We chose the tasting menu and wine pairings and were astounded by the refined complexity of the flavoura and the beautiful variation and presentation of the dishes. One of my top five meals ever.

In an environment, much like an elegant cottage, the level of service and quality of food are exceptional. Perfect portions, the flavours are fresh and combinations unique. This was our second experience with Joanna (wine steward) and her recommendations and knowledge are impressive. If you like Caesar’s - the horseradish infused vodka “Apollo Caesar” is a taste sensation. With unparalleled views and warm ambiance - both dinner and brunch were memorable meals - Eggs Benedict, daily fresh pressed juices in the morning and beef tenderloin/pork stand out from our dinner! We will be back...

Food and Service excellent. Unfortunately if you do not stay at the Wick, you can only get reservations at 5pm or after 930pm - at least in season...and you do not get the best seats. Still worthwhile a visit. Only downside was that dishes are served pretty fast one after the other. I wish that would leave more time inbetween the dishes. Food and Service is outstanding. Will come again for sure (if we get a reservation as not house guests)

Everything was perfect! Just a bit disappointed no to have been able to get a table next to the window, even by booking 3months in advance. But the all experience was fantastic otherwise.

This is the best restaurant I've ever been to all things considered: view, food, service, and special treatment for our wedding anniversary. There were so many special touches beginning with a special Anniversary Tasting Menu and special "Happy Anniversary" desserts. We loved it!

We love this room.. this is the nicest dinning room on the west coast.. the food is only ok, they aren’t any where near the level of cuisine at other relais et chateaux properties on that level.. But the view and service is always good and I keep hoping maybe the food will match the prices one day!

Absolutely top notch food and service, and of course the view is incredible too. We did a culinary tour of Tofino - Wolf in the Fog, Sobo, Shelter. None of those can compare to The Pointe. The Pointe offers flavourful, well balanced, thoughtful food with top quality ingredients. It is a world class restaurant and staff has the struck the right balance of friendly and welcoming while still providing very professional service. The other local restaurants are trying but they aren't even in the same league in terms of the food quality or service. We had heard a lot about Wolf in the Fog but were very disappointed. It has a fun vibe but the food was poor.

The service was fabulous a very great experience overall. The tuna tare tare was in my opinion beyond fabulous. My boyfriend had the veal & I had the sablefish. The wine selection was excellent too! Thanks so much for a pleasant meal & what a lovely view we had too.

We have eaten here every year since it opened in 1996. Under the current leadership of chef Warren Barr, The Pointe has maintained a superb menu, exceptional service, and a great wine list showcasing BC and other west coast wines. This is a very special place, and we cannot recommend it more highly.
