    I had the crab cake and my partner had the salad, the crab cake was a good size, was nice and crispy on the outside but lacked flavour, needed some seasoning. My partners enjoyed his salad. Entrees-we both had the miso sablefish with risotto, we both thoroughly enjoyed this dish, the flavours were amazing. The only downside was the portion was small. Desserts were disappointing, I had the trio of cheesecake, it was served in a champagne glass, the cheesecakes were cheesecake bites, the three together didn’t make up a single slice of cheesecake. My partner had the diplomat cake, this was more of a custard with a graham cracker base and he found it to be “ok”. The server was nice enough but not at all attentive. Will we be rushing back anytime soon, probably not, if we did it would be for the miso sablefish which was the highlight of the meal.

    We went to blue canoe for dine out which was great, initially the appetizers took a while to come out, but after they did it was smooth sailing from there. The Risotto was really well done, crab cakes were nice, and overall we really enjoyed the experience. We were also in a rush to pick someone up from the airport, and after asking to receive the entree and dessert together, the wait staff was able to oblige to get us out faster. All in all, great seafood house in a great location.

    The service was good. The miso glazed sablefish was a bit on the salty side. The desserts could have been better.

    Lovely evening with friends! We sat inside although many were dining in enclosed patio. Our server was incredibly personable, hard working and sweet! Our food was good.

    Food was good but portion size a bit small. The steak salad was 90% cabbage . The steak was very thin, less than a quarter inch thick. The dine out crab cake was really superb but the portion size of the brisket and sable fish was a bit tiny, (tasty though) hardly have any veggies, just a blob of mash potatoes on the bottom, didn't match the description on the menu. Ambiance was good in the patio area, nice and warm with the heaters. Service was good.
