If you read their website former dairy farmers turned lobster restaurant cooks on weekends. The location did not have live music on Sunday. You get the funny bib if you want and the lobster meal for $44 with mussels and unlimited salad and rolls or $39 without the mussels but unlimited salad and rolls. The lobster was rather corny in taste, they were not over cooked and pretty nice. The mussels they tasted like the standard grocery store ones- apparently from farmed source. The waiters and waitresses frequently visited to check on us and empty out buckets. The meal also came with two dessert options and self serve coffee/tea. The experience- was nice but pricey and a bit touristy. It was sadden that the unlimited salad bar actually lacked green salad or spinach- which I was sort of craving. They generally had a selection of mayonnaise based salads- look at my photo. But some selection- but I didn't see anything fun like crab salad. The machine auto request for 15% tip, so if you're not a fan of being told what to tip be sure to manually adjust it. Washroom is located in the main floor and the lower floor. Water was self serve- which I thought was odd since the servers were visiting frequently already.

For our lunch spot, we chose Tom's Lobster Shack, based upon reviews we had read. Man oh man! What a find! Don't let the 31$ price for one lobster roll stop you from making the leap. If you don't, believe me you will cheat yourself from enjoying one of the most decadent treatments of locally caught fresh lobster ever. Think about the movie "What About Bob" in the scene where Dr. Leo Marvin (Richard Dreyfuss) finds himself hosting one of his patients, Bob (Bill Murray) who has invited himself for dinner: The oohs, ahhs, yummy, this is soooo good, Gnom Gnom Gnom, litany uttered by Bob as he devours his food with appreciation and gusto is kind of what escaped my lips as I savored the best lobster roll ever ... even superior to those served in Maine. Score another point for Canada. It was so tasty, I thought I heard a strain of the refrain from "Oh Canada" in the background. The only downside was that it was unseasonably hot and there were not enough shaded tables to accommodate everyone, but Tom doesn't control the weather. This is definitely worth the drive if you find yourself in Halifax (only 1 hour). And there's free parking,

The "room", as expected, is sunny and bright, tasteful decorated to reflect a beachy, ocean breeze vibe. The patio is enveloped by a row of umbrellas, making it an intimate space and extending its usability in Nova Scotia's unpredictable weather. Prices are on the higher end for the area but reasonable for fine dining. That of course, assumes the food is worthy of the prices. And here the Sunroom definitely delivers! We started by sharing the flatbread and carpaccio. Both nice servings and delicious. Our table had the halibut, scallops, and lobster pappardelle as mains. My halibut was beautifully presented, perfectly cooked fish with summer vegetables an a small patty of sweet rice. The lobster was also delicious but I think the star of the night was the scallops. Perfectly seared to a golden brown, I watch several orders go by, sadly making me regret my order just a little. And a big thumps up for offering so many gluten-free, dairy-free, vegan options. It's nice to see restaurants thinking about those with restricted diets and in many cases it has no impact on the dish. I finished with the vegan pavlova, which was a tad over cooked but quite nice. Service is very friendly and attentive, but not quite up to the level of knowledge and awareness of experienced 5-star wait staff. The industry is struggling to find people, the venue is new, and Chester isn't exactly urban-central, so I'll cut them some slack here. However, it will come, as will the five star ratings. A must for Chester visitors looking for a fine dining experience.
