“I have been twice to the Hot Dog Guys and cannot wait to go again. Awesome choices and the best veggie dog I have ever tasted. So many toppings and the bun and hot dog were fresh and so tasty. These guys are so welcoming and it is delightful to have great service with a smile as they deliver top food. Yummy! Will go back soon. Top food for Victoria and area! Try it you will be hooked!“

“Il Terrazzo is hands down my favourite restaurant in Victoria. The food is consistently exceptional — beautifully presented, perfectly balanced, and full of authentic Italian flavour. Their cocktail program is just as impressive, and the wine service is thoughtful and knowledgeable without ever feeling pretentious.

The atmosphere strikes that perfect balance between romantic and lively, making it ideal for both special occasions and intimate dinners. Every visit feels seamless thanks to the attentive, professional service. Il Terrazzo truly delivers one of the best dining experiences in the city.“

“Seriously the best tofu scramble I’ve ever had; just the right amount of spice. Hardest part was walking past all the delicious donuts,scones and baked goods to order breakfast first. We got some sweet treats to go. The staff were super friendly and accommodating. They made special pancakes for the 2 yr old we were traveling with. I would eat there every day if I could. Will definitely go back next time we are in Victoria. Updated from previous review on 2026-01-22“

I was able to cozy up my scooter right next to my table and sip and savour their delicious Lavender Latte while watching the florist from “Flowers on Top” select gorgeous peonies from their spring flower selection across the street. Gorgeous spot, simply delightful!“

“Was looking for caffeine and soup and ended up with an iced Americano and congee? Never expected to see congee but given my dental procedure just prior, I decided to give it a try. Congee was amazing! Not what you’d expect from a Chinese congee and in the best way. Americano was super smooth without the over-roasted bitterness of some better known coffee brands. I was on the island for a visit and will be back at my next opportunity.“

Tibetan Kitchen is a great place for a relaxing and thoroughly enjoyable lunch or dinner.“

She was an absolute wonderful server, she was personable, funny and very knowledgable and helpful with the menu. She made our visit one of our favorite memories from our vacation.

“Andrew is amazing, so hospitable and the sushi is made beautifully with the freshest seafood. His Cadboro Bay roll is the absolute BEST!! It is a must have for sure.“

“Stopped by around 2:30 pm on a weekday for a quiet break during my Vancouver Island drive. The café had a calm, steady rhythm — not crowded, but active enough to feel part of the local flow. Staff were friendly and efficient, and the interior was clean, bright, and welcoming.

A pleasant surprise: they offer a small selection of Asian food items alongside their coffee and pastries — a thoughtful touch that adds variety and local flavor. I also noticed my own handcrafted cutting boards on display, made from colorful natural hardwood — a proud moment to see them featured in a space that values warmth and community.

Parking is easy, and the location is convenient for anyone traveling between Victoria and the West Shore communities. A simple, steady café that adds a moment of calm to a weekday afternoon — with a few personal touches that make it even more meaningful.“

“We had the dill pickle dip as an appetizer it was so good, and had fish and chips which was also delicious. The staff was very friendly and attentive definitely will be a repeat customer“

“Fast order/delivery, good portions and delicious 😋“

“Nice quick spot to grab a bite. Probably the most affordable option at the food court. The service was fast and efficient.

Fries are good. New York Fries tends to be consistent in quality.

Bay Centre convenient location. I appreciate the biodegradable cutlery.

Interested in trying poutine next time“

“Each time I visit, I am greeted by the calmest, kind man! They serve drumroaster coffee, so you know you're in for a good cup! ( any local coffee heads know drumroaster is the best on the island.)
The library section is super well curated. I always find a good read here!
Amazing matcha as well, and some vegan options are available.“

“great service, chill vibe, good cocktails“

“OMG what an amazing find! Fresh made food and generous portions! We had soup, a bowl, rice, and kombucha! All seemingly sourced locally, yeah!

Start with my meal - soup, rice, and kombucha. The soup was tomatoes basil, cashew, and pepper soup. The cashew was ground but not puréed giving the soup good texture. There was just enough basil to as that distinct flavor without overpowering the tomatoes. The pepper added a nice zip to it as well. Because I wanted a more solid meal - I added a side of jasmine rice which I promptly pour into the soup. Yes it was DELICIOUS! The kombucha was a citrus ginger that was tasty without being too zippy.

Hubby got the pacific rim bowl that had quinoa, spicy broccoli, grilled chicken breast, slaw, baby spinach, rice, tapenade type of dressing. He devoured it in nothing flat!

Planning on making this a regular stop when we visit Victoria from now on!“

“Delicious food and very kind staff. Will definitely be back!“

“Had an amazing experience last night at Earls. Everything was 💯 from walking in. Our server Shelby was incredible, never missed a thing and had all the right recommendations.“

“Tonight I picked up the butter chicken and Kachumber salad to bring home for dinner. Wow!! They were super friendly and efficient and the food was outstanding!! All around excellent!“

“I frequently choose this restaurant. Love the outdoor summer dining. It’s like dining in a tree house. Staff are lovely and the food is always delicious. In winter, it’s cozy. Beautifully decorated.“
