The place has a great outdoor patio with a fire pit for those cooler evenings and a roll-up garage door inside for those beautiful summer days. This place isn't very organized for larger groups and the staff could be a little happier if they are expecting a large tip. Food quality is ok but I would recommend somewhere else in town if you're expecting excellent seafood as this was just average.

The food itself was fresh however we found there could be more flavours used to grill the seafood. We had the lobster roll, oysters and fisherman's platter. Its a good spot for a bite if you're on the island since options are more limited!

As I reside in Quebec, I have been asked many times - "Have you visited Magdalena Islands?". They…read moreare just east off the coast of Prince Edward Island. So here I am, and best way to adventure on the island is, of course, tasting all the local culinary delights. After good recommendations from the locals, we chose this restaurant and came in on a Saturday evening in mid August - which seems to be their busiest season. Luckily we had booked our table days prior. Domaine du Vieux Couvent Is a medium class restaurant and working hard to become a classy one. We arrived at 5.35pm and the last main dish was served at 7.40pm. (Nice features on phone to capture exact location and time of every picture you take). So be prepared for a long wait, and I guess that's why they serve bread and butter when they hand out the menu. Luckily for us, we had ordered wine and were in good company. BTW, we poured our own wine, as the waiter was too busy. As we did so, we spilled some drops on the table. Not a big deal, as we just swiped them away with our napkins - hence the reason why there isn't any table cloth. (I think). We ordered mainly seafood and they were all delicious, especially the mussels. The sauce was well prepared, rich with flavours. Perhaps, not the kind of food if you were on a restricted diet. Pricey for what we ordered, but fortunately we were invited and were guests at the table.

This was a great meal…read more My boyfriend had the mussels, and the burger. He was just so happy! He keeps raving about the mussels and the broth. They have gf buns. I had the turkey club and it was not lunch meat like I expected, chunks of real turkey! Really great gluten free bread. It was too much food me with all the bread (basically 4 pieces of full sized bread). If get back here I would order it again but just have them put it in 2 pieces. I enjoyed it immensely. The fries are NOT in a dedicated fryer and are contaminated, but they can sub for mashed potatoes and they're darn good! Great waitstaff!

Adam got the fish and chips and it was good but not enough tartar sauce was given and they fried it in a way that was meh (the fish wouldn't stay inside the fried case).

I enjoyed their fish a lot (had the salmon and the cod) but they were slightly overdone. Not enough to make me not enjoy it though. But for fish connoisseurs, you'll notice. They give you the choice of soup/salad, main meal, dessert, and plenty of drink options. The servers are quick and so friendly. I loved eating here. In the morning they serve breakfast buffet style. They offer cereals, quiche, muffins, hard boiled eggs, homemade bread, juice, coffee, yoghurt, and plenty of fruits. Sadly no bacon. Breakfast is offered from 8-10am.
