On a very rainy day, my friend and I went to the Alma Lobster Shop. Not only do they sell lobster…read moreand other seafood fresh, cooked, but they also have a sit down restaurant. My friend ordered their lobster roll dinner. The roll had a lot of lobster pieces and wasn't heavy on the mayonnaise. My friend ordered another one for dinner but as take out, and the order came very quickly. I decided to order their lobster dinner. They provide the tools for you, and the servers will always provide suggestions on ways to get to the lobster meat easily. They also have a mural on their wall with instructions on how to eat a whole lobster. Thr lobster was really good and it was very fresh. Definitely come back here for more lobster and lobster rolls.

Good food. Awful service…read more The good: Lobster Roll had good fresh meat. Fried clams were well prepared. The bad: sat at a table and waited more than 10min for a server. Eventually flagged one down and ordered. Waited over 40 minutes for our order. During the wait we watched them seat, take the orders, bring the food out, and take the payment from several patrons. Waited an equally absurd amount of time to pay. Do yourself a favor order to go.

We placed our order at 445pm and 3 family's came in after us and all got there food within a 30 min time period, asks left. We had 8 in our party, and the other family's had between 4 and 7 ppl. They all got to eat before us and we complained twice that we were waiting.... it was 610pm before we got our food. My great grand daughter got her food early because she is 6yrs old and kids are impatient.... we received our food 45 min after her.... so then she had to wait again... we had very expensive items of the menu. Steak n fries and veggies, and to top it off there was a blond hair in my son's veggies, with his steak. 3 others got the seafood platters and the fish was soggy inside. Some scallops were still raw and cold on the inside. And not too mention how many ppl were staring at us. Almost like they've nerve seen Indians before... our bill was 200$ I'm so not impressed. And we will never be back!!

So we took a detour and decided to visit Cape Enrage. Tho we are locals, we have never been here…read morebefore and had no idea there was a restaurant here. We arrived just at the last sitting and tho we hadn't planned to eat there, it was highly recommended by a worker named Cindy. She assured us we would be very happy and told us they had a chef from Poland. We chose the things that were recommended and we were not disappointed at all. We had Lobster poutine, which is nothing like the traditional NB poutines. It was fries, cheese curds under a white creamy cheese sauce and a secret salsa sauce drizzled over lots of fresh chopped lobster. We also ordered the lobster croissant. It came with fries and a salad with a delicious unique sweet vinegar dressing. The croissant was flaky and buttery and so full of lobster you could hardly keep it together. There was enough dressing to be moist but not enough to overpower the lobster flavour. Again excellent! The polish apple pie came highly recommended, so we tried that also. It was definitely different than our typical NB apple pie, but equally as delicious. The presentation was tops!!! The server Kim, did an amazing job and was very kind to answer all our questions. Definitely a place to return to, and would love to bring friends here. It's been awhile since I dined at a restaurant that I came away completely satisfied in service, taste, quality, quantity!

It's not often I feel 5 stars are justified, but we go to the Wild Caraway yearly and we've never…read morebeen anything but thrilled with the experience. The Wild Caraway is a 4.5 hour drive from where we live now, but when we decided to take a day off this summer and do something fun, that was our obvious road trip destination. On a good weather day the drive between Glenholme and Advocate Harbour is beautiful, and a walk on the beach near Advocate or a hike at Cape Chignecto works up a decent appetite. We landed at the Wild Caraway around 3, in time to catch the lunch menu but a little early for dinner. The restaurant resides in an old farmhouse, refinished taking the history of the placed into account, but painted beautifully funky colours and decorated with creatively placed vintage items - calendars from the 1940s, a frozen meat saw box, likely from the 50's, and vintage beer mugs from a world of interesting events and places. Original artwork hangs around the dining areas and there ar teo rooms for rent upstairs in case the menu of delicious Nova Scotia brews gets the best of you. The Wild Caraway's menu is a little on the short side, but it revolves completely around locally produced meats and in-season vegetables, and as farmers we believe that's something a lot more restaurants should be taking into consideration. The dinner menu actually changes week to week. Troy chose the pasta of the day, fusilli with halibut and fresh veggies tossed with garlic and olive oil. I had the meatloaf burger with fries. When the plates arrived neither portion looked overwhelmingly huge, but the fact that Troy finished without room for dessert, and I left a few fries on my plate is a true indication of how filling it really was. The meal started with fresh baked biscuits, peppered with dulse. Simply delicious. I am not a fan of meatloaf, so I'd hummed and hawed befor ordering, but the burger was absolutely amazing. The grilled pork meatloaf patty was lightly spiced and wrapped in a slice of Oulton's bacon, The toppings were simple - a smoked mayonnaise with lettuce and tomato, but the flavour...oh my! Even when I got to the point where I didn't think another bite was possible I just couldn't let that burger go. It pained me to have to leave a few fries behind, because they were perfectly crispy and as ungreasy as any fry has ever been, but I just wasn't willing to send a bite of that burger back. Troy's pasta looked simple enough, but the garlicky drssing announced its presence long before it hit the table. We are both huge fans. The pasta was delicious, the veggies were beautifully done, and the halibut was cooked perfectly. Sometimes the simplest dishes are the real masterpieces. The Wild Caraway has perfected that perfect balance of fine dining and casual comfort. You can go there in jeans and a t-shirt, you can dress up a little for a special date. The food is consistent and as good as anything I've eaten in this province. The commitment to using Nova Scotian ingredients makes the menu incredible and creative, and the staff know how to make you feel at home from the second you walk through the door. Advocate Harbour is a beautiful feast for the eyes. Top it off with a visit to the Wild Caraway and you'll have a road trip second to none no matter where you're from.

I had occasion to eat there during my recent visit to Nova Scotia. There four of us, we went for clams fried fish and scallops all accompanied by delicious hand cut french fries. Everybody was a happy camper. Our server was delightful, with a ready smile and a sense of humor. The owner stopped at our table to ask if we were enjoying our meals with such warmth and a welcoming smile I knew I'd be back here to eat again. But putting the food aside we ate outside watching a beautiful sunset and a misty evening and then walked off some of our French fries off by a stroll down the beach to watch the eagles fishing by the stream. There were even a couple of loons making their eerie call out on the bay.
