Located in the Cameron Heights community, this is the spot in Edmonton for surf and turf. A fine dining ambience and a menu with comforting steak and fish dishes will all be supplied by local farmers and mongers. The surf and turf menu has classic options with modern twists, like the BC spot prawn cocktail served with a maple chipotle squash ketchup and entirely new creations, such as the crab kale and artichoke dip. There will also be a new woodshed burger to have the best of both worlds all in one place.

Flirty Bird specializes in Nashville-style hot chicken, including sandwiches, tenders, fries, and all of the sides. There are six different spice levels to choose from when picking out the chicken meal you’d like to try. The “no flirt” option means there’s no heat at all, and the “scorchin’ flirt” boasts of being the hottest chicken in the city. There’s a chicken sandwich, a chicken tenders meal, and the flirty fries. Simple and easy is the concept here, and it works because the food is so good. The flirty fries come with chopped chicken, slaw, comeback sauce, and pickles.
