    Food good but not outstanding considering prices. Staff very pleasant. Unbelievably loud inside so conversation almost impossible.

    Great service. Appetizer dim sum was not hot and seemed it was made many hours ago. Rest of meal was very good.

    Expected your average fish and chips pub experience but was pleasantly surprised. The mussels in a white leek sauce were hot, prepared well and very good, served with a crusty sour dough. Waitress suggested the bison carpaccio which I was hesitant about - after all, I was here for fish- but it was fresh, paper thin, and melt in your mouth delicious. Truly the highlight of my meal. Great recommendation. Fish was crispy, tender and the perfect ratio of seasoning and batter. The people across from me were raving (their entire meal) about the Thai Coconut Curry prawns (which was my backup choice!) and the garlic flatbread was fresh out of the oven, perfectly seasoned and crispy with air pockets, perfect for sopping up the delicious mussel sauce. Service was very good and I was seated close to a window, so I had a lovely view. Great experience.

    This was our second time at Finn's, we sat on the main level the first time and it was really good, this time we were on the lower level and it was not the same vibe or ambience - next time I will request the main level. Food and service was very good.

    The soup, mussels, oysters, tacos, and tuna poke were delicious. So was the dessert- the jar of blood orange sorbet. We had a nice table beside the window at the front of the restaurant beside a fireplace. The staff were friendly and professional. If you want mussels, this is the place to go.

    I love this place! The service is amazing, as is the food. The menu provides a great selection for every palate. The wine list is limited but, again, provides great choices for all budgets.
