The food and cocktails are a hit with guests, and the flow from ceremony to reception feels effortless.“

He made excellent recommendations and kept our drinks filled without being overbearing. In a fast-paced environment, Rob made us feel like valued guests.

“We were staying at the hotel while my hubby had heart surgery and ate there our first night. THE FOOD AT ATMOSPHERE IS AMAZING!! The second night I made an order online but accidentally pushed the Westshore location...(I'm in Saanich) when I was pointed out my mistake the young man up front went to talk to his manager Jenn! She had my order ready so fast! No questions asked! It was very busy in there for a Wednesday night! You guys are awesome. Thankyou again! We will be back to the hotel Accent Inn and Bin 4!“

“This is our second time at Claudios and it is so delicious every time. The carbonara is my absolute favourite. The steak, brussel sprouts and tiramisu are also fantastic.

“I had a small party of 30 hosted on the mezzanine at the Watson. Service was 10/10, food was great, drinks were great as usual, and everyone had an amazing time. Mike and Sean were easy to work with to coordinate the event, and the price was very reasonable. I strongly recommend the Watson for any future events.“

“Friendly and welcoming staff. Great drinks which are reasonably priced especially at happy hour which is daily until 6:00. Happy hour drinks all come with two pieces of fried chicken (regular only, and with the first drink only) which is a pretty impressive deal

I like the lighting and overall comfortable environment

I've only been in for happy hour but I've never had to wait that long“

He explained us all the cocktails and techniques they use to make the drinks which made our experience very special. Camel milk clarified drink we would’ve never thought of trying. Amazing service amazing vibe definitely coming back soon!“

“The first time I came here there was live music playing which was beautiful and I really appreciated the vibe. Drinks are great and creative. Second time I came though the music was just a little loud for the atmosphere of a chiller classier bar so that was just a little off putting but overall a great time and would come again!“

“We came for a good bye dinner with our team. Our company closed and Glowbal was selected by numerous recommendations from our other colleagues. It was an amazing atmosphere and definitely super-tasty food. When the time for dessert came, our beautiful waitresses came with our ordered sweet cake with “Happy Unemployment “ writing on the plate. It was a bittersweet moment for all of us but our mood instantly switched to laughter and we almost forgot the cause of our gathering“

“During my visit to Hyderabadi Biryani House with four friends, we had a delightful dining experience that truly showcased the restaurant's expertise in traditional Indian cuisine. The garlic naan was a highlight, with its soft, fluffy texture and rich garlic flavor that perfectly complemented the meal. The veg dum biryani was equally impressive, offering a fragrant mix of spices and perfectly cooked rice that provided a satisfying, hearty dish. The veg curries were another standout, with their rich, aromatic gravies and fresh vegetables that delivered a burst of authentic flavors. The meal was a fantastic experience, with these dishes standing out as the stars of the evening.“

“I had the butter chicken for lunch and it was delicious! 🌶🐓 cant wait to try their other dishes.“

“I give this place five stars across the board, but it deserves more than that. The service was amazing, the food was absolutely wonderful, and the chef even went above and beyond to accommodate for our diet restrictions. The atmosphere is also something else entirely. I would 100% come back, and recommend to a friend.“

“What a great place to go for a drink.
Big selection of beers. We had a flight of 3 beers from Changing Colors all were delicious. We were suprised the flights were so big, I think they were 14oz.
This place has great atmosphere and vibes and was definitely a highlight of our bar experiences. Will definitely return.“

“absolutely 💯 the food, service, and room are all amazing“

“Amazing food 10/10 heard about it from a friend, will definitely be back“

The portions were generous, the flavours are like nothing I have ever experienced and the cocktails... Run don't Walk to Zarak. Special mention: The service was great. All the staff were attentive, informative and happy. What a treat. I will be back!“

“Was here with a friend tonight for happy hour. Amazing food and ambience. Staff was super chill. Bartender / Server was great. Manager (pretty sure he was the manager) came over and introduced himself to us. I’m definitely coming back. 5 stars, no question 👌🏾“

“Phenomenal food. We both got the chef’s tasting menu & everything was very well thought and executed to the littlest details. We were served by Max & Andrew, both of whom must be passionate about what they do from what we could tell. My guess is that if you’re into delicious food, you’ll find your way to Suyo’s door.“

“Tasty food and best service ever.Especially service from Crystal.“

“We came on a weekday and the restaurant was packed. Got seated promptly as we had reservations. The service was average, probably because everyone was super busy with other tables.

Food was good! Some dishes were a little too salty for our tastes (which seems to be a theme for Savio Volpe as well...), but we enjoyed the bread and pizza a lot. The portions were good sized, with enough for leftovers.

We would come again, but probably only get appies and pizza.“

“La comida es muy rica, combina y disfruta“

“If you're like me, a unique cocktail lover who wants some quality but uncommon ingredients, this is a great place we discovered. After a little tour and tasting experience, I left with some spirits that will be making a debut in home cocktails this holiday season. Including: 1. Port barrel Wallflower gin. Very unique 2. Strawberry gin, (using real local strawberries for flavouring) 3. Creme de Cassis perfect in champagne or on ice cream (this will be fun to experiment with) 4. Smoke & Oak whisky (nice depth, no mix required) I discovered it's under new ownership and management, their impact is already beginning to shine through, I know I'll be returning to see even more of the "upgrades." Sit and sip cocktails inside where you can see the stills while being served by knowledgeable (and creative) staff.“

“Wonderful dining experience. Savio provided our party with excellent friendly service. The atmosphere was very pleasant. The food was hot and delicious. Many thanks to Savio for his kind attention to detail. Savio's service was top notch. He really knows how to make customers feel at home. Will definitely go back for more!“

“Enjoyed the food and waitress! Make sure you eat all your dinner if you want dessert! Enjoyed it so much we went back 2 nights later! Might be good for my waistline I don’t live nearby“

“We visited last Friday night and have been there a couple of times before. This place never disappoints, but this visit was even better thanks to our server, Viviriana. She was very engaging and made the experience feel special, even though we had been there before. The atmosphere is amazing, the cocktails are perfectly crafted, and they offer some great snacks that pair really well with the drinks. We’ll definitely be back again!“
