    The Red Apple Restaurant has a wonderful variety of Chinese and Western cuisines. It's located in the core downtown Yellowknife at Franklin Road. The staff is extremely courteous, warm and friendly. The food platter is delicious and the portions are massive compared to any other restaurants. Would highly recommend it if you're craving for some Chinese and Western cuisine in Yellowknife.

    While chasing the Northern Lights in Yellowknife, I stumbled upon Red Apple Restaurant — it turned out to be the warmest meal of my entire trip! The food was delicious and perfect for the cold weather. It warmed me up from the inside out! The service was also very friendly and made me feel right at home. After a hearty meal, I was recharged and ready to go aurora hunting — such a perfect arrangement! Highly recommend this place to anyone visiting Yellowknife!
