Put simply, this is among the best fish and chips I've ever had. I got the one piece halibut and the bisque. The bisque has a chipotle coconut base, and it's unique and delicious. The fish was fried to perfection, and the halibut inside was a steamy triumph. I added some chipotle lime mayo for the chips. The tartar was lemony and crisp. Chips had that perfect crunchy outer shell with the pillowy potato innards. Cooked to perfection fish and chips while you watch the takeoff and landing of seaplanes. O Canada!

The wraps were a bit thin and the burrito roll wasn't fully... rolled. The structural integrity wasn't there (see photo). Would expect properly rolled for a 20$ burrito Maybe they had a new person on staff? Staff was super nice, was confused as to why there was like seven people in the back, four customers and it kinda took a while tbh Also.. they yelled out my name, and immediately turned around which was kinda funny, was awkssss Would be back again (probably when I'm fried)

For some reason, I assumed they would have margaritas - - I was wrong - - so I got wine in a plastic cup. Ordered the Salmon Mango Tacos - - too saucy for me.

Don't forget to try the housemade hot sauce; it's also available to purchase so you can enjoy it at home. Which I did, because I don't live locally and it's too good to not take home.

A solid spot with its own distinct vibe and an impressively long menu…read more Great for groups since there's something for everyone, and the portions are generous. Almost too much for one person. One thing that stood out: unlike most diners that only offer one brewed coffee option, this place lets you choose between regular and dark roast. Small detail, but appreciated. I went on a weekday morning, so there was no wait, but the space isn't very large, so I'd recommend making a reservation during peak hours. Staff were friendly overall, and the atmosphere is worth experiencing. That said, while the food was consistently solid, it wasn't particularly memorable. I ordered the Valentino, smoked salmon and poached egg on an English muffin with avocado, but the avocado was completely unripe, which brought down both the texture and the flavor. With a menu this wide, most dishes land in the "good" rather than "great" range, and execution details like that make a difference. If you're going for variety and the overall experience, you'll be satisfied, but if you're hoping for something exceptional, it may feel a bit underwhelming. Bottom line: a reliable brunch option for groups, as long as you're not setting the bar too high on the food itself.
