Blue Lagoon — Restaurant in Yarmouth

My recent visit to Blue Lagoon in Yarmouth was, without a doubt, the worst dining experience I've ever had in Nova Scotia. I should have taken the hint from the empty parking lot and the strangely desolate atmosphere, it screamed "we should leave" from the moment we arrived.

We waited over an hour for our food, only to be met with truly terrible dishes. To add insult to injury, we weren't even provided with basic utensils or napkins.

The "tantalizing combinations" were anything but. I was shocked to find a $10 extra charge for the lobster. It looked like this charge was primarily for the dollop of cream, not for any substantial amount of lobster. Even the waitress could see it! The menu is incredibly deceptive, giving the impression you'd be getting a whole lobster when it was just a pathetic, shrunken, overcooked, rubbery tail that clearly came from a frozen state. The stir-fry was not even mediocre; it was terrible, and my friend's teriyaki stir-fry looked disturbingly like gravy. My friend's steak tasted suspiciously expired.

We barely touched our food before deciding to cut our losses and leave immediately. We were so unsatisfied that we ended up going to McDonald's afterward just to get a proper meal. I deeply regret ever stepping foot in this establishment. Save your time, money, and appetite – go...

Kitchen Nightmare! We were hopeful when we arrived at Blue Lagoon, but unfortunately, our experience was disappointing from start to finish. The drinks and scallops were decent, but that’s where the positives ended.

When we walked in, most of the lights were off, and the place was completely empty- not exactly welcoming. We waited over an hour for our food, had to hunt down our own utensils and napkins, and the food itself was a huge letdown. The “Tantalizing Combo” was misleading- the lobster was more like a small, overcooked shrimp and came with an unexpected $10 upcharge. The “teriyaki” stir fry resembled mushroom soup in taste and appearance, and the steak was sour and clearly past its prime.

While our server was polite, she wasn’t attentive, and we left most of our food untouched. The final bill? $160 before tip, for a meal we couldn’t eat.

With a 4.8 star Google rating, we expected much better. Based on our visit, that rating feels very questionable. Save your time and money, this place is...

Don't eat here at any cost.

We showed up to what looked like an abandoned building lights off, dead silent, and zero sign of life. Despite being “open,” the chef apparently closes whenever he feels like it. The server was sweet but totally untrained, and the atmosphere was empty, cold, and uninviting.

Menus made no sense, including an unclear $10 charge for a pathetic lobster addition, bathrooms were falling apart, and we waited over an hour for food that tasted like it came from a gas station microwave. The table wasn't set with utensils and we needed to find our own even after the food came. Cold instant potatoes, stale bread, frozen seafood, and a “lobster” the size of a shrimp, which was tough, rubbery, and totally inedible. No flavor, no care, no excuse, and somehow it all added up to $160.

Save your time, your money, and your appetite.
