The best seafood I've had since I can remember. The outside seems a little humble but don't let that fool you. The wait staff are very friendly and helpful. The quality of the food is top-notch. The seafood chowder is easily the best I've had, packed with real seafood! The portions are huge especially for the specialty platters. The price may be daunting (I paid nearly 100 for supper for myself but I over indulged) but you have to ask yourself what some of the best seafood you've ever eaten is worth paying. If you're not daunted then this restaurant probably is for you.

Absolutely delicious. The place is not greatly decorated, but the food is simply something else. Ultra fresh. I was cutting the scallops with the side of my fork. The shrimps were really tasteful too. I recommend for a seafood experience.

Has kind of a old look, but had a fantastic dinner ! The chowder was excellent; the seafood was definitely fresh ! A bit on the salty side though. For the main course we had the « Diner du Pecheur pour 2 ». It was awesome; the lobster was perfectly cooked; the crabs was excellent. The scallops tasty and the cod and haddock were very good ! Seriously it’s a great plate . It was coming with rice. Only down side were the veggies; they were clearly from frozen. Great experience for Havre-St-Pierre!

Once our appetite had been ignited by a generously hearty seafood chowder, they brought us out a platter fit for the most discerning and ravenous of fishermen. Our server was kind, quick and knowledgeable. He not only helped us plan our meal, but provided us with tips only the locals would know for our adventures the following day. A necessary stop for those looking to indulge and savour the sea’s treasures.

Best restaurant I've ever been and I've been to many. On Snowmobile trip and just happened to stop in. Had the Seafood platter and it was delicious. Would go back again just to go there. Boston Bruins were there the week before we arrived. The chef and owner sat down with us and so did the waitress. Warm and friendly place.

I really enjoyed my meal at this restaurant. The shrimp and cod were incredibly fresh and cooked to perfection—light, flavorful, and satisfying. The seasoned vegetables were well-balanced, enhancing the dish without being overpowering. The highlight for me was the homemade salad sauce—it was rich, fresh, and absolutely delicious. A great place for a well-prepared, wholesome meal!

We were stopping for fuel after hours at the Havre-St-Pier airport. None of the restaurants in town delivered but we called Chez Julie and the owner offered to bring us food. Amazing service 10/10 would recommend.
