    Food and service great. Live music much much too loud. We asked to be moved and were accommodated but it was still too loud!

    The food was awful! The lobster rolls and shrimp of the shrimp pasta were overcooked and gummy. The crab stuffed trout was disgusting and unrecognizable as fish. The calamari were good. That was the only thing. They really need to step up their game.

    Great meal. We had popcorn shrimp (excellent) oysters, and muscles. We also ordered the fish and chips, goat cheese salad, fish tacos and boiled dinner with corned beef. It was delicious. Service was excellent. Music was a little loud but very good.

    We ended up choosing to sit at the bar instead of a table, looked like the place to be! The bartender was awesome and despite being solo she managed to keep up a great level of service! We started with mussels (provincial) and the clam chowder, both were excellent. Had the halibut taco special for a main and it did not disappoint!! Great fresh fish, fresh toppings and some “out of the box” thinking! Thanks for a great night!

    Kiama our hostess and Devon our waitress were very kind to us. Our meal was good and our time with friends very memorable, and remember this that God proved he loves you by sending his son Jesus to die for your sins on the cross and if you believe in him you would not perish but have eternal life. John 3:16

    Em was a fabulous server. Food was delicious. Wines were good, not fantastic, but they grew on you. Fisherman’s Platter, fish and chips and lobster roll and clam strips were enjoyed by all. Overall a lovely evening.

    Needs seasoning for their fish. Otherwise it was good quality. Pollock isn’t a good fish choice.
