   Wonderful date night at B+B. Staff were friendly and made our rare date night more special with an amuse bouche. I ordered the falafel bowl again and it didn't disappoint. A perfect balance of flavours and texture/crunch.

   We were given the old happy hour menu with the new one. We were told we could not order from the old one. The new one was less to be desired. I came regularly for the pizza prawn pizzete which is no longer on the menu. Where the 3 prawns to expensive? We ordered the margarita pizza which was under cooked but we ate it as we were starving. The waitress didn't come back until we were almost done. She was nice though so I’m fine with her. We took back the fries and special sauce which was disgusting. We won’t be returning. Too bad as the ambiance is lovely.

   Food was acceptable. Service was slow. Bill was incorrect. Too many tables or too few staff. I won’t go back anytime soon.

   I can't rave enough about this restaurant! It's hands down our favourite spot to eat in Victoria. The atmosphere is lovely, and the food is absolutely delicious. Yes, it’s a bit on the pricey side, but honestly, that seems to be the norm everywhere these days. We always have a fantastic time here!

   Dinner experience was amazing. Our server Darriene took great care of us, drinks and food service was prompt. Duck confit on the new menu was a 10/10!

   The duck confit was not cooked to the fork-tenderness that should be expected in this dish and the spices coating the confit overwhelmed the flavour of the duck.

    We dined inside the restaurant, and the location and view at Boom and Batten are excellent. The ambiance and service were both very good as well. I found the meals to be a bit expensive given that the portions are quite small. I would return and likely dine outside on the patio this time.
