Chantarelles - Norris Point

It was great to see you! The service was quick and friendly. The salmon and chicken were both delicious. I definitely plan to return.

We stayed at this inn and dined here on our first night in Norris Point. I ordered the duck, while my spouse chose the pork belly. Both dishes were excellent and met all our expectations. The inn offers a special each evening, but they need to have an idea of how many guests to expect by 10 PM for fresh shopping, so if you're not staying here, you might miss out on the specials. The wine list is quite good, though not extensive, and it’s clearly thoughtfully curated. Local Newfoundland beers are also available. Overall, we had a fantastic meal with plenty of options on the menu. On the night we were there, the special was lobster. Prices are typical for higher-quality meals in the area. I’ll definitely be back.

After a week of overcooked seafood, this was a delightful change. The shells were excellent—perfectly cooked and incredibly fresh, served in a delicious tomato garlic sauce at a very reasonable price. I also enjoyed a lovely amuse-bouche of salt-cod brandade. The kitchen's special was panko-baked cod, which was, once again, cooked to perfection—simple, fresh, and juicy. The ribeye was rich and flavorful, prepared with a robust demi-glace.

We didn't realise we needed a reservation and got there right at 5pm when they opened. Luckily, we were let in as they weren't busy right at 5pm. We ordered their specials of the day, a potato and bacon soup and the Pan Seared NL Cod. Our friend also ordered a plate of muscles. We got served some bread with butter while we waited for our meals. 1. I loved the potato bacon soup. Forgot to take a picture of it but it was a decent amount. 2. The plate of cod seemed like a small serving but there was quite a bit in there. I will post a picture of this. 3. I'm not a muscles person but my friend and my husband liked it a lot. I forgot to take a picture of this also but there were lots of muscles on that plate. The prices were on the high side but it was expected because a place that requires a reservation normally is very fancy looking and this place definitely was! We felt VERY underdressed in our shorts, t-shirts and hiking shoes. The staff were really friendly and if I came back to this place, I'd definitely revisit this restaurant!

Enjoyed the view. Service was prompt and friendly. The salmon and the chicken were tasty. Plan on returning.
