Stopped here for breakfast while on the Island for Sommo. The service was amazing, so quick and friendly! The food was also DELICIOUS, and cost friendly. Would definitely recommend this place!!

We had lunch of a wonderful bowl of seafood chowder... yes, lots of lobster! Probably the best I've ever had. Plus a turkey sandwich, again real turkey! Delicious! When it came to dinner we decided to do take out. After looking at different menus etc, we ended up back at Chez Yvonne for spaghetti and fried chicken.. no fries, just salad and again a great meal! So highly recommend if you're in Cavendish beach!

Home style local meals & excellent service all around. It's a great spot for a family to get a bite to eat, since the menu selection has a wide range of options to satisfy all family members. The mussels are a MUST try.... delicous, fresh, & local

The service was redeeming! Excellent service from entry to exit. Fast, helpful, happy and smiling! The food was just okay. My son had the kids spaghetti, my husband had the steak and I had the bacon wrapped scallops. Everything was fine but was much like a meal we could have cooked at home - which you think sometimes that’s what you want but in reality no - if I’m paying triple what it would cost me to make then I don’t want it to taste like anything I’d be confident in making haha! It feels like a much older crowd would really appreciate the simplicity.

Excellent service. The staff were so friendly. We were seated quickly and got our meals just as quick. The meals were delicious. I'm just sad that I was too full for dessert!

A cold September, after storm Lee found us in this area looking for places to visit: fortunately the tourists were gone which meant that very few places were open according to this website, gracefully detailing even opening times. We found this place and with only one table taken we were wondering how the food is going to be? The staff was simply amazing and our food was just great: we all had sea food which is so fresh in this area and great value for money. Great place, great staff.

We came across this store by chance on the way to the scenic spot. We didn't have any expectations, but we were wrong. The food and service were beyond imagination. We are from Ottawa, and will come here next time<3

Came here by recommendation of a college aged tour guide. Liked it as a local favorite. We had high expectations of the seafood but were disappointed. It was a Thursday, early evening in early August. The place wasn’t overly crowded. The exterior looks fun and inviting with great outdoor seating. Service was good but there wasn’t a lot of flexibility with the kitchen staff and special preparation requests. Understandable if they’re busy but they didn’t appear to be. And the request was to use less butter in preparation with one of the meals because of diet restrictions. But, we worked with it anyway. We were very disappointed with the size of the scallops. We know there’s a difference in bay scallops and sea scallops but these were definitely the bay scallops or if they weren’t, very, very small sea scallops. The mashed potatoes were dry. The best thing was the chocolate malt. It looked like other people’s plates of fish and shrimp looked better but we opted for scallops. Had we seen them first, we wouldn’t have.

The best restaurant in the region. The restaurant is large, clean, warm and the staff is very nice. We went there twice during our stay, the first time during dinner time. The restaurant was full and our dishes were served in less than 30 minutes. The second time was for lunch. We had to wait a while to be seated as several people were waiting before us. Anyway... lunch was delicious. - Good value for money. - Good portions. - Nice atmosphere. - Fresh seafood.

I ordered the scallops. For the price (27$) I did not expect to only have 5 pieces, accompanied by a small portion of fries and unseasonned carrots on the side. Its a real shame because what my friends ordered looked and tasted great, but I cant offer a higher rating due to the inconsistency.

I found the portion small for what I was paying. Our server was very friendly and professional. We were a large group and she was able to manage us well. The raspberry cream cheese pie was delicious!

Dietary restrictions: I have celiac disease so cant have anything with gluten(wheat). I have not found a restaurant in Florida or the Maritimes that has such a wonderful gluten free menu. And above all gluten free gravy!!! No where has this been available! I usually have to have my turkey dinner or hot sandwich plain with no gravy. YUCK. WHAT A TREAT it was to have a hot turkey sandwich with gravy. My family was excited as I was that I could get something I really could enjoy. I wish your restaurant was in NB. We will be back to the Island just to go to your restaurant. Thank you. Thank you Thank you

Wasn t the greatest experience, lots of parking, clean, nice staff food was sub par for the price. Scallops needs to have the tough foot off. Lobster tasted like the claws had the elastics on. Spaghetti was meh and garlic toast was gross. When you charge someone $6 extra for a salad, don t put it with the food that is hot or under the hot warmer. Salads came out warm and disgusting. Serve them separately, cold bowl if possible. Only stand out thing was the chowder. It was decent.

A bit of a delayed review, but I want to get started off by saying this dining experience was incredible. I came with 7 people and they immediately got us sat down. As soon as we were in our seats the waiters have already bolted out with baskets of bread with butter. I ordered the famous fish and chips and it took approximately 4 minutes for my food to arrive and was the fastest presentation I ve ever received at a restaurant. The service was also awesome, we found a little piece of plastic in our food which was all good cause we didn t mind but they seemed genuinely so apologetic and offered us free desert and let me tel you the strawberry shortcake was on a different level! This place definitely deserves the stars.

Disappointing food, you will leave still hungry. Ordered Gluten Free spaghetti which came out in a very small size, for $20 + tax you d think you would get more than a couple of bites. The sauce was very watery , was a pool of water at the bottom of the bowl. There was more water then there was sauce Also ordered the fish and chips, fish seemed like a larger piece but when you cut into it, you ll realize that it s just all batter and barely any fish inside. The fish was also served with a side of carrots which seems odd for a fish and chips plate. Was also give a high chair for my child, the tray to the high chair was completely dirty and had mold on it !! Overall I d suggest going else where, especially for the price you ll pay and also you ll be leaving still hungry.

Dined in for breakfast on Father s Day. Service was incredible and waitress was very nice. Ordered the strawberry milkshake, side sausages, traditional breakfast, and lobster eggs Benny. I did not know what hollandaise sauce was before I came here, but it was delicious! I think they make theirs with lemon and it was delicious paired with the poached eggs. I ve never had lobster, I couldn t quite tell the difference from fresh crab I ve had but it was definitely fresh and good! Potatoes that came with the meals were decent, seeming typical potatoes for a breakfast restaurant. Needed salt, but hey if you re trying to cut back on salt then you wouldn t need any! Heart healthy haha. Traditional breakfast was pretty good according to my wife, better than a typical breakfast diner . The strawberry milkshake was *heavenly* and we had to order one to-go because we didn t want to stop drinking it. For reference, that milkshake was 12/10, made my eyes roll back in my head . Also LGBTQ friendly, felt very safe in PEI overall. 9/10, a bit pricey but breakfast prices were much better than the typical entrees. Would come again. Wheelchair accessibility: I wasn t looking exactly if there was a wheelchair accessible entrance, there may be one in the back I glanced at but unsure. I did notice the bathrooms would likely not be accessible.

Its not like an area that I absolutely recommend, but hey, it helps for a little tourist area. The food was good, nothing more. It was doable for anyone who cooks a little. The atmosphere was a little old-fashioned, but hey, family and couples will be well received. Parking: Several free parking spaces Kid-friendliness: There are high chairs.

I ordered the Hamburger Platter with Cheese. Burger was good, but very basic, and definitely overpriced for what you get. The fries on the other hand are very fresh and crispy, which I highly recommend. Service was alright, though at times I felt the table was forgotten and went longer than I might expect for a refill of water. If you want a safe bet for some food, this place is a good stop, though I might recommend ordering seafood instead of the burger.

On the other hand I got the burger meal which I found to be the most overpriced for what you get. Food is t perfect, but it is great! The service and staff is superb and is a highlight of the restaurant. Overall I left the place happy and although it isn t perfect it is 100% worth it. Definitely the best in PEI for sure! Parking: Not often to find people, on top of that the parking is free!

It is an option for people with wheelchairs. (5/5)

Turkey was delicious, roasted and served with homemade mayo for a great sandwich. Potatoes were real. Fish was served with packets of tarter sauce and no coleslaw. Only one thing made me nervous and that had to do with the place settings. Tables were set for four, but many had only two people. The extra place settings were left on the tables for the next guests.

December 22, 2023

Went to eat at your restaurant this evening. It was absolutely terrible service and food. While waiting for my daughter to come out of the bathroom at our table one of the waitresses asked rudely if there was a problem as I was starring??? I was looking to make sure my child returned from the bathroom. The waitress didnt ask us if we wanted anything to drink besides the glass of water she served us. We sat for 30 minutes before our order was taken. Once the waitress served us she disappeared! She NEVER came back to see how the food was. The pan fried fish was wet and soaking in garlic butter and the mashed potatoes cold. A whole different waitress started to clear the table behind us and noticed our table was finished eating she asked if she could clear our table noticing my plate not touched she asked if i wanted a take out tray. I explained our first waitress hasnt checked in with us since she brought our plates. And since everyone I was with was finished eating there was no sense to take my food back and remake it. The lack of communication between the wait staff and customers was awful. The wait time was ridiculous. People who was seated after us was waited on before us and served faster. Totally disappointed.

December 22, 2023

Wasted our time . Was created and shown to a table this morning. Sat there for 20 mins and the waitress never returned. Everyone around us was seating well after us and was served within 3 min. We asked and said they will be with us in a sec. Again two more tables were seated we left. Went up the street to Samuel s coffeehouse. Their breakfast menu was as good or better. Don t bother wasting your morning at Chez.

This is the most disappointing restaurant I have ever eaten at. It is like eating at a school cafeteria but with restaurant prices. It is bland, flavorless, production line food.

We were a family of 13, including five children and a baby. A wide variety of food was ordered, with everyone fully enjoying their meal. Especially worth noting is the hot turkey sandwich, turkey club and seafood chowder. Everything was fresh, hot and tasty, with most of it homemade and local. The rolls, both white and whole wheat, are made on-site and seemed like they just came out of the oven. Sorry but you can t buy a dozen to take home. The servers were friendly and attentive despite how busy the restaurant was. Unfortunately, we couldn t stay for dessert. Having read some of the reviews below, I find it difficult to believe that the writers were in the same place. Dietary restrictions: Daughter-in-law had no problem ordering gluten-free from the menu. Kid-friendliness: Several other large families with young children, all welcome and treated nicely. Wheelchair accessibility: Ramp allowed easy access for baby stroller.

The atmosphere and service was good. The food was not good at all especially for the price. I ordered a crispy chicken dinner. The chicken was a frozen chicken slab. The fries were really good. My cousin ordered The hamburger platter. Not much to say about the burger. It was flat and had very little flavour or size. Really disappointing. My husband and other cousin ordered the turkey platter. It looked really good. However it was bland and tasted day old. As if it was the day before l. Can t prove that just it tasted old. The carrots were not peeled. Not a biggie but they did not look appetizing. Apart from the service (Shirley) who was lovely we were very disappointed. I don t mind paying a higher price as along as the food is good. That was not the case. I would not go back.

First, the waitress did not serve us our starters at the same time. My seafood chowder had time to cool before my partners dish was served. We asked him not to bring our main meal too quickly. Finally my partner had not even finished his starter before our main courses were served and placed on the table. Not very appreciated. The Lobster roll platter, this dish was served with fries on a hot dog bun (well, cheap) as a $25 dish, the price was really exaggerated. As for the burger for my partner, it was served on a burger bun which was also very cheap. I do not recommend this restaurant. They want to serve customers as quickly as possible to get as many people in as possible. When were on vacation, we want to relax, not be pushed behind our backs.

We had the best waitress! She was friendly, efficient, and delightful! The food was good... nothing out of this world. I found it a bit expensive. The lady on cash was delightful as well. After some chatting, we found out I was her music teacher for her class in Indian River, my very first year teaching! Also, she is a neighbor to my good friend Theresa! A great afternoon. The only down part was the regular hostess, Lorraine, was off & I would have loved to see her!

Decent brunch, quaint little place, open early! It worked well for us when we needed breakfast before heading on a long drive. We both had the Lobster Benedict and enjoyed the hollandaise sauce and the unique dish (we re loving anything with lobster on this holiday!), but found the lobster itself quite bland and chewy, perhaps over cooked. When we ordered it, we weren t asked how done we liked our eggs, but my husband politely asked for hard poached. The server replied, I think we re only doing medium right now, which we found really interesting. If the eggs are being cooked fresh, they should be able to prepare it to the customer s liking. It wasn t a big deal, just odd. Meanwhile, I think I overheard a different server asking a family at another table how they d like their eggs .

This is a restaurant thats been in Cavendish for a long time. They have a local reputation that is well deserved as we were referred to this lovely little place by a few people while walking around Cavendish. The food was very good, the service was awesome, and the place was spotless. I would go back anytime. They even sell some of the meat produced on the family farm right at the counter. Just a nice little place to eat.

I was on vacation in August and the 1st outing for dinner was at Chez Yvonnes in the Cavendish Tourist area. The food was delicious and the service was impeccable. I had the chicken burger and my girls (9 & 12) had the chicken nuggets. My sister and brother-in-law had the soup. All of which were fantastic. I can assure you that when we return to PEI on our next vacation - we will be stopping here for a bite to eat.

Nice outdoor patio. It was very busy as it was labor day weekend and lots of our of town visitors. Seafood was really good including the lobster rolls and seafood chowder. Fries and burger were just ok, stick with the seafood. Kids were happy with what was on the kids menu and they really enjoyed the dessert. Vegetarian options: Salads and various vegetarian options Dietary restrictions: Gluten free and vegetarian options Parking: Sufficient parking when we got there. It was busy at the time too Kid-friendliness: Good options for picky kids Wheelchair accessibility: Large ramp around the back for wheelchairs

I ordered a Caesar with high hopes because I had heard great things about Yvonnes and because I wanted a light faire. I got a basic plate of romaine, what tasted like store bought bacon crumbles, and Kraft dressing. I didnt finish it. Even I can make a basic Caesar dressing from scratch on a bad day and for $6 I could have bought a bagged salad for a better dinner in my hotel room. My partners meal of a hot turkey sandwich was better but still not really something he enjoyed either. Maybe they smash other dishes out of the park that the locals love and know to order, but what we ordered was just barely cutting it.

My partner and I went to this restaurant on September 6, 2023 for dinner. We wanted to eat a Sea Food Chowder. We were both disappointed. The soup was thin and there was very little seafood. This is the first time we have been disappointed that we chose a Sea food Chowder. The waitress and cook are responsible for serving a meal corresponding to the menu. Everyone knows that it is risky to return your dish in order to have another one. On the other hand, the service was good and the restaurant welcoming.

I ordered the pan fried haddock with new boiled potatoes. I got a small microwaved potato with a 3oz piece of fish and a few boiled carrots. 21 dollars plus tax and the tip added to your bill. My wife and I are both 50 years old and it looked like we were the youngest people in there. The young lady who Waited our table was nice and i do hope she gets the tip. The other staff acted like we were a nuisance because they had a tour bus coming in.

We were on one day tour of PEI, one of my friends recommend it. One of us ordered todays special, an old receptionist mentioned, It was a turkey sandwich with chicken soup. What a soup, it had terribly fish smell in the soup, with cold bread just with mayo,,, . After that, we recognize this restaurant is just for one time visit tourists, dropped off by the tour buses, they dont care of individual customers. We were there, almost after a group from a tour bus. We were so disappointed. Dont trust them !!

We had a quick lunch here after visiting Green Gables. My mother said it was the best turkey soup she ever tasted. Service was fast even though we arrived shortly after a tour bus. It was noisy when the restaurant was full, because of the large open dining room. There is a ramp at the back for anyone who has difficulty with stairs.
