Absolutely incredible place to eat at! From North Carolina (US) and was traveling. I love seafood...have eaten all of it...but not a lobster roll! The lobster roll was fantastic. Nice sweet lobster taste...didnt have too much sauce and other unnecessary things to hide the lobster taste. Price was very reasonable in my opinion.

My wife got the fish burger with poutine on top of fries. Such a nice flaky and light fish...batter was perfect! Not too heavy...just right. Damn im getting hungry just remembering it lol.

Anyways that poutine...needs to be bottled and served as a government mandate in ever home during Thanksgiving in the US! I dont know what the hell is in that stuff...but its amazing! Beer selection was good..they got some good local beers up there! I would highly highly recommend.

I also got a teaser salad...that was a keeper too man! Dressing was on point, fresh lettuce, had nice little bits of like Canadian bacon or some sort of small diced meat in it, I was skepticalat first...but it was really good. Cesar salads in US just usually dont come with meat...or I have never seen it before. Thats okay tho whatever meat they use works well. Its got a good taste to it. Nice touch of the lemon wedge to sprinkle on...also different from the US but I like it!

Server was very nice and fun to talk to and I believe the owner or manager was there as well and also very nice and informative.

Atmosphere was also very cool...felt warm (We went in the winter) and cozy. Bathrooms were also extremely clean. Yeah 5 out of 5...honestly I cant think of a single thing to complain about.

Fries were cold and the hamburger was charred and chewy. Disappointing.
Nachos were good.

First and last time visiting this place. Whoever the two guys (one behind the bar)were at the door that greated our group to seat us didn't seem to want us there. Very rude. We called ahead and were told they don't reserve tables, we would just have to show up. We had a group of about 20. They seemed annoyed we were there. It wasn't overly busy at all. We waited maybe 5 mins to get tables to accommodate our group. They wanted to group the bills by the table...first time I've ever been to any restaurant that wanted to bill the entire table together and wouldn't do individual bills. They said we would have to sit with the people who we were sharing a bill with.. so my son, who wanted to sit with his friends was told he had to sit with me.
It just made no sense what they were doing and they overcomplicated such a simple thing. From reading other reviews, I guess this is how they roll. They should be more welcoming to large groups instead of annoyed.
Once our waitress came over to take care of our group, it was fine. She was very polite, on the ball with our orders, promptly brought drinks and continued to check up on our tables. She also didn't mind doing up seperate bills and allowing the kids to sit at a different table together. She knew what she was doing and also commented about how polite our group of boys were.
The food was average... Glad we had a nice waitress after being greeted like that at the door. I won't be back. There are definitely other places in the area that are much more welcoming.

Good experience
Veggie burger and chicken sandwich both good
But the waiter better mention that fries are adds on, we order anyways, but any adds on must be mentioned ❗️

The menu has a good selection of choices, and something for everyone. The food met our expectations. The service was great! Very friendly wait staff, and the food came quickly.

Visited recently. The dark haired female server brought me the credit card machine to pay our tab. Noticed that the 20% was already selected 🤷‍♂️. She said 20% auto selected. I don’t think so.
