Appetizer was good but main course was not. Ordered creamy Balsamic chicken with pasta and it appears they didn't have any cream available as it was only balsamic vinegar in the dish. Very burnt to the pont my mouth had ulcers the next day. If you don't have cream then the customer should be notified before serving. Not enjoyable when your main course is not prepared properly.

Happened upon Oliver’s as we worked our way around town….couldn’t be happier that we stopped in! The owner (Amanda) greeted us when we arrived. The place was beautifully decorated! She brought us two specialty plates….shrimp and scallops. To die for!!!!!! So good we re-orders both!!! Also recommend an amazing bottle of wine. Perfect night out! Thank you Amanda!

Great place to have lunch. I had the steak sandwich. The sandwhich was great but fries were under cooked and soggy. My wife had the salad with cooked chicken breast and according to her “amazing”…so the fries held back this review a little bit would definitely go back.

Originally my friend had wanted to try the cod tongue but they didn't have their shipment in for that yet that day...so we had the pan seared cod and the penne carbonara instead. Both dishes were really good (so i wasnt disappointed about the cod tongue issue). We were in a rush to catch a flight back home from St. John's and the waitress tried to get us the food quickly.

A MUST for anyone needing gluten-free options. With a dedicated gluten free deep fryer, we ordered GF seafood platter (with the best scallops and shrimp I've ever eaten in my life), GF fish and chips for my daughter (a huge piece of cod!), and started with GF deep fried calamari as well as an order of possibly the only GF crispy cod tongues in the province if not the country! With all of that plus a GF beer that I'd never tried before, Port Rexton Raspberry Sour (something that did not sound tempting but it was actually delicious, more beer-y than fruity), I'm surprised my family didn't have to roll me all the way home! STRONGLY recommended! ?? But make sure you call to make reservations... We got turned away the first time we tried to go. ?‍♂️

Dietary restrictions: Gluten free options are accommodated with a dedicated deep fryer. Staff was very knowledgeable, saying that almost everything on the menu except for seafood chowder was able to be prepared gluten-free.
