Customer Reviews
We heard of this originally on the TV show Phantom Gourmet, and finally got for a dinner in mid January. This was a truly excellent dining experience. The dining room on the first floor is simply and beautifully decorated and there is very nice background music playing (softly). It is a very comfortable room and easy to have a conversation The staff are friendly and knowledgeable and very attentive. The food is outstanding. They had French onion soup on the menu and it was delicious and arrive very hot. For entrees we had the lamb chops and the Portuguese style fish stew - both were excellent. We split the Coco Daniel for dessert which as delicious and not too filling. We’ll definitely be back!
Outstanding locally sourced food and innovative presentation. Beginning with focaccia and a red pepper sauce, then shrimp prepared three different ways, and an exceptional haddock entree. Not often you get great food in a tourist area, but this was exceptional. Also had a wonderful server, making for a perfect dinner. Highly recommend.
Stopped by My Place by the Sea for lunch while exploring Bear Skin Neck. The service was great and the food was delicious. We chose to sit outside on the deck despite the chilly weather and enjoyed the view. We paid a little more compared to other places in the area but it was worth it because of the view and the service.
We ate upstairs on the upper deck with stunning sunset views for a quiet and romantic dinner. Excellent attentive service even for being away from the main level. Everything was perfectly timed from the drinks, to the bread, to the chowder, to the meal. The clam chowder was some of the best clam chowder I've had in a long time. The swordfish special was fork tender, the perfect thickness, and the best flavor, and a meal that is going to be hard to beat for a long time. The steak was also very flavorful and a great option for my landlubber date. I was allowed to try a bite of it and it was every bit as flavorful. A dining experience to remember. I'd highly recommend it. Reservations recommended especially if trying to dine on nice evening at a 'place by the sea'.
Just a lovely place. Stopped on a cold, rainy winter day. Well worth the trip and will be back. Great food and we bought the cookbook.
