10. The Dockside Inn & Restaurant

Saturday night in Lunenburg we made a rezo at a local resto and because of our lack of research discovered that they had a very limited menu. We then thought we would try to get a table at The Grand Banker as it was now 7:45. There was quite a line up and what sounded like some confusion as to who was next in line to get a table. We never did talk to a hostess, one of the folks standing at the door said they had been there for 15 minutes and no one from the restaurant had talked to them. So where to now? Up the stairs and turn right into the Dockside got a table right away and as bonus got Kyle as our server, this young man could brighten anyone's day. The entire crew were fantastic and the food was spectacular. So glad we ended up at the Dockside. Sometimes Sideways ain't bad.

We took a trip to Lunenburg and after finishing a tour of the museum, we decided to have dinner at this restaurant overlooking Lunenburg harbour.The service was exceptional. Shyanne was a delight and made frequent trips to our table to check in on us. The food was great, too.We started with mussels in white wine sauce and they were quite tasty. My wife ordered the scallop dinner which were good and garlic mash and vegetables that were delicious. I had the rice noodles with veggies in a Thai sauce topped with salmon. It, too, was very good though I did find the salmon a little dry for my liking.My wife had the apple cake with rum sauce which was delicious and I had the blueberry pudding which was divine.Weâd recommend eating here.

Four of us really enjoyed the whole experience we had at this restaurant recently. The cooking is creative, and prepared very well. The scallops were cooked perfectly and they were served with a complimentary vegetable combination. Our server was very efficient and pleasant. We felt there was good value. I would recommend a reservation as it is a popular spot for dinner and there is somewhat limited seating. I can recommend this restaurant highly.

Great location overlooking the water in historic Lunenburg. Started with the mussels in curry which was unique and very good. A few of the mussels had a foul flavor but most were delicious. We also had the seafood quartet. The salmon was perfect, the breading on the haddock was yummy and scallops were local and delicious. The shrimp was also good. The potatoes seemed like instant potatoes but that was our only complaint. The rum bread pudding was excellent. Our bill was close to 70 CAD but we had a beer and dessert.

We were looking for oysters and finally found oysters! I mean we went to Vancouver just for the oysters and was hoping for variety like there here in NS. This was the ONLY place! And fresh and fabulous oysters! We got the tower, then all of the varieties and some shrimp tacos for good measure. All super tasty and fresh. Probably our best meal in NS. Great service too!!BUT tiny detail - Half Shell, if you are reading this can you train your oyster shucker a bit more? He sometimes massacres your beautiful oysters. The liquor is missing at times, they arenât flipped and some are shredded. Just details as the taste was divine, just think these little guys deserve justice ;)

Referred here by our hotel owner, we were impressed enough to visit twice in 2 days. While menu was limited, dishes were carefully thought out and prepared to a surprisingly sophisticated palate. Small but nice wine list as well. Staff was very considerate and helpful

The Salt Shaker Deli and Inn, is one of Lunenburg's most beloved destinations for local residents and visitors alike. Award winning dishes prepared with fresh local ingredients from the Deli makes staying upstairs in the cozy four room Inn an easy choice.
Reviewed By VesteDemitte
Open year around, the Salt Shaker deli is one of the best places to eat (brunch, lunch or dinner) in the south shore. With a full menu, great beers on tap and a solid wine selection, everything here is awesome. You can't make a bad choice with any of the pizzas, the pad thai dishes are great. My favorite is the smoked salmon club. Great atmosphere and staff are wonderful.

This small, informal restaurant, with good views of the harbor, has really great lobster rolls and delicious haddock chowder! Itâs wine list is limited to NS wines and the beer is all local too. We were very happy with Saltbox Brewingâs Holy Mackerel and Nine Locksâ Dirty Blonde. Itâs small, so get there early for the best views!

First time trying LSF and overall very happy with the experience. We would return and recommend. The open kitchen concept with small dining room and tastefully decorated space provides a cozy dining atmosphere. The staff were very friendly, knowledgeable and professional. The locally sourced food options were excellent and well prepared. Fish and homemade pasta options we tried were delicious as was the hummus and crab salad starters.Looking forward to returning and trying other items on the menu.
