It was a bright and sunny August afternoon and we had finished perusing the butterfly garden up the…read morehill. We strolled down through the beautiful gardens to the restaurant perched on the riverbanks. The restaurant does not optimize for volume or turnover and we had a 45 minute wait. We enjoyed the adjoining shop and their selection of jams and spread. The wait was worth it! The room is a bright large room overlooking the river. Handmade quilts hang from the ceiling. We started with nachos, that had the right blend of cheese and toppings. Unfortunately there were no side plates brought, causing us to eat like animals from a common trough. A slight mishap with a spilled glass of water interrupted our otherwise pleasant appetizer. The server's attention was less than prompt causing us to get extra napkins from directly behind the counter. Still, we soldiered on and prepared for the main feast. The seafood chowder was one of the better ones all trip. Fresh and flavourful pieces in a cream broth, served with a fresh side biscuit. The real opportunity is to highlight the delicious jams and spreads from the shop which would add some much needed flavour to the biscuits. Other meals included kids pasta, kids jam sandwich, a club sandwich, fish cakes and a Caesar salad. All were promptly devoured. A great location with fresh food and pleasant service. Worth the wait!

We tried their sliced white bread, dinner rolls, and sub bread. All were fresh and soft. Their cinnamon rolls were a little dry but were good when microwaved. Their chocolate macaroons were not macaroons but no bake balls with chocolate and coconut. Their cookies are divine. We especially loved the oatmeal raisin and their ginger snaps! We also really enjoyed their subs. They have ample meat and offer a lot of toppings. They also have homemade pizza and other hot dishes like lasagna. They also have a refrigerated area with prepared meals for purchase. The establishment is debit or cash only and US debit cards will not work. There is ample parking.

We quenched our thirst with a taste of the Island in the form of sparking Apple beverages. We started with a bruschetta, which had hearty toppings and a drizzle of balsamic. Four fresh pies arrived and we moved onto the main event. The pizza was very thin crust done in a wood oven. The toppings were flavourful and transported us back to Italia! If there is an area for improvement it is in the distribution of the toppings. They were unevenly distributed which resulted in some of our party not getting their fair share of the delicious toppings. The service was bright and cheerful, much like the lighting in the restaurant. Our server had an upbeat demeanour, which matched the tempo of the music. A wonderful evening out and we would return!
