Vegan Mac & Cheez
Colin B.

Great service and a really fun atmosphere. They don't have many vegan options, but we had the Mac & cheez and it was delicious ! The coleslaw is also vegan and it's great too. Definitely worth a visit while in Tofino

This spot is a little tough to find but definitely a hidden gem in Tofino. We were staying at the hotel next door and ended up on a little trail that led us directly to the bbq! A small space which holds 20-30 people and run by 2 gentlemen with a genuine love for great bbq. We were recommended to try the share platter which could have easily fed 3-4 people. Not bad for $50! For the platter you get a random selection of 3 meats and we ended up with brisket, pulled pork and beef sausages (which are apparently made from the odds and ends of the bbq brisket). You also get 3 random sides also. Loved the brisket - very tender and juicy and nicely seasoned with the bourbon based bbq sauce, grainy mustard and caramelized onion. The pulled pork was decent also. I personally did not like the beef sausages (too dense in texture for my liking?) but it is a matter of personal preference. Would have loved to try the chicken instead. The sides were potato salad, beans and coleslaw. They were all okay but I think the coleslaw could have used some additional acid to cut down on the richness of the meats for a nice refreshing crunch. Overall a great meal - i think the sides could use some jazzing up but the bbq was good overall. Just a note that there is a charge for takeout boxes if you don't finish your meal at a buck a pop - so if you want to bring something home might be a good idea to bring your own container. Good spot for a quick bite if you are up for some meaty goodness. Service was a little slow even though there were only 4 patrons in total but understandable as they did everything from the bbqing, smoking, serving, and bartending. Might be a longer wait if it was a busy night but hey you're in Tofino so have to adjust to a slower pace of life in general and take it easy.

Excellent place for BBQ and waitress was awesome. Although they close early which is inconvenient.

We were looking for nice place for dinner, nothing too fancy but memorable. We found it in Lil' Ronnie's BBQ by the beach. It is part of campground, close to the beach and facing a nice little garden with tables. We had the brisket and the pulled pork plus potato salads and pickles. Everything was delicious, lovely service and chill atmosphere. I would highly recommend it!

After - horrible full of fat and dry meat

The smoked meat was great just a bit pricey. The staff were fantastic. I would recommend this little gem if your ever in Tofino.

Fun location with friendly servers, but the food was awful and overpriced. Is it the worst meal of a 10 day vacation by far.

We didn't have reservations but we arrived right when the restaurant opened at 5:00 p.m. and they…read morewere able to seat us right away. We got a beautiful spot on the patio and I loved how they had heaters to keep us warm. We started with some appetizers and they were absolutely amazing. I especially loved the octopus. For means we got the salmon which was a daily special. Everything was cooked perfectly and the flavors were amazing. ​​​​​​​​​

Wow! We had a reservation for Wolf in the Fog our last night in Tofino and it couldn't have been…read morebetter! The entire place felt elevated but cozy - our table was upstairs under beautiful wooden beams and big windows overlooking the town. The vibe was lively but not too loud on a Tuesday evening. Service started out wonderfully and we regularly received fresh table settings between courses, however we had a switch in waitstaff later in the meal and it was incredibly slow at the end. No big deal since we weren't in a rush but something to note that it could be hit or miss. The food, on the other hand, was 100% on point. We ordered the potato crusted oyster appetizer and I was blown away - innovative and delicious. For my main, I got the halibut in a curry sauce that was just perfection. My friends tried the sea board, seaweed salad, and scallop gratin, and loved all of it. This meal was a highlight of our vacation.
