Recent reviews praise the food, especially the calamari with a very light batter and chunky pieces of squid, as well as the beautifully prepared chicken and steelhead with crispy skin and tender flesh. The dishes are served on perfect mashed spuds with lightly charred carrots, asparagus, and broccolini, complemented by a delicate red wine sauce. The restaurant also offers a small but well-curated wine list, including favorites like Pirrimimma Petit Verdot. Service is attentive and friendly, with staff ensuring guests feel comfortable, even when dressed casually. With convenient parking options, The Masthead remains a popular destination for fine dining in the Cowichan Valley.
