Make sure you book a reservation because the venue is small. I've taken my girlfriend here for her birthday for 3 years, it has become a tradition. It's essentially a gift for both of us. We always select the "Feed Me" option because it's easy and we're never disappointed. The fact that you can indicate preferences to your server and then kickback and enjoy is another reason why I love this place. The service is excellent as well, they seem to remember you even if they haven't seen you in 12 months! They go out of their way to make the night special. Make sure you ask for their drink recommendations, because they have some unique drinks not shown on the menu. The timing of when the dishes arrive is on point too and they seem to know when you're getting full. The menu does change throughout the seasons so it stays fresh. I'm sure we will be back for the next birthday.
This place is a chef/cook/foodie's dream. Everything negative you heard is true. Yes it's tiny. Yes you will be close to your neighbor. Yes it's loud. Yes you will need to make a reservation and have to wait. However here is what you need to know. The kitchen in this postage stamp sized restaurant is wide open and you can watch all your astounding food be executed and presented perfectly. If you are a cooking junkie, this will be like being front row at the very best show in town (don't worry, the chef's are obviously used to people staring at them and drooling at their creations, they won't be affected). Prices are extremely fair. The wine list is massive. Location is great. If you go in knowing what to expect as far as the atmosphere, you will have an amazing time.
Wow! Wow! Wow! What an amazing dining experience we had last night! We celebrated my partners Birthday here, and I am so very pleased that I had chosen Tzin!! Right when you walk in the amazing experience begin! From the decor, to the music, the wine and to the lovely staff! They really make you feel like you are dining in some exotic location! I really loved the fact that it is a small menu, so you know that the food will be fresh! But, my favorite, is to not order from the menu and allow the amazing Chef to just surprise you with different rounds of tapas! I'm am a big foodie and has dine in many fine dining restaurants. But nothing compares to Tzin! Thank you for an incredible night! Mark
Fantastic food and great service! We ordered a large takeout order and it was delicious and ready to go when we arrived to pick up. Highly recommend!
Absolute gem in Edmoton. I fell in love with this place since the first time my boyfriend and I went there a while back. Tzin offers chic, quaint ambient, exquisite food and amazing service. Highly, hilghy recommended.
My wife and And I went there for her birthday and couldn’t have been more delighted. Awesome service and incredible food. We would highly recommend the risotto wow! We will be back often
Nothing compares to Tzin. It's definitely maintaining a top spot in my books.
We had the most amazing experience. Top notch service and food!!!
Excellent tasting menu. Unique dishes with a great experience in layers of flavor. Owner was very entertaining.
Great service and food. Very nice place to share an evening with friends. Very small. Make a reservation.
Definitely one of my favorite restaurants to eat at in Edmonton. I highly recommend doing the 'Feed Me' option or at least ordering the 'Bacon' tapas. Sooooo delicious. The staff are very friendly and helpful - excellent service! They have some of the best chefs in town. This place is amazing. Make sure to make a reservation as the restaurant is very small. You probably won't get in without a reservation or will have a lengthy wait.
This was one of the first places my husband took me out to while we were dating. We've always had phenomenal service here. It's cozy, and romantic, and the wine selection is superb. It was only fitting that we held our wedding party dinner here too! Great place for date night, or an evening out with friends just the same.
Very good, but small portions for the cost. I would go again.
Wonderful flavours. 'Feed Me' is the way to go...you won't be disappointed.
A bit on the pricier side but you get what you pay for. The quality was excellent and the wine pairing selection was varied. If you get a chance try the Icelandic Cod. Get the "Feed Me."
Outstanding service, experience and the meal was amazing. I highly recommend this gem of a restaurant.
Great experience with different courses. Very welcoming!
Fantastic. Enjoyed celebrating a birthday at Tzin, it was a perfect and memorable evening. Highly recommend the "Feed Me" menu. We received plate after plate of gourmet dishes which were catered to the food 'likes and dislikes' of our group. What a wee gem of a place this is. Looking forward to going again!
Awesome! The owner is fantastic, great service and amazing food. Very NYC vibe! Did I say the food was amazing!
Amazing tapas!! Paella and the bacon are amazing!
Incredible experience every time. The food is to die for, the wine selection is amazing, and the staff are so nice. It's a very small, intimate restaurant, but that adds to it's charm. Best to make a reservation. We did not have one, but they were wonderful accommodating us with a short wait. Definitely recommend the Bacon as well as the Meatballs. Drool-worthy!
Amazing amazing restaurant. You got to try the paella. It was incredible.
Sensational food and service. Reservations are a must.
Kelsey always makes cocktail hour a pleasant experience. It's a unique intimate experience one of a kind, Edmonton deserves this classy consistent quality experience. Go you won't regret it!
Chose the feed me option, where they bring the chefs selections, some from the menu and some seasonal items...along with a very nice bottle of merlot, made for a great evening
You know that one dish that you make, your show stopper. It's a knock out and everyone loves it. EVERY SINGLE DISH THESE @#$$& GUYS MAKE IS AN ORDER OF MAGNITUDE BETTER THAN THAT. Oh, and get some dessert, it will pair well with your salty salty tears of inadequacy and joy.
Amazing food and great service! I highly recommend "feed me" option!
This is an absolute hidden gem! Took my wife out to celebrate her retirement and what a great experience. From the food to the wine selection to the service - all top notch. While the wine selection is not abundant - it’s all quality stuff that’s not normally found in your average restaurant or liquor store. The food was about the best we have had anywhere - period. The portions were perfect to share so you could try 3-5 dishes. The house special “bacon” , duck risotto and the Wild mushroom gnocchi were our favs - but they were all fantastic. Top that off with amazing friendly service - and you have a night out to remember. Can’t wait to we come back to town and hit up our new favourite place to eat in Edmonton!
A true gem. Great service, food, wonderful wine selection, and perfect setting.
Amazing food, unique atmosphere.
One of my favourite go-to restaurants in Edmonton. Each dish is composed with unique elements that add incredible flavours. The scallops and char were cooked just right. The service was warm and the wine recommendation tied it all together. An all-around great experience.
What you waiting for? Stop reading and just go!
Man oh man, the food is amazing!!! And the service! Absolutely delightful! 100% recommend
I forgot to take pictures because the food was so good. Definitely will come again!
Tzin thank you for an amazing experience! Perfect dinner for our anniversary celebration.
You gotta try the Feed Me Option, it's best way to discover the restaurant! The owner gave us the perfect experience of Tzin. He's very passionate and it shows, a true restaurateur. I will definitely be back.
Amazing. Make reservations and enjoy the ride. They pair food with wine perfectly. Try everything. We did the 'feed me' option. Man oh man was it good.
Easily the best food on 104th with such an interesting unique style. The ambience is great, super cozy. The portions are small tapas like and great for sharing. I would recommend everything, but if I had to pick, the bacon and gnocchi are my favourites. Great selection of drinks & wine. Just be sure to book well in advance as it is a local favourite.
This was my first time here and let me tell you, being a business owner myself you don’t have to go far in this world to find bad service. Glen the owner took care of us beyond 10/10 expectations, this was one of the best experience and meals I have had in the city of Edmonton. I was celebrating my 1 year of business myself and Glen made it a night to remember with his perfect “feed me” menu and perfect wine paring. This is a must try for anyone who wants to experience something spectacular.
Words cannot describe the experience of eating here! Glenn the owner was around the entire evening to make every decision based on a couple cues given by my wife and I. The chefs are world class and the food balances sweet and savoury majestically. Highly recommend this restaurant!
Superb food and wine
Such an amazing dining experience. My boyfriend took me here for our 3-year anniversary dinner. After reading the reviews, we had some pretty high expectations. They were all met! We decided to go for the "Feed Me" dining option along with wine-pairing since we wanted to try a bit of everything. Every dish was cooked to perfection and absolutely delicious. We were so impressed! We were so full, and not to mention a little tipsy, by the end of the meal. I didn't even think we could handle dessert until they brought out a slice of their Flourless Chocolate Torte with a cute little sparkler on it to wish us a "Happy Anniversary". The staff made us feel so so welcomed and appreciated. What a special little place. Highly recommend checking it out, whether you're a local that's never been or just a tourist visiting the city.
This is a very cozy little Tapas restaurant. The owner served us. He was very friendly and accommodating. We chose to have a sampling of whatever they thought was good. It was incredible. Very tasty dishes and one of the best pork Apple dishes we have ever had. I must try for any serious theater in Edmonton. Make sure to make a reservation as this place is very small.
Very kind and attentive staff with delicious food
Really incredible food and service. I suggest the "Menu down, Feed Me" menu option. The restaurant will do the rest and make sure you're satisfied. Highlyy recommended.
Wow. Just wow. I almost never write reviews but I would be remiss if I did not immediately acknowledge the amazing culinary experience I’ve just had at Tzin. Kelsey and staff were warm and professional, and she nailed wine pairings with their menu which took us on a journey. Everything that came out the kitchen was superb - the mushroom gnocchi was absolutely incredible. Classy. Delicious. Elegant. What a gem, can’t wait to return again soon.
Great for a cozy, intimate night. Glen was so accommodating. Went absolutely above and beyond. If you’re looking for an I yetsti g but delicious meal, this is your place. Will definitely be back.
Amazing food. Great service. A nice slow paced dinner. Perfect for date night.
This place is a gem
Enjoyed an excellent evening with my wife and friends at Tzin in December. As a first time experience we left the choice of selections up to our enjoyable host. The courses and accompanying drinks proved spectacular. We will definitely return. Can’t wait for the whiskey tasting event in January. Seems we were able to scoop the last four tickets. Thank you for making our first evening so pleasantly memorable for us. Cheers!
The staff treat you like they've invited you into their home. This is a true wine and dine experience. Believe me when I say there is nothing else like it in Edmonton. I recommend going with their "feed me" option so you can sit back and relax and enjoy the surprise and taste of each dish that is brought to you. The Chefs have incredible talent. You will experience flavours that will leave your taste buds in euphoria. 5 Stars. I have never had a bad experience out of the many times that I've been.
Outstanding small plates and atmosphere. Great for dates or small groups who love food. Excellent wine list. Edited to add: We still love to visit Tzin! The best restaurant in Edmonton!
Our reservation was delayed but the owner was more than accommodating. We felt completely taken care of and the food was completely worth it. Check this place out, its worth it!
Had a lovely evening with my friends. We let our server choose for us and he did an amazing job. 4 people and two bottles of red got us to about $90 per person. But for a splurge night out it was worth it.
Always an amazing experience! Although they are closed for dine in, please check out their options for pick up! I ordered dinner for my partners birthday and Tzin always goes above and beyond! A beautiful meal with a bottle of wine and a complimentary playlist, made his quarantine birthday feel almost normal. Can’t wait for another gorgeous meal when they open their doors. Please check them out and keep businesses like Tzin open!! 10/10, 5 stars isn’t enough !!!
Edmonton's gem. Go full tasting menu. Worth it.
Tzin has some of the best appetizer plates you'll ever have! The bacon is indescribable.. Only word I can think of is unreal! The wine selection is fantastic. Just be sure to make reservations and prepare to eat A LOT
Dined here for our anniversary dinner! The absolute best meal we have ever had. Tried the “Feed Me” option and our server put together a menu for us. Every item was better than the last and they were all phenomenal. The service was also incredible. This place does not miss a beat. Highly recommend!
Flew in from Ontario for work and a couple friends brought me out for dinner. Did the surprise tasting menu. Small restaurant but super cozy, the food was incredible, and the service was phenomenal. You won't find a better experience in Edmonton. Will definitely be returning.
Amazing dinner to share, would definitely recommend to all friends and family. We chose the"feed me" option and had the chef's make us dishes of their choice, it was absolutely delicious!
Very small ,limited seating and lack of selection in menu. Food was good not excellent for the price .Noisy atmosphere with no true intimacy. Servers were ok . There are better restaurants out there for the price .
It was an absolute fantastic experience. The staff were friendly and attentive and the food was superb. We opted for the "feed me" suggestion which they bring you seasonal plates. It was a fun and exciting way to experience food we might not have otherwise. The bacon option and salmon plate were by far the best meals we have had (big call but it was that good!)
Awesome as always
This is a really intimate restaurant with spectacular food and a warm, welcoming vibe.We took advantage of the "Feed Me" option, and were rewarded with plate after plate of delightful flavours, plus great recommendations on wine pairings.
Really cozy tapas restaurant to casually dine with friends or on a date. Food was delicious. If you’re unfamiliar with tapas, then the portions are extremely small. Host was accommodating. Atmosphere was lively when I was there but not too loud where you can’t talk.
Excellent in every way
If you do not try the bacon thingy when you get here you have not had a complete meal. The chef is indeed in his element. All his creations are unique.
Amazing service, quality food, fantastic atmosphere. Highly recommend the "feed me" menu option.We were honored to be their first dining customers since December
Food is fantastic. Service is great. Hidden gem.
Would highly recommend this restaurant! The tapas were delicious! The “feed me” option is so fun. Go with a group and enjoy! One of my new favourite places! The server also did an amazing job choosing wines for us after giving her a couple descriptors of what we were looking for. Such a great night out! Oh also, BEST desserts in the city! The chocolate torte with salted caramel sauce is out of this world and lemon curd tart was fabulous!
Love this place. Always a great meal and a great experience. Service is top notch. My wife and I always go with the "feed me" option and it never ever disappoints. Highly recommended!
What an amazing dining experience! The atmosphere in this restaurant is comfortable, upbeat, and busy in the most organized way. The service was spectacular, and we were treated by who I can assume are the owners, husband and wife, like we had known them for years. It was laid back yet professional, and the food was spectacular. I recommend letting the staff choose your meal for you! It was such a fun and personal Saturday evening with some of the best seafood in the city. This is definitely the new dinner spot for me, and would recommend anyone to give Tzin Wine & Tapas a try. Thank you for a great night ????
Great experience. It's easy to see that each dish is carefully prepared, and flavours are paired together with consideration for trying something new and interesting, but not pushing anything too extreme. We had the tasting menu ("feed me") and requested that the plates included the gnocchi and bacon, based on other reviews. These were both absolutely excellent, but the trout really knocked it out of the park. Highly recommend.
Very personable staff, interesting food, I recommend the Paella. Wine has a good cross section for a small venue. Very intimate.
One of the best places I have been to, great food and it's cozy size and atmospheres make for a great experience highly recommended.
Everything was amazing! Food was delicious and very creative. All fresh and well thought out. Love the space. More intimate. This gem could have been in a much larger city and it would still shine. We had the tasting menu and the wine pairings. Everything was amazing including the service. A 2 person team that just rocks. They even had the delicious Empress Gin! Haha Will definitely be there again.
Tzin's has always been a "go to" for us when we are in the city.....had the privilege of attending a private dinner there last night and it did not disappoint! Exceptional service, astoundingly good food, and perfectly paired with fantastic champagne. If you have not been here, why not?
This place rarely disappoints. Small but good selection of food items. For drinks , I suggest stick with regular ones, and don't try cocktails not on the menu.
Excellent food, wine and service!
The owner and his wife are the most amazing people ever! An enjoyable date place for sure.
Splendid food. I ate here a few years back and came back recently. I remember it being a great dining experience back then, and it was a delightful time in 2019. Sharing is caring as it's tapas style. The Lamb meatballs: delish. Maple Back bacon: delish. Both desserts: delish. We had others, but those were my highlights. It's a small place, so book or go later in the evening.
Delightful restaurant, fabulous staff
Had an amazing experience here for our anniversary. Highly recommend the feed me option. The food and service were all top notch. Our server paired the wine with our meals expertly and had some amazing menu recommendations.
I could go on and on about how great this restaurant was. The intimate setting made the whole experience so magical. The two servers were so detail oriented, kind, and informative. The cocktails were 10/10. We ordered from the chef’s …
Great service, great food, great atmosphere.
Best date spot in town. choose the feed me option you won’t be disappoint and you certainly won’t leave hungry. High quality ingredients that are put together brilliantly. This is not your average dinning experience. Amazing food and wines.
Not the restaurant the cars they had there?
tasty food
What a great dinner. We did the tasting menu with pairings and it was fantastic. I really liked how they could keep bringing courses until you were full Food was great. Atmosphere is intimate and romantic. Service was spot on. Can't wait to go back.
Very cozy intimate place. The service was fantastic and the experience itself was great! Yum!
I had read a few reviews about Tzin before visiting Edmonton and it sounded like a restaurant worth trying. The people were right! Tzin has a wine list and menu that might make you think pretentious, but it’s warm and cozy and if the owner is at the bar you can chat and get some good recommendations. My opening dish was white tuna with dill and balsamic. Awesome. I followed it up with mushroom gnocchi that was simply the best gnocchi I’ve ever had. The owner suggested I top it off with the baked apple and caramel tart. Great call. I left satisfied with a meal and an experience that was well worth the price. I highly recommend!
This restaurant is the light of heaven in my food list.And it’s also the reason why I com to Edmonton again
Alright, right from walk in the place is an experience! Small and comfortable, maybe seats 22-24 people, so definitely recommend reservations! Watching the cooks, sitting at table #1 is always an experience, watching them take their precious precise time with each plate, such beauty when plating! Taste, absolutely phenomenal. Had the Downtown menu they hosted for this week, I guess not their regular menu (so all the more reason to go back). Glen, hoping I spelt that right, the Owner, is an absolutely fabulous and kind hearted gentleman! Such a wonderful business owner. The food was to die for, hit each Taste bud with such unexpected surprises, and all cooked and served in incredibly timely manners. DEFINITELY recommended for small groups wanting to indulge in high quality food. A big thankyou to All of the staff.
Dine in
Everything was amazing. Food, service, atmosphere. Top notch
Absolutely amazing food! Great wine!! Very welcoming, friendly and knowledgeable staff!!! Highly recommended!!!!
Great wines, great beers, great small bites. All the food here is very tasty. Nice atmosphere in the tiny little place. There is room for maybe 20 people in there, so make a reservation! The staff are super attentive, knowledgeable, and friendly. You can watch your food being cooked in the tiny kitchen. I've been twice and would go again for sure.
This place is amazing. I’ve been here a couple of times and the service and food are phenomenal. I suggest getting the “feed me” and allowing for them to choose the wine for you as well. It isn’t a cheap meal but worth every damn cent. The owners are some of the nicest people on the planet.
Had the "feed me" option and it was delicious and fun. Servers were nice to des with.
I can't say enough about Tzin. The food is off the chain and the service is something special. I highly recommend the "Feed Me" option - just make sure you get Bacon! It's unbelievably delicious!
We had been to Tzin on a previous visit to the city, to enjoy a late night glass of wine. Our gracious host Glenn wrangled up some in house made sausage which was delightful and made some wine suggestions that were dead on. He also invited us to come back and experience the full menu sometime. Last night we returned and took him up on that invitation. Let me start by thanking Glenn and Kelsey for being superb hosts and also thank Chef McGuire and his team. The experience as a whole was outstanding. Glenn and Kelsey provided a unique and warm atmosphere, plenty of wine suggestions, and friendly and informative conversation. We chose to let the house decide our culinary fate and would not hesitate to do so again. It was outstanding from beginning to end. Thank you Glenn for round two of the bacon????. This establishment is a jewel. The total dining experience is hard to find these days but Tzin not only met the mark, they exceeded it and set a new level. We have found our dining home when in Edmonton and will be back. Thank you all again for the memorable experience. Chef, keep doing what your doing so well and to which you obviously take pride in doing. It shines through in your dishes. As a retired Chef myself, your food is nothing short of excellent. Cheers
Can't recommend this place enough. Everything was absolutely amazing. The best service I have ever had. Can't wait to return.
Small and cozy and really friendly owner. Food and wine was great, would definitely recommend!
Each dish we had was just purely amazing. One of the best restaurants in Edmonton. I am definitely going back.
HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!! LOVE LOVE LOVE this place! I have been here a few times (date nights and even when my mom came to visit) and have always loved the food, wine and atmosphere! The people who work there are amazing: friendly, knowledgeable, helpful, attentive!! They change menu and always surprise us with new fun tapas!! FOOD IS DELICIOUS!
