Large portions for the price. The chow mein is packed with meat and veggies.

The sausage rolls really stood out - the crust was so flaky it practically melted. And that pretzel pizza with sausage? Unexpectedly good combo. Definitely coming back for those two.

Decent breakfast and dinner, generous portions. The margarita with fresh lime was a highlight.

Highly recommend. It&rsquo;s a very popular place so be prepared to wait at least 30min, especially in the summer. The food is fresh and delicious and the portions are a decent size. I had the salmon on salad and it was the perfect amount.

The pesto linguine with prawns had perfect al dente texture. Flavors were spot on. The complimentary sourdough with herb butter was a nice touch.

Love this little spot. The grilled mackerel is my go-to&mdash;skin is always perfectly crispy and the fish so moist. They really pay attention to the details here.

A solid spot for a casual meal. The food&#39;s well-prepared, portions are decent. I appreciated the wine list - had a nice glass of red that paired well with the steak. Not a fancy place, but it works.

The pancakes were so fluffy! A cute little spot for a sweet breakfast.

Their gluten-free pizza crust is a standout. It&#39;s thin, crispy, and doesn&#39;t dry out like some others. They don&#39;t skimp on the cheese either. As someone who has to be careful, it&#39;s a solid choice.

The almond croissant was the standout. Flaky, buttery layers with a generous filling of marzipan that wasn&#39;t too sweet. It paired perfectly with a simple, strong americano. A solid choice for a quick morning bite.

The garlic soy chicken sandwich was legit. Just grabbed it for a quick lunch. The sauce is really something else, savory with a nice kick. Lived up to the buzz for sure.

The veggie burger was pretty good, tasted surprisingly meaty. Decent gluten-free options too.

Our server was so attentive to my friend&#39;s gluten allergy, double-checking everything with the kitchen. They even offered to take a few photos for us, which was a nice touch. Really made us feel looked after.

Andrea was our server and she was the best! So sweet and gave us great tips on what to order for sharing. Really made our girls&#39; night feel special. The service was just so on point.

The filter coffee here is the real deal. Super aromatic and served piping hot, just like I remember from my trip to Chennai. That first sip was a total time machine moment.

The soup selection is really good. I tried the creamy mushroom and the spicy lentil, both were solid. The space feels cozy with those big windows and wooden tables. A nice spot to just sit and relax.

Burger was cooked just right, fries were crispy. You can tell the ingredients are fresh. Simple, but they got the basics down.

The lettuce wraps were the standout. Fresh, crisp lettuce with well-seasoned filling. Hot and sour soup had good spice, but the thickness wasn&#39;t consistent. Solid lunch option near the office.

A nice little spot. The ramen was pretty good, and the staff were attentive. The space is a bit tight, but it&#39;s fine for a casual meal.

Butternut squash risotto was incredible. The jerk chicken looked good too. But that guava cheesecake... we&#39;re still talking about it. Just wow.

Great variety of options here, and service was quick. Server was polite and efficient. Solid choice for a business lunch downtown. Prices are reasonable for the location. Will stop by again when I&#39;m in Victoria.

Been coming here for years, and their braised pork with preserved vegetables is always spot on. Moist, tender, and just hits the spot every time.

Surprisingly solid Chinese food for the area. The place is spotless, which I appreciate. Had the kung pao chicken, it was actually pretty good. Didn&#39;t expect that here.

The apple fritters here are pretty good, especially when they&#39;re fresh. They do sell out quickly on weekends, so I made a point to get there early. The Boston cream was decent too, though a bit sweet for my taste.
