Excellent food, all wait staff is friendly, helpful and professional. Food is well prepared and above average quality that you would find at other local restaurants. It is dining at its finest! Matt and his team make magic happen! :) you will not regret eating here - grab your friends and family and have a great night out! The owners are pleasant and have a beautiful place and you can tell they take pride in their establishment. If you have room for dessert I recommend the maple filled puffs - they are so creamy and delicious! ;)

There is nothing complicated about food, and nobody understood this better than the Italians.

Stunning Cheticamp, Cape Breton view of the sea waves crashing on the shore while dining in the main room. The restaurant featured a diverse menu and wine selection prepared to our liking. After a week of seafood throughout the Maritime provinces, I opted for a steak and it didn’t disappoint cooked exactly as I requested and paired with an Argentine Malbec. The service also was exemplary with the right combination of timely attentiveness , touch of Nova Scotian humor and timeliness. We’ll be back if we ever get back from Miami.
