“I have celiac disease and I asked for my fish to be grilled it was fantastic! Well seasoned and moist! So many places make the fish sooo dry and Devin rocked it!!! Oh the chips were really good too !!”
“My husband and I had dinner in the restaurant for our anniversary. All of the food was really superb, the wine was great and the server was lovely! We left nicely full and took some dessert home for later. Just a really nice room and a great vibe. Happy we discovered this place so close to home. We will be back :)”
“Stopped for coffee, a muffin and a sandwich on a road trip heading up to the Cathedral Grove old growth Forest. The coffee was flavorful, the muffin was fresh that morning, and so was the sandwich. There were a few tables in there with locals solving world problems.”
“Wonderful experience. Great location. Relaxing atmosphere. Friendly service. Tasty food. Nicely presented. Reasonable prices. Highly recommend.Two consecutive critiques- the tap water might be skipped. The starters and drinks came quickly. The mains tool quite some time to arrive.”
“Best subway experience I've ever had! Barry & Abhi are awesome.. They gave a hoot and made beautiful sandwiches for us. Thanks for having passion for your work.. it shows! New owners. We'll definitely come back ?”
“We pulled off the highway to get coffee and fell in love with this little coffee shop, great coffee, baked goods, and lunch items. All delicious!! The rustic atmosphere, grass courtyard, and fun & friendly service all made it a perfect stop. Highly recommend visiting Rusticana Coffee :)”
“I attended Brentwood College School a few years ago, and this was honestly the only place around the whole town where I really enjoyed the food, not to mention this was the only asian restaurant around. Their food is honestly very good, and I'm not saying this just because this was the only sushi place around. Even compared to other sushi restaurants in Victoria or Vancouver, their food is just as good, if not better. I have tried most of their menu, and there was not a single menu that I thought was bad. Not to mention, the staff is extremely friendly and welcoming. One time, I visited just to ask for a little bit of red pepper paste that I could not find in the local grocery store, and the staff gave me a ton of it FOR FREE. It has been a while since I was able to eat here, and I honestly miss it so much. Thank you for the great food and memories!”
“I just wanted to give a shout out to your amazing young staff working tonight Feb 22nd @ 7:30 pm. Was so impressed to see how well mannered & hard working they were! The best Dine In A&W experience I’ve ever had! Exceptional service & the best teen burger! Way to go team!!!”
“This is one of the best McDonald's I've ever been to. The food was amazing and the staff went out of their way to be friendly and kind. I would make this a destination not just another McDonald's.”
“It's Timmy 's. What can I say. They claim their coffee is always fresh and it is. My granddaughter loves their earl grey tea. We use the drive thru nearly every day.”
“Absolutely delicious savory and sweet preparations. Incredibly fresh bread, and attention to detail of the food. Service was super, Pilar our server was delightful. Nice variety of teas, and located right next to the beautiful Italian garden. Will definitely go back.”
“Although I am not exactly the target audience for an English Tea room, I have to say that Butchart far exceeded any expectations! Although we have been to the Gardens many times over the last 4 decades, this is the first time that my wife suggested that we take “High Tea” before our stroll through the amazing gardens... And of course it proved to be a wonderful idea as I relished every bite and sip (we also had the 3-glass “taster” which paired with the food nicely)... I will absolutely be taking tea on our next visit!”
“Visiting from Toronto after a friend brought back delicious biscotti from her trip to Victoria.However upon arrival found the shop closed :-( . So sad to hear this.For future vistors this shop is closed.”
“Absolutely incredible lunch here! Kayla W made our entire day with her above and beyond service. We were so grateful to have her as our server. We all said this was the best experience we’ve had in years. Food and drinks were perfect. We will definitely be back again, thank you for making this day so very special!”
“Happened to be in this area, and stopped by out of curiosity. Came in with no real expectations. I grabbed a breakfast sandwich, and it was truly one of the best breakfast sandwiches I’ve eaten. Everything from the toppings to the bun was on point. Will be back next time I’m in the area.”
“Very sweet staff, attentive service and the best Thai food. Better than any Thai restaurant we’ve tried in the entire lower mainland! Great gluten free options too!”
“Gluten free household here! We've tried every gluten-free pizza in this town and hands down, this crust was so good, we worried we got the wrong pizza! Created our own BBQ chicken with that garlic pizza sauce ... speechless. Price comparable to anywhere else you'd get a dry, thin, from-frozen GF crust at $26 before taxes and delivery fees. I can only assume it was made from scratch in-house - doughy, soft, crispy, and holds shape even with loaded toppings. Only waited probably half an hour for it to arrive through Door Dash. Y'all doing the Lord's work for Duncan's gluten-sensitive! I'd give it 10 stars if I could - we'll be ordering again for sure!Dietary restrictions: (See above) - gluten-free crust available in 12" size, which is more than enough for two people.”
“Love the beers and their quaint little tasting room. We came during the winter, but would love to see it during summer. Even better was that it was walking distance from our AirBnB that we were staying at.”
“Some of the best bread I've had recently, and their sandwiches are always delectable (although often large enough to send me into a food coma afterwards.) Good coffee, too.”
“Crystal & her staff have an amazing little cafe. They are very personable & make you feel welcomed.The food is always packed with flavor & It’s never a disappointment when we get lunch or snacks.The price is very well worth what you get. I would suggest this place to anyone wanting real food with sustenance & made with passion/love.Great job ladies & thank you for being here for the community”
“Great beer made by passionate and creative brewmasters. The food is really delicious and the prices reflect their desire to make their warm and comfortable atmosphere inviting to everyone. The whole family is always welcome, even your pooch can tag along and enjoy their pet-popular patio. They even have cards, books and board games for those who are so inclined.All of the Red Arrow family I have met thus far have embraced me with a refreshingly thoughtful and friendly demeanour. Each and every one of them have proven time and again their willingness to go out of their way to appease and provide the best experience for me and my friends.Today I witnessed ‘Big Dog’ go the extra mile and then some - when he didn’t even blink at a customers request to bring one of the books home to finish. As I said, the Red Arrow is made up of a family of great people who are always going to put you first.”
“Creamiest ice cream I've had in a long time. Cute store, lots of nostalgic candies, they have bubble gum candy machines in the back. Of course, we had to get quarters to buy those 5 secon flavour bubble gums that you can only blow a few bubbles before it gets so hard it locks your jawsRum & raisin was my poison of choice ?”
“Very nice spot with top notch service and excellent food. Very pleased with the meal we had there, the chicken and duck confit dishes we're prepared perfectly and presented with very tasty sides. A lovely little spot with a great view onto the bay.Parking: There are a number of parking spots immediately in front of and beside the restaurant, which is very handy since on-street parking can be very tight in that area.”
“We hired Fresh Tandoori Indian Restaurant Royal Oak to do our event catering. They went above and beyond our expectations and the food was delicious the presentation of food was done very beautifully. I would highly recommend them for your next event big or small.”
“Do yourself a favour and stop here for lunch. The food is unbelievably flavourful, the portions are generous and the service is impeccable. The highway makes it too noisy to enjoy a meal outside but there are plenty of places nearby to stop for a picnic. We went for the first time today and will without a doubt go back.”
“I'll be honest, it took a few cups, but the unique flavor of Drum Roaster coffee has grown on me. I love sipping a a cup and sitting on their patio in the warmer months. A very community feeling atmosphere.”
“New favorite spot in victoria! If u like cider and want to have a good time with friends and family, this is the spot. Great tasting cider made right here in our backyard.”
“One of my favourite places! Delicious food, friendly staff, and thoughtful displays of unique gifts and cards combine to create a great meeting place. Today’s featured deluxe grilled cheese was perfect comfort food.”
“This is probably my favorite beer on the island, being from England,the beer reminds me of some of the beers I had back home. Love it and will keep coming back for more.”
“Went here for the first time today and it will be our new go-to stop! I love that they carry a full selection of Blume products. Great coffee, great food, clean and spacious, and friendly atmosphere.”
