Seafood chowder and lobster roll were fantastic. Fresh and piping hot. The view is wonderful as well. Ocean breeze and patio umbrella table finish the experience. Make sure you check it out on the way or after the lighthouse.

Had a fantastic time with a serene and peaceful ambience. The food really hit the spot and it was unlike any other chowder I’ve had before. The lobster roll was warm, toasty, and buttery and fresh and very filling. The employees were exceptionally nice and seem to really care that we enjoyed our time there.

Everything on the menu was delicious. Specifically, I know this because I tasted quite a variety of their dishes. My taste buds were tantalized with the seafood chowder and the clam chowder the traditional lobster roll. I would so recommend going out of your way to go to this place. The staff were incredibly kind. A waitress who also happened to be a photographer on the side took pictures for my friend and I. Lastly, you should go to this restaurant not only for the amazing food and staff, but the views are not to be missed either. Friendship paired with great food and beautiful views summarize the wonderful experience at this restaurant.

What an experience! Love sitting out on the beach with our food and drinks. Be sure to try the chairs for 2 all the way at the end of the deck (place your order and walk around the corner and walk past the tables). Just can't beat the views. We enjoyed the chowder and lobster salad.

On my gosh! My expectations of what we would eat here today were pretty low. A restaurant in a remote area that appears to cater mostly to tourists. My expectations were low quality and high prices. Thank goodness we decided to stop anyway. The food was out of sight good. My lobster salad was on par with anything I've ever gotten in any restaurant. My wife said her Clam Chowder was the best she had ever had. We spent a magical afternoon having our lunch on the patio overlooking the ocean. It was delightful in every way. Never judge a book by its cover it has been said. Thankfully, we stopped here. I certainly recommend you do as well.

Wow, this is my absolute favorite restaurant on the island. Everything is so fresh. We started our feast with the chowder, which is made with bacon. Next, the mussels, so good. Then my favorite, the oysters, they are so delicious. Thank you, Captain John! Finally, the Snow Crab, maybe this is my favorite! They were cooked perfectly in lemon butter they were so fresh and sweet. I still dream of them. Order and grab a seat. Enjoy the view it doesn't get any better. I highly recommend this restaurant. Oh, and there were only 2 of us, so order up! Thank you to the staff they were very attentive and wonderful.

Stopped here with my family (2 adults, 5 kids 5-14) shortly after getting off the PEI ferry. It was just what we were looking for. AMAZING food, BEAUTIFUL views and cold beer. We tried lots of different stuff on the menu (lobster melt, summer pasta, grilled cheese, oysters, clam and potato chowder, house salad, potato salad and coleslaw). Every single dish came out quickly, was hot and tasted amazing. I loved the atmosphere right next to the water. I would definitely recommend stopping at the Prim Point Chowder House.
