What a great place. Delicious food, friendly staff and I liked the older decor. A blast from the past.
One of the best steaks I’ve ever eaten. Cooked and seasoned perfectly.
Highly recommend!

Bold knight is one of our most favorite restaurants in Nanaimo! I love the Lobster and my husband always loves the steaks. The staff are amazing and so conscious of checking in with you and making your dining experience excellent.
Thanks guys!

The wait staff were super friendly and knowledgeable. Food wasn't bad at all, what little I was able to eat there while it was hot was great. I had to finish my meal at home though. Unfortunately there was a very strong smell of cat pee (i hope not ammonia from spoiled seafood?) and searing meat in the dining room that killed my appetite over the 45 or so minutes it took for our plates to come.

The decor looks like it was bought new back in the 1890's, this place desperately needs a remodel, or at least a very deep carpet cleaning. I'll give it another try eventually because the food was very good. But my impression of the dining area wasn't great I'm sorry to say. Some extra ventilation would be good to help freshen up the air and make it a little less stuffy.

Great old school steak house. The vibe is definitely a throwback, but it is true to its roots and authentic. The staff are lively and attentive and the food is delish. Lobsterfest is an annual event for us... The lobster bisque is the best!

I was expecting amazing - didn’t quite hit the mark with over cooked steak for true medium rare. My friends food was also decent but not what we had hoped.

We were sadly disappointed in the food and the cold service we received from the server this evening. The bus person was lovely and we appreciated her kind service. The food: Greek ribs and Greek salad were bland at best.
