The beef tataki was served over cooked , we returned it and didn't ask for a second, the second wasn't any better we said we didn't want it. They still charged us for the it although it was completely uneaten. They forgot our sashimi order and the manager doesn't know anything about customer service. The food was so so but not worth going back

If you're looking for an "asian" flare to your seafood dinner, this is an excellent choice. The oysters were fresh and good quality, and the rack of lamb was amazing as well.Seemed like the night we went it was quite busy, and with that, we sat close together with our neighboring tables. Thankfully the folks next to us rotated in and out, so we were not in between two tables that were dining at the same time. But you'll be too busy eating your delicious meal to notice once the food hits the table!

At Sea Smoke Restaurant, the dining experience is a symphony of flavors and artistry. From the daily fresh oysters, likely sourced from PEI and tantalizingly adorned with lime, to the perfectly seared scallops shared amongst friends, every dish is a testament to culinary finesse. The main courses are no exception; the Roasted Halibut with Champagne Honey Sauce boasts an Atlantic halibut fillet perfectly complemented by the delicate sweetness of the sauce, while the Rack of Lamb, marinated in garlic and accompanied by Japanese goma sauce, is a savory delight. The attentive service only enhances the experience, ensuring every need is met with grace and efficiency. Even with a strong sweet tooth, the dessert, aptly named Magic Mushroom, was a bit overwhelming in its sweetness, but the professionalism with which the feedback was received speaks volumes about the dedication of the staff to their craft. Sea Smoke Restaurant not only delivers exquisite cuisine but also demonstrates a commitment to excellence that sets it apart in the realm of gourmet dining.

Generally say it's fine as a restaurant in tourist attractions area. But if considering a 4-star rating restaurant, this is far away. Seafood tower is market price so supposed to be fresh, But not. Like frozen fishes and lobster that you can buy in freezing zone of those 24 hours small grocery store. Cocktail very normal, no comment. Chowder and salad are good, But didn't expect those are the best part in this meal hahah. Service is ok. Just a very average or below average place.

Great service, attentive, friendly and very knowledgeable server . Sticky pork ribs were fall off the bone tender and a fabulous sauce. The seafood skillet was well seasoned, beautifully presented but a bit skimpy on the quantity. Nice ambiance, inviting and comfortable, I will return.

Sat outside for a drink. Fires at the table helped take the chill off. Service was good.

I very much enjoyed the food and atmosphere. I had two sushi rolls and two mock tails. All was delicious. The restaurant is pricey but I found Space available at fairly last-minute in March so I was happy

Decent food, not a lot of selection of oysters but a beautiful venue and fresh fish. The cuts of fish are good sized, rolls are well proportioned. Scallop sashimi was tasty, best thing is the area and portions.

If you are looking for s a nice sushi lunch, you should avoid this restaurant. They serve me the worst maki I ever taste. The rice was awful, too sticky and the taste was bad. The fish was not cut properly, too thick and. The fish was not fresh. It did not meet the sushi standard. I felt sick all afternoon and I still do not feel great, 9 hours after lunch. I ate 3 pieces, one of each fish.I should have left when I receive the plate. It was terrible lunch and even worst it got me sick.

I hate to give bad reviews but here we go. I can’t comment to the food as well, we just never got served. Looking forward to a great meal to celebrate an occasion we picked this place. Made reservations and even showed up a few minutes prior. The patio was busy but not packed, the restaurant had more empty tables then full. We were seated promptly and then forgotten about. Several staff members walked by us, looked at us but not a word was said. After about 10 minutes we got up and left as only then was a server sent over to us. The manager did follow up by email with me to apologize (calling me white jonson) in the email and after a polite reply never heard a word back. I’m not asking to be fawned over but in a day and age when eating out cost you a small fortune I don’t think this is a good look.

This was our first time to Sea Smoke. We anticipated coming in and getting some starters and sushi but then seen they had the dine around menu on for $50. We both decided to go with this. Starters we got the tuna crispy rice and the crispy spring rolls both were good but I did find the coconut flavour strong in the crispy rice. For entrees we got the beef tenderloin and the sushi combo. The sushi was the best sushi I have ever eaten I'm still thinking about it. The beef tenderloin was good. The dessert was a chocolate mousse with a coconut whip cream. It was good I'm just not a fan of coconut so wasn't my favorite dessert. We enjoyed the service and the atmosphere and believe it would be an amazing spot in the summer with the decks and fire tables. We will definitely be back!!
