Probably one of the best restaurant in Newfoundland and in Canada. The mood of the place is really relaxing. Drinks, starters, meals and desserts are all great. The staff takes the time to explain each meal. We can feel their passion! It looks like nothing from the outside but it is totally worth a try. Can be expensive or not depending of your appetite. Strongly recommending the discovery menu.
This place was incredible!Cute, cozy and delicious! I had the cod eggs benny - yum! Mimosas ere delicious and the cake table is a must. Our server Barry was also super friendly! High recommend this place for brunch.
I made a reservation months in advance, highly anticipating a great dining experience and walked away quite perplexed. I agree with the other comments about the wait staff professionalism and service. I definitely see a trend in the reviews, it's as though we aren't reviewing the same restaurant! Some days they're on it, other days not. I was rushed right from the moment I sat down - from ordering a cocktail to ordering food, it was rushed and I wanted to enjoy my time. I asked for a glass of wine which came out already poured, I wasn't able to taste it first or view the bottle. I ordered the turbot which was not filleted, no fish knife nor warning of the bones and bland. The turbot was served with chickpeas and dukkah which isn't keeping with the local theme and seemed out of place. I had the zucchini, lemon and almond salad which was exactly as described, nothing above and beyond what I could have done at home. The waiter recommended a chef's choice dessert and he shouldn't have since I was dining alone and it's portioned for 2-3 people. I was in and out within 1 hour. Todd Perrin, please check in with the consistency of your restaurant. I've been to the top rated restaurants in the world and all over Canada, something was amiss tonight...
can't comment on the restaurant inside -- we happened to stumble upon the backyard hipster spot in the outdoor section. there were people tossing beanbags, and hanging out on the sunny patio. really cute setup where we buy these tokens for $5 each. for example, a beer is like one token. a cod sandwich is like 2 tokens.and it was an extremely tasty cod salad sandwich at that! extremely great place to have snack and enjoy a backyard bbq type atmosphere. awesome experience, highly recommended!
I've come back here over the years with my family, and we always feel so special. The food and service and live music (if you go on the right night) make for a memorable night. Highly recommend for some Newfoundland goodness. The atmosphere is very cozy, and the food very local, but don't let that fool you, this place is gourmet. The waitstaff were very knowledgeable, down to where everything on the menu was caught, shot or harvested. We actually let our waiter basically order for us and were not at all disappointed with his choices. If you really can't pick they do family-style as well. If you have the time arrive early and have a seat at the bar. The selection of local brews was balanced and well thought out and I found myself constantly trying to get a peek inside the vintage refrigerator behind the bar to see what kinds of concoctions the tender was expertly mixing drinks with.
