Came back for dinner last week with the NS family and had a wonderful meal. We were seated inside, as it was a bit chilly, but walked outside after dinner to take pictures on the back deck with the most wonderful views!! I was with a large group, we brought wine with us and wine glasses were brought to the table immediately, along with ice water and warm rolls. I ordered the haddock, those around me went with scallops, mussels and seafood chowder and everything was fresh and delicious. My only suggestion is with the vegetable side, which appears to always be peas and carrots...I guess I would check in with the customer on that when ordering. I had no idea that peas and carrots were automatic, I don't eat cooked carrots, and they could have been saved for another customer. Dessert was a BIG hit with the group. Three ordered GIGANTIC slices of coconut cream pie and one, a most perfect slice of strawberry rhubarb with cold house made vanilla ice cream slowly melting on the top. Overall, a lovely night. A comfortable restaurant, where you can dress up if you wish, or not, with extremely fresh seafood prepared excellently. read more

The food was great! If you want Fricot or Rappie, go early! Great reviews on the food all around! The seafood chowder was excellent! The salads were all great! We enjoyed the fishcakes and the seafood lasagna was great too! Wonderful view and thank you to our server, as we were a large group! read more

Halfway up the Evangeline trail, between Yarmouth and Annapolis Royal, in the heart of Acadian country, we came across this gem. The curb appeal pulled us in, and the ambiance kept us. Picture a kitchen table overlooking the Atlantic Coast. Our server couldn't have been nicer: she even suggested I try a sample of rappie pie before ordering (hint: rappie pie is an acquired taste). Service was remarkably quick especially give the freshness and quality. Magnifique ! read more

My parents and I were visiting Nova Scotia for the first time and were told to get some authentic Acadian food, which we've never tried. We ordered a whole bunch of appetizers because we wanted to try everything and it was the perfect amount for the three of us. When ordering the Rabbie Pie, the waitress offered to have us taste a small portion for $2 since some people are bothered by the texture if they've never had it before. We're Japanese and we love gooey textures so we ordered it without trying and we thought it was great! It is more like a glob than a pie in terms of form. I loved both the flavor and the texture. If you want to try this, I recommend getting one and sharing; eating just the Rabbie Pie as my whole lunch probably would've been repetitive and overwhelming. If you're visiting and know absolutely nothing like we did, I highly recommend ordering a whole bunch and sharing. The waitress was friendly and the views on the outdoor patio are gorgeous. Also dog friendly on the patio! read more

The food is incredible and the service is so friendly and personable. Highly recommend the seafood lasagna and haddock and lobster sauce !

Service great. Ambiance great. Food amazing. If you're driving through you must try. Delicious homestyle seafood is exactly what you get.

What is not to like from the Escargot to delicious large homemade dessert. This is by far the best place we have gone to in the maritimes. Great Acadian dishes read more

We had the pleasure of dinning here yesterday celebrating our wedding anniversary! My wife at the lobster club with a Caesar salad, and I had the fracot to start and then had the haddock and scallop dinner. It was absolutely amazing the service was spot on and the food I just can't stop talking about. Would absolutely recommend this to anyone coming through the area or even any local looking for a nice dinner a real home-cooked food. read more

The BEST seafood we've eaten. The whole dining experience was down right great. The FOOD is the star here along with the friendly staff. Don't pass it by. read more

I love this restaurant! We have been coming here over the past year and a half every time we the area because it is so consistently good (we've been visiting frequently as we were looking to move to the area). The seafood chowder is the best I've had, with large chunks of scallops and fish that are cooked perfectly. My boyfriend always gets the fish cakes - they are crispy and hearty. The bacon wrapped scallops are another fave. I often can't resist grabbing some chocolate or coconut pie, which are always served in ginormous slices. The atmosphere has a cozy home feel to it, with a great view of the bay. read more

Awesome place and great food. Servers and staff are very friendly .. everything I've had so far has been unbelievable !

Best meal of my entire two weeks in the maritimes! We came at lunch and it wasn't too busy but otherwise it's wise to make a reservation. We heard staff talking about how they've had to turn people away! The restaurant is set up with a view overlooking the water. I love how it's got various rooms so you can different vantage points and views. Our meals: - Bacon wrapped scallops. Delicious and cooked perfectly. Can't go wrong with bacon wrapped anything. - Rappie pie. We have been curious to try this since we kept hearing about it. Our server warned us that 80% of people don't like it when they try it so they offer a $1.95 small taster. We tried it and both liked it. It has a very thick consistency, kind of a cross between a very thick tapioca or custard. It also reminded me a bit of congee. You have an option for clam or chicken. We had the clam taster but ordered the chicken as the clams tasted a bit too tough. - Haddock with hot creamed lobster. I was tempted by the lasagna but our server said it was yesterday's batch so wasn't freshly made, but still good. I decided on this dish since she said it was only of the more popular ones. So glad I did. The creamed lobster was delicious and paired so nicely with the Haddock. 5 stars all the way! - Coconut cream pie. Oh this pie. It was the best damn pie. If I'm ever on death row, I'm asking for this pie. It's a huge serving, but I implore you -- DO NOT SHARE IT. You can thank me later. read more

This is a lovely restaurant with an expansive view of the water, and the most perfectly cooked scallops ever. I had the bacon-wrapped scallops as an appetizer, followed by a chicken breast (yeah, I know - I don't eat a whole lot of fish - but it was an expertly cooked and completely delightful chicken breast). My husband had a plate of pan-seared scallops for his dinner, and he moaned softly with delight all the way through. We split a cheesecake, with crushed strawberries for dessert - it was also wonderful. Make a reservation, especially for a Thursday (apparently Thursday night is the hot night, and you need a rez months in advance). Also, BYOB. To be honest, this restaurant is worth traveling to the Western end of Nova Scotia for. read more

Fabulous charming art-filled Acadian restaurant in this small town. Everything was scrumptious- the seafood lasagna , the scallops, the Caesar salad, and the mocha and raspberry cheesecakes. Excellent service provided by Genevieve read more

Wow. The special appetizer of Scallops with a cheese and lobster sauce was a great way to start an incredible meal. I then had the special of the day which was baked haddock under a lobster sauce, with mashed potatos and peas and carrots. Also very good. My wife had the seafood lasagne and loved it. Coconut cream pue for dessert. This all with a bottle of wine that we picked up at Petite Riviera Winery. As the sun went down over the water, I could definitely say "it was a great day." read more

We came upon this restaurant while driving along highway 1 in the French/Acadian coast. There was a nice mix of locals and passers through. The staff was friendly and welcoming. The food was quite good. We particularly liked the fish chowder and the fish cakes. The fish/potato cakes reminded me of latkes and went well with the tangy chow-chow. A nice strawberry rhubarb pie rounded out our meal. This place is definitely worth a stop if you are in the area. read more

Really great restaurant!! The food was delicious, the fish was fresh, and the portions were great! Ordered the shrimp plate and I must say I wanted more even though I was full. Definitely worth a second visit! The restaurant building itself is located right next to the ocean and transforms a home into a restaurant. Really cute and the atmosphere was appreciated. read more

This place is a must for me every time I come to Nova Scotia. As a Bostonian, I have my share of seafood choices, I however, can't wait to visit this place. The people are so friendly and the view is phenomenal. I highly recommend the haddock with the cream lobster. And if you want a more Acadian experience try the Rappie Pie made from chicken and grated potatoes with the starch removed. Can't decide? They sometimes can give you appetizer dishes for a smaller taste of different plates. Nadine and Scott are very accommodating with any request I've ever had. Although they do not serve alcohol, you can bring your bottle of wine, and there is no corking fee. Enjoy the view!!! read more

Decor simple and no nonsense. Seafood delicious! Local scallops simply sauteed were sweet and cooked perfectly.I had haddock with lobster sauce (as in light cream sauce with chunks of lobster-NOT lobster sauce on Chinese menus).My husband's cousin always orders the seafood lasagna. Generous dessert portions. I think my slice of pie was 1/5 of whole pie (had to bring it home).BYOB. Fabulous,local place for a good meal. read more

Great home style cooking, known for their awesome seafood and does not disappoint. Their haddock with lobster sauce is awesome, as is my favourite... fish cakes! Their desserts are all homemade if you have room for it. Atmosphere is quaintly fitting, as it's an old farmhouse. By far the best seafood in South Western NS. read more

Well worth a stop if you are anywhere in the vicinity. We had a lovely lunch on the outside patio overlooking the coast. We were greeted warmly and served promptly and cheerfully. But the food is the star and rightfully so. We had lovely fresh chowder and having had multiple meals with chowder during our trip in Nova Scotia and PEI, this was by far the best. We saw other meals coming out, all of which smelled and looked great. Unfortunately we missed the rapee pie (the table next to us snapped that up) but we can report that there was no scrap left on anyone's plates. read more

Always the best local seafood and Acadian dishes. Their fish cakes are my favorite. All the dishes on the menu are worth a try. Pricing is fair for the quality and portion size. I highly recommend. read more

Found this amazing place with the help of my yelp app and it was one of the best places I have been to in quite a while! We had the famous fish cakes as an appetizer but might do them as a main next time...so good! Portion sizes are large, the fish fresh, and the scallops were HUGE! We didn't have room for dessert but couldn't resist taking a slice of coconut cream pie home for later! Looked too yummy from across the room as it came out 4 pieces at a time! Will definitely be back! read more
