I recently took my parents and young daughter to Victoria. I wanted to find a nice restaurant so that I could treat my parents but I didn't want it to be too stuffy or touristy. This place was the perfect discovery. Not only was the food incredible but the atmosphere and the service was a delight. They focus on fresh and local. The evening we were there it was a fundraising event for a local farm where they source some of their fresh ingredients. We enjoyed a "first of the season" baby spinach salad paired with scallops and crab. The bread accompanient was freshly made that day. My parents had the Osso Buco and it was delicious. I had farm raised chicken with wild mushroom sauce. The vegetable accompaniment was incredibly tasty and I could have had that as a main course it was so lovely. They welcomed my young daughter and catered to her meal request. The waiter knew the menu, knew his wines and recommended a wine that ended up being perfect for our meal. He was a pleasure to speak with and was passionate about what the chef/owner was up to. I can't wait to go back to Victoria just to dine there again!
