Poor and disengaged service. Long wait times. Servers were busy chatting with each other instead of serving guests. Appetizers and main course came at the same time. No sorry offered. Food was okay, but kind of mediocre. A tourist trap.

Great atmosphere, and vibe but expensive. Service and food was okay. The vibe, location and menu doesn't match the quality and service. Although I've been here a few times, I likely won't be back.

Food was ok, but poorly presented and one dish was over salted. Service was absolutely poor: Far too long wait times, the starters came after the main dish arrived, they argued about a cookie with the 3 scoops of ice cream. No apology was extended when the starters came too late, just a “you want to cancel?”, no thank you or good bye when we left the place. We are locals and work in the hospitality industry and this will certainly be the last place we will ever recommend. The staff clearly are not happy working there and treated us like unappreciated tourists and in a very transactional way (most likely because we spoke another language at the table as we had visitors from abroad). Very sad experience.

As locals, this one of our favourites. The location, service and food are reliably excellent. Furthermore, when my dad (with dementia) visited alone and ordered his meal but could not pay for it, they took care of him. When we discovered he hadn’t paid for his meal, my mom offered to e-transfer the money owing. They simply said it was on the house. We appreciate this community!

Great setting on the Inner Harbor, especially the outdoor seating. The food options are all excellent, and the service is very attentive without being annoying.

Came in as part of a pub crawl and then again the next day for happy hour. Food was good and would go again for sure.

I come 800 miles for the halibut and chips. The breading is almost nonexistent and the fish is the freshest I have eaten in a restaurant.

High end prices for tiny portions of low end food. You're paying for the nice view and that's it.

Great food and possibly the Best Happy Hour in Victoria ! Incredibly located across from the Empress and Inner Harbour with a view of the Legislature Building !

We visited 10 Acres and found the overall experience to be a bit mixed. While the atmosphere was lovely and the service was friendly and attentive, the food and drinks were quite average.

We ordered the falafel salad, falafel burger, and nachos. Unfortunately, the nachos were served cold, which made the cheese quite rubbery and unappetizing. The drinks also lacked balance in terms of flavor and mixing, nothing particularly memorable.

We appreciated the vibe and the setting, but the food didn’t quite live up to expectations. Would return for the ambiance, but probably not for the meal.

My room mates and I came to the 10 Acres and we had the BEST service ever!! We came fairly late and still received such great service from Anup! Made us feel so welcome and was so friendly towards us! We will definitely be coming back soon :)

Location and atmosphere were nice but the food is way over priced for the portions you receive.
Prawn tacos.. it was basically 1 prawn cut into thirds with a teaspoon of pico on it, no flavour.. $19.
My friend had a commons bowl with chicken and no lie in total was about 1 cup of food. $25
Oysters were not that great either, their version of what I’m guessing was supposed to be mignonette was awful. $25
We had to order chicken sliders to try and fill us up. Which I can attest that they were actually yummy.

However would not go back. Way more restaurants that have better portion sizes for the price.
