11th Mile

So I’m a little amazed to be raving about sweet potatoes - but WOW. Salsa macha and sesame wouldn’t have been my first thought for a sweet potato dish, either, but the sour cream not only ties it all together, it takes the whole plate to the next level. Shout out to the staff, who were able to fit me and my friends in at the bar despite us showing up on a Saturday without a reservation. Across the boards: the food is extremely well-cooked, the flavors are all in balance, the portions are moderate but prices are very reasonable for the style of restaurant, and I’d be remiss if I didn’t mention the white lotus cocktail. Absinthe mixed drinks can be tough to pull off, and this one was perfect. Oh, and DEFINITELY don’t skip dessert. I’m extremely picky about my cheesecake, and this one was lovely 😊. (Ambience-wise, the restaurant is pretty and comfortable without particularly standing out. The food is definitely the focal point.)

Just finished eating here for the first time and what a fantastic spot. I have been in Fredericton for several years and I feel like 11th Mile for me is the same thing as those classic movies that everyone says they love, but you for some reason just never get around to watching. Well, this was our first day of my vacation Advent calendar I created for my wife for us to discover and eat our way around new spots (to us) in town and it's going to be hard to top this. Having travelled extensively in our lives, my wife and I both agreed that this felt like the trendiest place in town with an all around great vibe. The service was great and you could tell that the owners truly care seeing as how they were also out on the busy floor serving occasionally. That's always the first step to a great restaurant. Then of course comes the food. I've heard many say that while the food is fantastic, it's pricey. We would agree, but pricey for a good reason. You can tell that the ingredients are top notch. The cooking was perfect. The flavour combinations, often unique for Fredericton. The beef tostadas were a single bite but a myriad of flavours. The scallion pancake was reminiscent of our lives in China, but for folks who've lived there, it's a bit more doughy than we're used to. That said, delicious. The accompanying sauce was perfect. The flank steak at medium rare was cooked perfectly and unbelievably tender while the chimichurri sauce added a nice punch of slightly spicy flavour. Pork belly is a dish that is extremely popular in East Asia where my wife and I met and lived. This one was on par with some of the best dongporou I've ever had (it's not 东坡肉 for those who know the dish). The only thing I would say is it would be nice if there were either a salty or acidic addition to the dish to balance out the various sweet elements. The sauce does a nice job, but a little more could have perfected things I think. We also had one of the best white wines I think we've ever tasted here and are now hoping we can find it outside this restaurant. Finally, we finished things off with the peanut butter semifreddo which was Lucious, smooth and had the perfect balance with the crunch from the candies pecans. Well done 11th Mile, I should have come here a lot sooner.

Amazing meal, drinks, and service! Our table had a gluten and dairy allergy and we were still able to enjoy nearly the whole menu with modifications, which was so nice. The kitchen and serving staff are very knowledgeable and thoughtful.

Loved the atmosphere and the fun, flavorful bar snacks! We tried the Cucumber & Shrimp Salad, which had a unique and refreshing sauce. We ordered the Flank Steak and Cavatelli, but only got the Cavatelli due to a mix-up. It was delicious, though a bit heavy for me. The walnut cake for dessert was divine, with a homemade caramel that was to die for! Overall, despite the main dish mix-up, it was a great experience and definitely worth recommending.

Best restaurant in Fredericton? More like, best restaurant in New Brunswick! My family and I toured NB for a week and we had our last and best meal in NB here. Food was delicious, elevated, and fresh (e.g.: you could taste the sweetness in the shrimp). Service was warm, friendly, and efficient, and prices are fair. In terms of dishes, our favourites were the roasted carrots, brassica (broccoli), seared tuna, and chilled shrimp, but you can’t go wrong with anything here. Next time were back, we will definitely eat here again! Quick note: we went on a Saturday evening and it was packed all night. Reservations recommended!

This was an absolute banger of a restaurant. After eating for 10 nights in a row in Fredericton while in town for work, I was starting to feel like the nachos at my hotel were about the best thing I was going to have in town BUT thankfully we decided to try the 11th mile and I am so happy we did. It turns out that they have special taco Tuesdays and the tacos were most likely the best tacos I have ever had in my life including my yearly trips to Mexico! The rest of the food was great as well but I just want to stress how much I loved these tacos! What an amazing restaurant and I am seriously looking forward to my next visit. I was also fortunate enough to meet the owner Peter Tompkins and he was super great. If you are in the area, I highly recommend dropping in!

Traveled from out of town to visit this spot and once again, it did not disappoint. The food was fantastic- a great mix of upscale and comfort. But what really stood out were the staff. Such helpful and attentive care throughout our meal and they went above and beyond to make sure we were taken care of. Can't reccomend enough.

By far the best meal(s) I had in Fredericton. The menu was creative and delicious, and they had no problem accommodating my GF/DF restrictions. Great cocktails and alcohol-free options. Service was fabulous, and the atmosphere was fun. I went once solo and once with a group of 8—everyone had a fantastic time and an even better meal. Highly recommend.

This was hands down our best meal during 5 days in New Brunswick. The creativity and quality of the small plates was outstanding and the cocktails are legit (I had the go lightly which is a sake-based cocktail with orange blossom bitters). They have really elevated the dining scene in Fredericton and we had a chance to chat with the chef and his wife after our meal and they were so warm and kind. I love that the menu features a lot of local ingredients. On our recent meal there, our favourites were the green goddess salad (with lettuce from just up the street), asparagus with romesco sauce and serrano ham (took me back to my trips to Spain, the romesco sauce was just like the best ones I remembered from Barcelona), the cavatelli with broccoli almond pesto, and the olive oil cake. The other things we ordered were all excellent too including beef tostadas, roasted cauliflower and seared tuna. Definitely make reservations in advance as the space is quite small and intimate. Service was excellent. If you want to do one great meal in Fredericton, make it the 11th Mile.

Wow. That sums it up. Attention to detail in quality, freshness, presentation and taste. Treat yourself to this place and you will not walk away disappointed.

Cool menu, efficient service and centrally located, makes them a tasty choice for a tapas-experience.

Excellent restaurant. Tapas style.. Everything was tasty and well presented. Service was excellent. The exterior of the restaurant may not be very inviting but the restaurant inside is very nicely decorated

My wife made me wait several months to go so that we could go together. The wait was worth it. The atmosphere is the first thing that stands out-it's modern and cool but still manages to feel friendly. The staff are approachable and warm, and they knew exactly how to help out when I couldn't decide what to order. The drinks are phenomenal, the bartender is a master of his craft. I don't even know where to start with the food. We had the togarashi-spiced popcorn with our drinks, which blows all other bar snacks directly out of the water. I ordered the beef carpaccio and it was so perfectly tender and flavourful that I talked about it for days. To cap it off, I got the olive oil cake-something I haven't had in years-and it did not disappoint. I can't wait to go back, 11th Mile is easily my favourite restaurant in the entire Fredericton area.

Sublime! Service, food and cocktails are stellar. Would definitely return and freely recommend to anyone who likes good food and drinks. Doesn't put a foot wrong.

Small plates that are very creative bursting with flavours. Small restaurant with not many tables but worth the try

My first time to the 11th Mile accompanied by my friend visiting from TO. We were celebrating a special birthday. The dishes are small each packing its own unique sensational flavours. We ordered a few dishes to share. I wish we would have had room to sample all of the dishes. A delightful experience worthy of visiting over and over again. Thank you Jennie and Peter for bringing fine cuisine to Fredericton.

In town on business and went for dinner based on a local recommendation. Great spot with cocktails and a nice (mainly) small plates menu. Particularly enjoyed the beef carpaccio that was a new addition to the menu.

This restaurant is delivery something that has been sorely absent from Fredericton- a warm, welcoming atmosphere, cool vibe, real cocktails, and a menu that is consistently perfect. Small plates and entrees at amazing prices.
