This is getting a one star for me. The server took 20 minutes to bring us 3 pops, place wasn’t even busy. Finally after being there about an hour we got our food. The spin dip was amazing but out of 3 main courses and 2 appetizers that was the only good thing on the table. The pop was almost flat, the calamari had maybe 10 pieces if squid in it, the rest was a big ball of pineapple, olives and tomatoes that we had to pick apart because they clearly never shook the basket as it was frying in oil. One Celtic burger got ordered without RED onion but instead both came out without red onion and one came out without onion rings on it(the whole reason we got the Celtic burger) the Patties were dryer than cardboard and burnt to a crisp. We didn’t even finish our burgers. The fries were dry. My friend that ordered the Alfredo said it was gross as well. No point complaining about it as there was clearly a language barrier with the server. We will not be back. Me and my partner paid 100 bucks to go home and cook food and our friend paid around 50 bucks and before taking her home she stopped for food. How this place has a 4 star rating is beyond me. And to charge so much money for food I wouldn’t even give my dog is ridiculous.

Waited for about an hour for lunch, was told the kitchen was backed up - Ok, No big deal. It happens.Ordered a sandwich and fries. I ended up leaving after having one glass of water over that time.As I walked out, the same server said the food was being prepared. I had not seen this server up until this point. Other than when I initially sat down and she took my order.This was at lunchtime, no one else in the restaurant was waiting on food as far as I could tell. Two other tables including mine were waiting on orders for the same amount of time.Get it together guys, hire more staff. Heavy smell of cigarettes blowing past my table. Was extremely unpleasant, thankfully it went away.Not a good look.

Traditional atmosphere and food!The food is delicious, but the large amount of sweet potatoes that come with this traditional dish attacks my stomach. The cod tongue is very good. price? It's not cheap.

Went here while in St John's for dinner and drinks. I was with 4 other people. The lady serving us was friendly and knowledgeable. The drinks were good and the food was decent. The location is nice and the service was prompt. I definitely recommend this place.

Having a decent all hours resto in a place like at John's is a god send. There when you need it and always welcoming. 00

I will NEVER shut up about how good the food was. I could have cried out of joy because of how tasty everything was… of course I was gonna go out of my way to leave the most genuine review ever. I had a short trip here and one evening to choose a restaurant to eat at and this one did not disappoint. I would come back here without hesitation. Service and ambiance were as good as the cuisine was.Here’s what I ordered/tasted; Tuna tartare so tasty and SO FRESH, Celtic burger and Moose burger were crazy good. Excellent meat and flavors!I was unfortunately too full to get that chocolate decadent I wanted, but I’m not even sad because of how satisfied I was with everything.6 stars out of 5!!!!!!

I loved the coziness of the place. It felt warm and homely. We had breakfast, which was moderate and delicious. The atmosphere made for great and intimate conversations.

Stopped by today with my partner and it was fantastic. Our server was super nice and very attentive.The food was fantastic, and we opted for a local beer. Partner had the Jiggs Pie and loved it, it was a huge portion and it was very tasty (snuck a bit) I had one of the sandwiches which was also fantastic (though I ate it before I got a pic LOL).If we end up moving here we will certainly go back!
