Husband and I both had pasta. It was fantastic! We usually are not fussed or scared away by cost when dining out, although found most of the menu overpriced. Not sure if that’s due to location, as the Halifax boardwalk can be steep as well, but most of these dishes, we could get for much less in Halifax, so it was surprisingly high during a low tourism month. What we had was delicious. We shared two different pastas.

I had the scallops and my husband had the rabbit/scallop risotto. Both meals were delicious and the presentation was perfect. We drove from Halifax to Lunenburg and it was worth the drive. We will be back!

We visit Lunenburg from Texas every year, basically to eat at this restaurant, and this time definitely did not disappoint. Service is always great, wine pricing is reasonable, and standouts for us are the Beach Pea Caesar, Mussels, Lobster Pappardelle, and Steak Frites. We’ll be back next year!

The swordfish was delicious and cooked to perfection. The ravioli was also delicious. Service was great and my favourite appetizer, calamari, was cooked just right.
