Although this restaurant came highly recommended by our friends, our experience was ultimately very disappointing. The starters were good and set a positive tone for the evening. However, things went downhill once the main courses arrived. The filet mignon portion was surprisingly small for the price, which was quite disappointing. The chicken parmigiano was decent but nothing special. The biggest issue was the lobster linguini. The lobster tail was extremely difficult to remove from the shell, making it frustrating to eat. When I brought this to the waiter’s attention, she kindly offered to replace it, but unfortunately, the second dish had the exact same problem. I ended up sending it back. When I explained the issue, I was told the lobster was fresh and cooked perfectly, which made the situation even more confusing. Overall, the experience did not match the expectations set by the recommendations. Considering the price, the quality simply wasn’t there. Unfortunately, I don’t think I would return.

Amazing Calamari and Fisherman Platter.
The food and service never disappoints! Been coming here for years:). Definitely worth going out of one’s way for!
Went there to eat after my wedding day.All went super amazing festive ambiance and stellar servirces. Food is really good and really affordable for the quality of food. We had a great time and no one was disappointed. Would recommend and retunr again.
We were at a party, so the dinner was covered but it was so good and our waiter was amazing! This restaurant has been in business a very long time and there's a reason why! I'll be going back again.
Fancy nice place with acceptable prices and food quantity. Got the ribs steak...omg delicious. All my friends were happy with their orders.
Come with our father during the Christmas holidays and as usual was not disappointed with the service and food. John, our waiter took the time and patience to look after my dad's family. Wish you would set up a similar establishment in the 1000 Islands. Definitely will be returning when back home. Never disappointed. Keep rocking it. Happy New Year 2026 to you all from the 1000 Islands, Ontario
