4 Best American Restaurants in Port Alberni

“I’m serious when I say J&L Drive-In serves some of the best burgers and shakes I’ve ever had. The service is always polite, there’s plenty of space, and it has that genuine, welcoming feel you don’t find everywhere. Honestly, it’s one of the only places I find myself craving when I’m not in town.“

“Really enjoyed the food. Mashed potatoes had a lot of flavour, and all the pasta dishes looked really appetizing as well. I think the cordon bleu could have used more savory flavour. It was good, but maybe stronger cheese or saltier ham would make it amazing.“

“I came in for my 18th birthday party and we were served by Brandylee and she was genuinely so amazing. So funny, and such a great waitress. I tried leaving her an extra tip and she wouldn't even let me because it was my birthday. She made it feel like I was being served by a friend and every time I come back, because I love the food so much, I hope to have her as my waitress. Lots of love for Brandylee and this restaurants amazing food!!“

“Delicious dinner and super service! The black bean quesadilla was scrumptious, salad fresh and I ate far too much, but it was sooo good. Despite being the only server, Tracy looked after me really well and even had a great suggestion for a walk to work off the overindulgence. I particularly liked that, although a sports bar, TVs were visible but not blaring or even audible, so all patrons could enjoy their preference… the meal, conversation and/or the games.“
