Billy's Seafood Co - Saint John

This restaurant offers amazing, high-quality seafood at affordable prices. It is popular among the locals and is conveniently located at the entrance of the indoor market. We ordered the Schellfisch and were pleased to find that the portion was so generous that we ended up sharing it.

Food was delicious and service fast and friendly. Lots of seafood items to choose from and it was a very tough choice to choose the item to eat. Lobster roll was amazing fresh, delicious, on a handmade roll. Would come back to try...the po boy or the lobster Mac n cheese. Seafood is extremely fresh.

This restaurant is decent, but not outstanding. I was a bit disappointed as I had higher expectations. The appetizer of shells was lacking in flavor and was a large portion. For dinner, I ordered the lobster with scallops added on, served with risotto that was poorly executed and had a mushy consistency. The scallops, however, were delicious and the highlight of the meal. I probably won't return, but I would still suggest giving it a try.

During our cruise stop at the port, we visited this restaurant. If we were locals in St. John, we would definitely be regulars here. The staff is extremely friendly, the food is delicious, and the prices are reasonable. Make sure to try the Seafood Tower - it's a perfect option with a variety of seafood that can satisfy four average appetites. If you're looking for some entertainment along with excellent service, be sure to ask for Buffy!

I'm very disappointed with my dinner and evening at Billy's. It always had a good reputation and I was very excited to celebrate a special opportunity in the restaurant. I booked days in advance, and when we arrived, we sat at the table that was next to the open kitchen and next to the bathroom. When I asked for another table, I was quickly released and said that the other two available tables were already taken aside, no one occupied these tables all the time we were there). Not a big start and it certainly a damper on the atmosphere; but we stayed positive. When my red wine arrived, it was warm, but my friend's beer was good. He ordered the lobster dinner $55 market price) and I ordered the salmon. The lobster dinner was good and came with soggy vegetables and about 8 pommes. My salmon was tasteful, but it and my vegetables were lukewarm and my risotto was cold. I was very disappointed. Our bill came just under $200 with tip I tipped 20% because the server was good... not excellent as it was pretty busy, but good). What should be a beautiful evening with great food ended sub par. Saying we were kidnapped is an understatement. I never go back.
