Customer Reviews

Great downtown location with entrances on one street and exits on another city block. Super spacious with tons of options for seeding whether you like a booth or sit down chair table or elevated dining experience it has it all. You're certainly not crammed next to another table unless you want to be. All of the servers displayed top-notch serving ability and attentiveness to the customer. We very much enjoyed the atmosphere and location and look forward to returning at some time in the future. The food was well prepared and fresh, however we found the portion sizes to be a little smaller than we would like. Food pricing seems appropriate for what you we're ordering taking into consideration the location in atmosphere. Great location for an intimate date night and or a company party, really that versatile. If you're looking for a great atmosphere for a night out on the town with your friends or special someone we would recommend this location. Hope this helps.

I'm glad I'm fat, so I could finish my big lobster. What a great restaurant; the food was delicious. The other people in my party had the halibut and the lobster roll; both were said to be delicious. Be sure to get the biscuits. The waitress was really nice and she stayed on top of things. You definitely don't want to miss this place. The dining room was great and the outside dining area looked great too.

I visited McKelvie’s Restaurant around 8:30 PM on a weekday evening, just before they closed. Having just landed from Toronto and staying at the Muir Hotel, I wanted to find some nearby lobster. McKelvie’s, the highest-rated lobster restaurant, was conveniently located right across the street from my hotel. Despite the late hour, there was ample seating, and I was seated immediately by the friendly staff. I ordered a pound and a half lobster, which took about 30 minutes to prepare. The server was extremely friendly and attentive, making me feel right at home.
