    Great meal. We had popcorn shrimp (excellent) oysters, and muscles. We also ordered the fish and chips, goat cheese salad, fish tacos and boiled dinner with corned beef. It was delicious. Service was excellent. Music was a little loud but very good.

    We ended up choosing to sit at the bar instead of a table, looked like the place to be! The bartender was awesome and despite being solo she managed to keep up a great level of service! We started with mussels (provincial) and the clam chowder, both were excellent. Had the halibut taco special for a main and it did not disappoint!! Great fresh fish, fresh toppings and some “out of the box” thinking! Thanks for a great night!

    Kiama our hostess and Devon our waitress were very kind to us. Our meal was good and our time with friends very memorable, and remember this that God proved he loves you by sending his son Jesus to die for your sins on the cross and if you believe in him you would not perish but have eternal life. John 3:16

    Em was a fabulous server. Food was delicious. Wines were good, not fantastic, but they grew on you. Fisherman’s Platter, fish and chips and lobster roll and clam strips were enjoyed by all. Overall a lovely evening.

    Needs seasoning for their fish. Otherwise it was good quality. Pollock isn’t a good fish choice.

    I was very excited to try this restaurant due to the reviews, the IG videos also because I love oysters. Once we arrived and they took us to our table and our server was horrible. We only saw her a total of 2 times, first time to take our order and to give us our check. I noticed that tables around us that had the same server were extremely frustrated due to the lack of attention. We ordered a Margherita pizza, 6 oysters and popcorn shrimp. The Margherita pizza was very greasy, the popcorn shrimp they brought out was literally 6 pieces and a bunch of popcorn under it. Finally, we had ordered a variety of oysters and no one explained to us what oyster was what. I left very disappointed with the experience and the food.
