“I've been to Milton Street pub about 10 times and it has always shown itself to be a fantastic place. It has a boat load of character, the food is some of the best in Nanaimo and all the staff are lovely. If you ever go and there is a hotdog/sausage special, get it! Get 2 as a matter of fact. Fatten yourself up on the deliciousness. If it's not on special anything else off the menu is still amazing. Reuben! Caprese! Salad! All amazing. I tip my hat to you ladies and gentlemen! Thanks for all the great eats and hospitality!”

I will definately be back!”

“I visited Horang to have lunch with friends who had recommended this restaurant. It was quite empty at midday, I did not notice any specific reference to Korea in the ambience. I ordered a Korean (spicy chicken) box. Food was ok, noodles were the best out of 5 different dishes in the box. Miso soup was good but difficult to eat with the kind of spoon they provide. Overall the food was ok but rather cool than hot. Service was ok, the waitress was helpful but rarely smiled. If I compare with Nori rest (same owner) the quality is much inferior, cheaper though, which was a plus. In summary, I rather recommend Nori rest in Nanaimo if you want to eat good Asian food.”

Our waitress didn't know the specials or what was on tap and didn't acknowledge us as we were leaving. Maybe hospitality will never get back to where it once was. The food was what we expected after reading other reviews and the space has so much unrealized potential.”

Tim Hortons 1812 Bowen Rd, Nanaimo Bakery • $

“My favourite location in town. Service is always super fast and friendly. Staff are well coordinated, take orders clearly and directly, and are always polite at the window. Tea is always hot and donuts are always fresh. Super apologetic when they're sold out of something. Just overall good energy and always worth going out of the way to come here. Inside is always clean every time I've been in, too. (The parking lot is a nightmare, but that's not the fault of the restaurant!)”

“Food is good. Service can be better.I think the owner wants to cut on labour cost that is why there were only 2 girls working during the peak rush hour.The girls were trying their very best but it is hard when your restaurant is packed with dine in, take out and delivery orders. Our order for just 1 cheese dosa came out in about 35 min after placing the order. I see many comments on staff being rude not smiling etc and it can be true if there's only 2 servers working suring peak hours.”

“I visited Horang to have lunch with friends who had recommended this restaurant. It was quite empty at midday, I did not notice any specific reference to Korea in the ambience. I ordered a Korean (spicy chicken) box. Food was ok, noodles were the best out of 5 different dishes in the box. Miso soup was good but difficult to eat with the kind of spoon they provide. Overall the food was ok but rather cool than hot. Service was ok, the waitress was helpful but rarely smiled. If I compare with Nori rest (same owner) the quality is much inferior, cheaper though, which was a plus. In summary, I rather recommend Nori rest in Nanaimo if you want to eat good Asian food.”
