An absolute hidden gem! I started looking on the map for a restaurant with a good view and not only did we get a nice view, but we also had a little mini adventure drive to get to the location. You have maybe 3 minutes of twist and turn driving, but the way you pop out to the harbor is just pure eye candy. The food was nothing short of delicious, they have a very intentionally small, seasonal menu, but rest assured that everything is great. We had the Brandade as an appetizer and it was very well done. The waiter was nice enough to give us some extra bread for the clam chowder, and the fish and chips were divine! The service was all very quick and efficient. I don’t think they have a restroom, but I did spot a porta potty across from the seating area. Oh the seating is all outside, I didn’t expect that but it was fine as they had the portable heaters. I would love to come here in the summer when it’s hot inland!

Great fish and chips, amazing squash and lentils, delicious ginger cake. Good beer choices. Great vibe, hidden gem. *update* have been back multiple times since the first visit, every time the food is great, vibe is good. They have live music most saturday nights.

Hidden Jewel! The fish & chips with fries and seafood soup are a must try. Enjoyed the Cesar salad for its freshness and the croutons and parmasean chesse, but was missing the vibrant Ceasar Dressing taste.

Getting to the restaurant was a bit strange as you go up and down narrow road. But once you’re there, you’re greeted by several huge statues. We go to the restaurant around a late lunch/early dinner time and it was not too busy but by the time we left the restaurant started getting busy. After enjoying the lovely meal, we got to walk the beach and enjoy the bay scenery. I’ll also note that cell signal is a little spotty and the restaurant is very dog friendly.

We decided to go eat at this hidden Oasis, when we got there the atmosphere was fantastic the music was playing and the food was awesome I would definitely recommend this place ,we will be going back..

The atmosphere was awesome! Live music, outdoors with scenic views. The food was pretty good, but pretty expensive. The seafood gumbo thing was yummy, but for $30 was very little. The fish n chips were pretty good but also quite expensive. Service was great. Overall, yummy, just pricey.

This is a find! Check out the website for music offerings. The views are unbelievable. It is out on the bay, so dressing in layers is a must. Great food offerings with plenty of GF choices. Our group of 6 had a wonderful time enjoying the afternoon.

A wonderful spot for a nice sunny day. The food was fantastic. We had the pizza, made in a firewood oven, awesome fish and chips, a great fish stew and a generous amount of clams. It's a bit on the pricey side, but worth it IMO.
