    I've been here many times and would have said this was at least a 4-star... but my last trip was terrible! I do NOT complain about food but on this occasion the fish was so dry that it, quite literally, could not be eaten. The best they would do was take 15% off my tab... and I had guests with me. It will be a while before I take anyone there with me again. They will have to earn my trust first...

    Seafood fettuccine. Blue mussels, scallops and big shrimp.

    The service is gruff, all tho you make a reservation they tell you to sit anywhere, no one was there to receive my friends and I, and We did make reservation; the waitress we had was absolutely gentle and nice to take our order, the cost was fair for the presentation, the atmosphere is good. The seafood fettuccine I had, was tasty. Would recommend it ! Maybe it's just the lack of caring for customers from the staff that makes the place less appealing to return.

    Love the setting of this restaurant come boutique hotel. It's situated just off the main drag which is nice as it gets away from the hustle and bustle (what there is) of the main downtown street! Sitting outside does allow for some people watching which is always good fun. The menu is a simple one which covers the basic food groups, so I am not suggesting that you come here for Michelin quality food but more so for the ambiance and the quality of the service. The staff were all attentive but allowed you to get on with your own thing, which I always prefer. As I said the food does the job and hit the spot. I think what took me with this place is that it was away from the other eateries and offered a different vibe. Dining inside was another experience as it was quite dark inside but once my eyes adjusted I was fine. They have some unusual art work on the walls so i am not quite sure what theme they are going for but all in all it did not really bother me. Service was quick, although it was not very busy. They have a good selection of drinks behind the bar was extensive. They had a couple of groups in but even then the noise was not intrusive. All in all I would come back here, might even try a room for a night as they look very good from what I could see.

    Perfect Pub!

    Wow!!! Around $15 USD for clams! I've seen places charge around $30 for the same amount of clams!…read moreVisiting from the states. Just coming back from the Bay of Fundy and was passing by. Came around 3pm. Not a single customer there. But the place looked pretty clean. They have clams, scallops, shrimp, chicken, lobster rolls, cheeseburger, chicken fingers, and poutine. I noticed they also have a new butter chicken dish along with flavors of crispy chicken flavored with different sauces. There's plenty of parking in a very large shopping center where they're located. The place didn't smell at all, which is good since it's a seafood place. They have a gender neutral bathroom. They do Uber Eats & Grubhub. They speak Mandarin Chinese. They must fry them fresh after breading them. I heard them fry my clams about 5 minuets after I ordered, and they fried them for about 2 minutes. I asked for a cup of water and they gave me a small cup of water. They're clams were good it included clam strips and bellies. It was very lightly battered, and not greasy! The clams were also not chewy at all. I don't think their business is doing very well. They have a big sign in their window that says "business for sale" and there's real estate papers advertising the property for sale. I was so full after eating the clams. I think they gave me about a pound of clams. There's only about 4 tables inside that sit about 3-4 people. I think they're mostly a take-out spot.

    My teenaged son and I ate here on the way through from Ontario to PEI. I had the clam plate, which…read morecame with fries and coleslaw. Fries and coleslaw were very good. The clams were pretty good but I think they could have been cooked a touch longer. They weren't undercooked, the batter was just pale looking. I'd rather that than overcooked though. My son wrote this paragraph: The chicken 3 piece is good for on-the-bone chicken, it's cooked perfectly, nice and juicy, but the skin is much too greasy for my taste. (This coming from a guy who loves KFC and McDonalds...) We also had a sugar doughnut each. They were perfect and tasted like homemade. I'd go back just for the doughnuts! We had our order to go so I can't really comment too much on the restaurant. There were a few seats, looked clean.
