My girlfriend and I had high expectations coming in for lunch. We saw some of the photos and the food looked delicious. The prices were on the high side, but that didn't shy us to turn away.
The quality of the appearance of food looked amazing. They had a small kitchen on one side, they a showcase of prepared items like salads and crab cakes, then a smaller showcase of fresh daily catches. The seafood looked very very fresh and we couldn't wait to eat.
The service is fantastic from beginning to end.
I ordered the 2 piece ling cod and chips. The fish was so plump and the fries were really good. However... The batter didn't seem to have any seasoning. It tasted really bland... But that's fine, I could always add vinegar and seasoning at the table. Atleast I know it's not caked with loads of sodium.
The fisherman's stew had alot of seafood and the colour of the broth was rich in tomato colour. However again... It seemed to be missing seasoning again?! We were fine because we just added hot sauce and a touch of salt and it was perfect!
At the end, we enjoyed our meal. I'm not sure about rating it higher. I was contemplating but just based on today's food, we weren't completely disappointed, just left content, but not satisfied. Especially when your paying a premium price. Then again I appreciate the fact that all the ingredients are fresh and they are using wholesome ingredients, instead of can items with alot of sodium and preservatives.
The seafood is always fresh. Lots of good salads to take out as well as vegetables that you wouldn't normally bother to make...risotto cakes, beet terrine, roasted tomatoes etc. the kitchen has a fairly limited menu but it's all delicious!
Best fish and chips I've ever eaten. I was attracted to this place for two reasons, their location, and the fact that they have sablefish fish and chips. Although a bit pricy, their sablefish and chips was amazing. Served with fresh fries, and an Asian slaw, the fish was cooked perfectly and not over seasoned. I was able to taste the fish and added tartar sauce to season as I liked. It's more of a cafe type place and they don't offer table service. That being said, it seems to get alot of volume, and as I said before, their sablefish and chips were the best fish and chips I've ever had.
