Great view, selection and service as always! One of the best places in Richmond to get fresh oysters.

Amazing location with a great view of the wharf. Outdoor patio was very big and clean. Service staff were very good. The Nepresso Martini was awesome and fresh oysters were good. The salmon salad was tasty but I would pass on the fish and chips (cod) - too much batter and the tartar sauce tasted like ranch. Overall, great patio experience for drinks and appies.

This restaurant has great food. I ordered braised octopus carpaccio and cioppino. Both dishes were excellent. The octopus carpaccio had a pleasant smokiness that perfectly complemented the leafy vegetables and green apple slices (who knew?) The octopus ink tuile on top was a beautiful touch. The cioppino was also very fresh and full of flavour. Garlic bread was the star of the dish, pairing excellently with the tomato sauce and mussels. Despite being on the small side, the food definitely expanded my horizons in terms of deliciousness. The waterfront view is amazing, but unfortunately the window is dirty. Service could be better; my water was not refilled despite the waiters passing by my table several times.

What a great time we had here. This is the perfect place for a date or special occasion with stellar service and absolutely delectable food. We ordered the 2-tier seafood platter and our server recommended the perfect wine to pair it with. She was so personable and knew when to come at just the right times to top up our wines, check in with food quality and to settle the bill. We loved every moment of our time here and will definitely be back.

Our server Mackenzie went above and beyond to make sure we had the most special birthday dinner and dessert for our friend! We are so grateful for such a lovely night on the patio with the sunset view.

It was a quiet evening. We sat on the patio. I had the chef's burger which was very good, and hubby had a salad which he quite enjoyed. Can't wait until the patio is warm and open!!
My salmon tasted very good. However, it was served lukewarm, and when I asked for it to be heated, our waitress took it away and brought it back five minutes later, lukewarm. Then she seemed to forget about us. The view is lovely.

Enjoyed the covered outdoor patio, beautiful view. It was pleasantly warm and blankets were supplied if needed. Food was great and timing from arrival to departure was leisurely which suited our evening outing.

We came on a weekend afternoon to check out their dineout ($45) menu. Service was a bit slow when we walked in as we waited to be seated. We opted for the outdoor seating which was a great choice because it was covered and heated! It overlooked the water and pier (which was quite mucky). We ordered the coconut mussels to share and the dineout menu (pan seared scallops, shrimp pasta, seafood bouillabaisse, chocolate cake, and panne cotta). Aside from the initial wait upon arrival, our server was attentive and friendly. She checked up on us and our water was topped up. Food is decent, but nothing spectacular. I liked that the coconut mussels had a slight hint of coconut. The flavour wasn't overpowering nor was the sauce too sweet, which can happen to some coconut-based dishes. The pan seared scallops were good. They were cooked properly and the salad on top was refreshing with a hint of acid. I love arugula and the addition of that added a note of pleasant bitter contrast. The shrimp pasta was quite cheesy but a little dry. I personally prefer saucier pastas. The seafood bouillabaisse lacked the strong saffron depth one would expect. I tasted a lot of orange/citrus flavour and would prefer a richer "bodier" broth. The chocolate cake was fairly sweet; perfect for those with a sweet tooth! The panna cotta was surprisingly delicious. I'm not a fan of panna cottas, but this one topped with the mixed berries was the perfect mix of tart and sweetness. The texture was a bit soft though. Overall, this is a nice local restaurant to visit for a beer or a lunch after a stroll in Steveston. Our bill was about $140 for 2 people, which isn't bad, but I personally think there are better options around for that price.

We had a lovely evening with great service and appreciated not being rushed at all. The Louisiana Clam Bake is not something I would order again but the rest of the food was decent.

Avoid at all cost. 3 of us got super sick ? with vomiting and the runs after eating their seafood and soup.Service is alright but cooks and chefs should retire and never touch food again.
