The meal was delicious. My husband had the steak sandwich and I had fish and chips. Great service and our dog Zoe was looked after with a bowl of water. Thank you

My wife and I stopped in for a fantastic lunch. She had their lobster roll with Caesar and I had the smoke salmon with homemade chowder. We were really impressed. The lobster roll was incredible. The lobster was fresh, had a kiss of the sea, and cooked perfectly. Definitely worth the price and stop in Charlottetown. The smoked salmon was delicious with the perfect mix of cream cheese, capers, red onion and tomatoes. Lastly their chowder was one of best I’ve had with lots of fresh fish, mussels and clams. WOW!

Great service, food was delicious, beautiful view, only complaint is that the oysters were tiny...maybe because we got the happy hour ones, but still...

My family and I (group of 7 adults) came here for our first dinner out during our stay in PEI on a Thursday around 7:30 pm. They don’t take reservations, so we went up and put our name on the list then walked around and checked out the stores while we waited. We waited about half an hour and it was well worth the wait! We had delicious fish and chips, lobster rolls and I had the fish tacos which were spicy and delicious! We received great service and even sat very close to the live entertainment who was very talented. Would highly recommend this spot for the food, views, and good live music

One of the best patios my wife and I have ever been on. Beautiful views of the harbor and the marina. Staff are super friendly and accommodating. We have never been disappointed by the food. We've docked at the marina a number of times with family and friends to enjoy the patio.

The fish and chips were very good. The fish was nice and thick. No scrimping here. Our server was amazing, she even tolerated my dad jokes. It would have been nice to have some live music, but overall, it was a great visit. Nice to see they stepped up their tartar sauce. See you soon.

While coming a week before the season opens on mind. The service was phenomenal. Great table touches, making you feel cared for and welcomed. The food was great and the beer was cold. A great Charlottetown institution indeed.
