This was the first time that we’ve tried Lobster and Crab, and it was an awesome experience. Well cooked and seasoned food. Seafood chowder was full of flavour and i think it can be a best choice of starter to include during cold weather.

The place is beautiful; I loved the decor and the atmosphere. I must say our server, Patrick, was excellent. The food was good, but the calamari and bruschetta were too sweet for my taste.

We ate on a tuesday for lunch. There was no wait for a table and we had a great view overlooking the harbour. Cozy and warm atmosphere. Great service and above average food. Pretty much on par in regards to pricing for the downtown area.

Its been a long time since I gave a place a 5 start rating. This was a surprise all around, great food, great service and a very nice atmosphere. We will definitely go back again. I suggest reservations as it was booked even on a cold snowy winter evening. Although the signage leading you to the restaurant was easy to see and directed us clearly the walk through the rather bleak parking garage concrete structure to get to the restaurant entrance was well interesting. The washrooms are outside the restaurant and again across the hall and part of the parking structure although they were accessible and fairly clean. Overall a great experience and nice evening out.

We walked in around 5PM & it was surprisingly busy! Brought my boyfriend for his birthday & when I looked online there was nowhere to make a reso. The hosted asked if we had one, I said no there wasn’t anymore to make one on the website, then she said you have to call in.. very inconvenient & not well advertised! Anyways, we got a table luckily.
The website & Instagram said they had happy hour but apparently only at the bar? Again, not well advertised. Our server was very nice & offered us our first drink at happy hour pricing. We ordered a couple margaritas which tasted a little watery but otherwise good.
We ordered the steak sandwiches with mashed potatoes & baby potatoes which saved the day! Absolutely delicious! The steak was cooked perfectly. Highly recommend!

This is my second time at fish exchange, i had fish and chips the first time. It was good, not memorable. I decided to go back and try the crab legs, which were absolutely devine and the cajun butter was perfect. My entree however, a tuna tartar was bland and not cut properly which was a disappointment. Id go back for their crab legs. My friend asked me to take a lobster mac n cheese to go for her. The waitress said it was her favourite thing in the menu… wish she’d had mention that when I asked her what were the most popular things on n the menu. I tried the mac as well, ill know what to oder nxt time!!! It was delicious.

The waitress was pretty helpful! She knew what she what dish I specifically asked about, and did a flawless job with the CAPTAIN’s SEAFOOD PLATTER! If anyone is looking forward to have a taste of what the Fish Exchange Offer, you should go for it!

If you’re looking to have a good seafood experience with a good atmosphere, it’s worth the wait. It’s Saturday 7pm and the wait time for sitting at the bar is 40mins to 1hr. We didn’t have a reservation, walked in and put our names on the wait-list. We waited 50 minutes and sat down at one of their high tops. The place is very busy and the staff are quite friendly and hospitable. Ordered the lobster and shrimp pappardelle and overall was tasty but didn’t have much of a seafood taste. Unfortunately we found our seafood portions to be quite chewy. Overall would return.

The atmosphere and ambience was nice.

I was disappointed with the food. I ordered the seafood linguine and for the price charged, the serving size was small, had minimal seafood and I found the flavouring was plain.

The drinks were good, they had an interesting beverage menu for local flavours/twists. I ordered the Newfound 75 and enjoyed it.

If I were to return, I would stick to drinks and appetizers.

We wanted fresh Newfoundland lobster. This is the place! It has a somewhat large menu, not that it’s a bad thing.. just that there were SO many items we wanted to try.

Ultimately we ordered the Mussels in White Wine sauce and Ahi Tuna tacos for Apps, mains were Seared Halibut and Whole Fresh Lobster. Everything was full of flavour and a good portion size. The only hiccup of the night was when we found hair in my vegetables, which was taken care of instantly and without question.

The atmosphere is a decent dim lighting so you can enjoy the views of the harbour yet still eat abs maneuver through the restaurant.

Overall I highly recommend SJFX and will make sure it’s a stop on our next adventure to St. John’s.
