In fact, it was so good for lunch, I decided to make a return trip this evening for dinner -- and both meals were phenomenal. For lunch, I tried the tofu sandwich, and I have seldom enjoyed a sandwich more. It came on their in-house baked whole-grain bread, along with tomato, fresh greens, hummus, a light balsamic dressing, and a lemon tahini spread. For dinner, I ordered their enchilada -- and not only was it delicious, it was enormous. Although I had to wait about 30 minutes for a table because it was so busy, this was a great final meal in St. John's. Highly, highly recommended -- you won't be disappointed.

I'll echo what the other reviewer said. This isn't fine dining, it's basically take-out grade food…read more-however with those expectations- it's fine enough fare. I had a beef kabab as an appetizer ($3.99) and the chicken curry as a main course ($7.83)- very reasonable prices for a sit-down restaurant. The curry was nothing to rave about- microwaved and pretty basic. Maybe it would have some pizzaz if it was fresh. But as a healthy alternative to Quiznos, Mr. Sub or all the deep-fried fish in this town- it's decent food. I loved the kabab, though, spicy beef and veggies covered with a sauce and served on a hot pita-style naan. These would be a hit if served chicken-shawarma-style to university kids. When I go back I'll probably just buy a couple of these as my meal. Give the place a try.

I appreciate that the sandwich isn't overly saucy, making it easier to eat on the go without a mess. Between the two options, I prefer the bagel as the cream cheese adds a satisfying bite and makes it less dry compared to the chicken sandwich. This restaurant is located in a house at the corner of the street, with two patio sections on either side. When you walk in, it appears cozy with limited seating. However, if you walk to the right through the door, there is ample seating next door and a self-serve water station.

I had my eye on the PB&J burger that I had seen on Yelp, as peanut butter is my favorite thing ever! This burger did not disappoint. While the combo sounds strange, the flavors were well-balanced with the brie cheese, caramelized onions and bacon. The meat was cooked to a perfect medium and the hamburger bun was soft. I chose the kettle chips for my side, and they tasted house made. Very delicious! The only thing I didn't like about this burger was the price tag = $22. Hubby had the seafood chowder for $17 and it was enough for a full meal. He said the chowder was very flavorful and full of seafood. He was in heaven! We both ordered a Quidi Vidi 1892 amber ale on draft. They only had 7 beers on tap and I wished that they had a medium or dark beer, but this area doesn't seem to be big on that. They do have Guinness in a can, if that's your thing. Service was friendly and the food came out relatively fast. The booths were comfy and the pub reminded me of a cozy neighborhood bar. Definitely worth checking out if you're in the area!

The oysters were super good and fresh (obviously) and I liked the pickled onion they gave as well. The crab was alright. It was baked so it's harder to get the meat clean off and it was quite dry. I prefer it being boiled as you also get the juice from the meat. It was heavily seasoned (personally just like my crab plain). It was well worth it though with the side dish and the amount of crab you get. The chowder was good. I really liked it but it was quite small, even as a main course meal. The downside, I got an upset stomach and threw up later that night. (thankfully not food poisoning but still a bit turned off) I'm not sure if it was a bad oyster or the chowder but I shared the crab with my mom and no one had my chowder.

My work colleague had mentioned to me that this place is famous for their Breen's famous turkey sandwiches. I was somewhat intrigued to see what this was all about! So I ordered the famous turkey with a pea soup $9.99. You had a choice of cranberry mayo or regular mayo. You pick up your meal from a sliding window that's hilarious (like a prison window). The sandwich came out as a heaping serving of real turkey with stuffing and mayo. The soup was really delicious also. Very thick purée of pea soup in a ham broth with a slightly sweet turnip tasting thick consistency. Overall it was amazing! There is a small area to eat in but fills up very quickly at lunch. The somewhat lack of restaurants in St John's means this place is pretty busy! Come get a Turkey Sandy, you won't be disappointed!
