Unfortunately our server didn’t put our main into the kitchen so we sat over 40 minutes between our salad and appetizer and receiving our main. To the restaurant’s credit they compensated us 50 % of our food.

This is a terrific restaurant in the best location with the best food you can ever find! Waitresses were a 10++ We went back again tonight! Pork chop dish again is so wonderful best ever! Tonight we had a lemon meringue large tart for desert that was the best desert I’ve ever had! Amazing! We even bought one to eat for breakfast! Don’t miss it! Wow Foodies! Right in the heart of Old Victoria! AND go to Frankie’s for breakfast close by and order the hash Benedict and you’ll cry it’s so darn great! Victoria is clean safe and beautiful!! We loved Victoria and will be back for more. Butchart Garden is a must see too!! Stunningly gorgeous that is off the charts!

Finns was the perfect dining experience for our first night in Vancouver. Live music played in the background while we had perfectly seasoned food. We ordered the cheese toast, ribeye, lamb chops onion rings and baked potato. Our waiter was attentive and friendly. My only complaint is they didn’t offer cheese for the baked potato which was odd because they use 3 types for the cheese toast.

A bit pricey for the food received. We ordered a nice tasting seafood chowder, one as an appetizer, other as a meal. In each instance it was cool to cold. How long was it sitting on the pickup counter? Fish and chips okay, but at twice the price of another 'walk up' eatery. Clam and mussel pasta was okay. Might return. But, probably not. mjw
