    Good spot for drinks after work. Long wait to be seated for our reservation (arrived a few minutes early, then stood around for 15 mins waiting to be seated on the empty patio). Server was friendly and drinks came out promptly. Food was tasty.

    It’s was excellent from the beginning to end. We were a group of over 20 celebrating our son’s University graduation celebration and the Barrel room was the perfect spot. The food and drinks all were delicious and our server was amazing. I would definitely go back and use them for a big celebration again!!!

    Hi Kim!! Thanks so much for the kind words. I'm happy that you enjoyed your service from Molly. Conratulations on your son's graduation from UVic! Yourself, Frank & Shirley and the rest of your group were a delight. I hope we get the chance to host you again soon. Cheers

    Food and drinks were great, and the general service once seated was solid. But the front-of-house process needs serious work. There are two clearly marked queues — one for reservations, one for walk-ins — but that distinction seemed meaningless to the hostess. We waited 5–10 minutes at the front of the reservations line while she helped three separate groups from the walk-in queue. It would’ve taken all of three seconds to check if we had a booking and send us to the desk to be seated — which is exactly what she eventually did, after making us feel invisible. Maybe she was new, but either way, staff training needs to better reflect the purpose of a two-line system. As it stands, it defeats the point of reserving at all.

    We ate here two different times in the same week and both times, the service was terrible and extremely slow, even though it wasn't at all busy in the restaurant.

    Justin was outstanding! He was exceptionally communicative, attentive, and personable throughout our visit. While the food and drinks were excellent, his service truly stood out — we’d return just to be served by him again.
