Incredibly fresh, flavorful dishes! The sandwiches are hot and crispy with melty cheese. The service is very friendly, adding to the light, positive ambiance of the bistro. I can't wait to try the entire menu!

Staff are always pleasant and the food is always great. A favorite spot to eat.

It was like a flavor party in my mouth! Those stuffed mushrooms, they were so good, and the potatoes, man, they were crispy on the outside and all soft and garlicky on the inside. And the veggies, they added this pop of color and freshness. Seriously, it's like a full meal that leaves you wanting more. If you're ever at that restaurant, you gotta try it!

We had the seafood bake special and it was amazing. Veggie spring rolls tossed in a maple curry sauce for an app and they were also really good. The other plates on the table looked amazing as well. Staff are very friendly and attentive.My reason for only 4 stars was the comfort level of the booth. I was very uncomfortable with the seat and my back hurt by the end of my meal. My advice is to grab a table and enjoy the food!

What an awesome surprise to find this bistro while sea glass hunting. I got the luncheon special and it was fantastic. I need the recipe for the fresh tomato soup. Waitress was very attentive and fun to talk with. The price was very reasonable considering what it would’ve cost me in my home area of Toronto. Will definitely be going back

It's a good place to eat before the ship leaves. Not cheap and make sure you have local currency or you will be paying more than you thought. Good beer

The food was okay. Nothing special to me. Mussels where slightly overcooked but tasted well. The. Urry pasta was not what we expected it to be. It was just okay food.

Cinq étoiles ce n’est pas exagéré. Parfait petit Bistro, très sympathique. Le menu est court mais il y en a pour tous les goûts. Tout était délicieux, goûteux, équilibré. Le service mérite 10 étoiles, on se sent bienvenus et choyés. Notre serveuse était une professionnelle de la restauration, prévenante et souriante, elle ne semblait pas travailler, juste nous recevoir. J’y reviendrai!

Waiting to board the ferry to Newfoundland and this place was great for lunch. I had the lunch special of tomato soup, half chicken sandwich, and salad with their homemade maple balsamic vinaigrette for $14. Everything was yummy. They only provided a tiny container of dressing. I asked for more dressing and they charged another $1. This is the only negative. I only had water. With taxes, it was $17.25. They only take cash now. No credit cards.

This was one place that I have been waiting to try... After hearing a lot about their dinner pastas, finally we visited this one yesterday night. Nice ambience and very friendly staffs. I give a 5 star for everything about this place...We ordered the Chipotle Pasta and the Bacon wrapped Scallop Carbonara... The orders came real quick. Both were really creamy and delicious. For those who prefer more of spice, go for the Chipotle as the Carbonara have a slight hint of sweetness to it. And what can I say... loved it... My son loved the food so much that he didnt even wanted to finish it then, rather pack some of it so he could relax and relish it more at home.. lol!Just remember to go there with cash as they don't accept credit/debit cards. That could be a bummer if you do not have the habit of walking around with cash (though atms are right nearby)..Also posting some sandwich we had from there for lunch; though i am not that highly impressed with the sandwich - would still keep the 5 stars for th3m..

We felt rushed. We advised the waitress that we wanted to drink our wine and we would order our main meal once the appetizers arrived. We asked if that was okay and she said sure. Unfortunately we had to say it at least 3 times as she returned repeatedly to the table. Finally she said "we're a small restaurant and we like to keep things moving. "

Food and service were fantastic. Perfectly priced. The noise level was so loud I couldn't talk to my friend across the table. Please work on the acoustics.
