Offered to make a cocktail since there were no specialty holiday cocktails (a missed opportunity) I did take advantage of the holiday special menu. My partner ordered from the main menu. (It's great to have the choice) It started with the cacao sourdough with whipped strawberry butter. I had no hint of the cacao but it was still delicious. I had the squash ravioli as my appetizer. I would have eaten that as a main. I loved it. Honestly the best part of the meal for me. Add this place to your must go to. My main was seared salmon with lobster cream. I found the salmon a tad more done than I'd prefer but perfect if you like it well done. I took my dessert home with me. I have since eaten it and there was a saltiness I found as a turn off. The cherry chocolate torte otherwise was small but tasty. My partner had the turkey dinner. He thoroughly enjoyed it and finished every morsel.

Not a good experience at all. I ordered strip loin steak…read more BNo baked potato. Half the plate was taken up by a swirl of sweet potato which I did not order. The presentation tried to be artsy but failed miserably. Too much grizzle and fat on the steak. When I did eat a steak only piece it was good. But not med rare. Closer to blue. I ordered a lemonade. When the waitress served my steak she did not notice my empty glass and I had to ask another waiter to bring a refill. For the rating this restaurant had on Yelp, it was totally undeserved.

The service was very good and we had some local beers and then I ordered a Guinness to go with the lobster roll and poutine fries (which we never had). We were with a couple from the ship that lived in Canada who knew a lot about the area. The lobster roll was cold but it is supposed to be that way and came on a toasted bun. The poutine fries are served with gravy and according to the couple can be different depending on where you get it. It also had cheese curds in it, so if you are worried about clogging your arteries pass it by. Good stuff, and a good place to grab food and drink.

A "ceilidh" (pronounced "Kay-Lee") were Irish/Scottish musical gatherings in people's homes that were common in the area historically. This venue is helping to keep that tradition alive and supports local Cape Breton artists to perform regularly. It is a really magnificent experience. We had the pleasure of experiencing Dara on fiddle and Adam on piano. They shared music, told stories, and answered questions. It was very intimate, informative, and beautiful. There were people from all over the world. It is open every evening in tourist season (I think that was May to October but check first). Starts at 7:30 but get there by 7:15.
