“I ordered the mackerel set meal and thoroughly enjoyed it. The mackerel was grilled perfectly, with crispy skin and moist, flavorful meat. The rice, miso soup, and side dishes complemented the meal beautifully and made for a very satisfying dining experience. Being an owner-chef operated restaurant, the care and attention to detail were evident in every dish. Everything tasted fresh and well prepared. I look forward to coming back and would highly recommend this place.”

“From the moment you walk through the door to the moment you leave, the professional and attentive staff take care of every detail. Restaurant is large - it has great ambience, the layout provides a personal and intimate feeling despite there being many tables. The food is superb, we plan on returning to make our way through the great menu. It is the best place we have eaten at in Canada for food, service and ambience. We highly recommend the seafood tower as a way to taste through some of the menu. The grilled octopus rivalled what we have eaten in Italy. The pork belly was cooked to perfection. The wine list is extensive and expertly curated.”

The only area that could be improved is the service accuracy and response time. On several visits, we received something different from what we ordered, or the information provided about the specials or menu items was not fully accurate. However, in general, the staff have good behavior and the food is excellent, so we still enjoy coming here.”

“Ugly Duckling doesn't serve dinner so much as it stages a carefully choreographed argument against mediocrity. Every course in the Spring Tasting Menu felt deliberate, restrained, and confident. In a culinary world increasingly obsessed with spectacle, this menu trusted its ingredients to carry the conversation. A surprisingly rare act of courage.
The Haida Gwaii sablefish was exceptional. Rich and buttery without becoming heavy, it was lifted beautifully by the trout roe and smoke. Every element seemed calibrated to amplify the others rather than compete for attention.
The Stillmeadow Farms Tamworth pork may have been the standout course of the evening. The fermented daikon brought brightness and complexity, while the XO sauce added depth and, not in a bad way, made the pork taste like halibut.
That is a good thing! I dont know how to explain that.
Their duck sauce is kept secret. Let me be clear, if there had been no witnesses I would have licked the plate.
A genuinely outstanding dining experience. The ugly duckling, it turns out, has grown into a swan.

I'm not a big wine connoisseur so I may have not enjoyed it to the fullest, the selection of apertifs was a nice alternative though.

“Heard about this place awhile ago from 365prowrestling since they occasionally do live pro wrestling events here.

Originally went months ago on a Saturday afternoon but it was packed and too crowded to even be able to look around at all the unique crazy spectacular decor or to take photos since too many customers were there.

Kept seeing 5 star reviews so decided to finally go back and try the food this time.

Went on a weekday afternoon. Very quiet and relaxed this time with tons of empty tables and I was able to actually look around at everything this time.

My latte was in a huge Mug and over flowing in a good way. The server did an awesome job of bringing it to my table without spilling it since it was full to the max.

The Brisket sandwich I ordered was massive. I managed to finish most of it. Very tasty and I added the Hotwheels sauce they had on my table.

Awesome presentation and taste. Massive sandwich and they had the knife 🔪 sticking out of it.

Was definitely worth the price and I'll be coming back again to try another unique item to feast on in the future.

After my meal I was extremely full and totally stuffed but managed to look around in the cool gift/merchandise shop they have.

Stuffed raccoon in a Jean jacket on display and lots of cool posters and shirts 👕”

From when you first enter & you smell the fresh herbs to when you sit down around the table on super comfortable chairs/couches. WOW. The staff were attentive, personal and yet not in your zone too much. Helpful with advice on the food and menu. 10/10. The food was on another planet. We had three dishes in total - one appy and two mains. Cooked perfectly, extremely fresh flavours and large portions. The naan bread… just wow. Delish! Will be coming back and telling everyone about this. They deserve a line out the door.”

If they rubbed it and braised the belly and cut proper thick slices for porkbelly it would do the oppisite and add to the dish 🥲.”

“This is one of Victoria's highlights. Bunny's is a hidden gem of a cafe and one of the few places to get a decent latte, flat white, or cappuccino. The food is good, but the atmosphere is cozy and community-oriented. The best way to describe Bunny's is that it's like coming back home for the first time. We're originally from Ontario, and stepping into Bunnie's, it was a quality cafe experience without any of the pretentiousness downtown. Just make sure you have some time to kill because once you get to the cafe, you won't want to leave, and they do close early.”

When they state porkbelly and you get shaved roast porkbelly that is not seasoned and because it is thinner than their bacon super chewy and distracts from the other flavours of the dish which are okay. If they rubbed it and braised the belly and cut proper thick slices for porkbelly it would do the oppisite and add to the dish 🥲.”

“Heard about this place awhile ago from 365prowrestling since they occasionally do live pro wrestling events here.

Originally went months ago on a Saturday afternoon but it was packed and too crowded to even be able to look around at all the unique crazy spectacular decor or to take photos since too many customers were there.

Kept seeing 5 star reviews so decided to finally go back and try the food this time.

Went on a weekday afternoon. Very quiet and relaxed this time with tons of empty tables and I was able to actually look around at everything this time.

My latte was in a huge Mug and over flowing in a good way. The server did an awesome job of bringing it to my table without spilling it since it was full to the max.

The Brisket sandwich I ordered was massive. I managed to finish most of it. Very tasty and I added the Hotwheels sauce they had on my table.

Awesome presentation and taste. Massive sandwich and they had the knife 🔪 sticking out of it.

Was definitely worth the price and I'll be coming back again to try another unique item to feast on in the future.

After my meal I was extremely full and totally stuffed but managed to look around in the cool gift/merchandise shop they have.

Stuffed raccoon in a Jean jacket on display and lots of cool posters and shirts 👕”

“We recently dined in March restaurant in May 2025. The food and ambiance were excellent, and we were pleasantly surprised with the discovery of this restaurant in Victoria. Please note that this is not your typical Chinese restaurant that serves the run-of the mill dishes for a quick turn-around; instead, this restaurant serves authentic Cantonese cuisines. The chef is passionate about his cooking -- they use the freshest produce and ensure that customers enjoy the pure and natural taste of the dishes. The restaurant is tastefully decorated; it is devoid of the 'loud' Chinese lanterns or traditional writings -- and this reflects the owners' attention to detail. Dining in March is a delightful and satisfying culinary experience. Highly recommended!”

Parking was terrible and the lot was full. The place is small but efficient. For take out standing room only by the cash was busy and I felt like I was in the way of the staff trying to get by to serve the tables. Very good staff and the lady that took my order was very nice. 60$ for the 3 orders and a decent tip feels totally fair for what we had.

“I had a wonderful dining experience at this Japanese restaurant. The quality of the ingredients truly stands out—everything was fresh, flavorful, and thoughtfully prepared. You can really taste the care and attention put into each dish. The staff were friendly, attentive, and very helpful. Special bravo to Jammy for the excellent service and warm hospitality, which made the experience even more enjoyable. The ambiance is very pleasant, with a beautiful Japanese-style atmosphere that adds to the overall dining experience. In terms of pricing, the cost is fair and reasonable, especially considering the quality of the food—it’s not outrageous at all. This restaurant clearly focuses on quality over quantity, so if you’re looking for large portions rather than refined, high-quality dishes, this may not be the place for you. However, if you appreciate fresh ingredients, great flavors, and a lovely atmosphere, this restaurant is definitely worth a visit.”

My Thai Cafe 1020 Cook St, Victoria Thai • $$

“Wow!! This was my first time here and so so impressed. Small but mighty! The food was delicious and the service fantastic too. Had four teenagers and even they seemed happy. We all loved the food and menu recommendations from the owner. Thank you for a lovely evening out. The food isn't super quick to the table, but hey, this is fresh cooked and it's not simple white spot food. So relax and enjoy the experience. Pretend you are in Thailand.”

“Dinner was delicious, with plenty left over to take home. Service was excellent. Little candle burners under the food servers kept everything at a good temperature. Allergies were addressed (separate deep fryer for gluten free, for example). We keep coming back here as our favourite Indian restaurant in Victoria.”

Golden City Restaurant 721 Fisgard St, Victoria Chinese • $$

“We had a Chinese Christmas celebration at Golden City today. We were about 180 people and they still made room for others who came for lunch. There were over 10 courses which were all delicious - hot and fresh. There was a set up for music and people from our group sang Christmas carols and Chinese songs at a karaoke mic. The service was excellent. The price was reasonable. It was fun all round.”

Glo Restaurant + Lounge 2940 Jutland Rd, Victoria Lounges • $$

“We celebrated a friend’s birthday tonight at Glo Restaurant + Lounge, and it was such a fantastic experience from start to finish. The food was absolutely incredible. The presentation, the flavors… just yum. You can truly tell how much care and effort goes into every dish. Everything looked beautiful and tasted even better. The service made the night even more special. The seater/greeter was so warm and welcoming right from the start. Our server, Kaitlyn, was amazing in every way. Super polite and fun, yet still professional and perfectly attentive without being overbearing (which we really appreciated!). The bartender was SO sweet as well. Thank you for the little details that made a difference. For the paper napkins (cloth ones give me the ick!), for happily substituting my mashed potatoes for a salad, and for delivering such genuinely great customer service all around. We truly enjoyed ourselves and will absolutely be back!”

The attention to detail, quality of the food, and exceptional customer service truly set this restaurant apart. I can't wait to come back and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a memorable dining experience. Five stars!”

Milestones 812 Wharf St, Victoria Canadian • $$

“We had a great experience here, thanks in large part to our server, James M.

James was friendly, funny, and incredibly welcoming from the moment we sat down. He even spoke Farsi with us and shared stories about his trip to our home country years ago, which made the experience feel personal and memorable. He was attentive, polite, and genuinely a pleasure to talk to. We left feeling like we’d been taken care of by an old friend.

The food was good and enjoyable, but James really elevated the whole experience. Excellent service can make all the difference, and he absolutely delivered. Give that man a raise!

We’ll definitely remember our visit because of him.”
