Stopped in on Valentines Day for lunch and although the Menu was elaborate and slightly overpriced,…read moreI could not BELEIVE the condition of the restaurant. The walls are flesh colored, full of pin and nail holes, the kitchen staff were dropping F bombs just on the other side of the door where we sat, the bathroom had dollar store quality tissue, an old Febreze air freshener, a ripped baby changing station.... For such a swanky place at price point, I would like to feel like I am in a special place, and this was sub par. Your art work is placed so weirdly high. Wouldn't go back for the money vs atmosphere. Get an updated coat of paint and clean your restrooms.

Apparently there are line ups down the street during the summer so plan accordingly! We enjoyed our dinner dishes! The seafood bouillabaisse had a tasty broth and the burger was juicy. We had a beer and wine, and all in it was $125. I think this is a local spot as well, as the place was filling up as the evening went on. Music was a good volume so you could have a good easy conversation. It was also nice to see local students working here part time.

It's a cute restaurant with friendly servers. We were hoping to sit on the patio but they had very…read morelittle shading so we ended up sitting inside. I ordered halibut fish and chips. The fish was average I really like the side summer slaw salad. We also shared the crab cake appetizer and I found that a bit fishy. I wouldn't order that again. The service was pretty slow but I guess it's expected in that area. It wasn't very busy during lunch. They have a cute patio so I'd love to check that out another time

Everyone else enjoyed their food as well. Our server made this visit really enjoyable. She was congenial, attentive, and was just overall wonderful. Food came out pretty quickly.

Oh. My. Goodness. I am RAVING about this place. I went on a mother daughter date with my mum…read more We got the French Onion Soup, and the Classic Fondue. It was the perfect amount of food and it was incredible. I would also recommend the Speak Mimosa I would recommend making a reservation after 7pm, just to be safe. The waitress was friendly, checked in, but didn't linger. I've been to the Melting Pot before - and it does NOT compare. It was priced as expected - it's not a fast food restaurant and it's worth every dollar. (Two soups, the classic fondue, two drinks and tips was just shy of $100). I've attached a poorly taken photo - we were too excited to eat it to get a picture in time.

Venue 5/5 Lakefront…read morerestaurant with patio along boardwalk. Right on the main strip of Friday harbour. Patio has lounge like seating with umbrellas as well. They are also dog friendly (see below), as the other restaurant in resort are service animals only. Service 4/5 Came on a Saturday for supercars and jazz. More traffic than usual at the resort. That being said the team were pretty quick in getting our food to the table after ordering. The wait times for inside were longer than outside due to the heat. We sat outside but the breeze definitely helped out along with the umbrellas. Food 4/5 Portions were quite generous. We got a chicken wrap (chose honey garlic wing sauce) as well as nachos and a chicken Brie sandwich. The venue is also pet friendly , they had dog bowls a for food and water. They also had a dog beer (it is cold bone broth) for the dogs on the patio.

We stumbled upon this restaurant solely based on how good the food smelled from outside. We were…read morewalking on the sidewalk and smelled the grill. Walking in, we were greeted with a smile. The place had a nice open layout with warm lighting. Crispy & Spicy Squid (4/5) was cooked perfectly. It was firm and crispy with red and green chillis. The sauces were on the sweeter side. We usually prefer the sauces to be more on the tangy and/or a creamy bold garlic flavour. Wagyu Burger (3/5) was decent. It came with two patties, smoked cheddar, caramelized onions, black truffle garlic aioli, tomatoes and pickles. The flavour profile met our expectation but we found that the patties themselves were a bit dry. We upgraded the side of fries for truffle fries (5/5) and those were delicious. Spicy Bison Sausage Rigatoni (5/5) was cooked perfectly. The sausage was complemented well with the acidity and delicate sweetness of the pasta sauce. The mushrooms were a great addition and the parmesan really tied in all the flavours together. We had the option to have it not spicy, mild or hot. We asked for hot because we enjoy spicy food but it was not as spicy as we had hoped it to be. NOTE: The bill comes with an additional 3% Resort Fee

Location of the café is a perk! It's located in a seemingly quaint alley but once we entered the…read morecafé it was bustled. We were looking for somewhere we could sit and work off our laptops for some hours and the café had ample seats and stable wifi. There's a bar area as well so you could go for an afternoon buzz. They seemed to have interesting options on the menu ranging from sandwiches to other small or shareable dishes. Read somewhere bread was from the Collingwood Bread Company. I always enjoy locally made baked goods. Latte and matcha latte were solid. Stole a bite of the smoked trout sandwich - if you love one of those smoked salmon creamy tangy spread sandwiches this is definitely a good one. Pictures not taken are the grilled cheese and cheese scone. Smoked cheese was used in the grilled cheese sandwich. I enjoy all kinds of cheeses so I was pleased with the smoky kick. Cheese scone was not heated up properly and somehow the cheese, despite looking like a typical golden cheddar, was not flavourful at all. Dough base of the scone lacked the buttery, flaky texture. I'd say skip it. Hm honestly this place deserves more reviews.
