You're going there for the solid rib sticking food that will make you want to come back again. There is no pretense here, just straight forward what you see is what you get. Ryan M took great care of us while there, we backed for nothing. That said he has a personality, which we love, no shrinking violet here. My traditional bennie was good, with house cooked ham, eggs exactly as I asked for and potatoes shaped differently than you typically see. They were great for mopping up the leftovers. The lovely K Huevos Incredibalos was also good. She opted for two tortillas instead of three and enjoyed every bite. Would we go back, hell yeah we would!

The service was very slow but friendly, and the delicious beers and food all around the table was mostly all great. The brussels sprouts were the star of the show done perfectly, crospy with tasty balsamic vinegar! Fish and chips was huge. (You can definitely order the one piece) The crispy chicken burger was crispy and delicious. The bison burger was ok, a bit overcooked and kind of dry, but that might've been a one off experience. The atmosphere was busy and lively. We enjoyed our 20 ounce beer. They have a really good list to choose from. It's definitely worth a stop if it's not too busy.

I think I have to bump up the stars since my last beer experience here…read more On our latest trip to our northern neighbor we had another beer from Driftwood that we immensely enjoyed. That beer was the Spiff Corn Lager. It was such a refreshing beverage to have as we were ready to get out of the hot mugginess of summer. Flavor features with this delightful beer are a natural sweetness along with crispness and a clean finish. The beer is very light bodied and extremely persuasive in having you get another one.

By dealing with an uncomfortable situation they made us feel comfortable staying for a second round. If we lived here, we'd be back! I loved the raspberry sour! So light and refreshing!

I love diners, and this one is fabulous!…read more Located right downtown by the inner harbor, on Government Street, this restaurant is large, with two separate doors 1/2 block apart. I loved the spacious interior with the retro diner aesthetic. I loved how it opens at 7am and has a lot of breakfast options, and all are reasonably priced. I love the booths, the soda counter, the chalkboard message board with daily specials on it. I love the cheery and attentive server we had. And, lastly, I love the food here! (I was here for breakfast and my eggs and bacon were EXACTLY how I ordered them, and they also made me a fantastic iced vanilla latte, too). The restaurant and the bathrooms were super clean, too (bonus!). I checked out the extensive menu and realized, heck, I should have come here the day before for lunch. They have so many sandwiches and burgers available. Just wow. IMO this place would be perfect for breakfast or lunch, or a late night snack. (I think they're open until 9pm). If you like traditional diner fare, this is the place to be, for sure.

Frankie's Modern Diner was a nice casual place to stop by for dinner. We had a reservation for…read moredinner on a weekday, but there were hardly anyone in during prime meal time. The atmosphere was alright with dimmer lighting than other similar places which was nice for the mood, and the place was surprisingly louder than expected for the little people that were there. The waitress we had was friendly and nice, but also came by frequently to ask if we were done looking at the menu, with our food, wanting the bill. It felt very rushed despite there not being many other customers in the area. We were only in the restaurant for about 45 minutes today. The food was mediocre. I had the fried chicken and waffles, which looked good but tasted generic. The fried chicken was a bit dry and just tasted like it was seasoned with salt and pepper and that's about it. The waffle tasted like something anyone could make at home. My friend had the Caesar salad, which was drenched in sauce but otherwise looked alright. Overall, the food is on the pricier side, relative to the portion size being served. Expect to spend at least $30 to be full, not including drinks and dessert.

The food was DELICIOUS. I had the surf & turf, and it was top tier. The steak was cooked to perfection, juicy, tender, and full of flavor. The lobster and shrimp practically melted in my mouth.

The atmosphere was relaxed and chill, making it a great place to sit back and enjoy an incredible meal without feeling overly formal. Fantastic food, great drinks, and wonderful service. An easy 5/5 and definitely a place I'd return to the next time I'm in Victoria!
