Miso sable fish (dine out)
Jess S.

We came during dine out which was so incredibly lively and busy! They even had live music at the end of our meal. Place was packed and we were celebrating so we ordered ALOT! I'm going to stick with what I got and I want to preface that the food portions are great so we left with a ton of leftovers! I started with the Burrata Con Pane (Heirloom Baby Tomatoes, Roasted Garlic, Pickled Red Onions, Arugula, Olive Oil Drizzle, Basil, Focaccia Crostini). I wanted something light and veg forward and this dish did not miss. The entire table was able to try and agreed it was the best. Spreading the roaster garlic on the bread before tossing all the ingredients together and piling it on is next level. The basil dressing was very similar to a pesto and the pickled onions were a huge hit! This would be a hit even without the burrata! I felt tomato happy because I also ordered the Linguine Rosa (Roasted Tomatoes, Yellow Peppers, Spinach, Rosa Chardonnay Cream Sauce, Parmigiano Reggiano). The dish had vibrant yellow peppers that were almost caramelized. You could taste the Chardonnay in the sauce which is as very tasty. I added chilli peppers which gave it a nice kick but otherwise, a solid dish! We also got the cheesecake which was very homemade! Delicious! Service was also exceptional! Great meal and experience all around.

Chicken Fricassee
Dewayne P.

I will definitely come back here again. When you asked to be seated they might try and steer you to the lounge but you should ask to sit in the main dining area so you can get the killer view! I got the chicken Fricassee. The creamy mushroom sauce was full of flavor and the chicken was juicy. As a personal preference I usually like my carrots on the softer side and they made it perfectly. I love this dish!

Pat Quinn's Restaurant & Bar Location: 5133 Spring Blvd #100, Tsawwassen, BC V4M 0A6 Clam Chowder The clam chowder had a good portion size, though it was a bit runny for my taste. However, the seasoning was quite good. Overall, I'd give it a 7 out of 10. Butternut Squash The butternut squash was delicious, with excellent seasoning. I enjoyed it a lot and would rate it an 8 out of 10. Crab Cake The crab cake was well-seasoned, fried, and crispy. It was decent but didn't stand out as much as other dishes. I'd give it a 6 out of 10. Mussels The mussels were a highlight of the meal. They were well-seasoned, had a good portion size, and tasted really good. I would rate them a 9 out of 10. Steak Unfortunately, the steak was disappointing. It was hard and chewy, despite ordering it rare. The only redeeming part of the dish was the gravy. I'd rate the steak a 3 out of 10. Service The service was good. The server was nice and attentive, earning a 7 out of 10. Venue The venue is really nice and cozy, providing a comfortable and pleasant dining atmosphere. Price The price was reasonable, earning a 3 out of 5. Verdict Overall, despite some hits and misses, I would come back for another visit

Pulled pork tacos were outstanding. Even good cold a couple of days later according to the lovely K! Definite redo!
Norm W.

Being quite the fan of the "Big Irishman" the lovely K and I ventured out to Tsawwassen to check out Pat Quinn's Restaurant and Bar a couple of months back. Our first experience knocked it out of the park for the both of us, making a return trip very necessary. Our second visit was not as delicious as the first, but still deserving of a combined four out of five stars. Parking is very close in a spacious underground parkade a minutes walk from the entrance. The restaurant is a part of the golf course, but a separate entity. The decor is filled with hockey memorabilia and a large number of photographs, some of which our hockey fanatic has never seen. You can easily surmise some of the many conversations about hockey that those photos depict and imagine Pat holding court. Our first visit the food was outstanding, and the service very good. The beef dips au jus, was unbelievable, the depth of flavour good enough to drink once done with the beef itself, and it was downed let me assure you. The beef itself was tremendous and the addition of the deep fried onion ring, and the bread a perfect match. The side salad that came with the beef was delicious with fresh berries and candied pumpkin seeds. It was a little difficult extracting everything from the narrow round vessel, but well worth the hunting to find the last bits. The Cobb Salad ordered by the lovely K was beautifully presented, plentiful and very tasty, we're going to guess it's a very popular item. Their Red Truck lager is a local favourite and a great accompaniment to the meal. We'll certainly be back again and can only hope the au jus once again inspires one to down the remains after the meal has been tucked away!

Pan Seared Scallops
Lulu L.

Pat Quinn's venue is beautiful whether day or night, I guess more at night especially during Christmas, for they have Christmas trees outside which you can go before or after meal. Inside was classy, the servers were attentive and the waiting did not take so long. For the food that we ordered, not all were impressive such as the Malaysian Chicken Satay, I think its just the same as other satay I tasted in other restaurants which is less cheaper. The coconut crusted prawn I would say is so delicious its something original from them the coconut taste was pungent with the prawn. The Pan Seared Scallops has only 5 scallops mostly potatoes would be good if it has more for the price of $33 and the 7oz Blue Dot Sirloin Steak was tasty, tender and juicy as well as the fries is so good for its parmesan taste. To conclude, it seems like your paying more for the nice venue than the food. Though I was only their once and would love to taste their other menus.

the dining area

Classic beauty in the midst of modern part of the world. Very very elegantly decorated evergreen dinning space with lounges and tables lay out. Full fledge seated bar with all kinds of liquor stacked to the top of shelves. Pretty impressed menu as there were more than expected vegetarian food items which showcased the up to date customer excellence here. The whole space is huge with a ballrooms on the sides and restaurant in the middle. We were welcomed and ushers escorted us to out table. There is whole section of tables with huge glass windows overlooking the golf course outside. Just so picturesque. Then our server came to take our order. We requested for vegetable spring rolls and Brussels sprouts with no bacon. N i must say , they were delicious beyond expectations. So We were already full but we were intrigued by cauliflower steak with herbed gnocchi. And we made the right choice. Its was so delicate and creamy . Cherry on top was the desert. Pan fried apples on buttercup cake with vanilla ice-cream ( maybe it was named something else) but i described it well. It is a must try . Overall my experience was excellent and i will definitely go again. Too good evening

Sante fe salad was amazing

The restaurant is absolutely wonderful! Our server Mike was awesome and the food is so delicious. Definitely going back. Patio ambiance is one of the best we have been to.

Sunday Prime Rib dinner
Mary C.

This was my second visit to Pat Quinn's Restaurant and Bar. In the summer, my two friends and I sat on the beautiful patio and enjoyed happy hour and the last few golfers teeing-off. This weekend, we returned along with five additional friends to partake in the Sunday Prime Rib Dinner. We all enjoyed the prime rib and mines was cooked to a perfect medium rare. Additional, the Yorkshire Pudding was amazing as it was perfectly crispy outside and moist inside. Ask nicely and you can get an extra Yorkshire Pudding which I did and woofed down quickly. I was so full but very happy! For $34, the 8oz Prime Rib dinner with buttermilk mashed potatoes, veggies and red wine jus is a good value. My only beef is that a charge of $1.50 for the red wine jus was added to the final bill but could not find this information on the menu. I'd be glad to pay the $1.50 if noted or just add this to the dinner price. Off course there is still room so a few of us shared some desserts. The cappuccino chocolate cake and baked apple pie were both delicious too. We had a fantastic server who ensured food allergies were accommodated and loved sitting in the large private room surround by hockey memorabilia. After dinner, we stroll the ground to enjoy the Festival of Lights. Our group will be returning for their New Year's Eve buffet dinner to ring in the New Year.

An excellent example of great food and service brought together with a view. I would highly recommend visiting. My favourite place for first dates or meetings.

I only went there because of it. We sat down and given menus and water. For the next 10 minutes the waiter cleared tables and seated other people. There were only two servers. Finally the waiter came over and took our drink order. Another wait and the beer I ordered was to come in a bottle. It was poured into a glass so I could only assume it was what I ordered. When he dropped our drinks off we ordered. 2 of us had the roast lamb. It was the shoulder part and it was very good, not stringy or tough. One of the better places that I have had lamb. Tortellini was ordered and an ample amount came. They ate about half. The 4th order was the Garithes Uvetsi. It looked great and it was fine, not spectacular. The bread was not that great. There was no pita or any kind of bread as an appie. The waiter was not very friendly. No coming back to the table to see how everything was. We were just left on our own. There were numerous times we tried to get the waiters attention and we failed miserably. Another long wait for our bill. Over all the food was good but service left a lot to be desired.

What a hidden gem!! Stopped in for a quick glass of wine but ended up trying a couple small bites…read more Service was absolutely fantastic. What made this place stand out to me the most was the bartender whipped up the most absolute AMAZING espresso martini I've ever had. Just happened to have a conversation about how much I love a good espresso martini. I've had many but this place wins 1st place! There was also live music later in the evening and the environment was very casual and up beat. I will definitely be returning for another espresso martini in the near future! Tons of wine options to choose from.

I heard about this place on a podcast (ITM) and wanted to go to a celebratory dinner somewhere new…read more The drive to Blaine was super easy, the location is convenient, and there is ample parking. There is definitely at least one back room, but the main dining room is a bright, airy space that has access to a patio where may even be some live music playing. The tables are gorgeous - all live edge, which might create a bit of an issue if you have short arms and are used to stealing bites across the table, but they are absolutely beautiful and a nice nod to the area. The wine list is extensive and a bit overwhelming, but the service is happy, friendly, and very knowledgeable. In fact, I love when servers don't know, admit it, and find the answer for you - it's humble and shows they really care at getting you what you want. We got the orange wine, which is a new favorite of mine. It's like a rose for reds. Rose:White::Orange:Red. More savory, still light, and best chilled. We had the beet hummus app, which is definitely best eaten with your hands. It's light and delicious. We had the miso black cod, a personal favorite, and the lasagna for dinner and while both were good, the accoutrements with the cod were the true standout. Amazing and I could probably eat two of them. As the restaurant operates on a seasonal menu, we had a strawberry rhubarb cobbler for dessert. I know there is Sunday Brunch, and I can't wait to try it. It's not the cheapest, but it's one of the nicer restaurants in Whatcom, and is definitely worth your pennies. Everything about it makes for a truly nice experience, and we'll definitely be back.

Wow. Amazing. We were on a romantic getaway to Victoria this summer and decided to stop by Bodega…read morefor lunch. We got there when it opened and the few people working that day just made the experience one to remember. Sat at the bar and had a few spectacular cocktails while sampling many meats and cheeses on their charcuterie board. Bread was perfect... ordered a refill. Everything we tried was perfect so I need to go back and try the rest of the menu. Best meal of our trip to BC.

I should start with a disclaimer - tapas is one of my absolute favorite meals, and I didn't care…read morefor some of my dishes here. HOWEVER. I also live in Washington DC (one of my favorite tapas places there is funnilly also called Bodega) and it is very possible tapas here is different from what I am used to. I haven't had tapas elsewhere in Victoria or anywhere else in Canada. I also wonder if I would have preferred its sister restaurant next door. I asked the hostess what the difference was and she said the one next door was more of a sit down family restaurant. And, to that effect, all of the indoor tables at Bodega were high tops, which I find uncomfortable, so we had to sit on the patio. The ceviche here is incredible. A standout. I have had ceviche in many places over many years and in many countries and types of restaurants, including places that just do ceviche. This may be my favorite ceviche ever. The next most impressive dish we had was a squash with pepitas and other toppings. I asked what kind of squash it was and they said they didn't know for sure because it comes from the chef's mother's farm so it can rotate. On the one hand I find this incredibly charming. On the other hand, I asked because I have dietary restrictions and cannot digest patty pan squash. They assured me it wasn't that, but their inability to tell me exactly what it was didn't engender confidence. Luckily, chatgpt was able to identify it from a photo and it was one that I know is safe for me. We ordered gambas al ajillo, which is normally one of my favorites, and I found it underwhelming. Just not very flavorful. Also I am used to it coming out in a ceramic baking dish or cast iron but this was just in a bowl which seemed odd and may contribute to why I found it less flavorful. Patatas Bravas were solid but also hard to mess up. My husband got some meat items that I didn't eat as a pescatarian but he enjoyed them. And my least favorite dish was a dish featuring albacore tuna, egg and tapenade. I normally love all three of these things and was intrigued by the fact that it was albacore vs ahi or yellow fin or some other fancier type. I ended up finding the tuna dry and tough and the olive tapenade and hard boiled egg offered a lot of the exact same types of flavors and it just wasn't a very pleasant dish to eat in my opinion. Other people might love this. I dunno. I also found service here a little chilly. This is a hard thing for me to rate because I am aware that there are significant cultural differences between Canada and the US and servers in the US are unusually effusive and attentive, in extreme cases to a point of being overbearing, whereas in Canada servers may prioritize not interrupting or getting in the way over being chatty. But even compared to other restaurants we visited in Victoria this felt a little frosty, especially when it came to my dietary restrictions. I very much got a vibe from multiple people that it was weird for me to ask questions about what was in the food or about the restaurant. All in all this wasn't bad. Other people seemed to be enjoying themselves. I think it is a very distinctive style and ambiance and it is going to be a match for some customers and not others, but I personally prefer something with warmer ambiance and more accessible dishes.
