My husband caught the eye of the restaurant from the car when we were out deciding on where to eat, just the short menu outside of the restaurant was mouth-watering, inside looking at all of the food options to choose from had us both almost stuck for choice but we both knew what we wanted, and we were not disappointed, the food is sublime, my husband had a lamb curry and ordered it spicy hot, my choice was the roast lamb, the portions were filling and very satisfying. The staff are quick with bringing orders and friendly. The place is decorated in Renaissance and pictures of Greece, with statuettes and ornamental pillars, with other little Greek touches to add to the feel of the place, really cozy and relaxed. We will go again. The owner saw that we liked the place and gave us a free cheesecake. We both highly recommend it here.

This is my top must visit place to eat when visiting family and friends on Vancouver Island and recommending to family and friends passing through. Bobby and his staff are always amazing and so friendly make it a truly fabulous experience.
We have to go for the food, staff and the ambiance. The food never disappoints us The butter Chicken and Greek Platter for two is our go to always perfection. Pastas are always cooked el dente as should be with his home made sauces to crave for days later.
Appetizers: Way to many to choose from but my favourites are the Gambretti Con Funghi (if you enjoy Prawns and Mushrooms and Garlic) this is perfect size for a couple of two people that will not stuff you before your main event! OR the Calamari which is cooked to absolute mouth watering.

Mains: The creation of so many fabulous tastes will never disappoint. Again go too are always butter chicken and the greek plater for two or souvlaki on its own if your an individual ( I'm not a lamb lover at all and lemme tell you it melts in your mouth one of the only times I can say I like lamb). Pastas you can never go wrong with. Too much to say and write. I have always been 1000 percent satisfied with any and every meal eaten here which is why it's a must when I visit the island!

Desserts:
Can I say I'm not a desert person but the mango and chocolate cheesecake is the ultimate balance of sweet and savoury or the Tiramisu is so light and fluffy its just enough to end a fantastic meal if you save room.

Drinks: Ask the server based on your meal if you need help. The Sangria is always amazing but if you want the perfect meal balance ask the server they will always recommend.

Try the ultimate experience of this place it never disappoints. See you in the fall!

Visiting the area from out of province and was recommended Alexandra’s Bistro. I am glad we followed through on this recommendation. The first thing you’ll notice is the friendly, welcoming staff. The food (saganaki, chicken slovaki, prawn slovaki, and primavera) was thoroughly enjoyed by all. Best of all the pricing was very reasonable especially for the portion size. If you are looking for a great meal while supporting a small local business look no further. PS. The tiramisu is on point. Easy 5 star review.

Delicious Greek food, but I wouldn’t say the best I’ve had. It was a busy time so service was a bit slow but they were apologetic. Chef came out and asked people how the food was which was sweet!

Food is incredible, the staff are so friendly, it’s one of my favourite restaurants in Nanaimo!

The Greek Platter for Two is an amazing deal because you get so much food and variety, I would also highly recommend the spicy carrots!
