“We were a group of three for lunch yesterday. I had been going to Greek restaurants in Vancouver for 40 years before I moved back to Ucluelet. The wonderful experience surpassed all of the past ones with the best authentic lamb souvlaki and tzatziki, exceptional service and welcoming atmosphere I have ever experienced. Huge kudos to a truly destination restaurant.”

“On a brief trip to Nanaimo I was so pleased”

“came to this bistro for the first time on March 22, 2025 for a surprise 70th birthday for a family member. Found the setting comfortable, the staff knowledgeable, friendly and the service top notch. Ordered the platter for two and it was so good, the calamari was the best!! Our table numbered 15 people and all food arrived hot and all family was eating at the same time. This bistro is amazing!! As we travel to Gabriola Island fairly often, we will be stopping here for dinner again!!”

“Hands down one of the best Brewery’s we’ve been to on the island!! The beer was fantastic and the food amazing! We had two kids under 4 and can confirm very family friendly. We will be back again and again”

“I went for lunch with coworkers and we ordered our food ahead of time so it would be ready shortly after getting there as we only had an hour. We had to wait about 25 min after arriving to get our food, which was disappointing. I had the jalapeno burger with a gluten free bun. The bun was very good, but the rest was a little bland. I don't know where the jalapeno was supposed to be in the burger (I think maybe the jam?) but I couldn't taste it at all. My side salad was quite good and I enjoyed it more than the burger. The atmosphere was very nice and we enjoyed ourselves overall. I wish I could give 3.5 stars, as I'm not quite at a 4, but I think 3 is too low. Maybe I just need to give it another try!”

“Excellent friendly service paired with delicious food. This has become a regular spot for us. Delicious every time!!!!”

“Mille Grazie! Your food is always magnificent! Not only did you fit us in without a reservation on a busy weekend night, after I called the wrong restaurant; but you gave us a wonderful table with amazing staff! Very special mention to the Ceaser I enjoyed before dinner! Highly recommend it! May you have a wonderful 2024! You always make your guests feel like part of the family!”

“delicious pizza, they’re special of the day is often very creative and tasty. I have not had a bad slice and I’ve had many slices at this shop. The staff are always friendly and their service is quick and efficient. Not only are they great for stopping in for a slice but I’ve also bought full pizza pies and always delicious. I’m a big fan of their pepperoni because there’s lots of pepperoni on the pizza. Lots of other places, cut stuff up so small and make it just blah, but this place knows how to do it right.”

“the absolute best ! always fresh and always tasty !! our favorite go to.!”

“🍕 I always buy pizza in Kindersley, Saskatchewan. Honestly, it's one of the best pizzas I’ve had in a while! The crust is perfectly balanced—crispy yet soft at the same time. The toppings are fresh and bursting with flavor. I will definitely be coming back!”

“⁣ Tucked just off the main strip at Departure Bay Beach is: Felice Cafe ⁣ There’s so much character inside you can’t help but grab a seat with a hot coffee (americano for me this time) and take in all the personalized touches. I had a chance to chat with the owner, who shared that from opening up the space with renovations, to the hand-drawn details and décor, he and his partner did it all themselves. ⁣ If you haven’t been yet, head over to Departure Bay Beach, pop into Felice Café, and treat yourself to a hot bevvy and a cozy spot to sit!”
