    Items were well plated and presented; coursing and pace through the meal was very good. Thoroughly enjoyed everything, but the ribeye, tuna, and endive salad in particular. Wonderful vibe in the room, and service was very good and respectful of our conversations.

    It’s nice ambiance. Very cozy. Service was great. Be aware that when you order that you specify how you want the food brought out. Because it’s tapas style the veg options were served first. My husband’s intended main was served and mine not for 10 mins later. You really need to be clear if you aren’t sharing a main. The food was good. Espresso was very nice. I found it a bit over priced but it was a nice night out.

    We are always grateful for the quality of the food and for the knowledge of the wait staff. We brought our Japanese exchange chaperones here for a unique Victoria dinign expereince. The food and the ambiance is always great.

    One of our dining favs when in Victoria. Every plate is shared by the table. A great way to sample many dishes. Our table of 4 orders 4 apps and 3 mains and that is tons. Service excellent!
