Such an easy 5!!! Our 4-year-old was complaining about how dark it is inside the restaurant (coming from a not 4-year-old, it's not so bad) and our waitress very kindly brought a little lamp just for him. It made lunch go extra smoothly. Highly recommend the lobster and corn chowder. It was absolutely delectable. The fish cakes and lobster roll (chili lime - perfect amount of flavor and spice) were also delicious. The dressing on the side salad was notably delicious too. Would love to return some day!!

Servers were attentive and so nice. The patio is great and the food is delicious. It's very popular so if you are dining with more than two people, I suggest you make a reservation if you want to get a table without having to wait.

Bicycle Thief is right on the water, which was very nice (though parking can be challenging). The servers were friendly and helpful without being intrusive. They helped us navigate with some dietary restrictions. Our meals were delicious and thoughtfully prepared. We didn't get wine but their wine list looked pretty good though not extensive. Overall, this was a very good experience. Would definitely return.

Great food but tourist (high) prices and subpar (slow) service.

You'll are lucky you'll have arguably the best food in the city but the service was seriously lacking.. The server (an older brazilian gentleman) didnt care to ask if we were celebrating anything. I had a reservation earlier which we had to cancel due to our flight delay but we made it for dinner and he didnt even care to ask if we were celebrating anything or chat with us while he chatted with all the tables around us. We weren't offered the bread at the beginning while no other table was missed. The service at Water Polo was way better and elevated the whole experience for us.

We got their fishcake and salmon. It was my first time trying a fishcake and it was AMAZING! I really liked the vibe of this restaurant and the way the servers were so chill. The prices are on the higher side, which is not a surprise for this upscale place.
We only eat Halal and were very happy to be able to find options in this restaurant.

Recently moved to Canada and it’s hands down the best food I’ve had eating out since I’ve been here. Well seasoned and full of flavour, not bland like most other places. Ordered the rock shrimp tempura and it was so good and the portion was surprisingly big, can be shared for two persons if u order other sides like i did. Ordered the lobster sushi roll, sweet soy ribs and fried rice and everything was really delicious. Definitely going back soon. Definitely make reservations if u want a fire table because it’s very cold and the restaurant is packed and fire tables are in high demand. The drinks were also very good.

Always a positive experience. Food is amazing, wine is exceptional, service is above and beyond. It can get a little loud during busy times, but can be expected with its popularity.

Five star review goes almost to exclusively to Luis for the amazing service on the patio— calm and kind with urgency. Good food and amazing waterfront of the harbour. Would come back, especially for the service.
Delicious food, a bit loud for my liking but overall a really pleasant experience!
