BLUENOSE II RESTAURANT REVIEWS

After getting off the Hopper tour I asked the guide for a recommendation for a lobster dinner. He named a few but said I would go to the Bluenose. The waiter, his name was Will was excellent! The lobster dinner was very good. He gave me instruction sheet on how to crack the lobster. I really enjoyed it. Go hungry if you have this dinner for 50$, lobster, potato salad, coleslaw, chowder and a fresh bun. You can end it with rice pudding but I declined as I was full.

The food was amazing. I never really liked calamari, but their calamari tasted great. So did the lobster roll. If you're getting side, go for the fries. The mashed potatoes was eh. The service was great, very friendly and helpful. The vibe was also great.

Service was excellent, we had a small baby with us which requires a lot of patience from the waiter and he was great. Awesome to eat all the local seafood cooked properly and not break the bank on Alex. We had a seafood platter and the traditional fish cakes. Would recommend this place so much any time for people visiting the Maritimes and wanting to enjoy the seafood.

MASHAWEE MEDITERRANEAN GRILL REVIEWS

Early morning - Their open sign wasn’t lit up, but I still walked in. Was still able to order food as they were preparing to set up the place for the day, which was rlly convenient for me as I was super hungry. I got shawarma with the works and 3 samosas, the place had a homely atmosphere and smelt really nice from all the different spices in the food. Big shawarma for the price and each of the three samosas were different and each tasted good and delicious in their own way.

Forever my go-to takeout spot. I always get the half-grilled chicken with biryani rice 10/10. Honestly the portion size is incredible, deffo get your moneys worth. As well, the staff is so accommodating and always gives me extra coleslaw instead of hummus and I really appreciate that.

The food is very tasty. The lamb was very moist and tender, the rice was cooked perfectly, and above all, the humus tasted amazing! What was even better than the food was the Turkish guy, the Palestinian lady, and the Lebanese man and woman. They were very hospitable and nice.

ELA! GREEK TAVERNA RESTAURANT REVIEWS

If you are looking for Greek vibes and nice sit down meal this is the place to be! Very good food with so many options to choose from including many vegan and gluten-free friendly choices. The staff are really attentive and helpful. You can come here just for two or big group.

This place is very good. I get the lamb every time I go, it is always delicious. Considering we are not in the Mediterranean, I can't find many flaws. The servers are also very pleasant here which is an extra bonus in today's world.

Everything was amazing here! Food was amazing server was really nice the inside of the restaurant was very clean. The serving size for food is actually decent and I didn't feel like I was over paying. Can't wait to be back.
