    Great food and wonderful service. Chowder was so flavourful with lots of seafood and the fish and chips was exceptional. Highly recommend

    The restaurant itself is very nice. Everything started out wonderfully, we had a calamari appetizer to start, which was very good. However, midway through our appetizer we saw a mouse close by on the floor, and lost our appetite. We mentioned it to our server who advised they had just recently become aware of a problem & management was trying to address it. No fault of the server, who was amazing.

    My wife and I enjoy a fabulous meal (the Jackpot burger with a side and split a salad). Drinks came fast. Our server (Temira) was an absolute gem, fun and personable and that made our dining experience one of the best we’ve had. Keep up the great work. Well done everyone. Cheers Robert and Donna Whiting

    Four of us enjoyed the Burger Love and all enjoyed it — nice zip to it and very filling! The service was excellent. A fun evening.
