Fish and chips
Kim L.

On the water dining but also has indoor dining area. Casual restaurant with mostly seafood options. Generous lobster rolls and tasty fish and chips. Friendly staff and good service.

Felipe H.

food was great, price was alright, but the dish size is big enough to fill you up! service was great too. as for the ambience, it was really nice we were right on the water and they even had blankets for if you get cold. would recommend though there are no reservations so first come first serve!

One of the best lobster rolls I've had!

Fantastic spot for a meal. Lobster roll was absolutely sublime! My wife loved her nachos and the carrot cake was delicious. Our server Sam put the whole experience over the top for my wife and I with her island charm!

View from our outdoor high top table

I enjoyed a lovely dinner as the sun was beginning to set. We were fortunate to score a high top table in the shade and out of the breeze. The chairs included a very low back support which I appreciated. Our waitress promptly brought us water and our drinks. We did not feel hurried, but attended to. My husband enjoyed the crab cakes and I had the Buffalo chicken sandwich. I had a chocolate cheesecake for dessert, which was so rich. I could not finish it. We are staying in a camper, so have a very small fridge. Waitress was kind enough to bring us plastic wrap for the remnants of the cheesecake rather than a large plastic box. All in all, a lovely dinner at a beautiful spot!

Seafood Linguine was spot on.

The food here is absolutely delicious. And I had the best Moscow Mule ever. Emma H was a fantastic server.

What a wonderful lunch stop! The Eatery sits on the harbor, so we savored our meal with gorgeous views of the water making for a terrific ambience. And it gets better: the food was scrumptious, starting with the fresh mussels cooked in garlic which made a tasty broth. The scallop burger was no less fresh and no less yummy. And they made us a delightful Caesar salad which was plenty enough for two people. Our server couldn't have been friendlier and more efficient, and the prices are right, too. The Eatery is behind the better-known Blue Mussel Cafe, which is also a good restaurant but more expensive and lacks the has the fabulous close-up water views. Count us as fans!

Crab dip and mussels
Tristan S.

Wonderful food, wonderful presentation! We ordered our food and ended up enjoying the scenery so much we actually took our meals to go so we could just enjoy some drinks. I had the crab dip which was absolutely amazing, my boyfriend isn't big on crab but adored it! He got the mussels which were fabulous as well. I can see this being a regular hangout of ours when we move to the island next year. Would definitely recommend to friends and family!

Roll was bigger than it appears. Took a couple bites before remembering to take pic :)

See all

Only tried this once. It was ok, not not great. Service was good, and of course, the view is amazing. But, overpriced for pub food

Seafood chowder tastes like bisque. Beware: they use shellfish juice and don't mention that on the menu.

Sea Rocket Oyster House - Outdoors

Sea Rocket Oyster House

Sea Rocket Oyster House is a great choice for lunch right on Victoria Row in Charlottetown. The…read moresetting couldn't be better -- a lively pedestrian street with cobblestones, patios, and music drifting in the background. It's the kind of place that makes a midday meal feel special. We ordered oysters, the Tartar-Salmon, Fish Taco, and the Tuna Katsu. The oysters were the standout -- cold, briny, and incredibly fresh. The tartar was bright and well-balanced, the tacos had a playful kick of flavor, and the katsu added a crisp, memorable bite. Everything felt thoughtfully prepared and rooted in local seafood. Service was excellent throughout -- friendly, attentive, and relaxed in the best way. Combined with the food and atmosphere, it made for an easy and enjoyable lunch experience. If you're in Charlottetown and want fresh seafood in a lively setting, Sea Rocket Oyster House is an excellent stop, especially on a sunny afternoon when Victoria Row is at its best.

This is a really nice place on Victoria Row. They have a corner spot with patio seating on both…read morecorners. There's also plenty of indoor dining spaces as well. If you're looking for a good vibe, this would be the place. Food-wise: There's a large variety of to choose from on the menu. We got a bunch of things to try and while it was all fine, nothing really stood out to me that made me think, "oh wow, that was delicious!" We did enjoy the fresh oysters though, but those are raw and don't really require cooking... lol. I usually love salmon tartare but something just tasted off about this one IMO. I will say that while our server was nice, the service was quite slow. It was Wednesday afternoon and not too busy. It took about twenty minutes for the oysters and then another 20 minutes for the rest of our food to arrive (so 40 long minutes of being hungry!) Trying to get the bill took forever too. We didn't see our server for a while so we asked another server that was helping another table. I'm not sure if she forgot, so I went inside to ask someone else for help. We waited and waited and our server came finally came (without the bill) so we had to ask for that and waited some more.

Vicinato Ristorante - Fabulous Lemon Meringue tart (meringue is fresh). Soooo good

Lemon curd filling and fresh meringue (flamed with a torch). Service was ok. It was a busy afternoon. Great location in downtown Charlottetown.

I made a valentines reservation for dinner for my girlfriend and I over a month ago. February 14, 7…read morepm, I have the emails and correspondence from the restaurant which I confirmed. We arrived at 6:55 pm, there was a couple ahead of us and they were seated at a table right beside the front entrance. We were told our table was being set up for us. After 5 mins passed, the lady from the couple ahead of us said she didn't like their table and they were moved to the table they were preparing for us. We were then offered the table they had left. I said I didn't want that table either but was told that was the table we had to take or wait 25 mins. This all happened right in front of my eyes and frankly I was shocked. So your restaurant effectively ruined our valentines date. - I made a reservation over a month ago and it was confirmed. -We were made to feel like second class, take a table someone else didn't want. - The table being prepared for us was basically stolen/given away with zero thought. Now what was I supposed to do? What would you have done? I was completely embarrassed in front of my girlfriend, made to feel like I had to settle for what was given to me. Totally unacceptable! We left because I was extremely upset. Ruined the date, ruined the night. We walked around town freezing trying to find a place to eat. We won't be returning. Apologies for no food review but you need to eat there first!
