Let me be clear, I take supporting Native-owned businesses very seriously. The website didn't…read morespecifically state it was, but given the name and location (across from the designated tiny reservation and yes I was disgusted with the little spec of land the Canadian Government gave them.) as well as the art on the walls, we had to assume that it was. The menus didn't provide any clues (indigenous foods or bio on the chef) and it wasn't until we asked about the bread that the server explained it was a traditional Native bread. That part was at least encouraging. However, first impressions were not. We walked in at 3pm on a weekday and there wasn't a soul. It took the "hostess/waitress" at least a full minute to look up from her phone. Strike 1. The establishment puts forth the online presence that it's fine dining yet the waitress had tattoos on her neck... strike 2. If we wanted a biker bar we would've gone to one. By looking around as we crossed the bridge from Fredericton city center, we crossed a "value boundary" and we were definitely on the wrong side of the tracks... we tried to look beyond that and focus on spending tourist dollars where it means the most.....the hostess/waitress really made that challenging. When she finally decides to grace us with her attention span she begins to interrogate us as to how long we will be as they have reservations 2 hours from now.... ?!?!?!? Uh, as long as it doesn't take you that long to cook it.... mind you, not a soul in the entire place... it was like an SNL skit. Thankfully it was shift change and we got a young man that was at least an upgrade in the attitude department. We ordered the lobster roll (when in Rome in that part of the world), haddock stew and seafood fettuccini. While both entrees and the soup were decent, it was not a $50 lobster roll. We're happy to pay , if it's worth it that is and this was no different then what you find at a food truck. Kept having to search for the waiter for water. It took him 25 minutes but it finally occurred to him to bring a carafe ... and hopefully that the food was a little too salty since we ordered local ciders and still needed more water. By no stretch is it fine dining in the conventionally held sense but it's certainly elevated for the neighborhood. On that note, it was rather comical when the biker tatt'd hostess offered "outside dining" when it was not only a heat wave but it was clearly in a seedier part of town. I guess it's all relative to one's lived experience. Just not one I'd repeat. I wouldn't go out of your way to dine here unless you are inspired to spend your dollars in the community.

Claudine's is THE gem of Fredericton and consider yourself a lottery winner if you live within an hour. We came for lunch on a week day and if you are too, I strongly recommend taking their suggestion of a reservation. It was packed and we saw people pour in and subsequently disappointed. Once we took a bite, we tasted why. My husband got the seafood fettucine with lobster upgrade and I ordered the lobster benedict and they were both next level heavenly. All seafood used was at the peak of freshness and the flavors well balanced (referring to the pasta dish). It wasn't inexpensive even after converting back to US dollars but it was worth every penny. I noticed a lot of people lingering without ordering more which I thought was rude but maybe it's a cultural thing. Surprisingly, service was quick, the wait for entrees not bad considering how busy they were (lots of big parties) and the staff's passion for what they do is palpable. It may not be in the center of everything but I think not being in the tourist trap area is the ticket, do not miss this epicurean delight if you are visiting Fredericton!

Still trying to decide if I'm going to go back to ask for a refund. What a waste of money!

I ( and family) have enjoyed Deluxe Fish & Chips for a LOT of those years as well. We used to really enjoy going there, whether it be for dine in or takeout, and the product had been VERY good, infact, outstanding! Their restaurants were pretty much full a LOT of the time, while the products being served, and the resonable price charge was great. However, over time, they have gone to the usual "dark side", and have now fallen so LOW on my list of "restaurants" for fast food, I can't believe that it's the same great place it used to be. The past couple of times I've gone there to pick up and order of fish & chips, I wondered why there were no other customers in the restaurant, at around 6pm, on a Wednesday summer evening. The store I have been going to for a number of years, is located on Prospect Street in Fredericton NB. I believe that, probably, the reason IS, that they have shrunk the size of their cardboard plates considerably, and people are getting FAR less than what they used to, for FAR more money. This place is a "Fast-Food" restaurant, that's trying to, pretend, that it's a "fine dining" establishment, with the prices they charge compared to the portions they serve. Example?? For what they USED to serve, which was well cooked, and a reallly good sized portions of, which WAS a really great, 3 pieces of fish, on a large plate overflowing with fries, at a reasonable price, has now gone to 3 smaller pieces of fish, (a LOT of times WAY overcooked, in fact practically burnt for all intents and purposes), and because of the new, much smaller size of the "Large" plate, with a mediocre amount of fries. That wouldn't be so bad IF, the price for what you're receiving was any where NEAR what customers should be paying for what they are being charged!! This "New" size of a "Large" fish & chips, now costs you almost $22 plus dollars. I don't have to guess anymore, why there are no OTHER people at this place at 6pm on a Wednesday summer evening, with a hotel full of toursists right next door. I don't know how their restaurants are still surviving after all these years, but I CAN say that, in my humble opinion, if their quality of food doesn't go back to what it used to be, and they continue to charge these RIDICULOUS prices for what customers receive, they won't be able to continue to exist much longer. It's very hard for these kinds of places to continue to exist, without customers filling their restaurants! However, I can honestly say that I won't be darkening their doors again, until they go back serving great food at a "Reasonable" price!! Best of luck with that!!
