This is a very nice restaurant located right on the waterfront. Our family went right around New Years Eve so the Christmas lights were still going at the Parliament building and around the waterfront giving off a nice view from the restaurant. We went during happy hour and my wife had a Bellini ($5) and an Expresso Martini ($10), parmesan fries ($5), and a Baja fish taco ($12). I had a Cajun chicken caesar ($22) and a Dragon Kiss Martini ($10). All prices are Canadian and very reasonably priced. We were both very happy with our service, food and drinks. read more

Milestone in Victoria is my favorite restaurant. I can enjoy seeing Parliament building, the empress and seawall view from patio. What we ordered: Chilled seafood Cobb salad - jumbo poached shrimp, lobster meat, bacon, medium boiled egg, scallop red onion, cucumber edamame, grape tomatoes, avocado, creamy lemon dill dressing side with garlic bread A lot of seafood on the top! Poached shrimp, lobster meat, scallop and bacon paired well with vegetable and lemon dill dressing. I liked A lot vegetable. Lemon dill dressing was strong flavor and was very creamy. Delicious. Shrimp and scallop scampi. Creamy pasta with shrimp and scallop and spinach. I just had one bite, pasta was nicely al dente and very creamy sauce. Very good . Overall, we really enjoyed both food and beautiful Victoria view. I will visit here again. read more

Stumbled upon this restaurant as we got off our shuttle. They have some nice tables outside with heaters. However, we were a little chilled so opted for indoor seating. So glad we did! Our server, Stephanie was really top notch. She was so friendly and provided us with great service during our lunch. We had been told to try a BC wine (since we are from California) - so we tried the McWatters Chardonnay. It did not disappoint and complemented our meal nicely. Speaking of meal - the Sandwich Trio was amazing. The mushroom soup had a swirl of Basil Olive Oil on top that gave it such a nice flavor. The California salad dressing was creamy but not heavy. The sandwich - well.... You will just have to try it. read more

Food and service were great. The restaurant has a very friendly vibe and if you're by the windows you have a great view of the Harbour, Parliament Building, and The Empress Hotel. read more

LOVE this place! Been many times and will keep going back. Fantastic cocktails! Service and food too!

There was a time they were THE spot to get some spinach artichoke dip in the harbor. Apparently that time has passed. The restaurant is nice, the view was perfect, the servers are delightful, but the food was just okay for the price. read more

Went on a Thursday night during summer season. I was happy with the special on Bellinis and my food was tasty. It was delayed from the res rod my table as the first choice I made had dairy and I can't eat that. I was surprised they didn't push my order faster to catch up. Another person also had theirs messed up because they he chicken addition was sent to another table. That Oder was super delayed so we asked for it to be free. The bar was painfully slow, I was asking for my check before the second round arrived; which was supposed to arrive with food. We asked for a water carafe at the first refill, which never came. Be prepared for slow service. read more

Annie was our server. Very cute and friendly young lady. Her service was perfect. My wife started with the Thursday special Original Bellini (peach). Their Lager on tap was a solid choice for me. Enjoyed their burger which was certainly Angus beef. Get the Parmesan garlic fries! read more

Convenient, comfort food, great views, and friendly service. This is an ideal pit stop after a day of walking around the harbor. The large windows of this restaurant provides excellent views of the harbor, The Fairmont Empress, and even Parliament Building. Decided to try Milestones for lunch and was pleasantly surprised by the overall experience. Service was phenomenal. The hostess and server was very friendly and personable. The hostess ensure we had a nice table with a view of the harbor and our server was on point and consistently checked in. The menu had a decent range of selections. I started with a Tokyo Negroni which was a delicious mix of Toki whisky, Campari, Cointreau, sweet vermouth, orange bitters. For entree, I opted for the Smashed Black N' Blue Burger with side of garlic parmesan fries. The burger patties were smaller than the burger, however they were juicy and cooked perfectly. The garlic parmesan fries were delicious and crispy. Also served generously. I would absolutely come back to try their seafood items. read more

Looking for a spot to rest and eat while touring the Inner Harbor of Victoria? Try Milestones. Get a booth next to the window for great views of the Empress Hotel, the Legislative Building, and the busy water taxis buzzing about the harbor. I recommend the Baja fish tacos. The basa fish is a "creamy" white fish that goes well with the aioli, avocado, and tomato. The sweet potato fries are done right, crispy and not too crispy and well-seasoned. Other dishes that my party enjoyed: sirloin steak (rated VERY good) and the portobello mushroom chicken. The sushi bowl with ahi tuna was so-so. The rice in particular is not quite the right consistency for a sushi dish. The ever hard to find double chocolate cookie also makes an appearance here. While I could do without the white chocolate chunks, this chocolate delight still worked for me. The kids of course absolutely loved and devoured it. read more

Had the fish chowder soup. More hard potato in it than fish. One lone shrimp and some unidentifiable fish. $17.00, not worth $5.00. Fish and Chips. Fish was over done, crunchy!!! Would not recommend. No wheelchair access unless you go down a steep road or walk 2 km to get to the wheelchair accessible ramp. Not wheelchair friendly!!!! read more

We went here for lunch. The service was quite slow and our server was matter-a-fact - not rude, but not friendly. My 1989 burger was on the small side, but tasty. The view of the harbour and the Empress Hotel is a definite plus. Not a go-to place, but we'd go again if we were in the neighborhood read more

James the server was Wonderful right on point great bar food visiting from Maryland great place to unwind

Comfortable, convenient meals, breathtaking views, and kind service. After a day of exploring the port on foot, this is a great place to stop. This restaurant's huge windows offer fantastic views of the Parliament Building, the Fairmont Empress, and the waterfront. I chose to have lunch at Milestones and was pleasantly delighted by the whole experience. The level of service was outstanding. The server and hostess were nice and approachable. Our waitress was punctual and regularly checked in, and the hostess made sure we had a lovely table overlooking the port. There was a good variety of options on the menu. I began with a Tokyo Negroni, a delectable concoction of sweet vermouth, orange bitters, Campari, Toki whiskey, and Cointreau. I chose the Smashed Black N' Blue Burger for my meal, along with a side order of garlic parmesan fries. Although the burger patties were smaller than the actual burger, they were nonetheless well cooked and juicy. Crispy and tasty were the garlic parmesan fries. abundantly served as well. Without a doubt, I would return to sample their fish offerings. read more

Love this spot on the waterfront in downtown Victoria. It's the perfect location, especially if you arrive by ferry or float plane to the harbor--just walk right over! There's a finer dining restaurant space upstairs and downstairs, plus a beautiful outdoor patio just feet from the water with a super fun vibe, especially in the summer. The food is exceptional--it really never fails. It serves as comfort food that's better than anything you could ever make at home with a fine dining fusion twist. You must try a Bellini if you haven't before--they're the best and so refreshing in the summer. I had the pulled pork bao buns, and they were delicious. They also do wonderful pastas, and the seafood is one of my favorites. They have the best fries, Caesar salads, and all the classics. Truly one of the best milestones locations! read more

So the patio view is amazing! The service was decent, it wasnt amazing but I feel we were being a bit high stress so I kind of understand. The deep fried cauliflower was alright, my mussels were alright over all. I mean the sauce was great I will say that. The salmon was really good and the wine selection is top notch! Probably worth a visit but not cheap bring your wallet. read more

This gets a 5+! Server Makena was so helpful, guiding us to the perfect options to share. Coconut Calamari was delicious to start. Squeeze that lime juice all over! Fresh grilled Salmon, couscous and seasonal veggies hit the mark, followed by key lime pie. Gazed at the Victoria harbor through the late afternoon haze and enjoyed the waterfront views. read more

Wandering around the beautiful inner harbor of Victoria BC, we came upon Milestones. What a gorgeous setting overlooking the water and right up against Government Street. The dining room is wonderfully appointed and the menu feels sturdy and refined. Yes, I'm recognizing the menu and how it feels in the hands as it's reflective of the restaurant itself. Friendly staff and wonderful meal! I had the chicken and recommend it. Extra bonus for the Old Fashioned but not needed for 5 stars! Good job Canada. I'd like to return one day. read more

Had a great experience at this location. Even tho it was mothers day and we didn't had reservation they were able to give us a table. We got a nice table with harbor view. My favorite was bloody merry with pineapple, shrimp, mozzarella and kabanos. We had a quick lunch while exploring city during our cruise stop at Victoria. Lovely island with lovely parks and scenery. I took mushroom soup which was too bland for me but spinach artichoke dip and my husbands tacos were excellent. Price was very good as well. Service was very quick. read more

Stephanie is a fabulous server! Food was tasty and location is gorgeous! Was also our friendly and super accommodating of our 4 year old.

The service and food were just ok. The mixed drinks are pricey, and they served just half of them, as you can see in the picture. The food was just ok. I believe the high prices of all were due to the fact that the location is waterfront. BTW, they have a posted menu at the front door that is no longer available, so be aware that you'll be seeing a different menu upon sitting. I don't think the food or service is not worth the $50+ a person for a small appetizer and a drink. I won't recommend it read more

Their portion are HUGE! We ordered a calamari to share, those crispy calamari are amazing with the secret sauce! The truffle mushroom spaghetti is totally what I craving for! I also add on with a salmon. The garlic bread on side is another highlight!! Totally perfect eating with the spaghetti sauce! One of my friend ordered burger and the other friend ordered seafood spaghetti. They also said they are super yummy! read more

Excellent service. Very professional and engaging. Food was spot on and very reasonably priced. Will definitely eat here again.

Not bad for a quick stop or bite to eat. I got the fish and chips. The halibut was very, very breaded. The breading was caked on there. The fries weren't super great. They tasted a little old and were a bit floppy. My boyfriend got the bowl with all the different fish. The grilled shrimp and the wam bam? shrimp was really good. But... it really messed with my stomach right afterwards. I'd probably only get a drink and an app from here next time. read more

Good food, good service, good value!!! Steak was cooked perfectly, pasta was al dente, shrimp cooked perfect with great flavor!

As a visitor to Victoria , I will never eat here again . The server was great but the dish I ordered was terrible ! The chicken was reheated obviously and the pasta was a clump of sticky mess ! I didn't send it back because I felt bad for the server . I had this dish at other milestones and it was delicious but yesterday's dinner was horrible . read more

Gorgeous location, lovely service (thanks, Alex!), a nice mid-priced restaurant. Creative and broad menu. I ate a teriyaki shitake mushroom bowl full of fresh, colorful vegetables. My only complaint is that the mushrooms were prepared in such a way as to look like chicken and taste like not much of anything. I wanted mushrooms! I'll go back to sample something else. read more

While walking around downtown, we spotted Milestones from afar. Starving, we decided to give this place a shot before heading back to the cruise ship. Upon entry, I couldn't help but notice the modern decor and view of the Inner Harbor. The day was bright and sunny, which made it perfect to eat and savor the beauty of downtown and the harbor. No apps today since we had to eat and run, so I ordered the Chimichurri sea bass. The fish was tender with the perfect sear. Chimichurri sauce was creamy and delicious, not overpowering. I was a tad disappointed that the dish had white rice instead of the quinoa and rice pilaf as listed on the menu, which was part of the reason I picked this dish. Plating was good, customer service was on point, and food came out timely. Beautiful restaurant to stop by if you want an excellent view of the Inner Harbor. read more

Totally Disappointed! Food was disappointing. Ordered the spinach dip. Def nothing special. A spring type salad showing strawberries in the menu, didn't have them on my table. Ordered largest Rib eye, early on a Friday night, they were out? Settled for Prime Rib. I ordered a smaller, rare, and my birthday celebrating dear friend ordered the large med with surf and turf. They both came large and well done, and hers had Skewer of prawns. They fixed that but blamed server. To end the evening, they offered a free dessert, only to be disappointed again with a dry carrot cake that was suggested. I really didn't want ruin a beautiful birthday date night by complaining at every dish, but I did reply to an email that was sent to me. I explained everything as I did here, but weeks later, I have had no reply. Shame, that such a nice restaurant has such mediocre food and service, right in the heat of the Capitol city. I'll never go back!!!!!! read more

Service was good but a very mediocre tourist trap. We were looking for a place to relax and enjoy the scenery and hit happy hour. The drink selection was the worst I've seen. Too many weak sauce drinks-weird. Not one whiskey or bourbon. Two beers and the one I had was without much flavor. Had the mussels which were ok, that is, the few that were open. I don't stump wrote much in this space but the management can do much better and make it a place to remember in a beautiful location. read more

Good service, good food, limited gluten-free choices. I felt like I was in a harbour-front Earl's. They even have Wednesday "date night" specials like Earl's. The quinoa goat cheese and beet salad tasted like one I'd had at Earl's. If you like Earl's, it's a safe bet you'll like this place. It's pricey, just like Earl's. When I asked for the gluten free noodles they "didn't have them anymore". They were still. listed on the menu though. It was suggested I try the rice noodles but it might not be good without the gluten containing sauce or the this or the that without the sauce that makes the dish. "How about a salad with some chicken breast" Okay. It was tasty enough. My fellow diners seemed happy enough with their meals. read more

We had a great meal and great service! Our server Codi took great care of us. Our group had a Cesar salad with grilled shrimp, the sushi bowl with salmon, the ramen bowl with grilled salmon, and the grilled salmon dinner. All were outstanding. The key lime pie and cheesecake for dessert were delicious! Highly recommend and would definitely come back if in town for more than 30 hours! read more

Ambiance was great. We were greeted and sat very quickly. The food was OK. We went during happy hour and order artichoke dip. The dip was good but we had some very stale chips... The service on the other hand was terrible. We waited a long time to order and was never checked on after we ordered. Probably won't return. read more

Milestones on Wharf Street has been one of my go-to places for years for lunch or a Sunday brunch. I have to confess the last couple times weren't quite as good, but today was poor. The waitress did show up quickly to take our drink orders, but once we ordered food it took about 40 minutes. When food was delivered we had to ask three times for jam and peanut butter, and it took 10 minutes to clear our dishes after we finished eating. The above is easier to forgive if the food is good. The food was lukewarm and had clearly been sitting for a while ... the scrambled eggs on the one dish were congealing. I have been there dozens of times. Not sure if I will go back. read more

The food and service were great. I got the chowder and grilled salmon dish. Both yyuummmmyy. My husband got the Cajun Cesar salad and that was actually more delicious than my salmon dish. Lol but all dishes were delicious and the service was great. Professional and kind workers. read more
