If you would like an upscale meal while being able to just cruise in off the street then this is your place. While we made reservations, you could have found a table at the same time(7pm). Although not pictured currently I enjoyed probably one of the best crème brûlée desserts I've had in my life (out of 50-60 times ordered). It was both creamy yet had a nice sugar flamed crust. Great plate presentation. The decor and ambiance of this old house turned restaurant is top notch. We sat on what used to be an open deck which is now closed in. Our server(Jimbo) was both professional and friendly while very knowledgeable about the entire menu. Every dish was very nicely prepared and every plate was completely eaten which is rare for all four of us. My wife and I also used one of the plate sides as an appetizer: kettle chips with a balsamic glaze and bleu cheese aioli. It was delicious!! I personally enjoyed the Seafood Linguini dish, the pasta was fresh, seafood was plentiful and the white wine garlic tarragon crème sauce was smooth and very delicious. Definitely worth the price. Overall we truly enjoyed our dinner and the experience. Thank you for bringing a big city style menu to your quaint seaside small town.

Very cute interior and setup/decor. Service was attentive and good. Food was excellent. Ordered the oysters, chowder, muscles, scallop dog and lobster roll. Unsurprisingly, the oysters were fresh and delicious. They had a little chart that showed where the oysters were harvested on the island. Everything was delicious and recommended.

We dined here for our anniversary a couple of days ago. A lovely experience!

The staff were friendly, efficient and attentive. They easily accomodated us with some swaps and a last minute addition to our order! The food was perfection. We had a mix of raw oysters and oysters Rockefeller to start. SO good, although I suppose the oyster gets some credit here! We both had the special, which was filet mignon with lobster, herbed risotto, asparagus and fiddleheads. Cooked to perfection, good portions, and nicely plated. Desserts were also great - sticky toffee pudding and dulce de leche cake. The cake was on the house, with "Happy Anniversary" written in chocolate on the plate. An awesome finishing touch on a memorable meal!! Thanks Wiley's!! You could rival any restaurant in downtown Halifax!

This place is located on the main stretch of the vert touristy and BUSY stretch in Tatamagouche. It's small - about a dozen tables - so expect to wait if you're coming during the obvious hours (lunch/supper). The three of us got the last table for 4 but it was squishy because the place was packed! Service is friendly and quick! We honestly came specifically for the chowder and didn't try anything else because we all planned a visit to the chocolate shop, the brewery and the winery. The soup was a really good sized portion for $14 and it was creamy - something that's often lacking when you order chowder. It comes with two pieces of baguette which is great to dip into the chowder. The only complaint would be is that the chowder really lacks the staples as advertised. We did find LOTS of shrimp in each bowl, but one of us got one rubbery scallop in our bowl where the other two had none. The fish was also very difficult to catch as it seemed very little made it into the bowls. Despite it being very busy, the service was prompt and the food came out fairly quickly. There was an event going on at the winery up the highway so it is possible the menu was rushed that day. Overall, for the price, I really don't have too much to complain about but it would be nice to find more fish in the chowder. Lots of street parking available and they have an extensive menu. Google/Facebook say closed Sundays, but call ahead because we came on a Sunday in the middle of November and they were definitely open. Worth a shot and the rest of the menu looked like it had some great options.

The waiting time after the order is about 40 to 45 minutes. there are two people next to us, ordered after us got their food first, I noticed they ordered fish chowders as well. It's a chowder in a medium size blue colour bowl. we got our other food first then after a while we got the chowder in a salad bowl, same bowl as our Caesar salad. It's a triangle shaped bowl. I thought they may run out of regular chowder bowl so I didn't say anything, then later on I noticed other customers got their chowder in a regular chowder bowl, with bread and butter. I didn't get butter. I didn't say anything because I don't want to my kids feel because we are only Asian people there so they gave us a salad bowl for a soup dish, maybe they think we can't tell the difference. Honestly I don't think my kids and husband even notice that. Back to food, the chowder is ok, not Good enough to name the restaurant based on this dish. Lack of flavour and fish and shrimp are tough, lots of potatoes not much of fish. I found one small scallops and one shrimp in the bowl. I don't think there is lobster meat in there. Maybe they think we are tourists but we go to Tatamagouche quite often because we have our camper near by about 10 minutes drive away. Probably won't be back, if we do, next time I got a special bowl or plate I will sure to ask Why.

Well, maybe the homemade lemon meringue pie slice just wasn't tangy enough for our taste. But that aside, there's not much that didn't leave us smiling after a recent lunch-time visit. The outside deck is a wonderful spot to relax and enjoy your beer and sandwich while watching the boats and herons (and some guy who appeared to be trying to fish using a coat hanger). The cheeseburger, BLT and haddock and chips were tasty, and they also served up Cokes, a welcome sight for us in a Pepsi-dominated country. Our waitress couldn't have been nicer, and the patron around us all seemed cheerful and happy to chat. All together it made for a very congenial dining experience.

Our meals consisted of fish for me and a burger for my boyfriend. My fish was very bland and I needed to ask for salt and pepper which was not on the table in hopes of giving it some flavor.
