We were here for our Anniversary dinner. The menu is diverse but reflective of the Acadian culture and seafood focus of the area. The food was delicious. Amazing Caesar Salad. Generous lobster in the club and delicious desserts. A great selection of cocktails, craft beer, and non alcoholic options. The restaurant has an"Alice in Wonderland" theme and has a huge selection of board games. We will definitely be back.

Stopped there for lunch after visiting the giant lobster statue nearby, so the lobster rolls were the cherry-on-top to the afternoon’s adventures! The ambiance was stellar—all of the little decorations were so fun to look at :))

What a hidden gem we stumbled upon over flip burger fest 2025 promos. If it wasn’t for this and their submission for the Cuban Royale version of mouth watering beef and pork then I not my friend would ever of known this place existed. Luckily we arrived and when asked if we had a reservation we said no and got in meanwhile it was quick to realize how lucky we were for a Lage Saturday morning . Walk d in confused feeling we were mistaken and entered wrong doors. Immediately greeted by warmth and cozy with smells reminiscent of grandmas house and from there it only got better ,9’ kt complaint was the bbq sauce was i ok we bearing and to much for the actual burger itself because of the sauce but English speaking not French at all and it being definitely French has zero impact on my choice to return there, we left just in complete aaw and 100 % satisfied What a cool place like hands down a must try. Montreal vibe meets small town rapport

This is such a cool little spot. We had the lobster mango wrap, the lobster quesadilla, and the lobster roll. (I think we had a theme) The restaurant was super neat, with each room having its own theme, both upstairs and down. It's a complete maximalist heaven. I'm excited to check this spot out again in the future.

The service was amazing. We were hosted by a very nice lady. As for the food, I highly recommend this place for their lobster roll. It’s a little small, but the taste is probably one of the best lobster rolls I’ve ever had during my East Coast trip. The slightly sweet mayonnaise made it so light and tasty! However, I tried the Acadian meat pie (warning if you’ve never had it!!!). I’d never had it before, so I wanted to give it a try. Let me tell you, the meat was so dry—pretty much like a meat floss pie—it felt like eating sand. I had to finish it with two glasses of water! The flavor was good, but oh man, that texture is just not something I’ll enjoy. So take my warning before you order!

Love this place, food is good, atmosphere is fantastic and fun, love the games. Service is good although occasionally slow to get checked on but it's so nice being there it was not a big drawback for me.

Went here for dinner. Great place. It mentions games so we weren't sure what to expect. It's a bistro for food but for an extra 10.00 you can p lay a game. They have 1700 different games to choose from. My math may be a bit off but this is a great place with good fresh food. I had the lobster roll and my husband had the lobster quesadilla. They were both delicious. Glad we stopped here.
