The first night my wife and I had scallops for appetizers and herb crusted Wild pacific salmon for the entrees. Their fish were cooked to perfection and the accompaniments were an enhancement as opposed to a dominating force. The second night I had escargot and my wife had the beet and goat cheese salad. We both loved our appetizers. The shepherds pie was good although I found the cheese on top of the mashed potatoes was neither necessary nor authentic, but it was still quite good. My wife had the duck confit which she liked very much. The ambiance is one of a country English cottage which felt cozy and warm and the servers were personable and solicitous without hovering. I'm guessing as good as most of the restaurants in town (Hastings House lies just outside the main strip).

Started out with lobster bisque (with a good amount of lobster) and a dozen snails (chef slipped a couple extra!) in a marvelous garlic butter and Parmesan sprinkled over all. Then for entree we enjoyed a wonderfully prepared Herb Crusted Wild Pacific Red Snapper With Creamy Parmesan Polenta, Basil Pesto. I enjoyed the Pan-Seared Nova Scotia Deep Sea Scallops on a fresh bed of lettuce mix and greens. So definitely a restaurant to try but you'll want to plan staying a night or two given they are on an island off the Vancouver island! Rooms are great also with some placed in cabins with views making you feel like you're in a tree house amongst the pines.

We skipped straight to entrees and enjoyed the salmon and steak specials, both just under $30. Loved that you can order wine in 6oz, 9oz, or half litre, but if they're going to have a steak special they need a Cabernet or a claret by the glass, something more full-bodied than the Malbec. Salmon had an interesting horseradish-flavored sauce that made for a good balance with the fish. "Greens" turned out to be a salad: lettuce and sprouts with dressing, not cooked greens. My steak came out medium well not medium rare, but they replaced it, no problem. It was a busy Saturday night and every restaurant we've been to on this trip seems to be having problems finding staff. Mashed potatoes were fantastic. Just the right amount of cream and butter (a lot, according to my wife) and with a bit of skin to make the perfect texture. The portion was large but I could have kept eating these til I popped. We had no room for dessert (unless more mashed potatoes were an option). Outdoor seating was what most everyone opted for, although the indoor dining room seats looked very comfortable. Tables outside were appropriately distanced and the garden is well landscaped to provide a beautiful buffer from the street. Wish our catmint would grow as well! Hats off to the gardener.

I went to this cafe and asked one of the staff nicely,(not sure he's the owner or the staff) can I wash my dogs leg in your washroom? The staff didn't say"sorry you can not" or "this washroom is for people only". Instead, he looked me in the eyes and said: "not possible!" I don't understand how you can run a business with such attitude to your customers. Maybe because you guys are the only cafe nearby, so you talk with whatever attitude you want. Anyway, we didn't order any food or drinks from this place, because the attitude is already fed me up. Hope you guys will run out of business in no time. And eventually shut down due to your disgusting attitude.
