Canadian Restaurants near Brentwood Bay, BC

“High tea was perfect in all regards. Excellent service, beautiful setting, and unique sandwiches and dessert items. Pricey, but lived up to high expectations for a special experience where you can then also walk through the beautiful gardens.“

“Always a special evening to dine at Butchart Gardens. The food is creative, delicious, presented attractively on the plate. The service is always terrific and the ambiance, both of the house, that now serves at the dining room, and the views to the Gardens (or spectacular Christmas light display this time of year) makes for such a memorable evening.“

“Truffle fries were nice, sushi was good, chicken wings were tasty. Seafood chowder, however, was too thick and had an off taste. Service was good. View was pleasant. Unfortunately, we were seated among a number of other groups, and it was quite loud. We struggled to understand each other.“

“This was our first experience with Ugly Duckling and we were very impressed with the knowledge of the staff explaining how each dish was made, including the particular wine pairing. Each dish was a work of art and enhanced the taste experience along with the processes used for creating the delicate combination of flavours. The atmosphere, the staff's cheerful, elegant engagement with our guests, and their patience with our "foody" friend that wanted to learn of every detail of every dish was sooo appreciated. The intimate, calmly paced serving of the many dishes was such a treat to truly enjoy the whole experience - the restaurant atmosphere, the educated and friendly servers, including the chef visiting our table and cheerfully engaging in our foody friend grilling him for more details on the dish preparations was such a welcome and new dining experience for the four of us. Included in the experience was the restaurant following up by phone prior to our reservation reconfirming specific food alerts for one of our guests, and the surprise special birthday presentation to one of our other guests was the perfect ending to an amazing experience! BRAVO!“

“Absolutely loving the new early hours!!!! 7am opening makes it possible to grab some awesome food prior to work!“

“Everything was home made and incredible. I had the charred broccoli sandwich & it was perfect. I will look forward to my next visit.“

“Located across from the British Columbia Museum Mary’s is the ideal stop after visiting the museum. Great foods, fast service and fun atmosphere“

“I visited 1450 Douglas St in Victoria for a casual dinner with friends. The place wasn’t overly crowded, which was nice since we had a group of ten. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, and the staff were incredibly attentive—our server made sure our drinks were always filled and offered suggestions without being pushy. We tried several dishes, including the duck wings and beef tartar, both of which were fantastic. Portion sizes were generous for the price, making it a good value. The outdoor seating was perfect for a pleasant evening, though I noticed that indoor seating could get quite busy during peak hours. One small suggestion would be to offer more vegetarian options on the apperitif menu to cater to a broader audience.“

“Had an amazing experience last night at Earls. Everything was 💯 from walking in. Our server Shelby was incredible, never missed a thing and had all the right recommendations.“

“I can't say enough about how totally satisfied I was with this restaurant. I will be back for more sampling of the delicious menu choices that my family and I enjoyed. Thank-you for renewing my faith that gatherings for a good meal, great service and a pleasant atmosphere can still be found. I'm sorry to say that I can't remember my hostess' name, but thank-you for an enjoyable evening meal.“

“Delicious food prepared in Cheffy’s own kitchen, good selection of British food, very convenient when cooking isn’t an option, great variety, inexpensive (the fewer visits to the supermarket, the more the savings), the menu changes each week and friendly, helpful staff. Hint: Their delicious scones, with a different variety every week, are very popular and sell out quickly, so it’s a good idea to order them early in the week. 🥮“

“We went around 2:15 and got a table right away with the knowledge that it was reserved for 530. That was absolutely fine.
Our waitress GRACE was so amazing and friendly and there when we needed her. I enjoyed having such a happy, friendly server. Also there before we needed to be refreshed.

Thank you Grace for just a great experience!!!.“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I had the absolute pleasure of celebrating my birthday last night at the rooftop patio at The Met, and I’m still buzzing from how incredible it was! 🌟

They were hosting an amazing Mexican themed party, and it just so happened to be my birthday talk about perfect timing! From the moment we arrived, the staff went above and beyond for everyone, but especially for me. They were constantly checking in, making sure we were comfortable (even bringing us heaters when the wind picked up!), and truly made me feel so special.

The food was fantastic, the drinks were top-notch, and the atmosphere was full of energy and fun. We even won prizes, enjoyed free food and drinks, and to top it all off — they surprised me with a birthday cake. 🎂

I honestly can’t say enough great things about this place. The staff made the night unforgettable, and I’ll absolutely be back. I’ll also be telling all my friends because if you’re looking for a fun, vibrant, and welcoming spot for a celebration or night out, The Met’s rooftop patio is it.“

“We had an amazing experience at the Alpina Restaurant. The restaurant is well appointed and the view is stunning (even with some rain and clouds). The food was absolutely outstanding (especially the beet salad) and we enjoyed literally every bite. Both our servers were very good. It was fine-dining level expensive and worth every penny. Was perfect for our anniversary celebration. Definitely recommend!“

“Just go it’s very awesome“

“Went to milestones for there winter creations and they did not disappoint the short braised beef was yummy the apple porkchops was amazing highly recommend but the best part the cherry on top was the maple syrup creme brule it is soooooo good best dessert I've had all year they need permanently add it to the menu definitely recommend the dessert over everything but everything was yummy and the drinks and service were great“

“Stopped by the bar about 30min before closing to grab a quick take out of BLT salad and soft pretzel bites. Since I was one of two customers in the bar service was pretty darn quick.

Once we got what we ordered we left and ate along the way home. The BLT was mostly iceberg lettuce, not a fan and a small bit of bacon stuffed into a corner, a bit disappointed. The pretzel bites were fine except the sauce was not for me, I'm sure it would be acceptable for 90% of people, but for me it tasted a bit off.

Aside from the food the service was fantastic. Freindly and helpful. Think I will swing by next time I'm in town when I can spend some time to soak up the atmosphere and enjoy a proper meal.“

“Always delicious food! Service is good too.“

“Love it here!!! Fantastic hotel for prices and staff are so friendly!“

“Great place for locals and tourists alike - couples, families, friends, workmates, whatever, good food, good beers, and plenty more besides. Along with a couple of flights of beer, we had the Kafka-esque hot dog and the Mustard Pickle Grilled cheese with pulled pork - excellent! Pictures in the Comments below…“

“This was a great find. Datenight was good. Great service“

“love their food and drinks. if you haven't gone. you must 🤤🤤🤤🤤🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻“

“We are quite happy with Boom & Batten. We love the food, the view as well as the atmosphere, for the most part. One of the issues is what makes my husband feel uncomfortable while we are trying to enjoy dining. The choice of music is not suited at all to fine dining. It is so unpleasant that my husband asks to leave as fast as we can & at times, he prefers another restaurant. We have mentioned it few times but nothing changes. Gentler music would enhance our experience considerably. The other disappointment is mine. I love the grilled cauliflower for either breakfast with two poached, for lunch with the beet & goat cheese salad. I enjoy it for dinner as well. The unfortunate part is that the portion I am served lately is barely more than half of what I was served a mere 6 mos ago. I am always left wanting more.“

“Perfect start to a beautiful day!“

“😀We had a absolutely wonderful experience for lunch. Chef Mohammed is terrific!“

“We did a private event for 38 people at this restaurant and it was exceptional! I would highly recommend this venue for a small wedding, corporate event or private celebration. Ellie (event planner) and Grant were fantastic and helping to make sure that every little detail was taken care of from the canapies, to the drink selection and food. Everything was exactly as we had dreamed it would be. The food was excellent, the servers were exceptional and Ellie made planning so easy. The flowers at the venue were beautiful and we appreciate Grant making the effort to assist us with planning our entertainment and having the Bluetooth speaker available. Everyone enjoyed the evening immensely.

Thank you so much for making our 30th anniversary so memorable! I have tons of beautiful, colourful photos… But can not share because there are people in the photos. We had the patio in the evening with the fire going and they had the buffet set up inside …everything was amazing. They even had a large bouquet of fresh flowers in the bathroom.“

“We just had lunch legendary burger and fish and chips at the White spot which we have missed so much. The waitress "Jade" was so amazing, fun, respectful, efficient, just plain happy which certainly cheered us too. Food was excellent and what big pieces of cod too. Thank you, we will be back“

“We invite different pairs of friends out to get to know them better over lunch a couple of times a month after church on Sundays. We have never been disappointed. For years our main waitress was Barb. She's retired now but Leslie is doing a great job being there always and the others give us good service as well. Great food, friendly service, reasonable prices, convenient parking, clean surroundings. Great place to dine!“

“This is my first time at this location and the staff were so sweet specifically Peggy. I had my son with me and I wasn’t able to eat so she offered to hold him so I could enjoy my meal. I’ve never felt more seen as a mom. She deserves a raise. Thank you Peggy for making my meal so enjoyable❤️“

“Decent place to come for a meal. Nothing amazing but everything is good. The burgers are above average and the steak was rather chewy, but cooked nicely. Objectively I would give white spot food 7/10. Staff was very helpful and friendly 10/10 for staff. The deserts however are amazing! The apple pie and peanut butter cheesecake amazing 9/10. Come to white sports just for desert“

“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!“
