5 Best Latin American Restaurants near Victoria

“I love how tiny and welcoming it feels 😎 always busy and the flavors are delicious 😋 Highly recommend ✨️“

“Unique dishes, very savoury and tasty. Definitely lucked out on getting a table for 5 on a weekend evening. The drinks were really good and the service was so friendly and welcoming. 10/10 would come back again. I liked the Karashi Miso Salmon the most (so savoury and addictive), and the Charred Romaine the least (it was too saucy).“

“Good and service were excellent! We will be back!“

“We stopped at The Blue Poppy Restaurant for lunch during our visit to The Butchart Gardens and were pleasantly surprised by how good the food was. For a cafeteria-style restaurant inside a popular tourist attraction, the quality exceeded our expectations.

We ordered the seafood pasta, which was generously loaded with prawns and scallops. It was rich, flavorful, and so delicious that our kids polished it off in no time.

We also tried the Butter Chicken Poutine, a Canadian classic with a creative twist. Crispy French fries were topped with cheese curds, rich butter chicken curry, roasted cashews, and other flavorful toppings. It was absolutely outstanding—comfort food at its finest and almost impossible to stop eating after the first bite.

The restaurant overlooks the beautiful gardens through large picture windows, making it a lovely place to relax and enjoy the scenery while you eat.

Service is cafeteria-style but fast and well organized, with friendly staff and prompt delivery to your table. A wonderful lunch stop during a visit to The Butchart Gardens.“
