My husband starting going to the Blue Coast since it opened and like to frequent it at least once a month for Sunday breakfast. Since it is still new there is no line-up, you get seated right away, the staff recognize you, service is fast and happy, the crepes with raspberries, cheese and honey are the only thing I order and are so yummy! The inside is bright and sunny but the outside could use a sprucing as it blends into the scenery being set back from the street.
My husband and I just discovered this restaurant so tried it out on Sunday. It was busy but (one of the owners?) came out and acknowledged us right away and was very eager to organize everybody at the outdoor tables. He appeared to really love what he was doing. I had the cheese blintzes which were tasty but not as sweet as I prefer. It was also over $30 for both of us but all-in-all still worth it for the (almost) ocean-view and will go again.
My husband and I have been to Shine several times and it is for the most part satisfying. The winter is not the best time to go as patrons wait in the too-small foyer and keep the door open. Perhaps more space could be allocated for the waiting area in the winter. I also wish they had real maple syrup. Their blueberry pancakes are very yummy and are the only ones I've found so far since moving from Calgary. The wait-staff is also very eager and rarely do we have mistakes.
My husband and I drive from Victoria to the Prairie Inn whenever we have a hankering for a (gigantic) turkey club. We share one as they are just too huge to eat by oneself. These sandwichs are so yummy and have cranberry sauce. Our bill is under $30 with the sandwich and drinks so we're big fans!
