“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!!“

“Best in the West“

“I loved this family owner restaurant. We order lasagna and spaghetti for my kids that come with ice cream. The meat sauce of the pastas was divine.

A few months later;

I was back and the food was delicious and I had a very good moment with my family again here.
Jordan was the person who attended us and I must say he was super polite and kind, thank you 🙏🏼“
