| - I had my eye on seafood tower at Pearl Diver for a long time, but I never had a chance to get it. I felt like $29.99 was such a good deal for a seafood tower. I could have a little bit of everything. We had a dinner here before, and we enjoyed it. I didn't know why I waited for such a long time until tonight.
FOOD & DRINKS (4 stars)
Food- Food was the first thing that brought me back here. Everything on the menu looks interesting. However, I planned that I would get a seafood circus or seafood tower tonight. I'm a seafood lover. I always crave for seafood. Pearl Diver is a perfect place that I would recommend to family and friends. They offer a variety of seafood, fresh oysters and steaks. They also have daily specials from Monday to Sunday. We came on Tuesday. Their Tuesday special is a Seafood Tower for only $29.99. It starts from 6 pm. to 9 pm. The seafood tower came with 12 PEI Oysters, 4 Shrimp, 2 Tuna, 2 Crab legs and a small bowl of clams. That sounds great to me! The best part of the seafood tower was the clams. They tasted little sour, but they were yummy!
We also ordered Pacific Grey Cod ($30) with warm chickpea and salad. It was my husband dish. I only got small bites of it. I didn't want to steal his food and let him leave the restaurant with hungry tummy lol. I was happy with my dish.
Drinks- My husband got 2 pints of Wellington beer ($8/pint) while I had my usual drink, Bloody Caesar ($15) which garnished with an oyster ^-^.
Dessert- We ordered a Black Sesame Chiffon Cake ($9) for sharing. It came with Rhubarb sorbet, Poached rhubarb and Jasmine rice cream. It wasn't Wow! If I could give it a star, it would be 3 out of 5 stars though.
AMBIANCE (4 stars)
I like how cozy the place is. The restaurant looks simple and small from the outside, but I'm sure that it can accommodate up to 40 seats. The inside of the restaurant wasn't too bright or too dark. You can look at your beautiful food clearly and have nice shots of them. If you want to have yourself and your date in the pictures, do not mind to ask your server! Lol, I think they would love to offer the service. Or ask for Nozomi. She was our server that night. We were lucky to have a friendly and attentive server like her.
SERVICE (4.5 stars)
It was good starts from the beginning when I called in to make a reservation. I tried to do it on Yelp but the time we wanted wasn't available. So, I called in, and the person on the line arranged it for us. We made it at 7 pm. but we were running late when the time came. I called again to apologize and asked if it was possible to get the table still. I was aware that the restaurant was supposed to be busy at this time and I was more certain when I heard noise from the other side of the phone. However, he managed it for us without any attitude. We very appreciated.
Let me mention you to our server, Nozomi. I'd like to talk about service because I believe in service. I always check my server' name. I don't know if it's a good habit or not lol. I love to support wait staff and show them how I appreciate their service. I have my own tip rule ;D. Nozomi was very friendly. She always smiled and often came to check on us. That gave us a better dining experience.
PRICE (4 stars) $$-$$$ Seafood is always pricey, however, it's worth it. Moreover, $29.99 for a seafood tower is a pretty good deal for me. We also got 10% off of regular items from the Yelp check-in feature. It wasn't that much because the seafood tower was already special price. But I always love specials! Lol.
OVERALL (4.5 stars) We will be back!
