    Maple pecan salmon
    Carissa K.

    Went for dinner. Unfortunately, there was a huge wait for the patio, but the inside was well spaced out and large open windows were great fir air flow. Had the Maple pecan salmon. It was surprisingly good. I've had better cooked salmon, but it was good. I had the peanut butter pie for dessert, it was fabulous. My friend had the lamb burger with sweet potato fries, it was good as well. Our server was lovely.

    Been totally renovated and new owners... Used to be the savoury. A bit pricy for what it is. Found the menu somewhat limited and the bar menu missing many options but you can ask as other drinks are available. Found the space quite nice and comfortable. It would be one very nice patio on a warm summer evening thats for sure. They are not open for breaky which is odd being connected to the hotel. And you dont want a room over it as the stink from the kitchen whafts up to the 2nd floor. But it is a nice space for dinner and drinks. The view is really nice and the servers were good.

    We have been to the AQUA Bistro a few times for afternoon appys and to try some of their signature…read morebeverages. Went to Ocean7 restaurant to give the finer dining side a try. For the most part it was very good, but fell short of a five star experience. With reservations we were seated quickly in the restaurant which was decorated for the holiday season. First thing I noticed is haw far I sunk into the seat, and I'm not a big dude. Second thing I noticed was the dirty wine glass in front of the lovely K. They took it away when it was noted with another off the table, but did not replace them. Our guests arrived and as locals they had been here on occasion and spoke highly of the place. Drinks were ordered and came out along with a bottle of wine. Still only two wine glasses, which our waiter offered to fetch, but I just gave mine to K. Should've already been dealt with. Both couples ordered the Caesar salad which we were told was big enough to share, and was. Pretty good salad, but the romaine was left large enough you had to cut it with a knife to get it anywhere close to bite sized. The entrees were good, a couple of chicken two ways, a lamb, and an eight ounce strip loin. My chicken was a little over and had no real carbohydrate on the plate. K's steak was cut right down the middle, for presentation, which she does not like as the steak cools too quickly. Overall it was good, not fantastic. I also noted the AC/ heat above our table needed a vacuum as it was very dusty, a little thing, but it's blowing air down on us. We'd give it another go, but there are things to improve upon.

    We are staying at this resort and decided to try the Aqua Bistro attached to it. We are so glad we…read moredid! Our server, Jocelyn was professional and cordial. She made excellent recommendations. We both had the Korea Fried Chicken and Rice Bowls. Delicious! For mixed drinks we had an Old Fashion and Lycee Martini. The inside has adequate seating and a well stocked bar. We had a delightful time here!

The hostess was was very nice and gave us a table with a view (which I'm sure would have been striking if it hadn't been dark unfortunately). Still, we ordered prawns and a 1/2 dozen oysters to start off with a bottle of Blue Mountain Sauvignon Blanc. (i wasn't nervous about the oysters as the north pacific is clean for raising them). For dinner my partner opted for the chicken platter that she really enjoyed; lots of fresh components and interesting small side portions. I had the scallops and pork belly that I have never had before, but would absolutely have again here. Add this restaurant to your list whether staying in the lodge or not. I agree reservations are a good idea unless you plan to go in an off time.

We came for dinner and the view of Cox Bay is unbelievable! We got to watch the sunset and it was incredible. Too bad they don't have an outdoor patio but considering the rain, wind, and storm weather in Tofino, there's probably a reason why. Decor and ambiance is cozy, elegant, airy, and timeless elegance. Service here is attentive and warm. We ordered the house made bread to start (small comes with 6 pieces) with sourdough and charred leek butter. This was really homey and comforting. I ordered the Shrimp Carbonara for my entree and my partner got the Crispy Chicken sandwich. The shrimp carbonara take on the dish is served with udon noodles, shrimp, smoked black cod, butternut squash and topped with soft egg in a miso butter, garlic, chili, and parmesan sauce. The dish was hearty, filling, flavourful, yet not too heavy. It really hit the spot and I enjoyed it quite a bit. My partner enjoyed his huge Crispy Chicken sandwich and was thrilled that they had enough hot sauce on the chicken for some kick. Come for the views, food, or service - you can't go wrong. They also currently have a special multi-course for under $50/person from 5pm to 6pm.
