The place we wanted to eat at didn't open until Thursday, so we ended up next door to here. I was a…read morelittle worried it would be a tourist trap with all the lobster kitsch, but it was so popular, that we decided to give it a try. We sat at the bar and had a nice conversation with the bartender. I ordered a Capitaine Homard draft: it was fantastic. Once seated, we ordered the "Captain's Platter-a Must!" which was a whole lobster, served with smoked salmon, mussels, langoustines, nordic shrimps and whelks. Served with bouillabaisse and fries. I don't know what happened, but it took over 45 minutes to get our food, while people around us, who ordered after us, had their whole lobsters etc served before we got served. I don't mind waiting for a good meal, but when the food came, the lobster was very dry and the whelks were sadly rubbery. The broth was not great. When you're paying $68 for a meal, you want it to be properly cooked. The fries, however, were good and the smoke salmon was excellent. We did try the cheesecake with raspberry coulis for dessert and it was delicious. We got spectacular views of the sunset during and after dinner. I really loved their placemats; they were really pretty. I should have tried to buy some before I left. I would maybe give them another try and order something else expensive, to see how it would turn out.

Lovely water views. Lobster in so many different ways. Instagram worthy photos inside. Worth the…read moredrive! This place blew my mind. It was amazing to walk into. My jaw dropped when I walked in. It was so cool. It was overly done like a ship with lobster memorabilia everywhere. Everyone in the place was taking photos...they even have a swing inside! I had the lobster rolls and they were fresh and tasty. The lobster tasted like the sea and it was delicious. It's just a 15 minute detour off the highway from quebec to gaspe. But it is definetly worth the drive out. They also have a lovely campground near the water which was pretty nice as well. It's a tourist attraction and I honestly can say if you are in the area I would not miss it! Theres the submarine close by so stop here before and after that visit...you're welcome!

While driving through the Gaspesie region of the northern St Lawrence bay in Quebec we saw this…read morerestaurant- and the parking lot was packed for lunch. The menu item of a lobster club drew my attention. It was delicious and huge. Paired well with their sangria. I was in lobster heaven. Gaspésie National Park (French: Parc national de la Gaspésie) is a provincial park located south of the town of Sainte-Anne-des-Monts, Quebec, Canada in the inland of the Gaspé peninsula. The park contains the highest peak of the Appalachian Mountains in Canada, Mont Jacques-Cartier, 1,270 metres (4,170 ft) above sea level. In addition, the park contains the only population of Caribou found south of the Saint Lawrence River in Canada

Assurez-vous de réserver à l'avance puisqu'il est presque toujours plein, et surtout si vous désirez une des tables avec vue sur la riviére (la vue est incroyable). Assurez-vous de prendre: -Pain au fromage et à l'ail (avec ou sans crevettes) : 9/10 - TELLEMENT bon, si savoureux, si riche, si délicieux. Un vrai régal. -Homard!!!: Bouilli 9/10, Grillé 10/10 - Le homard grillé est absolument exquis, car il est moins aqueux et a une saveur fumée plus concentrée. Le bouilli est aussi absolument génial. En tant que personne n'ayant PAS un petit appétit, je opte soit pour un 2 livres, soit pour le spécial avec 2 petits homards (vous pouvez en obtenir un grillé et un bouilli pour comparer !). Le homard a l'air gros jusqu'à ce que vous réalisiez qu'il n'y a pas beaucoup de chair à manger. Trempez ce homard dans un délicieux beurre à l'ail et wow, pas de mots. Les accompagnments ne sont pas les star. Le riz n'est pas très savoureux, leurs frites sont décevantes, leur salade est plutôt bonne cependant, et vous pouvez également vous procurer une pomme de terre au four avec de la crème sure (pas super interessant mais ca fait l'affair). -Pudding Chomeur : 12/10 - Ne laissez pas passer ça. J'aime tellement le pudding chomeur, et celui-ci est chaud, gluant et divin. Une bouchée n'est que des saveurs douces et caramélisées du paradis. English: Le Matelot is one of my longstanding favorite seafood spots in the Rimouski region. The servers are always very kind, and the location is beautiful. Make sure to reserve ahead of time since it is almost always full, and especially if you want one of the tables that looks over the St-Lawrence (the view is incredible). Make sure to get: -Cheesy Garlic Bread (with or without shrimp): 9/10 - SO good, so cheesy, so rich, so delicious. A real treat. -Lobster!!!: Boiled 9/10, Grilled 10/10 - The grilled lobster is absolutely exquisite, as it is less watery and has a more concentrated, smoky flavor. The boiled is absolutely great as well. As someone with NOT a small appetite, I either go for a 2 pounder or for the special with 2 small lobsters (you can get one grilled and one boiled to compare!). Lobster looks big until you realize that there isn't much flesh to actually eat. Dip that lobster into delicious garlic butter and wow, no words. As for sides, they're not the star of the show. The rice isn't super flavorful, their fries are dissappointing, their salad is pretty good though, and you can also get a baked potato with sour cream (boring but does the job to fill you up). -Pudding Chomeur: 12/10 - Do NOT pass this up. I love pudding chomeur so much, and this one comes out warm, gooey, and so homey. The flavor is just like a comforting hug of sweet, caramelized fluffy goodness.
