The seafood chowder was also disappointing two people in our group had it, It had a strange flavor and wasn't something we enjoyed. Unfortunately, the fish and chips didn't make up for it. The batter was very greasy, and one piece of fish on each of our plates was mushy instead of flaky and fresh. There were four of us that got it. The coleslaw had no flavor as well. The tarter sauce was really good. Overall, the long wait, the unusual plate-sharing policy, the odd-tasting chowder, and the poor quality of the fish made for an underwhelming experience. We were expecting much better.

The third issue is the different lunch menu for over 8 people where they've taken some of the grill options out. The rationale given to us was they didn't want us using all of the grills ??

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.

So we figured we would return and try the cafe for lunch. I think they share the same kitchen, as the menu looked awfully similar! Service was a bit better in the pub, and it had nicer views. Tried the clam chowder, which had a good amount of clams and veggies. It had a nice richness to it: http://www.yelp.ca/biz_photos/SGlMCuTv8PV1ivMJdIDOFQ?select=MusBNdfSkCf2XtHVNxogrg Boo for them charging extra for a slice of bread with the chowder. Uncool. The lamb burger platter (http://www.yelp.ca/biz_photos/SGlMCuTv8PV1ivMJdIDOFQ?select=KDN8_-MvR9uKPbLur9Mxqg) came with a side salad. The salad was good and very fresh, and included kaiware as a nice touch. The burger was a bit of a disappointment. It was a thin commercial style thin burger and was overcooked. They said it was served with tzatziki on the menu, but came with some semi melted feta cheese on top instead - which didn't really work well at all. Really unfortunate burger as the platter was otherwise a decent one. Photo: http://www.yelp.ca/biz_photos/SGlMCuTv8PV1ivMJdIDOFQ?select=4JQ_pm5VuOS1wmFUTGwTvA I suppose I would have been disappointed if I had ordered the lamb burger in the pub next door - but even writing that off, I think the view in the pub is nicer and the prices are the same. Also the service was much better in the pub. Go figure!

The caprese salad was local and inspired by the outstanding ingredients as was the green salad. Finally the eggplant Parmesan with pesto noodles was inspired.
