“My FAVOURITE restaurant so biased review. But honestly I’ve never had a bad experience at any OJ location. Unfortunately this has just changed - service was horrible, the food was unedible, and our waitress was having a personal conversation instead of checking on our food. I left so dissapointed.“

“I've been to a lot of tasting rooms, and was very impressed how this one was set up. When ordering a flight, you're given printed tasting notes for each of the beers, arranged in a suggested tasting order. Great selection to choose from (including products suitable for people with gluten issues, like my wife!)“

“Great service will be back cheers from Ontario“

“We are a couple of queer feminists and we went to see Arthur Simeon and Courtney Gilmour at Hecklers last night. Absolutely loved the entire show, laughed until our faces hurt. Kudos to Hecklers for bringing them in!“

“Thanks for your great service, delicious and generous meals today! Highly recommend eating here. The 17 never disappoints. Sometimes you have to wait a bit for a table but so worth it.“

“Wow I didn't even know this place existed and I'm so disappointed. What a great spot tucked away in the downtown core. The patio is amazing and the food and drink menus are a great mix of old school with modern twists. Perfectly executed. Can't wait to go back!“

“Tried a pilot mango wheat here, and it was delicious and refreshing, and very smooth with a strong mango flavor. Definitely needs to become part of the permanent summer lineup. I have had other mango wheat beers from different breweries and this was by far the best one. Clearly the brewer knew what they were doing with this one. The rest of the beer is very good too!“

“My partner and I came here on NYE, and had a great experience. No cover charge, a truly expansive and delicious local beer/cider menu (with unique flavours), and the staff was very friendly. The owner offered everyone NYE swag (kazoo, hats and so on) as well as free snacks (pork sliders, fruits etc) after the countdown. We had a lovely time and will certainly be back on another visit to Victoria!“

“Great staff and atmosphere ! The best view in greater Victoria also !“

“The managers and staff members always carry great hospitality which makes for an incredible atmosphere and the cooks always turn out great food. Love this place!! Lifetime subscriber!“

“Three of us went for the Dine Around menu and were very impressed with what we got for $35., an excellent value today. Everything was nicely presented on the plate, as well as very tasty. The choices for each course were excellent as well. The noise level in the family section of the pub was pleasantly moderate, a change from the usual LOUD!“

“I came here with my son-in-law gor a pint as he had been here before. It was a bright, sunny day, so when we walked in, it took a minute or two for my eyes to adjust to the darkness.
One of the claims to fame for Big Bad John's is the collection of bras that women have left behind in order to get a free t-shirt. By the looks of things, there are a lot of braless women wearing Big Bad John's t-shirts. And if you don't want to give up your bra, you can just buy a T-shirt. No men's underwear or jock straps hanging in the bar, so I guess there is no free t-shirt option for men!
We did come up with new names for the house band, such as Uncle Whiskey and the Dusty Bras or Whiskey Dick and the Dusty Bras.
Besides all the Bras, there is paper money all over the walls with messages and names of past patrons. There is too much to read in a single visit. Salted peanuts in the shell are in small plastic buckets 🪣 at each table. Eat the peanuts and throw the shells on the floor. The occasional surprise for newcomers.
This place needs to be a stop for cruise passengers!
It is a great place for beer and peanuts 🥜“

“live music....come on...so good.“

“Chicken and ribs were great but steaks were salty, poorly cooked and dry (raw then overcooked dry). Staff was excellent and we've had one great steak there (last year) but now the bad steaks outnumber the good and they now marinate in what seems a salty smoke marinade. Ribs were great though... and service was excellent.“

“Good food and service. Enjoyed oysters and fresh sardines.“

“We decided to try this place to get away from regular everyday sushi. It is amazing, all the dishes we ordered were perfectly made and tasted amazingly fresh. The place is a bit more expensive but it is worth it.

Also try out the Corso Sweet Potato Amber beer. It's really good.“

“After playing a recent show at the Wicket Hall, I am more than happy to share my experience… The staff and managers on all levels of the establishment showed true professionalism and went above and beyond to make our event a success! Hope to return soon again . David , Mojo Risen…. A Doors tribute …..“

“My sister and I enjoyed dinner at Milestones Our waiter, Gabriel was wonderful and the host who sat us offered us a choice of seating, which I appreciated My sister enjoyed the salmon dish and I the blackened chicken pasta, both delicious meals“

“the Gnar Gnars freaking love the Phoenix and staff!!🤘🤘🤘“

“Service was outstanding, food was delicious, loved the playlist - think Erykah Badu slipped into a playlist with bbno$ & Kendrick. The music was not loud (I think that was a problem at their last location but) the level was totally talkable for a nice evening out with my husband. I’m loving this new trend of amazing food served with Michelin level service in the most laid back casual setting where my husband can wear crocs with his nice outfit and I can come in with hair my baby just yanked out. Anyway.. I guess what would’ve pushed for five stars was a little darker lighting and a candle on the tables. The food does warrant a bit of la-di-da.

Our server was on point - he knew about the dishes we asked about and helped us decide. Loved him. Super friendly and made the vibe feel less pretentious.

The chef came over and told us exactly what was in our dishes (we asked - there was some “fish sauce salt” in the herb salad - so freaking good, that little nuance of *chefs kiss* something wonderful).

We ate: Brussels sprouts (fifteen seconds too long in the pan) with miso and tahini and pomegranate arils (what a combo); chef Etienne’s pig head broth (wowza!! Yummo - could eat all day) with buckwheat noodles and pigs head); sticky Asian trotters with potatoes, spicy jus and lovely herb salad; an exquisite Syrah; bread pudding with rummy caramely goodness (not pictured).

Go here!“

“Best wings and Ceasar salad in town.“

“the best service!!!!!
Had a terrible first experience here and it left me flat out not wanting to return with my business. I’m a local photographer and often take clients for meals in order to consult prior to bookings. Needless to say my first experience ended up costing me far more than just a meal. However, I decided to take a chance and return tonight as some considerable time has passed and might I say HOLY SMOKES. Our food and drinks were delicious and fairly priced, and our server Anna was an absolute gem. She was extremely kind, very attentive to our needs without being overbearing, and quite honestly the way she interacted with us made us both feel like family. She was honestly just the sweetest thing. Thanks to this incredible young lady’s amazing service, I will 100% be returning on a more consistent basis. So happy this eatery is a part of our community! 5 stars.“

“Easily my favourite place for music, drinks and dancing. There are tables and games but it's all about the dance floor and atmosphere. If there's a band or a theme night, you might have to wait in the line, but it usually moves quickly.“

“enjoyed our dinner at the Keg. Service was good. The only issue worth mentioning is the edge of the prime rib, which I found bland and
tasteless. Other restaurants I have eaten prime rib at have used a rub on this area and when cooked it has great flavour.“
