| - This is a local favourite.
Can't believe I haven't wrote a review yet! Not until after dinner there tonight - a friend asked if I had written a review yet... that I realised I hadn't done so. And I've dined here twice this week! (Haha, just happened - was unexpected! But just goes to show that they're this good!)
ATMOSPHERE:
Family-friendly, restaurant. A pretty lively bar - have of the restaurant is a bar and the other half a regular dining room. Open kitchen right in the dining room gives it a nice vibe - seeing the food prepared right before your eyes. Good place for casual meal, family dinners, or a date.
SERVICE:
Service can range, but our experience tonight - with a party of 16 no less! - was very good. Waters were promptly refilled, and just felt like we were not forgotten just because we were a large party.
PRICE:
Entrées range from $13-$40. Sum-Sum menu (special happy hour) which runs all day on Sundays, range from $5-$10 for smaller portions (like tapas style; totally worth checking out if you like to try everything on the menu but don't have the stomach space).
They have daily specials! Check their online menu for latest. Thursdays are quite popular because Oysters are $0.99 each.
FOOD:
They are just always reliable. Seafood done well. Fish, mussels, oysters - all yums! I really love their pastas - especially the smoked salmon and tiger shrimp penne (which they were sold out of tonight!). Entrée portions are generous. I usually am able to pack 1/2 to 1/3 of my plate for next day's lunch.
Oh, and don't forget to have some of the corn bread. It's a cajun restaurant - so it's got a bit of kick. But it's one of the BEST corn bread ever! It's a free starter - so don't let it go to waste!
Fun fact: Instead of mints, they give out lollipops at the end of the meal with your bill. It's one of the few places where you'll see a table of adults eating suckers. :P
Tip: If you have an account with Open Table - this restaurant is on their site! So make reservations on Open Table to collect points. :)
