Billy’s Seafood Company in Saint John

Epic alone dining experience , great treat for myself.

The highlight of my NB adventure was Billy s seafood tower! So much so that we went back for a second round before we left! The Caesar salad, scallops with bacon tomato chutney and the seafood tower its self was the exact meal we did twice! Corey our server was on top of making sure our drinks and side dips were full. For those of you wondering he spoke perfect English and French as well. All around very impressive service with a very formal yet relaxed environment. Classy enough to dress up but not too classy for a classic lobster bib! The Seafood tower was like something you d see on a movie or tv show! The tower had lobster, king crab, scallops, oysters and muscles piled high! 4 of us finished it but it could modestly feed 6! This is the place to eat for sure!

Great service great price

Had an amazing breakfast today at Billy s! Food served fresh and hot and coffee was perfect We had an amazing and sweet server named Gina who is so courteous and great at her job!! Will definitely go back and next time try the seafood:) Also the restaurant is very beautiful inside and so clean!

Great spot for a dinner with whole family. Service was excellent Had the whole lobster dinner and OMG it was amazing. We ll be back for sure! Thanks for a great evening

Was just walking by and noticed this place. I cannot say enough. The service was amazing. Food equally amazing!! The Caesar wow highly recommend!! Dietary restrictions: Dairy allergy. They were amazing at accommodating to me.

Their greek salad is very good.

We enjoyed lunch at this facility. I had shrimp, it was excellent.

Good and fast food. Excellent service and centrally located next to the market. #ContestEntry

One of the best seafood restaurants Ive been to so far in NB. The best lobster roll EVER. Everyone that works there is super friendly.

Great lobster roll, my friend enjoyed her fish and chips. Nice decor and our server was excellent!

Our server Cory went way way way above and beyond! Such an incredible time! and the food was spectacular!

To cut a long story short, we were overwhelmed by the delcious quality of the various dishes we had. It was our first time after three weeks of a tour through eastern Canada that we enjoyed the art of cooking of such delicate ingredients the country has to offer. Prices are not low but more than adequate compared to what we have gone trough throughout our entire 30-day journey. Congrats to the highly motivated staff of this fine dining place!

We got the lobster dinner and made it a splash which means added the mussels, shrimps & digby scallops. There was barely any shrimp or scallops in the mix. The mussels was a huge miss ...had lots of sand. Terrible to be eating and then chew sand. Lobster was not spectacular at all. No value for money spent. We took the ferry to Digby,NS and ordered same whole lobster dinner and digby scallops...much much tastier & better .

Very good fish and chips. The large Feta was excellent. The server was also incredible.

Very good oysters and seafood stew.

Oysters were excellent. Service was ok. Crab cakes were cold in the middle and the haddock in the fish and chips was gummy and bready, not a lot of fish. You can do better.

Amazing seafood, paired with equally amazing service...

Natalie reminds me of what customer service used to mean. So hard working and attune to the needs and wants of clients. THEN the food came! Oh my! Amazing all around. We had half a dozen oysters, the chicken thighs, and the lobster roll with the seafood chowder. Absolutely fantastic!!! Please check it out as I am sure they are suffering due to the nightmare construction right out front of the building

Halibut and shrimp linguine were great dinners. The feta salad was nicely dressed but very, very light on feta given its namesake. Service was very good.

Asking the waitress if its better to tip in cash. Then finding out after paying the check that they already charged you a tip in the bill. So the watress made 62 dallors in tips. I will not go back just for the fact she didnt say that gratuity is added on to your bill I felt taken advantage of. Next time I look before I pay.

Beautiful restaurant with calm atmosphere, excellent food but still expensive

What a wonderful and delicious lunch. Had the Seafood Chowder and Grilled Salomon with Vegetables. Great taste and quality service.

Great service. Really good food, clearly made from scratch. Delicious. Would definitely recommend

As always, such a treat!

Stopped by here for lunch on a work trip to St John and this place is a must visit when you come here! Outstanding food and cool environment!

Raw oysters were great!

Awesome staff!! Great meal, will be back!!

We came to St John by cruise ship. This is about a 5-15 min walk depending your speed. There is a slight incline a couple of blocks. Easy to get around construction .BUT WORTH IT!!!! Food is quick, fresh and tasty!! Very affordable! Met owner very personable and friendly!!

Awesome place, great food and service!!

Where to begin? The food! Everything, and I mean everything on the menu is delicious. Out of everything, the crab cakes are absolutely to die for!! Wonderful service, beautiful atmosphere, and without a doubt one of Saint Johns gems. Billy himself is a phenomenal person and lovely host. 10/10

I rarely give bad reviews, but this place deserves one. Way overpriced for what we received. Made the mistake of ordering take out. Our lobster dinner was one 1 1/4 pound (max) lobster over a few soggy mini potatoes for $60. It was advertised as market price and it was our bad for not asking what we would get and how much it would cost. The other food we ordered had small portions. If I would have checked the order before leaving the restaurant I would have left it. I do not recommend this place.

Always check this spot when in Saint John. Favourite for seafood and service.

Stopped in for a late dinner with a friend. We enjoyed the oysters, crab cakes, chowder, scallops and the shrimp Alfredo with lobster. Everything was delicious and cooked to perfection. Our server, Natalie, was super friendly and gave amazing service. Would 100% recommend dining here!

It was mostly empty on a weeknight, with max 4 tables filled with small parties at any 1 time. There was only 1 server/bartender with no manager and 2 underage hostesses. While the lobster roll was great (but tiny), the whole dinner was ruined by the 20+ minute wait to pay when we had the credit card out. Nice server, but we couldnt tip when we had only enough cash for the bill and didnt have energy to wait to pay by card by then. We get the understaffing wasnt his choice, but he couldve been more efficient in several instances. The management couldve trained the hostesses to bring out waters and handle the payment. Also, when I called to make the reservation, I asked for a window table, which they promised to try, but we didnt get one despite a few open. Very poorly run all around.

Stopped by on a Thursday night around 7:15pm . Plenty of open seats at the bar but we were told they wouldn t be seating until around 8pm. Went elsewhere to kill some time- Tried to call 3 times but no one answered the phone so we walked back. Walked in at 8:10 and were told it would be another couple of hours. So, can t review the food unfortunately, but the service standard leaves a lot to be desired. Found another place that was absolutely amazing in EVERY way- Italian By Night- absolutely amazing service, food (calamari), and ambiance!

We had reservations and walked into a mostly empty restaurant. We asked to sit near the window but were told by the manager that the table was reserved (we were there for 2 hours and that table remained empty). I was told that the house can was good and asked for a sample. I didnt like it and asked for the other cab. After a search, I was told that wasnt available. I asked about their draft beers (the menu says that they have a selection) and was told that there was no draft beer. On ordering food, I was told that they were out of one of the salads and all of the soups and one of the 3 desserts on the menu. The salads were good. It took over an hour for our entrees to arrive and when they came, they were adequate but nothing special. At the end of the meal, the server asked how everything was and I indicated that there were several things that I was less than pleased about. The manager came by to apologize but she sounded irritated and was defensive. I gave the service 2 stars. our server was fine but the manager managed to bring my overall feelings about how I was treated down by at least a star and probably 2.

The restaurant had good reviews on Google which is why we picked here, but I have a hard time agreeing with a 4+ star rating. We were here on Friday night, it was busy but it wasnt packed. It was busy because there were only two (three wait staff if you count the hostess who was also serving tables). The staff were running all over the place, frantic, trying to keep up. They did a good job but could tell that they were exhausted and annoyed. We sat at the bar that had no bartender. The servers were the bartenders. They kept piling the dirty dishes from the tables next to us on the bar, I get it, they were busy. Our waitress was friendly and made it clear they were doing their best. The food: we had the mussels, seafood chowder, salmon entree and the halibut with Korean noodles. Everything was great besides the halibut dish which was absolutely drenched in teriyaki and soy sauce. It was practically a soup that had way too powerful of a taste that took away from the fish. The fish was prepared ok, which I ate and I left the drenched noodles to be taken away. I think this place could be good if they had enough staff and did good quality control on their dishes before they left the kitchen.

If you are owner of this restaurant, please pay attention to host and service! The food is super delicious and deserved 5 starts, but service could be better. The host could not offer a proper place to seat us immediately despite plenty of empty seats. I observed the same situation with another clients during the dinner that had to beg her to be seated. I didnt understand the problem at all. As for me during that evening the restaurant lost a good part of revenue. The epic of the evening was a bottle of sanitizer and rag on the reception near the entrance....

Unfortunately didnt have a great experience. The staff is so slow (understaffed) and not the friendliest. The pasta did not taste like a pasta and there was barely any lobster on it.

After several decades of living in Saint John, I have never been here. No idea why, but just never happened. I still remember when Billys had a fish stall in the market, Ive been to just about every seafood restaurant in the city so I dont know why I never tried this one. WOW what a mistake that was, the meal was about the best Ive had. Every thing was delicious. Our waitress was very observant and friendly. Kept checking back and making sure we wanted for nothing. Our whole party was happy. I will definitely be recommending this place to anyone looking for good seafood. And the prices were not bad. Much better than other restaurants we have been to recently. Id give them 50 stars if I could.

It was an incredible restaurant. The local beer is good, the food is fresh and excellent and our waitress Nathalie was just very nice. I absolutely recommend

The entire experience was a huge disappointment. But if the manager had bothered to come talk to us, or given instructions to cancel the Lobster that was overcooked and cold and almost inedible- then I would give them another star for trying or wouldn t be writing now- Highlights - 1. Waited 10 min to get water ( or any attention) 2. Had to move because of rowdy (drunk) guests 3. Food was served while still waiting for drinks 4. Too many honey and sweetie from someone who could be my granddaughter 5. Main dish was served with no cutlery- had to get up and find someone to bring us silverware 6. Salmon portion was smallest I have ever seen anywhere in the world - and NOT the cheapest 7. Risotto was tasteless 8. Lobster- well- if we weren t there so late- would have returned it - vs getting 25% off a $60 dish that was awful Paid $212 for 1 glass of wine, 2 beers, 2 starters ( shrimp & tuna - that were good) and the main courses . This is after the discount and with a tip. Think twice before going

My parents and I ordered the mussels, which were delicious. My mom ordered the parchment-cooked fish and it was the smallest portion size I ve ever seen in a restaurant. We honestly thought something happened.. like maybe the cook forgot to put an entire filet in? My mom also said it was quite bland. I ordered the salmon and it was fairly good but again, tiniest portion of salmon I ve ever had. The waitress was lovely. Overall I would not recommend based on value.

Great restaurant: excellent food, very good service. The food is well prepared and the lobster is cooked just right! Best lobster roll Ive eaten, and very good salads and white wine.

Seafood chowder was amazing and waiting staff is very friendly!

Great food and even better service from Cory. Chowder soup was amazing. Lobster roll and shrimp burger were fresh and tasty. Food : 5/5

I visited Saint John on a holiday with my Daughter, one of our first lunches was at Billy s for their recommended Seafood Chowder and it did NOT disappoint!! The flavour almost melts you into your chair! We were made to feel super welcome by the amazing staff. We went back a few days later for dinner and it was amazing too! Special shout out to Buffy who made both visits amazing she treated us with kindness, laughs and wonderful spirit! Thanks for being part of our journey! We will never forget you! Highly recommend Billy s if you visit Saint John

Loved the lobster roll from this place!

I highly recommend Billies. We enjoyed the food and atmosphere very much. Service was a bit slow as 8 tables were seated at the same time. The staff let us know it would be a bit of a wait for ordering so communication was good. We are on vacation so it was ok with us. The scallops and lobster sandwich were very good. Location was great right downtown.

Great food and drinks

Great service, delicious lobster roll and fish chowder. Nice atmosphere.

I went to Billys anticipating great food, but the service is what made it memorable. The fish and chips were delicious, and the coleslaw was excellent (as someone who doesnt even like coleslaw). My daughter was having a tough day and they made sure that she left smiling with the warm hospitality. Highly recommend this place!

First time visit, although we come to St.John for weekend getaways often. Food was great, atmosphere was nice, but casual. Server was top notch, he was serving, bartending, hosting and clearing tables all solo!! He didnt skip a beat!

Great service, the food Is the best. And the prices are reflected in portions and quality. This place has been around longer than any of us. Parking: Id personally park in at 30 charlotte. Its paid Monday to Friday 7 to 5 . But after that so long as you stay out of private spots youre alright.

Great place for dinner

Great food, and very Friendly staff. Wife had the Lobster Roll and I had the Clams. MELT IN YOUR MOUTH CLAMS.. And the Lobster Roll is best we had ever had.

Couldn t ask for a better place! We ordered a lobster roll and the clams both dishes were fantastic. So incredibly fresh, the service was top notch so friendly we are from out of town the staff offered suggestions on things to see and do around St John. Don t pass up the chance to eat here!

had the scallops, lobster roll and seafood chowder. all were very delicious, low key but homely tasting. staffs were friendly and attentive.

The waitress was very friendly. We loved the crab cake and the blueberry crumble. However the lobsters were overcooked. For the price it was very disappointing.

Food was great, my wife had the Halibut and was impressed, my kids had fish and chips, which are also excellent. We even had desert, which is unusual for us.

The restaurant is nicely decorated, the staff is very kind and smiling. The food is delicious! We had a delicious evening!

The best chowder I had in all NB!! Also, great service in a beautiful and cozy environment.

Meal was very bland. Fish had zero flavour. However the service was excellent. The waitress was very friendly.

Just got home after we had dinner at Billy s. While eating we already imagined that this place will have 1 star ratings. Turns out: it s true. Just like any other great place, this one too had (or did not have but they reviewed anyway) these few customers who were obviously having an incredibly bad time. For us and obviously for most of the other people, it was just fantastic. We are tourists in the are, in fact in the whole country and we were treated exactly like anybody else. Alex made us feel welcome, was attentive and the service in general was absolutely fine. I don t know why people complained about the prices. To us they appeared absolutely reasonable and you pay what is stated in the menu. Just like in any other restaurant in this world. And yeah, they might have a shortage on beers on tap but if that s your first world problem, you better stay home. There are many other beers to choose from and the food is amazing! Highly recommend the Chowder, the warm lobster roll and the fish and chips.

We couldnt even make a reservation. I gave up after being kept on hold for more than 15 mins. Oh well.

the food was small, outrageously overpriced and bland. no taste at all. i felt like i was eating cardboard, but even a cardboard would have more taste than what i was served. will never come again

The place was great and so were the staff

Best seafood chowder around! Looking forward to our next visit!

Very accommodating staff. Not rushed through your meal which makes your experience so much more enjoyable. Lovely meals. Cooked to perfection salmon.

This was my first time eating here. I was greeted with a warm smile and was helped through choosing the different options for my order. The sandwich was very good!

Gross. Our food was bland, over-cooked and luke-warm. They only had half of an already small menu available and had almost nothing on tap. If you are running a skeleton crew during winter, at least reflect it in the prices. $200 for three people (only two drinks on the bill) is outrageous for what we were served. If you are going to serve food that tastes like it came pre-packaged from Cisco then price it accordingly. Minimum 18% tip option (with the tax included in the total) is tacky.

This became our favorite spot while in town for a couple weeks. We must have gone here a half dozen times. The food is incredibly good, service good and atmosphere good. Would definitely recommend visiting. Conveniently close to the rink, market and mall.

Wonderful experience, best seafood in the area

Crabcakes and lobster

My best restaurants so far in Saint John. Seafood and oysters So fresh and we have the honor to meet Billy a true gentleman. The Ceasar salad was the best I ever taste. We had a wonderful night and the wine list is affordable either. My best recommendation for saint John NB Greetings from Quebec City and Toronto

Was half a lobster roll. I don t want to order a half lobster roll. I would have paid double, please give me a whole lobster roll. The roll was literally cut in half. Fries were cold. Same person was the waiter, bartender and matre de.

Underwhelming for the price. Service was nice.

Went here on NYE, amazing food. They most certainly know how to make a Steak Blue Rare

Was ok.

Our experience was a good one. We absolutely loved the food. Best lobster weve had in New Brunswick so far.

I had the scallops; to die for. I had the oysters; juicy. I had the clam chowder; hearty. The server and bartender were great energy.

Excellent food great IPA. Good value.

We had a wonderful time there, the manager Cara was more than amazing! She managed to sort out the table for us, and made sure we were comfortable to every details. Seafood was really fresh, Spinach dip was worth dying for.

Chowder was tasty but more like a soup in consistency. Ordered their Chilli rubbed Salmon with peach, red onion & avocado. It was bad. The salmon was slightly overcooked and the skin was soggy. Peach and avocado were both pretty unripe. The salmon did not pair well with the sides. D Was disappointed for the price. It looked like their other dishes were better (with some issues like unevenly cooked pasta). Id avoid their Chilli rubbed salmon. Service was good. Not the servers fault.

Had great fettuccine pesto w shrimp

Located centrally in Saint John, a good site for seafood. Wonderful Seafood Chowder. Rich and full of flavour with just the right mix of seafood. Oysters were fresh. Both my lunch companion and I wish we had ordered more than the 6 we shared. The main entree I ordered, Lobster roll was a disappointing dish. Green onions overpowered the lobster, which was sharing the fresh bun with too much mayonnaise. Much of the lobster taste was masked over. Crab cakes were recommended and did not disappoint at all. Service was slow and inconsistent. Will be back to have the Oysters, crab cakes and that wonderful seafood chowder.

Best seafood I ever had!!! The oysters were fresh and delicious, the calamaris good but a bit too spicy and the seafood medley simply delicious!!! The service was great. A must try in Saint John.

Good food, great service.

Being the novice tourist, we showed up for dinner without making a reservation. Shannon didnt chastise us, but rather took our name & number for a table later in the evening. She called us to inform us our table was ready before our time and placed us at the best table in the house! The great service continued with Becca, who was a delight. We met a very nice couple sitting next to us while we enjoyed the appetizer menu with seafood chowder, steamed mussels, oysters, ceviche scallops and a beautiful salad...apparently were hungry and would love a return visit to savor the fresh seafood. Next time I will remember to make a reservation ! Thank you both Shannon & Becca for a memorable time.

One of our best meals in Nova Scotia. We had to go one more time before leaving Canada.

Amazing food and super friendly staff. One of the best seafood place in the city

Disappointing is an understatement.

We took the ferry from Digby to St. John and arrived at our hotel late in the evening. After seeing recommendations on social media, we decided to dine at this restaurant. Billys food is beautifully crafted, and the seafood is excellent. We highly recommend trying the Digby scallops, which are a local specialty. Unfortunately, the mussels were sold out, but we still suggest giving them a try!

Food was excellent! Great place to stop in for a tasty seafood dinner.

I eat out often and this restaurant rank high in my opinion. Experienced staffs and chefs. Good presentation eye appealing. Tasty and fresh. Keep it up.

My daughter and boyfriend had the lobster dinner and I had the clams. This was the absolute best seafood I have ever had, the clams melted in my mouth. They thouroughly enjoyed their lobster and our waiter was top notch.. afterwards when I went to pay for the meal I got to meet Billy and he was very personable and we joked around!! Will go back when we visit NB everytime!! Thank you for the amazing experience. Not sure of my servers name but he was great and I gave him the tip he deserved!!

Service was good. Restaurant was nice. Food was very bland every dish had no seasoning. Seafood stew tasted like plain tomatoe soup, no spices or flavour, same with the seafood medley and even fish and chips. Strange that no seasoning on any of the dishes. I assume the chef isnt tasting dishes.

Excellent meal at Billy s tonight. Had the mussels and spicy calamari as our apps. Then had the seafood stew and lobster Mac&cheese as our entree s. Both had tons of seafood. Glad we stopped in while we were in town.

Lovely restaurant and amazing food, delicious this place never disappoints

Billy s Seafood Company was a great restaurant if you want seafood! They had a great atmosphere and it made you really ready to eat! Food was great (especially the bacon wrapped scallops - picture below) They got very creative with their food and they made a Traffic Light Scallop Dish (picture below). It was great however food took a long time to arrive as they were so busy.

All good a real seafood resto

I had the seafood pasta and it was fantastic! Lobster, shrimp, scallops and creamy garlic sauce what more could you ask for. There was no shortage of real (not the croutons served with it, its not enough) garlic bread to reach heaven. But despite that 5/5!

We made reservations ahead of time and waited a long time to even get a glass of water. Finally, the waitress came over and said that we probably knew what we wanted since we d had time to look at the menu. We waited an hour plus for our food. My parent s lobster roll was skimpy all together. Mostly bread. My pasta/scallop dish didn t taste freshly made. There were four rubbery scallops. At least the male bartender offered us some bread after the first 50 minutes of waiting starving with a toddler and two elderly people. It was by far my most frustrating experience on my trip. They didn t charge us for two beers which didn t seem sufficient.

Waiting over an hour and 15 minutes to get food. Waiter came over to tell us it was going to be another hour. We left.

Excellent place for dinner in Saint John! Fresh ingredients and tasty meal. We had a good time there, and really good value. It s right beside the fish market. The atmosphere is cozy too. Great selection of menu, we had fish and Caesar salad, and scallops fettuccine, and both are amazing! Highly recommended and will come back for sure if in town next time!

service was great, food was a little expensive for what you get. found the stew to be bland and scallops to be overcooked. poutine was salty. mac and cheese was dry. fried clams were great but its hard to mess that up. Food : 2/5

Loved this place! If your a seafood lover and want a nice meal with great service come here! Ideal for lunch or dinner Thank you for the experience Food : 5/5 |

This place was a total rip off. I finally found the place to leave a nasty review like my nasty food. DO NOT tell them that you are a tourist. I was craving some Seafood and of course before I ordered the waiter asked if I was a tourist. I m not sure why I said yes. I order the Seafood Chowder which says it comes with Lobster. NO LOBSTER in my water lobster broth. It s an insult to call that a chowder. On top of that the bill was outrageously expensive. Let me go to a grocery store next time and drink a box of lobster broth for $3 and not $30. This place was a joke hopefully no one orders that water broth. I Would tell everyone to avoid this place because of that shady business practice that day. Spent over CA$100 for 2 people.

We stopped in for dinner. For appetizers, I really enjoyed their chowder and my son loved the trio of scallops with 3 different sauces. For the main I ordered a scallop pesto dish. I got shrimp ! They corrected the error and gave me a 50% discount on that item .

I thought that the seafood restaurant on the seaside would be very cheap, but the two of us ordered two lobsters and two glasses of beer, which turned out to be as high as 285 Canadian dollars. It is really not worth spending so much money in this narrow, crowded and noisy restaurant.

Food was just ok. Didnt wow but wasnt bad. Service was slow, waited half an hour for the food.

Great service and really good seafood at a fair price.

Very good big lobster mussels shrimps

The lobster roll was smaller then the ginger breads gum drop button. Not really worth the hype personally, they also add green onions to their lobster roll . Nasty but i high recommend making the trip to spinnys in st martins it s wonderful on every level

After the failed first visit (the chowder was great but the lobster roll was too salty and chewy, and the dish my wife has was very bland, both the consistency and the flavor) we lowered our expectations, and went for simpler dishes. The fish and chips was top tier, among the best we had. Big portion size too, my daughter went for the two piece and brought home half the plate. Fish tacos were good too. And the Pesto Pasta was a great surprise. Im not a fan of pasta, but it was just spot on. Scallops were good too. We will be returning.

Waiter was hofell did not give are drinks right both wrong when you say 6 o.z its not 9oz,glass of wine,and a I.P.A draft beer is not a Alexanders Keiths beer bottle!

Very good, very friendly server and excellent lobster! Kid-friendliness: Yes there were children in the restaurant

Everything was delicious. Hostess was friendly and our waiter, Cory was excellent.

Avoid the seafood chowder. Thin milky broth. Very little seafood. Not worth $21 for a bowl

Good quality fresh food. Bring your wallet :-). Good seafood is not inexpensive. Corey gave us great service. Ill come back again if Im ever in st. John. Food

Fantastic fish and chips. The batter was perfect. Service was great and our fam had a great time.

Great place and great people there.

Food was amazing I had the pesto pasta with scallops, they were perfectly cooked and the pesto was really good Lobster roll was good Apple and blueberry cider was nice Service by sharron was lovely and fast

Kid-friendliness: Cardápio kids

Oh lordy, they do not skimp on the seafood .. so good

Great food in a central location. Too bad about the empty construction site in front of the patio.

We came to the restaurant with intentions of having a great seafood lunch but this turned out to be the worse time. First we waited to be seated for ever even though there was hardly anyone in the restaurant then. The host seated us and all we ever got was water 20 minutes and still had never seen a waiter or waitress finally we just walked out because no one ever came to our table terrible service

Was looking forward to a delicious seafood lunch. The restaurant was not busy and yet it took 10 minutes to be seated. After waiting 20 minutes to have our order taken we left without service. I cannot rate the food as we never got to taste anything. Thoroughly disappointed.

After waiting at the door for an extended time we were finally seated. The only thing we got to taste was the lemon water. No service was given in a 20minute wait. Restaurant only had 3 tables including our table and 1 outside Walked out and went to the food market were we given better service from a taco vendor than a highly rated restaurant. Boo to billys you can do better!

Drinks were great, service was good, atmosphere was cramped but inviting. Seafood stew; the seafood was well cooked, rice was tender but the sauce to tie everything together was neither Cajun nor spicy. It was basically uncooked tomato puree. Fish tacos; fish was cooked well, veg/fruit was in large chunks and way to over powering. Again this was way underseasoned.

Too expensive. Order large lobster roll $49, but get a small size lobster roll.

Fish was great, fries were unfortunately very heavily seasoned and far too plentiful which detracted from the fish and chips experience.

Good food Good service.

Lobster roll was delicious, but overpriced for a large . Everything else was kind of bland, and service was slow.

Food was decent - their lobster roll in particular is delicious (one of the best I ve ever had)! Unfortunately dishes were a bit overpriced and small in portion. Service wise, while the staff was kind, I felt some things could be made more efficient. Many tables sat idle / empty with reservation times while we were seated, and food was sent out slowly. Waiters needed to prepare drinks on top of serving customers which created a bottleneck. Be prepared for a long wait time as a result (1-2 hours).

From the welcome to the plate and the bill, a treat. The pesto pasta and the house crab burger, a beautiful plate, very tasty and in quantity, a super friendly waiter who even dared to speak French with us. Thanks to him it was cool. A beautiful address not to be missed

Wonderful food and service!

It was a long wait for food that was less than mediocre. The Cajun dish was dull and watery, and the chicken dish was flat tasting and dry. The waitress didn t even ask why I left most of the dish behind. This restaurant promised way more than it delivered. Not recommended.

The appetizers (spinach dip and bacon wrapped scallops) were delicious. We did not wait long for the food to get served. However, my cajun seafood stew is kinda bland, scallops and fish are hard, and it seems overcooked. Big servings, most of us, we can not finish each of the whole plates. Kid-friendliness: Theres a list for kids menu.

Out of Lobster Rolls. Fish and chips were okay.

We were greeted immediately with a smile. Seated as soon as available. We had the large lobster roll, ceviche, crab cakes, and chowder. Everything was so amazing, both presentations and a party to the palette. Succulent lobster, flavorful ceviche, dreamy chowder and the crab cakes were fabulous. Service was fantastic. A must go to in St. Johns Bay.

Well deserved position as one of the best sea food options we could find in our visit to St. John. Service was lacking a bit but I think it was bad timing - mid week mid day? The neighborhood is a bit sketchy. Ive never been to a place with so many mental health needs on display. I ordered the lobster dinner and the partner had the rolls. The appetizer was crab cakes. All around great flavour, good price, and we left feeling satiated.

Highly recommended. Great food and atmosphere. Seated and greeted right away with a smile.

The lobster roll was unreal, one of the best meals I ve ever had. Go for the larger size.

Weve searched high and low for the best lobster rolls. This is hands down the best. The seafood chowder was amazing as was the crab cake. Its not the fastest but definitely the best. The wait staff was wonderful, and we visited with the owner while waiting. Dont miss this place or you will be sorry.

Absolutely delishious food. Everything was so perfect.

We had an excellent meal after visiting the market.

very good and fresh seafood in generous portions and with friendly service

Delicious seafood crowder. Go try it!

Best lobster roll ever!!! My husband said seafood chowder was incredible too Service was top notch and establishment very clean! Food

I went there after seeing the good reviews online. After eating it, I really felt like I didn t know where these good reviews came from. I want to tell you from personal experience, don t be fooled! When we entered, the waiter glanced at us without any reaction. We took the initiative to greet her, but she said something coldly and waited. In fact, there was only one table of guests in the restaurant, and the other tables were all empty! The lobster roll has a little bit of shrimp stuffed inside, and is served with a little stale vegetable salad. The fried fish is mostly made of flour, wrapped in a small piece of fish, and the taste is just acceptable!

Decent meal, decent service. Nothing amazing. Salad was overdressed but tasty.

Great Lobster Roll!

Food and service was the best Ive ever had, everyone spoke to us, super friendly and the food was absolutely amazing, the scallops were as big as a baseball and not all breading either!

Food was very good. Hostess was amazing but waiter was not great - never asked us about drinks and we had to ask for bill. I understand they are busy so I tried to be patient. Just did not feel like a welcomed customer. Food

Delicious ! Our Lobster Mac and Cheese was very well cooked! The place is friendly and the service great! Thanks again to our server for being kind enough to make the effort to speak French! Beautiful address!

Amazing food, nice staff, quick service, and a great overall experience. The fish and chips was a huge portion and golden delicious, their Lobster roll is very fresh claw meat. These folks are pros but also reasonably priced.

Good lobster roll and fries. Service was prompt. Venue was clean and comfortable.

I asked our taxi driver for recommendation for a seafood restaurant, he recommended Billys seafood with confidence. The service, food and atmosphere are excellent here. We tried some appretizers and main courses and four of us shared. Highly recommend. Servers are friendly and efficiency.

We had a special celebration with a table of 12. Our server was wonderful and the food was great. We didnt feel rushed and each course was nicely paced. We had a nice evening.

After reading lots of reviews, First lobster roll was here. Mayo base, buttery rolls, lots of lobster, great slaw and fries as a side. All was super fresh and delicious. Inside city market so it s very convenient to find. Save yourself lots of research and enjoy.

I usually choose there a called Planked Salmon , which I appreciate - sometimes followed by a dessert and a scope of icecream

Recommended by Holiday Inn. Both quality and quantity were satisfactory. Food

Servers is great. Food just ok

**Wow** Forgot to take more photos, the one doesn t do the flavour justice ! A lovely lady greeted us at the front door and sat us at the bar, highly recommending the seafood chowder as an upgrade to a side dish - a great way to try it with your main dish. We starred with the seared scallops delicious!! Some of the best we have ever had for sure. For lunch we each had small lobster roll, opting to upgrade to the chowder as suggested. Both were absolutely delicious I could have eaten an entire bowl of that chowder !

food was disgusting. Ordered fish and chips 2 piece . 2 orders got door dash because we are from out of town and were at the hospital all day. The batter was so doughy, Hardly no fish, and greasy . The fries were cold , small and didnt seem fresh. For $70 it was unreal! Dont recommend.

Vegetarian options: No options for vegetarians other than fries. Recommended dishes

Fantastic meal, wonderful service, and a very welcoming atmosphere. Will definitely be on the top of our list for date night....

Beautiful date night. EXCELLENT food. Portion sizes are generous. Beautifully decorated for the holidays.

This was the best seafood chowder I ve ever eaten. I really liked how they put the mussels on the top of the chowder. Service was good and everyone enjoyed their food. I d really like the recipe for the seafood chowder!!! I could eat it everyday.

The service was prompt and friendly. The halibut was excellent. Nice atmosphere. Overall excellent experience and great value. Highly recommended.

Service was terrible. We almost left for Grannams because we wanted seafood
