We were seated inside,…read moreas it was a bit chilly, but walked outside after dinner to take pictures on the back deck with the most wonderful views!! I was with a large group, we brought wine with us and wine glasses were brought to the table immediately, along with ice water and warm rolls. I ordered the haddock, those around me went with scallops, mussels and seafood chowder and everything was fresh and delicious. My only suggestion is with the vegetable side, which appears to always be peas and carrots...I guess I would check in with the customer on that when ordering. I had no idea that peas and carrots were automatic, I don't eat cooked carrots, and they could have been saved for another customer. Dessert was a BIG hit with the group. Three ordered GIGANTIC slices of coconut cream pie and one, a most perfect slice of strawberry rhubarb with cold house made vanilla ice cream slowly melting on the top. Overall, a lovely night. A comfortable restaurant, where you can dress up if you wish, or not, with extremely fresh seafood prepared excellently.

Baguette was crunchy crisp outside and soft inside, perfect for the butter to soak in. I got a bowl of chowder and a Lobster Ceaser for dinner, also ordered at the table were sautéed shrimp and fries, and the lobster dinner. Chowder is thin instead of creamy, and fairly bland. However, after adding a bunch of salt, some Tabasco, and a little pepper, I drank every last drop. The sautéed shrimp were great, as well as the fries, and the lobster came out full of meat for the price. Meal: 4 Our waiter Cliff was fantastic. Very polite and accommodating, service was quick and responsive, and he noticed our table had a wobble so he got a shim to fix it. Service: 5 The men's room had a strong odor of old urine and could use some TLC. Restroom: 2 They had live music, which I don't really like, but we sat far enough away that it wasn't overwhelming and he was pretty good and played a good variety. No rating

She got our water and order in fairly quickly but otherwise provided minimal service. Ordered a lobster Mac and a hot lobster roll. Both were mediocre to terrible. The lobster did not seem fresh on either dish. The cheese was bland on the mac and the roll and was served with a hot dog bun (?!) and some cream based sauce on the whole plate which made everything soggy. Live music was nice. Beers were also mediocre. Would not return though the price was economical when converted to USD

By the time we found Lavena's I had had my fill of fried food. I was pleased to see the variety of options and fresh preparations available at Lavena's. We had the last of the rapure pie (an Acadian mix of potato and chicken), scallop and haddock chowder, and salted fish cake with green tomato chutney. Everything was delicious and NOT deep fried! The rapure pie was a new discovery for us and my husband found it hearty and comforting. The chowder was full of huge chunks of fish, potato and scallops with a nice light broth - green onions a simple but nice addition of flavour. The fish cake was good size, soft with a lot of fish. The lemon pie was light, lemony and not to sweet, a nice finish to the meal. I was hoping to come back for dinner after we explored Brier Island, but learned they close at 3pm (September), maybe they are open later during prime season. I'm hoping to return to the area and Lavena's one day!
