Visiting for the first time. The server speaks both English and French. You are sitting where you can watch the ferry cross the St. Lawrence River while you eat. The food is delicious. I recommend the Captain’s platter which has shrimp, scallops, lobster, and sole. Make sure you have the strawberry pie for dessert!

Great place and the view must have been incredible unfortunately there was fog when we went there. The food was good and the service was amazing. Recommended.

This place is terrific for seafood and the staff we had was welcoming and friendly. It is pretty quaint and popular so you better make a reservation or you will not get in. The menu has french and english so you can always point at the menu if there is a language barrier. Stick around for a beautiful sunset.

Great service and the food was delicious. I had the fisherman’s platter and couldn’t finish it and my husband had the lobster club which looked fantastic and he loved it.

Had we not got there at 11:30a, we would have had a wait. Very popular spot. Service was great. Loved my escargot appy and Lobster roll. Beer from the local microbrewery was a great touch.

Warm and friendly service even if you don't speak French. Lobster roll was amazing, definitely 100g seasoned lobster meat if not more on lettuce in a flatbread. Lobster poutine is also amazing with a good portion of lobster, lots of cheese curds and a white sauce kind of like bechamel. Indoor seating is very cozy and homey and outdoors seating with a fantastic view of the St Lawrence.

Definitely a hidden gem, I initially went here to view the sunset but stumbled upon this place. Amazing food, the portions are surprisingly large. Service is good too.
