Inspired West Coast Food & Legendary Location

Our menu creations reflect the ever increasing abundance of freshness that British Columbia’s West Coast has to offer. The freshest local ingredients, paired with craft beer from some of Victoria’s finest micro-breweries, and a wine list featuring BC and globally inspired wines. Steamship Grill & Bar aims to satisfy every palate.

We were inspired by the historical significance of our surroundings. Built in 1924, the Heritage Steamship Terminal building is an important landmark in the history of Victoria, BC. Designed by Francis Rattenbury in the Beaux-Arts style, it was the building that welcomed steamship passengers from all over the world. Now open to the public with a gift shop commemorating the history, the Heritage Steamship Terminal is a great place to enjoy a delicious seafood meal.

    1st time at this restaurant - was average as best. My husband ordered the big kahuna pizza, it was well cooked, hot, it looked good but was lacking flavor. My son and I shared the the Ultimate Steak and Seafood platter for two - It was nice and hot when it arrived, the steak should have been the star - it was over cooked ( asked for rare but not raw) and it was medium well at best. The steak was not tender and was under seasoned. The tuna, salmon and snow crab were decent, the grilled shrimp were OK, and they garlic mash and fresh veg were good, but the portion of this was enough for 1 person. I think if the platter came with a decent steak, more mash and veg, and the meal was seasoned properly it would have been good value for the meal. The inside of the restaurant was nice, the patio was closed as it was Christmas day. Will try the restaurant again when the patio opens and we can sit and enjoy the view.

    Christmas dinner at the Steamship Grill has become a tradition for my daughter and me. The holiday menu is fabulous, the staff are outstanding, and we enjoy the relaxed atmosphere. Highly recommended; there's something for everyone.

    We ordered ‘off the menu’ vs Turkey offering. Again it was ‘delightful’ and such a treat!! Sitting near the kitchen window…deep respect for the hard working staff and witnessing the kitchen & wait staff all having good relations & spirit.

    Once I saw a mouse running around the restaurant. The experience was ruined for me and I couldn’t enjoy any part of being there. Our server was nice and when asked about the mouse said there was nothing she could do about it. I understood that but I couldn’t unsee that mouse running around the restaurant coming from the kitchen.

    We would have given Steamship 5 stars, however the wine list was lacking in good full-bodied red wines. The mixed seafood grill and the mussels were both excellent entrees.

    Steak was like rubber, and the mashed potatoes were not real potatoes.
