Not a good experience at all. I ordered strip loin steak…read more BNo baked potato. Half the plate was taken up by a swirl of sweet potato which I did not order. The presentation tried to be artsy but failed miserably. Too much grizzle and fat on the steak. When I did eat a steak only piece it was good. But not med rare. Closer to blue. I ordered a lemonade. When the waitress served my steak she did not notice my empty glass and I had to ask another waiter to bring a refill. For the rating this restaurant had on Yelp, it was totally undeserved.

I thought I made that clear to the waiter, but there was seasoning on the burger, which disguised the flavor of the meat.- the seasoning was all I tasted. I managed to eat about 1/2 of the burger. The fries were good. The waiter offered to have the burger remade, but I declined his offer. He did give me a free dessert.

Seemed slightly burned, even though the squid was perfect (not rubbery). The seafood chowder was very hearty and good. Probably the best of the choices we made. We were happy with that one. Service was very friendly, but we didn't see her very often. Fortunately, we didn't need much extra.

She gave me time to read the menu, took my order, placed it correctly, and checked back with me. The atmosphere and love music was very nice and enjoyable. Those are the 2 pluses. The food is a different story. I ordered the 5 oz New York steak, which came with mashed potatoes and carrots. The cook on the steak was perfect and the taste was very good, but it had a lot of gristle. I'd say 1/4 of the steak was inedible. The potatoes were pretty tasteless, dry, and needed a lot of salt, but there were plenty of them. There were maybe 5-6 half carrots. They were also pretty flavorless. I'm not Canadian so maybe that is what Canadians prefer: grisly meal and tasteless vegetables.

There is ample parking across the motel looking building. Once you enter, there is a lovely shop of trinkets and then there is a nice cozy seating area. There's a self serve sauce bar and some cute puzzles to occupy you while you. wait for your food. You can get a lunch special which comea with a drink or you can order dim sum ala carte. The staff are so lovely and were fast in service. The food itself was served hot and fresh. It wasn't overly salty and the peach drink was ice cold, perfect on a hot day. I noticed they have a buffet option on Saturdays too which is super unique. We'd love to visit again if we pass by Sydney in the future!

Went there to try their new Chili Oil they are selling. Its quite expensive, its nice and hot but…read morenot much flavor, with a sort of an off-taste. We ordered two Chicken Feet, (they forgot the second order which was supposed to be To-Go.) The Chicken Feet were undercooked and not tender at all. We also ordered Har Gow which was Delicious -five stars for that and a Wonton Soup. The Wonton Soup was bland. It did not include the obligatory veggies or cabbage and no slice of Roast Pork and the Pork Dumplings were very overcooked and falling apart. Would not order it again. So its hit or miss at this place - but its the only Dim Sum on the Island...

The food here was okay but service was terrible. Overall, it's a 2.5 star experience rounded up. Our waitress didn't show up a long time after we were seated and after we ordered our food, she never showed up and we asked other waitress to grab her. However, the other waitress just impatiently told us our server was coming but she didn't even bother grabbing our server. Our waitress only showed up again after we finished our meal and paying the bill. Terrible service provided by this restaurant! Food was 4-star quality. We ordered chicken wings which was delicious, grilled salmon was very dry, lobster sandwich was with decent portion and very tasty and went well with the butter grilled bread. The chicken supreme we ordered was cooked well (not dry). Overall, I wouldn't recommend this restaurant to anyone because of the terrible service. The food itself is not worth the terrible service.

The food here is decent - chicken wings were flavourful and the chicken supreme was juicy. Blueberries complemented the salmon well. Service however was horrible. First, they didn't really have proper seating for 5, so my group was a little cramped on a table designed for 4. Our server was usually nowhere to be found. At the end of the meal she told us she's new and still learning the ropes. While that's excusable, the service level from all the other staff was not. We've flagged down at least 2 other staff looking for our server, and while they just acknowledge and say "your server will be right with you", they DID NOT ACTUALLY GO GET HER. That's simply unacceptable.. Given the poor service I would not recommend this restaurant if you're looking for a relaxing dining experience.
