Where to eat: the 50 best restaurants in Duncan

Mixed Feelings About Genoa Bay Café: A Perfect Setting, But the Food Missed the Mark We recently visited Genoa Bay Café and found ourselves in one of the most beautiful and peaceful locations imaginable. Nestled right on the water in Genoa Bay, we were seated on the outdoor deck overlooking the marina, surrounded by treed mountains and basking in sunshine. The setting truly is spectacular. The kind of place you could sit for hours, soaking in the views and enjoying the atmosphere. The staff were genuinely warm and welcoming, offering attentive and friendly service throughout our visit. The energy on the deck was lively and inviting, almost like being in a cozy lounge, with neighboring tables engaging in relaxed conversation that added to the experience. Unfortunately, the food didn't quite live up to the surroundings. I opted for the Bird's Eye Cove Highland Beef Burger. While the bacon jam added a nice touch, the burger itself was just okay, nothing I couldn’t get at a dozen other places. It was good, not great, and didn’t feel like it matched the creativity or uniqueness the location deserves. My wife had the Falafel Plate, which sounded promising on the menu. While each component was well prepared: beet hummus, sesame ginger salad, mango salsa, and pickled vegetables. Her takeaway was that the flavors didn’t really complement each other. It felt like a collection of good ingredients that didn’t quite come together as a dish. Our search continues since my favourite restaurant closed permanently and Genoa Bay cafe left us wanting more.

We ordered two bowls of seafood chowder and Parmesan fries. The seafood chowder smelled and tasted burnt/smoky. Not sure if that’s their style but it wasn’t good. The fries were mid. Good location overlooking the bay and the mountains and the service was okay. Went on a Sunday evening around 5:30 and it was too busy at that time.

We just love this place, and will often just end up on a drive out there! We go for the Humboldt squid and the carrot cake! All the food is delicious, so you might be full and not have room for dessert but just take my advice and get a carrot cake to go!

We had a great lunch here, Gord was friendly and fast with all aspects of the service. The food was great, I had a 1/2 rack of tender ribs and my wife the burger special, it must have been very good because she never offered me a single bite!

On a beautiful sunny day, enjoy the outdoor seating on the deck. Service was super friendly, food was great.

An amazing little gem in the marina. The staff are lovely and warm. They feel like they are invested in the diners and the business which is nice. The menu is fantastic and the food is above expectations. The short rib is my personal fave. Wish it stayed open later, but that's just me!

Amazing service, food, and location. We had a beautiful table by a window overlooking the bay - an incredible setting for a cafe! Our group ordered the calamari, coconut prawns, mussels, and fish and chips, and it was all delicious! Our server was hilarious, which added to the wonderful experience.

We had a great experience at Dog House! It has a very welcoming atmosphere and a family friendly vibe. The food is great too! They have quite a bit of good choices to pick from in their menu. They are most famous for their desserts!!

Amazing service🔥🔥🔥The food was what I expected and more♥️♥️♥️A nice portion👌🏽👌🏽👌🏽One very satisfied customer💯💯💯 The Steak done right and with the veggies👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽Menu is well done and nice options It's a very nice desert 🔪🥧🥄

Good home-cooked food. Extremely large menu. Servers very very helpful and super friendly.

Old school charm, wholesome food, hashbrown potatoes, made from scratch, not frozen. Heck even the bottle of HP sauce was old school glass bottle. I arrived hungry, and left very full. Good coffee, and real coffee creamer (not half n half). Great prices, very reasonable. The waitress was awesome, I ask for my eggs dead, and she got it spot on, over-hard, bacon crisp, i want expecting a carafe of coffee, as I don't drink a lot of coffee, but it was a nice old school touch. This is the go-to place in Duncan for old school charm, their pies look amazing too, nice big slices, and reasonable prices on all their food. I might have to stop for dinner before heading back up island. I wish my town had a great place like the Dog House. So far I've not been impressed by restaurants in Duncan, until now. I'll be back here again.

Delicious food as always. Service was great Appies were on point. Bottomless pop(soda)

Well, I’ll tell you what — the food here was absolutely divine! I haven’t had a meal that good in ages. The roast was amazing, and that dessert? Mercy, it was to die for. The chef surely knows what they’re doing. However, I must say, my whole experience was spoiled by something downright unseemly. There was a short little blonde girl wandering around the place, and I couldn’t help but notice she had some sort of white substance under her nose. Very strange and quite disturbing, if you ask me. It looked terribly unprofessional, and frankly, I was shocked management allowed that. Such a shame, because the food was top-notch. But after seeing that sort of thing, I won’t be coming back. I may be old-fashioned, but I do expect a bit of decency when I dine out!

Went for breakfast, it was pretty busy but we were served quickly by friendly staff. Had a bit of sticker shock for the prices of breakfast, but the quantity and quality of food made it worth it. They do not pull punches or skimp on anything. We didn't have any pie or baked goods, but holy cow they look amazing. Great all round family restaurant.

Super cute spot, and there frozen to go goods are always delightful! Definitely recommend the frozen Dhal soup! The hot food is often very large, and I always feel I could have shared! The drinks are great! And don’t forget to stop into the cute bookshop while waiting for your food!

Great little bakery and cafe. Vegan, gluten-free. We are not into the vegan lifestyle but were looking for Gluten free options. The Quesadilla was really good. The rice noodle bowl was ok and could have had heartier vegetables added. The Nanaimo bar was good. The crimson tea was delicious. Overall a decent choice.

Such a cozy gem in the heart of Duncan. The atmosphere is warm and inviting. I love how the walls are decorated with local paintings and art, which gives the space a creative and vibrant touch. The food is fresh, hearty, and full of flavor, with lots of thoughtful options for different diets. Their baked goods are simply amazing—perfect with a cup of their rich, smooth coffee. The staff are friendly and welcoming, making the whole experience even more enjoyable. A wonderful place to relax, soak in the atmosphere, and enjoy delicious food.

There must be new owners because the usual “granola type staff” have vanished. The ones who believed the motto of “food into your body should be healthy and uplifting” are gone. Replaced by a baseball hat wearing manager and new staff who make drinks wrong. The portions are smaller while the prices are higher. It used to be a favorite stop when I travelled up island. Now I will be avoiding it! Booo new owners!! Goodbye goodwill

I came across Garage & Café while walking around Duncan, and it turned out to be such a lovely surprise! From the outside, I didn’t expect much, but inside the café was beautiful, lively, and full of tasty looking drinks and food. The staff were also super friendly. I ordered a matcha latte and a few slices of pizza. The latte was made so pretty, not too sweet, and I loved the soft green color while drinking it. The pizza was honestly way better than I expected I would definitely recommend it! Next time, I’m excited to try more items on their menu.

I have been to this cafe bakery many times in the past; the food was healthy, attractive and yummy; and today was no exception. They have prepackaged frozen goods, freshly made meals and gluten free meals. Healthy healthy food, not over salted and not over cooked veggies. For some people used to salty fast foood this will not be what you are accustomed to. However I like my food perfectly cooked and not overly salted since I need a low Sodium diet.

Always top notch at the garage! Superb service, lots of friendly faces, the best food made with locally grown ingredients, and always a new drink to try. The atmosphere is so welcoming and inclusive, definitely something for everyone! Highly recommend the pizza - and the quiche. And the focaccia. Oh, and definitely the green salad. :P You really can't go wrong with trying anything. So FRESH!!

Have visited York St Diner many times over the years. The food was pretty decent and it used to be a bustling diner. It had been quite some time since visiting so this review is based on my current experience. I had the Chicken and Waffles and my partner had the Going Bananas - the usual dishes we would order. The food was overall pretty good. The service and the atmosphere was a bit lack- luster. It was kind of like the right moves were being made but with zero passion. Would be willing to give York Street another try.

The stuff was super friendly and it was a cozy restaurant. We went there for a brunch and ordered two sausages with two eggs and skillet with spinach and feta. Both were very tasty. The sausages were not just regular breakfast sausages. They were deep fried. The skillet was a huge volume. I couldn’t finish all by myself.

Very nice little dinner, comfortable atmosphere. All waitresses were excellent, providing a smiling friendly service and quick catering. Some of the better eggs Benedict I’ve ever come across, and the chicken and waffles were top notch. This place has it going on, I will return when I’m in the area again. No need to go to any chain restaurant when there’s a place like this in town.

Wouldn’t have picked it out on first look. Referred by a friend. Convenient location. Good parking. Generous breakfast. Well priced. Tasty. Coffee is decent. Staff were friendly and attentive. Following vacc pass protocol. Sadly not doing supper anymore temporarily do to lack of business and the vacc pass. The decor is tired but I would recommend for breakfast place.

Rating based on food only (the decor is dated, and frankly a little perplexing). The portion was huge, my food was served on a literal platter. Everything cooked to perfection. Best bacon I’ve had out in a long time. Thick sliced! Hash browns done very well. Coffee was decent. They were short staffed but food still came quickly and very pleasant service. I’ll be back for sure.

Wonderful food and exceptional service! Best chicken and waffles I’ve ever had. Beautiful hand breaded chicken. Large portions.

I was their first customer to experience a brand new item to the menu. A vegan burger like you have never experienced. Every bit of the burger is 💯 vegan. No need to ask them to remove mayonnaise or regular cheese as all sauces and cheese are vegan too. My wife and I were at this restaurant a week ago visiting with family, and she complained about the lack of vegan options. The York St Diner responded with a vegan burger.

Our favourite spot! We live outside Duncan but it’s absolutely worth the trip. Delicious food, beautiful presentation and exceptional cocktails every time!! Kind staff and great music. A MUST TRY 🙌🏻

5-ALARM PERFECTION AT THE OLD FIREHOUSE 🔥 Duncan’s best-kept secret just set the gold standard. From the moment we walked into the Old Firehouse, it felt like we were stepping into a vibe that hits that rare, perfect note: elevated but unpretentious, energetic but intimate. Huge shoutout to Owner-turned-Mixology-Mastermind Jeff, who absolutely crushed it behind the bar — every cocktail and mocktail was a handcrafted work of art that could hold court in any top-tier city. We’re talking serious flavour fireworks here. And April — what can we say? Her service made us feel like VIPs who owned the joint. She read the room, anticipated every move, and wrapped the whole evening in the kind of hospitality you can’t teach: pure instinct, heart, and grace. The food? Next level. Every bite was a flex of flavor and presentation. The kitchen is clearly playing in its own league, balancing creativity with pure culinary muscle. Combine that with an ambience that feels like cozy meets cool, and you’ve got an absolute home run. If you haven’t experienced Firehouse Grill yet, fix that immediately. Thank you, Jeff, April & team! You crushed it. — Ray & Vanessa

Greatest cocktails in Duncan! I love a good cocktail, and the Spicebox banana pineapple sour is my absolute favourite drink ever! The food is made fresh and the menu is authentic, nothing you can find elsewhere ! I would have taken a picture of my dinner but I ate it too quickly lol

WOW! We stopped by here with no expectations, we were just looking for some late dinner. They greeted us right away and even pulled over a second table for us when they saw we were playing a board game at our table. We ordered the lango to start and then the gnocchi with added steak. Everything was cooked to perfection and really flavourful! We both have worked in various restaurants in Vancouver and are somewhat foodies and I have to say, this place is top notch. Every single part of the dish was cooked with care. I wish I could remember our servers name, but I want to add that she is an asset to your restaurant - really hospitable and kind. She went above and beyond pulling that table over for us. Love this place!

Another anniversary, another trip to the old firehouse! Everything we ordered was excellent and fully devoured. The daily cocktails were creative and complex and fun! My favourite book store turned into my favourite restaurant. Sorry about the pics, food was so good it was partially eaten before I could get my phone out!

The Old Firehouse was a lucky shot on our tour through Duncan. I can admit, we would have regretted not going here. The food is simply amazing. Local and presented like an art piece on a plate. The service is warm welcoming and a really interesting chat is always around the corner. My wife and I both highly appreciate the use of local products and the story behind the wines. A casual evening that turned into a romantic and fascinating dinner in our honeymoon. We are looking forward to be back soon.

What a charming little restaurant - such a treat to have somewhere to go in Duncan with consistently delicious food and a warm, inviting atmosphere. I always get the daily pasta which is freshly made and delicious but everything on the menu is tempting. Great selection of wines, some local, and great service too.

A good, solid breakfast! Well executed diner food. This hidden gem, tucked away in the Duncan Ramada, is worth seeking out. Clean, with a rustic/vintage ambiance. We were given a choice of indoor or outdoor seating in the inner courtyard. The servers were attentive and pleasant. I judge a breakfast place on their hash-browns and these guys passed the test. Perfectly cooked. Will definitely come again.

I rarely give 5 stars but the other day my family and I went here for dinner and we had the best service from a male server and the yummiest of food. I find when we order water many servers auto assume we are being cheap and will give a crappy tip when that isn't the case. We just don't like drinks out for the price and size you get it's not worth it and it does make it more expensive to eat out. Anyways top notch service today. If you haven't been here you should go.

Really outstanding breakfast and super friendly service. It’s located within the Ramada but it’s worth going to for breakfast even if you’re not staying there. Free coffee refills I ended up having 3 cups because it’s quite good!

Absolutely fantastic food and prices! First time here! Won't be the last! Never had better extra crispy hash browns than with my Asparagus and Eggs Benedict here today! Mmmm! my friend is a foodie and LOVED her lamb burger!

We’re new to the area so relied on the web to help make our choice. The webpage menu was easy to read on a phone or tablet, pictures are good & accurate. The staff are very pleasant & helpful! They checked back with us during our visit to make sure we had all we needed, including coffee & water refills. (Not so often as to be annoying). The meal was huge & delicious! We had the “Frito Bandito Burrito”. It was very crispy & stuffed full, the potatoes chunks were fried nicely also. They have a good house salsa sauce & also have Frank’s Red Hot sauce (my favourite) & ketchup. I brought my leftovers home to eat later for dinner. Note: also noticed there is a sign up clearly saying EVERYONE is welcome.

Wonderful little diner with incredible food and super friendly staff. Our server was insanely friendly. The home made hot sauce was incredible, and the server snuck us a couple extra which made our day. Very diverse menu with something for everyone! This little diner makes me wish I lived on Vancouver Island!

I wish I'd tried this place sooner. I've only been once, for breakfast, but I was pretty blown away with the food-for-value. I had the breakfast poutine for $9 and it was very tasty, and filling. The servers were friendly, service prompt, and I like what they've done with the interior: rustic but not tacky. One of the best breakfasts in Duncan.

Dropped in for halibut and chips. Was greeted by friendly staff and seated right away. She brought us menus but I noticed the special on the blackboard and ordered right away. We ordered drinks at the same time. We got our happy but still no drinks, We got our fish n chips but still no drinks. Sp when the server asked us if there was anything else they could get us. I reminded her of the drinks. Thus the 4/5 stars. The fries were crispy and the right potato to give the right flavor. The fish Halibut was tender and moist the batter just the right crunch cooked to perfection. All in all the food was great and the missed drinks not the end of the world. Would I go back again definitely.

The fish and chips were excellent. I would say this is the best I have had anywhere. We shared a two piece cod and an order of mushy peas. The fries were freshly cooked and nicely salted and were hot, chunky, and crispy. The fish was crispy and not hard, and also moist. The mushy peas are made in house and NOT microwaved. Yes! Finally! And lastly the ice water was quite refreshing. The difference in taste compared to city water was notable. The bill was about $30 for two of us and we were happily, full. The washroom was nice and clean. We will definitely be back.

Best decision I made trying to find a place for lunch. The guys working there were amazing, great service. The halibut was flaky, soft, lightly buttered, delicious. The shrimp and prawns perfectly cooked. 5 starts every single time.

I had Halibut with coleslaw and my friend had cod & chips. Table was set with a bottle of malt vinegar and a bottle of tartar sauce. Don't forget to check the board on the wall as it displays the daily specials!

Absolutely loved the experience at Salty Fish and Chips The fish was perfectly crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, and the chips were golden and delicious. Everything tasted fresh and was served hot. The staff were friendly and welcoming, and the service was quick. The cozy atmosphere made it even more enjoyable. Highly recommend this place for anyone craving. Authentic and tasty fish and chips!

Visiting the area and traveling through from Victoria to Comox and were hit with the hungrys and we found Salty's. A very non descript location in a small strip mall on the highway. We thought...why not! We were certainly not disappointed. From the moment we entered and noticed that every table was occupied we knew we had stumbled upon something great. We were greeted promptly, given a place to sit and within a very few minutes were seated at a table. The service was prompt and friendly. The menu...not extensive after all it is a fish and chip (seafood) restaurant...and that is what we wanted. The food, excellent. The best fish and chips we have had. If you are looking for high end atmosphere and a spectacular view...this may not be your location. But if you want friendly, prompt service and excellent fish and chips try Salty's Fish and Chips on the highway south end of Duncan.

Update: Since the original review. We ate here a few times since as our food stop to and from Victoria. The prices has gone up since but not surprising with the inflation issues of 2022. However it's still great fish and chips even without the ayce Tuesday. I recommend going for the halibut it's worth the extra money. The tarter sauce issue I had with them on my original review is not an issue now. It seems like it might of been that day but since I like the tarter sauce. Original review: We came on Tuesday for the all you can eat for $16, but due to Covid-19 it's not offered. We decided to still give them a try. My wife ordered the West Coast Bisque (Mix seafood thick soup) $4.5 and British Traditional (2 Hadcod, Panko Shrimp, slaw and chips) $22.75. I ordered the 2 pieces Cod, slaw and chips $17.75. The Bisque was pack full of seafood and flavor in a small bowl. It came out piping hot and we really enjoyed it. The British Traditional is basically 2 pieces Hadcod, slaw and chips plus $4 for Panko Shrimp. Definitely worth the extra $4 if you are hungry because they give a good amount of it. Panko Shrimp is was good along with the slaw. Both fish had great meat size, lightly batter and oil was fresh. The two thing we didn't like much was the chips and tartar sauce. The fries lacked a bit of flavor. However I believe you can substitute for onion rings or more slaw as the other tables did that. The tartar sauce was not the best I had. The sauce is the 2nd most important thing! Which is what kept me from giving it 5 stars. If you are undecided between the two fish. Me and my wife think it's worth the extra $1 for the Hadcod. It had a lighter and less fishy taste vs Cod. Halibut the best, but also comes with a high price, but Hadcod is a nice balance of quality and value. Stay away from Pollock if you see it offered. Service was quick and friendly. I am glad we tried them out and hope they bring back the Tuesday all you can eat for $16, but I doubt I can eat more than 2-3 pieces of Cod!

I am so sad! I wish I realized how good this place was sooner. The staff are very friendly and knowledgable, and that coconut cashew curry was exactly what I needed. There is a small parking lot, and the whole atmosphere was top notch. I loved the light fixtures and choice of colour. If you are a local and haven't tried this place yet you're missing out. I need to try that sweet chilli sauce next time! And the peanut sauce, and the sesame...

We were looking for a new restaurant to try out, and that's when we found this amazing place i can't say, "Enuff about how good the food was. This is a" must try for sure !!!! This has become my next best restaurant to go to please check it out the staff and service were amazing and everything was so freshly made !! FEB, 19 2025 Hi there we have been back to this restaurant many times after my first review i have had many friends with me to have dinner here everyone has enjoyed the meal Great prices great people great service, and most of all great food you will love it here i have added more pics my favorite dish is the coconut chicken curry dish everyone should try this dish for sure !!

Once again amazing service. Wonderful food. Tried the Tempura shrimp with the sauce! It. Was. Wonderful! Definitely our new favorite spot in town. Owner takes pride in his food and it shows!

Speedy service, excellent food, great portions! Owner was extremely friendly and helpful with the menu! Both my husband and I enjoyed the chow mein and fried rice bowls with steak and shrimp! (Both were amazing!) I absolutely recommend stopping here if you're looking for a healthy bite to eat! 😄

My sister and I ordered takeout for pickup. It was ready on time, service was great! They even offered us extra sauce! So friendly:) we had the sweet and sour chicken and the teriyaki chicken and both were delicious!! Crispy veggies and excellent sauce. Highly recommend this place!!

Husband and I ordered take-out today. I had stir fry with prawns and he had sweet chili chicken and noodles which he raved about. As always mine was delicious and I love the fact that I can order prawns which are not deep fried in a batter. Service is excellent, very helpful in ordering.

Owner and staff are very friendly. We were a larger party of 5 adults, 1 child, and 2 infants/toddlers; the staff were very patient with us and extremely helpful in getting the kids meal out quickly. Food was good, had the teriyaki chicken stir fry - mild on the menu is very mild. If you can handle a small amount of heat perhaps try a medium instead of the mild. It's nice to have a place with some very mild options though, for those that can't handle any type of heat at all. Downsides are few and far between. Front door is very hard to open due to the pressure from the industrial range hood (needed to stop the place from being smokey), have one high chair which is great but unfortunately no change table in the bathroom. Will definitely be back.

Stopped in on our way up the coast. We had a burger, chicken sandwich and avocado toast. We sat outside on the patio, surrounded by flowers and greenery. It was a relaxing, beautiful place to eat brunch. The food was okay - could have used more salt on almost everything but the ingredients were fresh - loved the homemade buns. Would come back to try more of the menu.

Sensational Brunch with some traditional as well as unique offerings. Feel like eating outside? They even have some lap blankets to use while you eat. Loved their Duck Benedict with a cherry infused Duck cooked in its own fat. Oh. So. Good! Lots of good energy, vibes, and light in this place! Photos included #RockFromRI

Duncan’s gem! We have eaten here several times and the dining experience has never been a disappointment . The lineup is worth the wait because the food is delicious, a nice selection of beverages, and the staff are top notch - they operate like a well oiled machine and very friendly. A must try when you’re in the area. Patio seating is nice.

Delicious meal, standard price, and the staff was wonderful. We ordered eggs Benedict, chicken burgers and a andwich. Everyone in my group loved their meal. My chicken burger was the best I have had in a long time. Would definitely go back.

Thoroughly enjoyed our meal at Brunch on 3rd. A discouraging line-up for a table to start that went surprisingly quick...ended very satisfying.

Such a lovely spot! Great food, friendly staff, and it has a really nice atmosphere.

The flights were the highlight of the visit. The mimosa flights were good, but the Italian soda flights were exceptional, with the white-colored peach and raspberry flavors standing out. The Caesar flights were also delicious, especially the smoked whiskey Caesar, which was the standout. As for the food, the beef dip was decent but lacked flavor. The Duck & Cover Benny was disappointing, as the flavors didn’t quite come together harmoniously. However, the Salmon Benny was the best of what we ordered. Overall, it’s a great place for brunch, and the flights are definitely worth trying.

Great spot if you’re craving Indian food. The flavors are authentic and the dishes are served fresh and hot. Portions are generous and the prices are fair for the quality. The place has a cozy vibe and the staff are friendly and attentive. Definitely one of those restaurants you’ll want to come back to for a comforting meal

What to say, we were starving after a long drive… we went to this restaurant based on the reviews… and our expectations gone from 100 to 30… fish pakora have more flour than fish.. kofta is not up to the mark… we thought of having lots of food but ended up having only 3 to 4 items and then went to eat pizza again… service and atmosphere are better but for food I want to give 0.5 stars if possible

Really good food and ambiance. The servers are pretty hospitable and were very quick . They took care of our order specifications “vegan”. The menu could have more vegan options as Indian cuisine is full of vegan options as alternatives are found easily. Pro tip to add more Hakka Chinese options. * favour of garlic in daal needed to be reviewed * Would recommend this place to a lot of people

They recently renovated and it's beautiful! Their food has always been incredible with lots of flavor and great portions. We order via door dash often and take out and great food every time. I Have tried other Indian cuisine restaurants in town and always come back to Devotional. I Could not recommend more.

We've come a few times to this lovely little restaurant, as my son absolutely loves traditional Indian curry. We were very pleasantly surprised this time to see they have completely renovated the space! I absolutely love the rich colour's and funky wall decor and especially the new booths and tables!! The food was great and fairly fast. Definitely worth a try :) good date night or special dinner out now. We will be back.

Such good flavours, portions, and service. The staff were so kind and professional. We forgot our leftovers and they ran them out to our car before we left. Highly recommends!

We stumbled across this place by accident traveling through Duncan one time. Since then, we make a point of coming whenever we can! Arguably the best Indian food I have ever had in a restaurant. Highly recommended

I was on a trip to duncan for the day and was directed to come here and i enjoyed my meal. The service was fast and the guy at the counter was friendly.

Great food, better people. I just had a simple breakfast muffin and coffee and it was amazing. The prices are more than reasonable. With how expensive everything is right now, its nice to see a smaller local place not rise their prices like crazy. Would highly recommend.

Very good soup and sandwich. Best in town . Fair prices as well. I’m kinda upset I’ve lived here for two years and just found out about it. I look forward to a light lunch there again. I love that you can do half portions

The sandwiches are stacked, and the soups are great. All made in house. Their bread is so soft and fluffy! I especially love the turkey sandwich and jalapeno cheddar soup! Great service as well. Highly recommend!

Exceeded expectations. The guy was exceptionally helpful in helping us with the order. Would recommend for a lunch over any chain cafe. We’ve got a coconut chicken curry soup, and a beef sandwich. Food was excellent.

Concentrated more on their skipthedishes orders and all we could order in a lunch hour timeframe was soup. Told us it would take 45 min fot a sandwich.

The best sandwiches and ice cream in town. Great service as well 5 star all the way. Owner is super sweet and goes above and beyond to make the customer happy..

Dropped in for a Dinner with the Cowichan Chamber sip and dine. Food was very tasty, Our server was on point with food orders and drinks. We had a great time visiting other chamber members and the spot was Cosy and fit us all in their private loft. A good spot for events.

Great family restaurant - Cod burgers, Tuna Tacos were super tasty. They know how to deep fry without making a greasy mess. The calamari was also good witb a super light and peppery batter. Reasonable prices.

Gluten free /dairy free chicken burger was amazing. Staff excellent, extremely knowledgeable about food limitations and very accommodating.

Food was 6 out of 5. Had the spicy chicken sandwich and the Philly cheese steak. Amazing. Chicken was perfectly cooked and juicy. Although the Appetizer never showed up. Service was painfully slow. 0 out of 5. Took 15 min from seating to order drinks (2 glasses of beer) took another 10 min for the drinks to show up. Disappointing. We were there at 4:30pm on a Saturday evening and the resturant was not busy. There appeared to be 4 servers that spent more time talking behind the bar instead of checking on the clients.

The last two times I've been pretty disappointed in the amount both times the side of fries. The first time was supposed to be a large and it looked like a small and this time came with my meal and it again looks not even like an actual side of fries with my meal. Super disappointing. I guess you really have to eat in to get the full service and the full intended portions or out of luck the last two times for some weird reason ☺️😅 other than that they have amazing food for years and years to come. Incredible service. Just needs to work on the portions and making sure everyone gets the right amount of portions each and every time!

Great service and good food from my experience just popping in Duncan.

The food was mostly terrible. My gf and me or the gyro... I've never had one so bad. My gf sent hers back and got the blue cheese flat bread..also awful, to much blue cheese and over sweetend walnut. A dish that they were trying to hard is the best way to describe it. The nachos were alright. The service was ok.

After the farmers markets my brother and I discovered the place. It had a chill vibe and a fun playlist in a background. I had the turkey pot pie and salad. The crust was soft and flaky, absorbing all that delicious gravy marinated turkey. It was followed by bourbon peach cobbler. Washed it down with the spiciest ginger beer. I love a ginger beer with bite! I was very happy.

Lunch out at Craig Street Brew Pub! Excellent service and the food portions were huge. I think the Caesar Salad needs a different dressing as it was very bland. Other than that the food was really good! Not much parking even for on a late Wednesday morning. I really enjoyed the entire experience !

A nice establishment for a good meal💯💯💯Great service♥️♥️♥️Food was nicely portioned and very delicious👌🏽👌🏽👌🏽 Yam fries i enjoyed🙂🙂🙂The sandwich hit the craving👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽Very cool atmosphere😎

Spring salad was a bit wilty, and the tomato tasted like goat cheese—maybe it was handled near it or stored together? The blackberry dressing was amazing! The beef dip was decent, and the service was excellent.

My husband and I stopped in for lunch. It was a late lunch so it wasn’t very busy. The food was really good. I had the tuna tacos and was pleasantly surprised. It was a good portion of tuna and perfectly cooked. My husband had the gourmet burger. Oh my goodness it was huge, but it did look delicious and he said it was. Our server, Cameron was fabulous which made the experience even better. Would highly recommend!

The food was amazing! Super chill vibes at this place our server was friendly abd very knowledgeable of the menu. I had rhw turkey pot pie for my main and a maple pecan tourte, Went in hungry came out very full! Definitely worth the trip up from Victoria

Great meal with very attentive staff. Excellent gluten sensitive options. Good value for $ spent. Reasonable beer selection. Dog friendly patio. Will make this a regular stop on our way to/from Nanaimo.

This is a great location, it’s nice to be able to come by boat. We unfortunately arrived during a power issue so it took a bit longer to get our meals but our server Aura, was excellent. She always smiled, checked in with us constantly and let us know what was going on. The calamari was really good and the chicken wings as well. The fish and chips and burgers were excellent and I would recommend the cod it was very good. They have a bit of a challenge with the wine options and they look like they are short staffed but they were all friendly and helpful. You can only make reservations for the inside of the restaurant because the patio is first come first serve.

I had my first bowl of seafood chowder. I had heard it was amazing and it certainly was!!! The scallops were the perfect share plate. Also enjoyed halibut burgers which were so good we didn’t have time for a picture. See you when the weather warms up. The patio looks like the place to be this summer.

I have a friend who lives in Maple Bay and when I come to the Island we eat here once in a while over the last 20 years. The food is consistently good. Especially the burgers, fish and chips, mussell's, and the prawn platter. The staff is always friendly. Maybe because I come with a long time local. But they are great. The Pub is quite old, so I don't expect a modern update. Happy that it survived Covid.

1st time eating here and we weren't disappointed. I had the 2 piece fish & and chips. The fries were hand cut, and the 2 pieces of fish were a good size. Both tasted fresh and cooked perfectly to my liking.

Food was good, chairs uncomfortable and the floor was slanted so I was slightly sideways. Service was good, our server gave good recommendations.

It's typical pub fare - not wonderful but not terrible. I only rated it five stars because with everything being so expensive these days I do my research before going out and was very disappointed to find out that the website pricing had not been updated. Be warned that it's fairly substantially more expensive than the website. It's not out of the ball park for similar fare - but I was disappointed as I thought I had found a place with great prices. Cute place, average food, great service. I'm not mad I went but I probably won't be back either.

Fairly mediocre experience here overall, and don't think I would go back. Atmosphere was nice and the ship style decor / structure was fun and unique. Staff didn't give me the nice inviting feeling. I ordered a halibut burger and they sent chicken bacon instead, given it was late i didnt want to send it back and I like chicken so I ate it no hassle. Server didn't really seem to care about the mix-up and only offered to charge me for a chicken burger and not the halibut. I don't know in my experience for cases like this you offer a free pop or SOMETHING as a sorry and thank you for not being a hassle. Chicken burger was actually quite bad as well, bottom bun was soggy and chicken tasted old/ reheated. I won't be going back

The menu had lots of options for everyone in the group. There was lots of seating with plenty big cosy booths. Music wasn't too loud. Air conditioning worked well. This was exactly what our group was looking for after tubing the Cowichan River. Fish and chips was very good. Fries were really tasty and they gave me a lot. Half portion Caesar salad was generous. I thought they gave me a full by accident.

First time at Mikes. Had the filet mignon and lobster tail. Ordered steak medium rare. Everything was delicious and perfect portions.

Had a great time with prompt and friendly service by a male server. We ordered off the happy hour menu which now starts at 8pm every night. Best prices in town on house wine and $7 pints of beer, can't beat that if you try. We will definitely be back!

Update. Amazing what 2 weeks of training can do. Staff were much more relaxed and non rushed. I truly appreciate the changes and better air conditioning in the restaurant. Food was very good, and although it was not expected, the additional conversations with staff were light hearted and cheerful. I really appreciate the less ice in the drinks, extra napkins and coaters on the tables. Also got informed on their app, which allows you to gain points towards a meal, or even use the accumulation to pay part of your bill. Nice touch. Highly recommended.

Had such a great time at Mr Mikes! The staff were super friendly and made us feel right at home. They’ve got a big outdoor area that’s awesome for larger groups, and the inside is really clean and comfy too. Plus, it’s in a super handy spot—right by Thrifty’s and a beer and wine store. The menu has a ton of variety—steak, pasta, chicken strips, and I’ve gotta say the lobster dip was a favorite at our table. Our food came out fast and everything was tasty. The vibe is really fun and social, which makes it perfect whether you’re grabbing a casual bite, going on a date night, or out with a whole team. Definitely looking forward to coming back again!

This place has done a complete 360 while under new managements watch. I spoke with Tracy the manager and complimented on the new potato bun which was fantastic and a great option for instead of the French loaf. Food was great server was great and the manager Tracy was attentive and interacted well with our table. Job well done everyone.

Just love everything about the Duncan location of Mr. Mike's!! The Staff are always cheerful and willing to be flexible in putting you're desired meal together. I have always found the food to be very tasty and nice and hot when served. Five stars plus highly recommend!!

We were a table of 4 out for a birthday celebration. 2 of the dishes were not what we ordered. Taken back and new dishes sent out after 2 of the diners were almost done. The lasagna dish was more like hamburger helper than lasagna. The spinach cannelloni with marinara as great once it was replaced. The service was good. We were not charged for the lasagna, told we were getting 10% off the tab for the but that didn't appear on the final bill. Atmosphere was nice.

Absolutely choked that after being a loyal customer since their reopening all of a sudden our address is just outside their delivery area, when did I find this out? When I placed an order and didn’t receive a call back until 15 minutes later that they are cancelling my order. Conveniently, I can get delivery from all of the big box pizza places but when I try to support something locally owned and operated, it’s a no go, and people wonder why these businesses are going out of business. At least large corporations have a standard customer service that’s relatively consistent and while they may not be perfect, at least I can get a freaking pizza. But here’s a kicker when I use the map function it says that they are 8.8 km away from my house And they say there maximum distance is 10 km. I get it, it’s just pizza, but we have limited Options in this area and it was nice to have a locally owned option.

We’ve been there as a group of 15+ people, as a family of 4, and dined multiple times as two people. The one constant is that no matter how many or how few of us there are, they go the extra mile to provide excellent service. It’s nice to feel appreciated 🙌

We had the best Greek waitress. She was friendly, helpful, courteous and remembered everything about our orders. We were so happy with her we came back a 2nd time while vacationing at Lake Cowichan.

Service was excellent start to finish, ladies at the front greeting & our server were very kind & welcoming, unforchinitly the food was not, which is why paying customers go to establishments. We ordered the dry rib appetizer & was quite disappointed, they were extremely overcooked and the oil they were cooked in gave them the burnt dirty taste. Main dishes were Chicken Souvlaki Wrap which had very little to the imagination with only a small spoon full of taziki & 12 small piece’s of red onion (no tomato due to allergy) & super soggy dripping wet chicken pieces/slices, for the price one would have expected fresh lettuce & feta fully loaded true Greek style, but this was slapped together with minor ingredients. Second item was Fish & Chips, the fish had more batter then actual fish & again the burnt dirty oil taste to it. Shockily the fries were the better part of the entire meals, possiably cooked in a separate fryer & maintained/cleaned regularly for freshness. We were excited to here visit since the new take over & remodel, gave it a try & sadly won’t return as the value isn’t there. Best of luck to them in there business we hope them well, Resturaunt is a tough industry.

Really was hoping they would improve the food when they closed and did the remodel. Unfortunately, they decided to continue to use frozen food truck deliveries. Sauces and dips are all premade and not even the "good" quality ones Sysco sleps. The waiter was new, but he did an awesome job. He got 20% tip, but only because we know the food decisions are out of his hands. We were really hoping new management would breathe some freshness into the food, but nope. It's still really bad.

Went there with my sister for dinner, our server was Merika 490 and she was #amazing. So friendly and funny food was so tasty and came out at a good time. Highly recommend!

This experience is from a couple of weeks ago. No, I do not want to email guest services so please take this review as an opportunity to adjust and improve as I waited to be clear and honest with this feedback. We had a table for 10 at dinner time. I could tell our server was a nice human, just lacked the skills to handle a large table - lacked attentiveness and awareness. There were moments where talking to her friends was more of a priority. I have read reviews where it is too dark in the restaurant. True. Most of the time I can't tell if they are open from the street. The music was a bit too loud to the point we were having to shout at each other to have a conversation. The food met the baseline standard, Sysco style. Had the Chicken Gyoza and the Mini Yorkies. They were decent. The Pickleback Caesar was the best part of my experience - great presentation, great ratio of ingredients.

This is my favourite restaurant of all time! Food is great every time and service is great. Only downside is that is busy all the time, but for a good reason!

Original Joe's is my husband & my "go to place" anytime we feel like not cooking, or to just kick back and relax with a delicious meal. We especially like that O.J.'s has these special menus, example: Summer Menu, Mother's Day, Father's Day etc. Which have been very enjoyable and affordable menus. The drinks are very well done also. I must say cudos to the chef(s) for making the Appetizers so delicious and revising them occasionally. Our most favourite appie is the Bruschetta...mmmm. The servers have always been very pleasant also. Keep up the good work. :)

Bartender made a great drink for me and the service was outstanding, the bartender Lindsey came over and asked and made sure it was good! Servers are very funny and always pleasant to talk to. I’ve had Lindsey and Chris as servers a few times and they are both great, even remember what I drink! Funny and personable-10/10 customer service. Great place to come have dinner a drink and have some laughs

Our favourite place to go for food and drinks. The food is consistently good and the happy hour menu is so fairly priced! The service is the most consistent place in town, with servers and managers going out of their way to give amazing service to everyone who walks in the door. Keep up the great work, all of your hard work is paying off!

Great atmosphere, decent food choices and great drinks! Tracy is always great at the bar! Always keeps me well hydrated :)

We love going to OJs after work! The service with Jerry and Dez at the bar is always top notch, happy hour snacks and the raspberry burst drinks are always delicious.

2024 dine in for two: $ 70 including tips Positive: Great service, option to pick between vietnamese food or sushi. Interior is spacious, clean with vibrant decor. Easy to find location. Meals are your typical sushi/vietnamese selection found in many restaurant. Food comes out quite fast. Negative: None Food for thought: Street parking available, great place to bring family, or have a date. Kids dont like asian food? Well, they have fried chicken wings. Vegan friendly.

We always try to stop here for sushi when we are in Duncan. Some of the best sushi I’ve ever had and some creative rolls. The Duncan roll is great and tempura is top quality.

Looking for a sushi place, my daughter suggested we try here as she had used it for take-out before. We were greeted and seated promptly by friendly staff. Beverages (water & green tea) arrived quickly with the menus. We waited 15 minutes to place our order, though the restaurant wasn't overly busy. Knowing the food is made fresh, we anticipated a bit of a wait. The wonton soup was incredible – the flavor was amazing. The California and dynamite rolls were also very good. It took a while to get our bill once we were finished. All in all, great food, but be prepared for a leisurely, relaxing meal. Yes, I will return.

The sushi was good. The service was rushed and we had to return as our order was incomplete. We were forewarned by the sign on the door that they were short-staffed--fair enough-- but an acknowlegement of the error or a brief I'm sorry would have gone a long way. Not a deal breaker. I would go back. The food was fresh and tasty and the young staff were doing there best.

Our favourite sushi place in Duncan that also offers excellent Vietnamese dishes. Fantastic service. Delicious rolls and tasty pho. Ample seating with options for groups of all sizes. Very clean washrooms. We’ve been eating here regularly for more than 10 years and it’s always been consistently great. Park in the lot next door or at the train station in the park nearby if street parking is full.

Recommended by a friend, ordered crispy noodle with beef, not sure how the chef designed the dish but long crooked fried noodle is the most difficult thing to put in mouth. Sauce tasted good, beef is bland probably not marinated but at least it’s tender, veggie is crisp. Overall not worth the money paid. Way too overpriced.

The new Busser is amazing, she’s very personable, attentive and a bright beam of light. The food is also incredible.

My husband and I used to avoid going to White Spot for many many years. Service was bad, food was ok but we always had the feeling they were trying to save every single penny giving with everything. We decided to give it a try and we happily report service had improved big time. This actually had become our go to place for breakfast on the weekends. (I should not share this, otherwise people will start going more 😉) but wait is short, we love the waitresses and hostesses(specially Cassandra and Fernanda). Menu is limited but food is good. They give you little portions of condiments but they can gladly bring you more if you ask for them. Good place now overall.

We went to Whitespot for the first time in about 5 years. Atmosphere was very welcoming & comforatable, we were greeted & seated very promptly within arrival. Our server was an absolute gem (can’t recall her name but could definitly pick her out again), very personable, tentative & helpful. She made the interaction worth while & definitly a memoriable moment, Nat would be proud of her 😉 Our food was very well made & presented, amazing tastes but not over powering, great size portions & a for price. The new summer lemonades are delicious too, very refreshing & not overly sweet/sugary tasting. 5 stars to Nick & his team!

The food was amazing. Sourdough club sandwich is to die for! Hostess was an absolute sweetheart and our server was on the ball. We are visiting from Saskatchewan and felt very welcome here.

Swing by on a week day non peak dinner. Place was quite empty. Took awhile before someone came and took our order. There was like 3 other staff around chit chatting. My kids needed their juice refilled and they were waving / saying excuese me to one of the staff at the bar and was promptly ignored. Finally, the original staff who took our order was available and the kids finally got their refills. Food came out ok. But when we finally got the drinks refilled. My pop was so watered down that there was hardly any gas/taste. Very different from the original fizzy pop thst was provided. I guess... any fast food joint might give them a run for money.

Our food is always great at White Spot. We've eaten dozens of meals over the years and we like the friendly helpful staff.

We had a pleasant dinner here, when we visited Duncan over the weekend. The restaurant wasn't busy, and the staff were present to welcome us and get our orders. Menu items are all right, a little pricier than I'd hope but that's just how it is living on the island. The restaurant was dimly lit but it felt relaxing for an evening meal. My shrimp Alfredo was great, and the table had spices and toppings to use. We left with a good meal, and will definitely recommend stopping here if you're visiting the Duncan area.

White spot let me host my 2 year olds birthday party at their restaurant. It was certainly a chaotic group with kids and excitement but I was so pleased with the service I received there. Priyanka was our server and was absolutely amazing serving the whole group of 24 by herself. Shoutout to the kitchen staff too who made our food fast and without error. Great experience

Server has no experience about anything. He didn’t give spoon in cutlery. Table was not properly clean and there was not any Napkins or salt& pepper on the table . He didn’t come again to ask anything. Atmosphere also not good // don’t go over there and don’t waste your money on your special day 🕉️🙏

I've eaten here a few times over the years and the food is always fresh, hot and tasty. This time didn't disappoint. We ordered the chicken pakora which was good and a generous portion, although the chicken was a little dry. The fish tandoori was very juicy and delicious as was the stuffed keema naan. Probably the best stuffed naan I've had on Vancouver Island. The service was friendly and generally prompt although they didn't clear up any of the plates at the end, even though we were the only ones in the restaurant at that time. There are better curry restaurants on the island, but this place certainly won't disappoint. We enjoyed our lunch and will be back. The chai tea was also great!

The FOOD!!!! ITS AMAZING!! beautifully presented and incredible service. If you love Indian food this restaurant is a MUST! If you don't, you will after eating here!

We had a great lunch here. Wednesday lunch special was butter chicken. We got it with rice and two beef samosas and a mango lassi to share. Service was quick and attentive. The restaurant smelled beautifully of the spices. It was nice and quite. The meal was generous and flavourful.

Had delicious dinner with our family. The dosa was really good. We also enjoyed the goat biryani and the tandoori chicken. My son had a chocolate shake and said it was the best he has ever had. They have Kingfisher beer too, which is my favourite. Good was reasonably priced as well!

$50 for Spinach paneer and mango chicken curry no rice. I’ve been ordering here for years and rice always came with it. Super disappointing there was no communication of this online when I ordered or in person when I paid and picked up my order.

I have been here many times now and the food is simply flawless, and also the warm courteous smiles from the staff is faultless, would highly recommend this restaurant.

This is a place that locals go over and over again which bodes well. The owner and the waitstaff are friendly and helpful. The food is wonderful - generous servings and great taste. The atmosphere is jovial and friendly. People who don't even know each other chat between tables. The art all over the walls really adds to the charm of the place. Highly recommend, especially if you want to see the real Duncan.

This place is incredibly cozy, and the service is outstanding. It feels like stepping into a family member’s home—welcoming, comforting, and full of heart. The food is delicious and satisfying, with a wonderfully diverse menu. I felt genuinely cared for while enjoying the atmosphere. If I could, I’d eat here every single day.

Generous with fillings, super tasty, and options you don't see everywhere else! Multiple fresh made pies which change. There's a cute patio section if you walk through. Has such a genuine, old school, small town vibe. The poutine comes with grated cheese instead of cheese curds, but it tasted great and the fries were the best I've had in a long time, fresh and crispy! There isn't much parking but I'd recommend parking and walking anyway, there are plenty of places to see on the way! Help keep downtown alive. We'll definitely be back!

Love this little local diner but this is the second time we have gone in for a late breakfast (9:30), which they say they serve until 11, and gotten hash browns that were obviously made for the 7 am crowd. And the bacon had also been on the grill around that time. The pancake, however, was wonderful, huge and fluffy. The waitresses are great and the service is friendly. We'll be back, but not for breakfast.

Funky little coffee shop & diner. Endless good fresh coffee and ingredients. Old school gravy and home made muffins, jam and specials are always good and have good value. The Wall Art is still super unique.

Very quaint spot with welcoming staff and a lovely whiteboard of specials. The food tasted fresh and homey. I could tell it's where families come to spend time during the weekends or daytime with it's cozy feel

It’s a cute old school restaurant with a nice outdoor deck and lovely service but the food was incredibly underwhelming and quite expensive for the quality you get. The toast was thin and plain tasting. The eggs lacked flavour and the hash tasted more like grease than anything else. For $16 I expected slightly better quality. So while it wasn’t a bad experience it wasn’t somewhere I would go again.

The food was just basic nothing special. Horrible service - very grumpy customer service. Fried chicken was not tasty. I have tasted better fries and fried chicken. Went all the way to Duncan to taste this chicken, very disappointed. Biscuit was terrible, gravy was tasteless, fries were not yummy and chicken - useless. Don’t waste your time. Mary brown tastes waaaaaay better and fresh.

Ordered two 3 piece chicken meals One spicy one plain Separate bills No sauces added Wrong meals given out, switched around I got the spicy and could not eat it at all Didn’t need to be charged .25 for each bag, we received a box, why charge for a bag? Is there a difference in cost of strips vs bone in? We asked for bone in and received strips. He did not offer us our receipt, I forgot to ask for it. Each meal came to about $17. Very dissatisfied with results, couldn’t return, no vehicle.

Came after 8pm so unfortunately wasn't able to dine in but staff were super friendly and great for allowing me to use their washroom while they're prepping my takeout order. Was meaning to try the location on Admirals Rd locally but hadn't got the chance but happy to have been to this location to experience the chain's food for the first time.

We used to go here as a treat. Then about 2 years ago we had the worst meal. Stale, cold , it was terrible. Ok never going back. BUT !!!! We did go back. Today. Omg I'm telling you it was so delicious 😋 and fresh and the staff was awesome 👌 I'm so happy !! Thank you. We will be returning. Highly recommend 👌

Ordered a decent size meal for delivery, only received like half of it, and not the first time items were missed, with other fried chicken options around now its not worth the headache of ordering from Lees

I bought 10 piece chicken at Duncan location and when I opened it at home the 2 chicken legs were soooo tiny.. Very disappointing legs was just like a 2 bite chicken leg.. Such a ripped off Attached is the picture of how small the chicken legs

This place offers something unique these days. Genuine value. It's like they forgot to make their prices higher, portions smaller, and and cut product quality. I've eaten here a handful of times and its been simple tasty food made well. I am a big guy and I love to eat, but I would reccomend sharing one meal combo with your partner, or divide it in half for later.

I ordered the sandwich. I don’t really think it looks anything like it does in the menu, but that’s just my opinion it taste OK. Soggy sweet potato fries with no dip that’s supposed to come with a Sriracha dip I believe after paying $28 you think I’d be a bit better $30 for a one slice of roast beef or it’s supposed to be steak on here or something

Let me first say, that going to BP and reviewing it and NOT getting their pizza is perhaps nonsensical, but let me explain. I'm on carnivore diet and only eat meat. So the entire menu is out EXCEPT for salt and pepper dry rub oven baked(not fried) wings. So this is my take. The wings were cooked fine, but at $28 plus tax plus tip for 16 wings is questionable in my mind. What solidified my general dissatisfaction was the fact that the size of the wings were wildly inconsistent. About 50% of the wings seemed really small in size. That's my biggest complaint. But I was only here for the UFC so once I factored that in I could justify the wings... but if not coming here to watch a nearly $100 pay per view for free, I'm not sure there is above average value here. I'll bet their pizza I fine though...but I'll never know. At any rate. Nothing wrong with the greeters or servers they run around and keep the place moving like most places so I tired her $10 for my $30 meal. At any rate.... glad they show UFC... I will come again for UFC but I'll eat first before i come, tip my waitress good still, but drink water.

Just had a terrible experience. We sat down with only a few tables occupied. the service needs to improve; we were not given water, cutlery, napkins and had to ask for them. The food came and the staff member had their thumb in the food. The side plates were put on the table and 2 of them were dirty. Next came the food and all of us got food except one and he had to wait another 5 minutes. There were several hairs on my plate under the pizza so it was returned. On the table behind us, the dirty dishes had been left and none of the staff bothered to clean them away the whole time we were there. Our view out the window were junkies getting high after their sullplier dropped their drugs off. This used to be a great place fir a family supper, but it's gone down hill. So sad.

Edit: and like clockwork, they come out with the online survey which is WORK for me, the customer to do. How about you just be a proper restaurant? Pathetic. Only went because nothing else was open, so our expectations were already low, but wow they managed to go even lower. Soggy Caesar Salad that they charged $16 for, and an Undercooked pizza for $37, and the server refused to give a discount on that salad, but I stood my ground and they relented even after threatening to call the police. Didn't even come refill my water during this whole debacle. That salad should've been taken off our bill altogether, but hey we got a 10 percent discount for this nonsense. I don't believe any of these positive reviews on here for a second. It's Boston pizza! Franchise owners can easily pay companies to make fake reviews.

The female servers were both good but the man that came to settle was terrible, no hello, didn't ask how the food was, just gave me the terminal and turned around. Minimum tip is 15%, which would be fine IF he didn't suck at his job and the desert was UNreasonable relative to the advertised picture. This guy did a great job at making sure I never return. He literally took the terminal without saying a word and walked away. No thank you for the Tip, thank you for coming, nothing. If I was the owner, he'd be done tonight. And yes I know the industry, I worked it years ago and no it wasn't busy at all, nearly dead at 9:45pm. Note the lack of ice cream vs the menu picture, that's simple dishonest and being cheap.

What a joke. I have never had a more disgusting burger than the one I ordered from here. Maple bacon cheese burger is not supposed to leave a curry taste in my mouth after. They put the huge gravy container in with the handful of fries lol. That was a 25$ mistake.

Worst service i have ever experienced, forgot almost half of my husband and I order while having a comical response to ignoring his allergies which are deathly. On top un willing to accommodate or refund not worth it

I encountered a rude and snarky female server who literally commanded me to sit before placing the menu on the table and was giving me nasty looks. That was rude and very awkward. There was a better female server, but none of them were welcoming or smiling. At the end, I told her that I would like to pay, but she ignored me and started cleaning the table next to me before leaving. My rolls were not tasty and fell apart right away. The home-style fried rice was okay, but considering the amount of ‘vegetables’ and the price, it should have cost maybe about $9 to make instead of the $18 I paid. The only good thing was that it was a big and filling portion. The tables were sticky, the plates were old and scratched, and the music was loud. I don’t even know why I returned there; I guess this will be my last visit. I don’t recommend this place to anyone.

The sushi house in Duncan is a pretty good place to go. My friends actually go there on a regular basis for the teriyaki chicken bowls. They are a good size and a decent amount of protein. I eat the sushi, but next time I’m in I will take/add a picture of the chicken bowls.

Nice local spot in Duncan for sushi. The fish is fresh, the rolls are well prepared, and portions are generous for the price. Staff are friendly and service is quick which makes dining here easy and enjoyable. The atmosphere is simple but comfortable, perfect for a casual sushi meal.

I am torn with this rating. Ordered some rolls, Gyoza, and miso soup. Food was ready quick for takeout. All the food was delicious, but there were some issues. We were staying in a hotel. When I got back to the room I noticed no chopsticks, no soya sauce, and no spoon or napkins. I guess I’ve taken for granted that these things would be in the bag as they have been from every other sushi place I’ve ordered from ever. Not this time! Did they forget? Do they just not include this stuff? Made for a messy dinner with chopsticks or napkins. Missed the soya, and drank the soup like an animal!! The gyoza also seemed overcooked which was unfortunate. But overall the food was quite good. Would have been a 5 star rating had they remembered the other stuff!

Love this place since Day 1 i came here in Duncan. Great food and always fresh.

I has salmon Sashimi and beef Pho. The Pho was very disappointing. The broth tasted like simple chicken broth. There were no definable traditional pho aromatics to the broth. Not a lot of meat either. Plus... they serve cilantro instead of Thai basil. Cilantro offers far too light of flavor to be detectable here even with the bland broth. They should get Thai basil If you want to know the best place for pho bar none on the island go to Langford to the "original pho eatery". Try sushi house pho first of course. Then go to langford. I've literally driven the hour just for their soup. Just for reference I eat pho usually 3 or 4 times a month, every month, for the last 10 years. I've visited a lot of places. Anyone claiming this pho broth is good you can ignore them. Go to langford, try their pho... before you consider dismissing my review. The salmon Sashimi slices were are bit small. The establishment is clean but is uninspired in opinion. The servers here look young but they also look like they're hustling so that's a plus. Also forgot my $250 earbuds there and the staff was diligent in keeping them safe for me to return to collect them. They probably make ok or better sushi but I'd recommend they drop the pho from the menu or bring its price down to $11.95... one or the other would be the move.

Came here with my family, ordered the love boat, sockeye salmon nigiri and mango special roll. First off the sushi was great, presentation was nice, the fish was tasty and nicely cut. The customer service however... was lacking. It was a busy Friday evening, only 2 chefs pumping out orders as fast as possible, kudos to them. The servers were a bit lost and we were basically seated in a corner and forgotten about... While we waited about an hour we saw pickup order after pickup order go out the door. Aside from taking our order, no one came by, no water refill, no one came with our bill, no one looked our way. Kinda felt like we were a nuisance being there. This place is in a good spot and has great potential. 4-5 stars are within reach!

I absolutely love her food. Very different Pad Thai than I've had anywhere else and I have a hard time ordering it anywhere but Sai's. I eat there often! I have had over half the menu. The yellow curry noodle and Spicy Basil noodle are awesome. The soups are beautiful. Massuman Curry is killer. It's all good.

Yellow curry was a sweet, gummy ball of noodles with run-of-the-mill vegetables (cauliflower, broccoli, carrots, onions). They warn there's a long wait, which I could accept if the food was delicious. They're in a small town, so big city exotic meals may be a lot to ask. Vegetarian spring rolls had beans, which was fine but an odd pairing with the sweet sauce. Fried tofu was good. The service was friendly, decor was freshly updated, clean restaurant.

Excellent Thai food. So delicious. I got the cashew salad roll and the yellow curry with mixed vegetables (medium spicy-ness) and it was SO good. It comes with rice or rice noodles, I got the rice and mixed it in with the curry right away. So perfect. I would absolutely come back again and might even get the same thing. Would definitely recommend. Thanks for the delicious meal.

Absolutely amazing food. A heads up, their Med. heat is about a hot-1. Home made authentic and great flavours. Number 20 on the menu is amazing, and mild enough for kids, everything I tried was excellent. The chief is an older lady who uses her mothers recipes. Do not expect fast service, as each dish is made to order, and she brings it out herself to you. Dish size is a tiny bit small for my taste but pricing is such that I order 3 dishes for two people and we share, leaving very full and very very satisfied. You must try this place.

The flavours are fine but the portions are disgraceful. He paid $18 for an order of Cashew Chicken and rice for take away. When he came home we put both orders on his plate and I cooked dinner for myself. The rice portion was a circle with a diameter of 2” x 1” high. The Cashew Chicken wasn’t even half of a small takeout bowl. Never again EDIT. We appreciate the offer of the refund but we are not looking for our $$ back. When hubby brings home take away and I have to cook a last minute dinner...that should not happen.

I'm from Thailand and I can ensure you that this is the true Thai taste. Really recommend this place :)

I popped in for a quick lunch and order Phad Thai. I think that there was too liberal a splash of fish sauce that gave it an unfortunately "off" taste. I ate the chicken and the broccoli, but left the noodles. I offered to pay, but the server and owner were aware of my reaction and kindly declined payment. Others seemed to be enjoying their fare, so it may be an exception.

Taylor made our experience awesome! Great server. Gluten free options can be done, however, they don't have a dedicated fryer. I tried one wing, lemon pepper, really good. Had the fish and yam chips, fish was grilled not battered. My husband and our daughter had the battered fish and chips and could not keep quiet about how tasty they were. Our son in law had wings and the stuffed potato poutine. He said it was good. Would highly recommend.

Had awesome time there for my 2 weeks. The staff was amazing. Food was awesome. Just be aware they give huge portions.

If you’re planning to visit Duncan or if you live there, this is a must-try restaurant. The atmosphere, food, and service are all excellent. I highly recommend trying the ribs! Thanks Raquel for your amazing service !

We had our staff party here and did the turkey buffet in one of their private rooms down a floor. It was genuinely an incredible meal, all my coworkers agreed how awesome it was. We had 1 gentleman looking after every need and had it done before we even had to ask. He even accommodated 2 nut allergies for desserts that we completely forgot to let them know about and offered us alternative dessert just for nut free people. We loved that they gave us the whole big room. Nice atmosphere, felt a bit more wedding vibes than a staff party vibe as the lights are dim. Would not remotely fault them for that as we are boring and don't need mood lighting. A fun disco ball in the corner. I have absolutely nothing bad to say. I can see it being a wonderful place to host a small wedding dinner.

We bring our team here for supper quite often, and have always been happy when we leave. Service is awesome and the food is always fresh. Try the fish and chips - the fish is coated in seasoned panko and pan-fried instead of battered and deep fried, and is very good. Taco Tuesday is always a hit, as is the smash burger.

Calamari was excellent ! Best clam chowder ! Very good spring rolls!

A TRUE HIDDEN GEM IN DUNCAN!!! While traveling through the island on our babymoon, we decided to stop by this place as it came highly recommended by a local friend. We went for lunch on a Wednesday around 1pm, and I would say it was quite lively for the time of day and week we had visited. You have to enter through Best Western, but do not have to be a guest at the inn to dine at the restaurant. First of all, I really loved the ambience of the lounge - although they had dimmed lighting, the natural lighting coming in from the windows provided perfect balance for a lunchtime visit. The beautiful bar area, string lights and cute touches to the walls gave off a really fun, yet cozy vibe to the interior as well. The staff were super friendly and knowledgeable when it came to the menu. Our server gave us some recommendations and we decided to order the Cauliflower Bites, Seafood Chowder, Chicken & Broccoli Bowl, and the Beef Dip Burger. The appies arrived first, and I cannot rave enough about how good these were! The cauliflower bites were lightly battered and had a really nice crunch without being at all too greasy or heavy. I was quite impressed with the seafood chowder as well, as it was not super salty or heavy as I have had in other restaurants in the past. The seafood tasted very fresh, and I enjoyed the different combinations of flavors I could taste with every spoonful, as the soup consisted of various types of veggies and seafood. For the main dishes, the Chicken & Broccoli Rice Bowl had a great peanut sauce with some very fresh and tender chicken breast. I wouldn't say the sauce is an authentic Thai recipe, but it was tasty regardless! I had a bite of my hubby's burger, and was really impressed at the quality of the patty - super juicy, yet not too fatty. The brioche bun paired perfectly with the texture of the other ingredients, and the au jus (served on the side in a gravy boat) was nice and flavorful and really brought the whole burger together. The server checked in on us every now and then to make sure everything was going okay, and I just had praises everytime she dropped by. Overall, I was very impressed with my experience at CVI and would definitely recommend this place to anyone who may be in the area or passing through Duncan.

Just tried their sushi takeout and it was awesome! The rolls were fresh, nicely packed, and still tasted great after bringing them home. No mess, no soggy rice—everything held up perfectly. It’s honestly such a nice treat after a busy day. Definitely my new go-to spot for sushi takeout!

Some of the worst sushi we have ever had. Small rolls, not fresh at all and expensive for what you get. Definitely not an authentic experience. Feels more like someone just decided to open a sushi restaurant after home cooking… Would not recommend at all.

I stopped by this restaurant today and ordered a sashimi party tray. It was absolutely delicious — fresh, made to order, and surprisingly quick to arrive. The flavors were amazing. I’ll definitely come back again. Highly recommend this sushi place!

Only have takeout available (as of August 2021). The food was fresh and flavourful. Sushi are on the smaller side while the donburi is on the larger size (tequila can for reference). They made our food quickly.

Very strange experience. They are take out only but appear to have a full dining room are that sounds like it has people living in it. My daughter said her cucumber rolls were good and they were well priced. My braised pork and rice bowl was tasty but lacked veggies there was one Bok Choy leaf on top . My friend stated her sushi tasted off possibly from the storage containers. Very underwhelming experience.

One more sushi, haven’t been here in a while. Three of us went for lunch and enjoyed ourselves. The chicken teriyaki bento box looked great and tasted great I’m told and was backed up by an empty plate. The mini tempura bowl was anything but mini, and was thoroughly enjoyed, and seem to be popular amongst the other diners. Mine was a tuna/salmon plate with ebi. Nice Fresh fish, super ginger, and warm tea all in a wonderfully calming tropical atmosphere.

Ordered on door dash , salmon was so dry and funky smelled and tasted like cat food. Do not order from here if you want decent sushi .

, I am very disappointed , I popped in tonight for takeout. Ordered vegetarian pad, Thai vegetable, spring rolls, and chicken satay. I was the only one in the restaurant at the time, and I heard them start preparing the food right away, I could actually hear the sizzling of something but perhaps they weren’t preparing my food? The food came up very fast I drove 10 minutes home and everything was stone cold , not even a little warm it was seriously cold. The pad Thai is gluey. The vegetables are over cooked. The broccoli is almost yellow and the noodles were all stuck together in big clumps like it had been sitting there for a while. The spring rolls were cold and greasy The chicken satay was good but cold I’m not sure what the additional sauce was that came with the spring rolls… But it had that really tangy powdered ginger flavor… and the rest of the ingredients seem to be cornstarch and water, see picture. I am super disappointed not only because this was a waste of $50+ … but because I think this is the only Thai place in Duncan

I got the Pad Thai, medium spicy. Green onions instead of Chinese chives. No pickled radish, no dried shrimp. Not sure but it didn't taste like palm sugar either. Weak tamarind flavour, needed more sour. Lime wedge was obviously cut a day or two ago kinda dried out. The spice was dried red peppers. No fresh birdseye chili (which I think is a better option, even if not strictly traditional). The portion size was very generous. Noodles had good texture, decent wok hei. Bean sprouts had a solid crunch. Overall, ok, but bland. Service was friendly and polite. For atmosphere, this could be a hole in the wall kinda place if the person cooking cared more about the food.

Ordered delivery for 2 people. Came to $60.00 and there was enough food to feed a small child. The hot sour soup, with 1 piece of squid had no noodle or rice for $20.00. The satay chicken, $19. 00, was 4 tiny thin pieces of chicken and less than average taste. I never write reviews, but this was so pathetic, I had no choice.

Usually good food, especially when they use the thick coconut milk for their curry, which is seasonal as I was told. Today, we ordered take out red curry lunch amongst other dishes. My issue was that they combined the curry with the rice in one container, and unfortunately, all the curry was absorbed into the rice and I had no curry left for the meal. I called and spoke to the chef, and she said that is how they do it. I asked her if she likes to eat curry with no sauce, and have rice with all the sauce, and she said yes! lol. Doesn’t make any sense to me. Two orders in a row with issues. No making it right or offering to remake so I could enjoy the meal. I hope something will be adjusted with this review for the future. Make sure you ask for them to be separate as this is their best practice. Thank you.

One of the best Thai spots in the area. Much more than just Phad Thai. Nice lunch combo options. Fresh ingredients. Great service. Good parking options. Ample room for families and kids.

While this is cooling i have to say the first couple bits were awesome! Prawns, chicken, vegetables, everything perfectly executed in my foodie opinion. The vegetable spring rolls were awesome too. Especially with my sweet chili thai sauce. Always nice when your first experience is positive.

Food was flavourful and delicious. Both service and food were super fast! Highly recommend the noodle.delight is you enjoy super tasty peanut sauce

Newly located in Cowichan Bay. I ordered a combo dinner plate with a pot of Chinese tea. Food arrived quickly and very hot. My dinner was what I like to call "cheap & cheerful Canadian Chinese". The food tasted good and the portion was large; I walked in hungry and left feeling quite full. Service was quick and attentive. The only negative: I thought it was a bit pricey for what it was. My large heaping plate, along with tea, tax and modest tip, cost me $28. I guess most sit-down restaurants are charging similar prices for a complete meal. Would I go back again? Sure - I wouldn't make a special trip, but if I happened to be in the neighborhood with friends I would try it again.

Kim Wah recently, located to the beautiful and scenic Cowichan Bay from Duncan. Service was prompt. Thank you, Diane, for excellent table service. The food is reasonably priced with generous portion size. The restaurant is clean and spacious. Open from 11:30 to 8pm. Food was tasty and hit the spot. Dine in or take out, you decide. We arrived midday in between lunch in dinner. Many reservations have been made for this evening dining.

Definitely recommend dining in for excellent, fresh, quality local Chinese food. The sweet and sour pork was crispy and fresh. Everything was amazing and portions enough to share. The green tea was authentic and the service impeccable. Thankful to have good quality Chinese food in our local area.

First and last unfortunately. We are frequent purchasers of Wor Wonton soup, always serves two no matter the restaurant, often take out it is ALWAYS two bowls. I arrive to collect this and was shocked at getting a small bowl for 21.95!!! We just ordered the same soup from a place on James street in Duncan and the empty two bowls are proof, which only cost $20.95 for the two. Anyway, unless you are ok with that price for broth , two pieces of broccoli, two slices of carrot and some wonton then order it but I certainly can’t justify it . Ouch

Stopped here tonight for dinner, it was pretty tasty! Good value for the combo that I got, had some leftovers to take home. Only thing I would suggest or liked better is if the chicken chow mein had a bit more flavor, it was a bit bland even after adding some chili sauce. But definitely a decent local option for Chinese food.

Very basic western style Chinese food and tastes good. Dianne gave us very good service along with a smile. Much better location in Cowichan Bay than York Street in Duncan with all the street people that used the hang around (the reason why we never went back there) and having there own free parking is a real bonus in Cowichan Bay. Have been there 3 times now and very satisfied. It may be getting a bit pricey now but what isn't. Best of luck to the new business.

I thought I would try this new place that had replaced the favourite Rock Cod. It is a nice, clean place with excellent service - but the food was some of the worst Chinese food I have had. Spicy chicken with vegetables - - the vegetables were 90% onion and celery with a few pieces of zucchini and three thin slices of carrots. It was smothered in a much too salty, not very spicy sauce. I was quite disappointed and I will not be back with all the other great restaurants in Cowichan Bay.

I bought Steak and tripe Pho for pick up, then when i checked the steak some are cooked but there’s a one piece of steak that is not totally cook , Im kinda dissapointed on that part. The soup was good.

The place wasn’t too busy when I visited. I ordered the basic pho and a roll. The broth was a bit light but still nice. The staff were very friendly.

I enjoyed my lunch here. I had salad rolls and Viet ice coffee, then the prawn and pork rice plate. The food was good. They did get hit with 2 bus tour groups though so to be fair im sure the kitchen was a bit banannas. Im going to try it again. Very sweet people working there. Super friendly! Edit: Came back again this year and still wow. Same great service and the flavours and presentation never disappoint. If you are in the area and have a craving come here!!

A great little Pho 🍜 spot we found in old downtown Duncan. The servers were very polite and attentive and wanted to please. They listened well and got our order perfectly right as it was complicated with changes to all 3 meals. Food was also good quality. Although broth seemed a little watery but meat quality was excellent and everything else was fresh. Hot tea 🍵 was too strong so we stuck to water. One thing they should attend to is all the weeds around the building. Makes the restaurant seem sus but overall pretty good.

Great beef noodle soup :) We enjoy them. Sorry it's soo good k finished it first. My beefs were huge and tasty.

Unfortunately, this place has the worst and rudest service I’ve experienced, even though it’s in a great location. The waitress is consistently unfriendly every time we visit. I’ve tried to overlook it in the past, but our last few experiences were unacceptable — especially the most recent one, which made us decide never to return. They also reuse limes and bean sprouts. One time, I was served a lime that had already been used. When I brought it up, the waitress admitted they reuse the plate if the previous table didn’t touch everything. In my case, the table before us had used the lime but not the sprouts, so they just handed me the same plate. That’s unsanitary and gross. To make things worse, when they made a mistake with my takeout order, they refused to take responsibility. Instead of apologizing, they kept saying, “We never make mistakes.” I couldn’t return right away because I have a baby and toddlers, so I took a photo of the wrong dish and ate what I was given. A few days later, I brought the photo back, and the chef just laughed and said, “The photo is unclear — I don’t think we made a mistake.” No apology, just rudeness. The waitress was just as unfriendly as always. That experience made it clear to me: I will never eat food prepared or served by people who treat customers this way. Honestly, it’s totally worth driving a bit further to Green Leaf Bistro or Saigon Subs — both places have much better service and treat their customers with respect.

I ordered vegetarian pho for the first time and it was delicious. Would go again here.

They don't activate gift cards you buy from them so don't ever buy a gift card here My aunt bought 2 gift cards for me and when I went to pay at my local Smittys in Winnipeg, the card was refused and showed inactive. This is technically theft - they took money and falsely offered a service (gift card) they did not provide (gift card not activated).

Update: second time and was not impressed​... No longer a team effort and the service was slow; waited over 30 minutes to see scrambled eggs! That's fried, broken eggs people!!! Back off the make the effort to stop list. We had the breakfast buffet; it's a small buffet but selection met every want and the food was really well prepared! I was pleasantly surprised because as a chain restaurant I was not expecting this at all. I'd give the buffet four stars and our wait "team" five stars - it was an effortless group dynamic from seating through service... Very, VERY impressed, Smitty's Duncan - thank you for breakfast!!!

We waited just over an hour for our food. It was ok at best; our local Smitties is better. What my wife got was not what she ordered but she ate it anyway as we just wanted to leave by then. It needs an update if that sort of thing is important to you. The staff were nice enough although there was a misunderstanding about the Interac being down. We had to go next door to get cash and it cost us $6 in fees.

No one gave us menus, took 45 minutes to get food that was still wrong when it came out, just a terrible experience that really dampened our Fathers Day celebration. We ended up leaving before our son even got his food. Too bad, they used to be decent.

Great, friendly staff. They always make sure your meal is to your liking. Love the raised booth tables, the fish, two tvs on mute, nice music that never gets too loud and best of all, the food is delicious!

Horrible. Not even worth one star. We ordered the eggs benedict, which was alright however the hash browns it came with were barely cooked and they charged us $15 for a meal we couldn't eat after and after we requested a refund, the EXTREMELY rude waitress went back to the kitchen and loudly and snottily announced what we wanted. we were given a $2.10 seniors discount when the price of the hash browns alone, that were inedible, were $4.99. Horrible service, Horrible chefs, horrible establishment. Don't ever waste your time or money here.

My husband, myself and our two children went to Smitty's for dinner, the service was terrible, there were only 3 other tables with people at them and the waitress said they were swamped. She brought out our food one persons at a time, my husband's was first followed by my stepsons a few minutes later, then my daughters and almost 10 minutes later mine came out. She only checked on us once asking how the food was, never offered us more drinks. The table across from us had a few adults and a child at it, when they got their bill the waitress said the child's meal was free because it was Monday, when they told her it was Sunday, she said oh well her mistake the child's meal was still free. Now we were right across from them with a child around the same age and we payed for our child's meal. We will not return to Smitty's in Duncan, the service is terrible and the food was not great either. We were there for over an hour, most of that was waiting for our food.

We had Pho and Lemongrass chicken with Vermicelli. They were fresh with great flavour profile. Service was quick and friendly. A great spot to have quick and filling bite when travelling upisland or returning back from your upisland trip.

We decided to try Green Leaf Bistro on our way back home from Duncan and we were not disappointed. The food was not only excellent and good value for your money, but the portions were also so large that we had a lot of leftovers for dinner. The three of us shared the beef salad, which was wonderful with the generous sprinkling of fresh Thai basil, a rice plate with grilled lemongrass chicken, a nice, crunchy pickle and side salad and the deep-fried spring rolls, with delicious dipping sauces to accompany each dish. We loved the relaxed, warm atmosphere and the great service. Would high recommend making a stop here. We'll definitely be back again!

Best Pho on the island hands down. Rich bone broth, oversized helpings, fresh, beautiful chilli oil. I've tried all Vietnamese in Duncan. This is the spot!! Super humble staff, Respect!

Absolutely LOVED our meal and experience at Green Leaf! We are new to the area, and will be back! The food is so fresh, and the portions are HUGE! My husband and I didn't know this when we ordered, ordered a vegetable soup each with tofu and 1 order of the lemongrass chicken and 1 of the lemongrass beef, and we took home enough leftovers for 3-4 more meals! The staff are so friendly and efficient. As soon as we arrived a delicious tea landed on the table and we barely had to wait to order and the food arrived shortly after. Vegetables were cooked to perfection and the meats were so tender, which sometimes I find can be chewy at Asian style restaurants. Green Leaf is a definite new staple for our family, highly recommend!!!

Green leaf bistro is the best in Vietnam .the Atmosphere % 😘 they services was good. The beef noodles soup.was the best experience I ever hard here it was so delicious and the test was nice 😋

First thing when my husband and I walked in the door, a man sitting at a table smiles and says "this is the best pho out of fifteen different restaurants I've tried on the island." Tea was served right away. The service was excellent and the hot and sour soup was delicious. Overall a wonderful experience. We will be back!

I come almost twice a month now, my go to place for a great and consistent quality with the bahn mi, pho, iced coffee, with genuine interactions and under a soft acoustic guitar ambiance.

The best burger place in Duncan, and one of the best on the island. Very unique and interesting menu, the desserts are also amazing. I love the passionfruit cheesecake, delicious! I am a regular here and I am so happy they exist. Also, top notch no nonsense service and it is always amazing how fast my order is prepared.

Today we decided to try this new burgers place. It reminds me of the cafeterias I used to go back on Europe coasts. We got the Big Kahuna and the Big island burgers. One with a side of coleslaw. Both burgers were yummy (even when for my personal taste it was missing spices. But Im mexican so regular food ALWAYS need extra sauces. Unfortunately they didn’t have anything else but the condiments that already came with the burger. Si if you are like me, you might want to consider take out. The side was good. We also got drinks. Hawaiian Blended Ice tea and the lemonade (well that was what I ordered but seems the lady was having a hard time with my accent and might had understood wrong and got me the fruit punch. However I really liked it so I didn’t mind the switch, if that was the case). Price wise… well these are “artisan burgers” so yes they are on the pricey side of things. But quality is really good. Recommend it.

Perfect burgers!!!! We ordered big island, big kahuna, Oahu 20, the burger came with chunky ground beef, and pork, chicken, but it wasn’t overly greasy, which is prefect!!! Definitely visit again if I come back to Vic.

One of the best burgers I've ever had. Get the humuhumu burger with delicious chunks of mahi mahi and a slice of grilled pineapple. Was walking by on our way here and someone outside was raving about it! She drives down from Nanaimo, I wish Vancouver was closer!!!

Got the Kahuna Burger, bacon, cheese and all the fixin's. Best burger I've had in a long while. The patty had a wonderful flavour, not sure what I was tasting but it was good. Bun was large and in charge but not overpowering, enough to keep a juicy burger under control until it was gone. My friend had the Portobello vegetarian option and polished it off with gusto. Got a kick out of the Eating Instructions" we were given before our burgers were served. Need to follow the protocols to avoid wearing some of it home, where you will fast become your dog's favourite human. The green mango slaw was a bit disappointing, I found it a little dry and lacking in flavour. Next time I will try the regular slaw. I did appreciate the use of wooden (bamboo?) cutlery that can be recycled. My only "beef" is the price. At around $20 this was by far the most expensive burger I have ever ordered. Because of that, Kahuna Burger will not become my regular lunch destination in Duncan, I will maybe keep this place in my back pocket for special occasions.

Just Dined in at the Amazing Kahuna Burger!! WOW my taste buds have been rejuvenated :) This is my family's new Burger place. Such an accomodating, thoughtful & friendly experience not to mention delicious. Definitely not you're average burger that's forsure, so much flavour and they're huge! Loved the island elements and the Macaroni Salad is a MUST! ❤️ 🍔 A+++ We had the Silent Rooster & the Kauai!

This was the first time visiting, I wanted something unique, and after scanning the menu and talking to the staff, I decided on the Oahu burger. It did not disappoint. I was skeptical of the ramen noodle buns, but they turned out delicious. It's a heavy burger though. The teriyaki beef patty is juicy and cooked perfect, the pineapple and ginger work well together making this a sweet and savory paradise in your mouth. Using the wrapper for containment is a must for these burgers, otherwise it will be a sloppy slip n slide. Highly recommend. I also got both the slaw and macaroni salad. The mac salad was pretty traditional, but had a unique sweetness that really shined. The papaya cole slaw was great, but very tangy, take small bites or that vinegar will punch you in the brain. For dessert, I tried the passion fruit cheesecake, a rich traditional cheesecake with a graham crust and fruit topping, very good. The service was great, friendly and helpful, the restaurant was clean. Pretty limited seating indoors, so keep that in mind if you have a crowd, might be better on a sunny day to sit outside of available. Next time I'm in town I'm definitely coming back.

What a surprise! We where in Duncan and was looking for a good place to get quick Chinese food. The place is not the prettiest and not much place to eat inside but the food is amazing, fast service (buffet style) and tasted amazing! We took to go. The staff was nice and worked nicely together. Don't judge the business by the look of the place.. this is place is really good!

Good for on the go Chinese At least I think its Chinese, Make sure they dont try to serve u the bottom dregs when filling your order Getting expensive for level 3 Chinese takeout

It was my first time eating here and will be my last. I had the pork fried rice, honey garlic pork and beef and broccoli. The pork was hard and chewy as shoe leather same with the beef. I also had a cup of the wonton soup and the broth was very watered down and the wontons overcooked. Do not recommend.

The food is cold, and dry. The service is poor. Not friendly, they give bare minimum which made us not want to dine in. We live 2-3 minutes away and got home and the food is cold. Save your time, save your money and find elsewhere for some food..

For cheap and also fast Chinese food this place is great. The trade off is the quality is lower. Speed: 5/5 Very good. In and out in 5 mins. Quality: 2.5/5 Not bad but not great. The pork was quite dry. The sauces are a bit weak as well. If Subway made Chinese food this is what it would be like. Service: 4/5 No complaints. Value: 4/5 Great portion sizes, under $20 for 2 people.

Too much mock chicken loaf. No vegetables. Very cheap quality and quite expensive unlike other people are saying. The chicken curry was 95 % potatoes for some reason. Like the taco bell of chinese food.

When I have gone for a quick meal here, the service has always been prompt and friendly... The food isn't fantastic, but for fast food they are pretty reasonable. Price is always good.. And yes, when people come and go, staff sanitizes everything. Behind the glass the staff is clearing cleaning when not taking orders Very Good.....

Not fancy, reasonably priced- fast, fresh and delicious. For eat in, take out or delivery, a fantastic spot for authentic Vietnamese food. I say that just having returned from a business trip to Vietnam and while there I was thinking that the food at Saigon Subs, rivalled all of the places that my local colleagues took me for meals. Try the Pork Banh Mi, the Beef Pho or any of the Rice Plates and you won’t regret taking the time to check out this place. Also, in a hurry and want to take away- I tried one of the frozen Pho Kits, I got the Beef Pho Kit and it was super easy to prepare and really, really good. Family owned, super nice, comfortable place for lunch or dinner.

Calling this a Large Halifax Donair is a stretch. Very small for the price, no flavor, dried out, not on pita bread. Kind of embarrassed for them that they'd serve this.

Excellent flavor, 100% original Vietnam food. My 2nd best oriental restaurant. My instructions to order special order was followed perfectly. If you are visiting Dunkan you need to eat here at least one time.

Best pho on the island !!! Super wonderful experience. The costumer service is grate and the food is even better. I have tried Saigon subs several times, and every time they are on point. Super flavourful and perfectly cooked. The pho has a rich broth and come with lots of meat. The vermicelli bowl is the same, lots of shrimp and very well seasoned. I also tried the pre-made frozen pho. This was super easy to make and proved lots of flavour, even after being frozen. The value is great as the pho makes a large portion for the price. The cooking directions were easy to follow and the pho came out perfect. Overall I loved my experience with Saigon subs, and would definitely recommend, 10/10. The photos below are of the beef pho kit. So delicious.

Worst donair I have ever had. 2 donairs and fried wonton 50$. No lettuce, onion or tomatoes... meat was microwave garbage. Overpriced and garbage. Don't offer halifax donairs to get us east coast boys in if you're serving garbage.

By far the best bánh mì on the island. Just perfect! I live in Victoria and make a point to stop here everytime I go up island. Thank you for the great food!

stopped by for a quick lunch randomly found on google maps while on a road trip the pork banh mi is one of the best i've had - the bread was the highlight; soft and crunchy and the summer rolls was super fresh too would highly recommend

Been coming here for years, the food is great and generous portions. The staff are so friendly and it has an old time feel that is welcoming and unpretentious. A great place to enjoy a meal, places like this are hard to find!

Four of us & the dog enjoyed a delightful tasty lunch on the outside seating on a warm day in the shade @ the Corner House Cafe during Duncan Days in July 2025. The server was super attentive & even brought water & treats for the dog. We'll be back next time were in downtown Duncan.

Don't recommend Chinese food. No rice, replacement for almond breaded chicken was 1 spring roll, replaced fried rice with 4 won ton. Definitely not worth what we paid!

Good food, very friendly and attentive staff, very nice vibe. Don't get me wrong, this is not a gourmet restaurant, it is good diner food served fresh. We had breakfast, eggs done as we ordered them, excellent, juicy sausages, nice thick, tasty bacon. The hash browns looked to be baked potatoes that had been grated and fried, which is what I like. A little bland perhaps, but not greasy, next time I'll ask for onions. The sourdough toast was good, jam on the side. Unlimited coffee. All for $11.00 and change, can't beat that. Lots of regulars, all greeted by name. While we were there I noticed a sign talking about a Chinese food special. Sounded good, I will have to give it a try, they offer takeout.

A great little down home diner. The food here is delicious and the servers are friendly and excellent. Highly recommend.

I had a breakfast wrap with hash potatoes and bottomless coffee for about $18 plus tax and tip. Wrap and potatoes tasted good, large portions I couldn't finish. Coffee was very good. Service was good too. UPDATE: I have visited once a week or so for the last nine months. Every meal has been tasty, and the staff are top notch, and greet me by name. Highly recommended.

Amazing food, very good and attentive waiters, cosy place in Duncan. You should try their special food, amazing Chinese food special - sweet and sour pork, chicken chow mein, egg foo yung

The sushi and sashimi portions were the smallest I've seen on the Island, yet the prices were comparable to those in most good sushi restaurants. The miso soup bowl was only half full… The fish was fresh though.

I know I should not compare meaty Chinese dumplings to a first time experience with Korean gyoza as these might be perfect exemplars of those, but my first reaction was “where’s the beef?” The rest of our purchases were fine examples of typical Japanese food as made in North America.

If I could give them zero stars, I would. I ordered takeout and tried to call it in-they didn’t answer so I was forced to order and pay online. The online order time said it would be ready at 6:36, I was waiting another 15 minutes after that given time while they weren’t even busy. Very unorganized. The server almost had me pay for it twice because she couldn’t pay attention to the fact I had already paid for it. The pictures speak for themselves. The deep fried California roll looks like they were fried an hour ago, and my negitoro roll was destroyed as soon as I opened the takeout container. Can’t believe this place gets 4.4 stars. Glad I’m just passing through town and won’t have to subjected to our seeing from this place ever again.

It’s been a while since our first visit and we shouldn’t have waited so long. Prompt, polite, clean, welcoming and of course great portion to price value sums up Japan Town. I’m a big fan of their new supper combos for only $9.95 especially since one of them includes Monkey Brain. We will back again as our choice for sushi in Duncan.

One of the top best Sushi restaurant in Duncan. Excellent sushi and tempura, the california rolls and dynamite roll lunch combo is my children's favorite. It consistently delivers quality excellent food, great friendly fast service, at a great price. Thank you to the owner who makes these delicious Sushi along with his wife in the kitchen. 🌸🌻🌸

Me and my husband are vegan and they have a lot of good options for us! We usually will get the veggie platter which comes with a ton of sushi rolls. Be sure to ask for no sauce on the honeymoon roll they use mayo in it. Everyone there is so friendly we go there at least once a week it’s so good. The lunch special is also good you can ask for tofu teriyaki and a lot of vegan sides to choose from.

Just moved to Duncan and I’ve been on the hunt for amazing ramen. Unfortunately the ramen here is subpar, the tonkotsu broth is decent, egg is way over cooked, and I know the pork traditionally isn’t crispy, but I asked for extra extra extra crispy pork and most of it fat. For the price point of $19 I expect my requests on the cook of the meat be correct.

This was my first time eating at the Duncan location and I was very disappointed. My order was ready on time so they get credit for that but my spicy peanut noodle dish was less than appetizing. The chunks of tofu were too big, there was so much sauce it was like a mushy noodle soup. The peanut sauce had an unusual flavour as well. It just wasn’t good. The kitchen was also very messy. I won’t be going back. They won’t stay open long at this rate.

I just paid $21 for a Yangzhou fried rice on DoorDash, and it showed up with no protein, just egg. This is absolutely ridiculous. The listing clearly stated it comes with shrimp and pork, yet I received a plain rice dish that isn’t even close to what I ordered. This is completely unacceptable.

I've noticed a consistent decrease in the amount of protein and vegetables for a while now. I don't order from there all the time, but enough to see the pattern. Today I mostly got rice, and they even forgot the sauce. If I wanted rice I would cook it at home, and it wouldn't cost me over $20. I think if they are going to cut back, they should reduce their prices.

Ordered the Pad Thai box & was super excited to try it, but was met with a lot of disappointment. The noodles were completely stuck together in a big clump & there was barely any sauce to flavour them with. I’ve had pad Thai from several places & it didn’t taste anything like it. Also ordered a different box as mild & it ended up being really spicy & the protein was dry. All around a very disappointing experience 👎🏻

Ordered delivery and had the worst food. Chicken was over cooked, sauce was all at the bottom, and my bubble tea was the worst offender. Tapioca balls were under prepared and crunchy I couldn't finish it. Will never order here again. Would do 0 stars if I could. Restaurant isn't even a shadow of its former self

We dropped in a couple days ago, ordered the butter chicken with a couple naan bread and headed home. At home we opened the container and it held A LOT of rice, butter chicken with sauce and absolutely no vegetables as described in recipe. Seriously disappointed for a $25 take away meal, including tip. Mostly rice filler. Won't be going back. Subway bowls beat them hands down with value, price and quality of meal.

Loved everything about this place—Delicious food, generous food portioning and very friendly staff. The service was exceptional—staff were attentive knowledgeable about the menu, and made great recommendations. It was an absolutely delightful experience.

Guangzhou Garden (Duncan, BC): A Cautionary Tale in Takeout Ordered takeout because locals said this was their go-to Chinese spot. If that’s true, I have questions. Big ones. I’m not above the occasional Canadianized Chinese food craving — bring on the sweet sauces and deep-fried dreams! But this was something else entirely. The bag smelled like it had been deep-fried in regrets and reused oil. Not a great start. Let’s break it down: 🥡 Chicken Fried Rice & Chow Mein: Pale, sad, and naked. No sauce, no flavour, no joy...and there is no hope that the fried rice ever met a hot pan. The chicken? Some kind of weird, cubed-up, processed mystery meat. I didn’t know poultry came in Lego form. 🥢 Dry Garlic Spare Ribs: Dry? Yes. Garlic? Barely. Saucy? Nope. They were breaded. WHERE was the glossy garlic sauce I was promised in my dreams? 🍚 Sweet & Sour Chicken Balls: Shockingly decent. Crispy, hot, and didn’t taste like betrayal. We love a low-bar win. 🐷 Sweet & Sour Pork: Meh. Edible. Wouldn't write home about it. Did write here about it though. 🥟 Egg Rolls: I’m still confused. These things were the size and shape of a calzone. Giant sheets of egg roll wrapper folded around a tablespoon of cabbage and a lone strip of pressed chicken. Half the inner layers were raw. I wanted crunch, not confusion. In summary: Disappointing. If this is Duncan’s top spot for Chinese food, we may need to form a support group for mid-Island takeout trauma. At $128 for enough food for 4 people, I guess my expectations were too high. Still hopeful though — onwards and upwards. The quest for decent Chinese food continues.

I Had the lunch buffett. The food was great, fresh. And awesome service. And I went back for the buffet again.

So many problems: 1. Their pricing on their site is WAY off. We've ordered from them twice, paid almost double what we were expecting. Asked for a receipt and an updated menu the second time, both of which failed to materialize. 2. Food delivery was fast. WAY too fast. Literally 10 minutes after an order, and we live 10 minutes away. So no wonder the food tasted microwaved. 3. The order was wrong. 3 of the 5 dishes we ordered were incorrect in the delivery. 4. The quality of the food is inconsistent. The first time we ordered it was okay - expensive but okay. The second time it was just gross! Vegetable chow mein literally had nothing in it but noodles. etc. etc. All in all, sad to say, if you're looking for Chinese, skip this one.

The buffet wasn't the worst I've had, it also wasn't the best. Everything tasted dried out, and that they don't have steamer trays between the food and burners. The staff was friendly, and polite. The only reason for giving 2 stars, is the staff. The tables & Chairs are straight out of the 70s and really uncomfortable, like they don't want you there for very long.

Went for the smorg tonight with my husband and 95 year old mother in law. Very disappointing. Almost all of the food was cold. The chicken wings were obviously refried for the second or third time and had absolutely no moisture left in them. The sweet and sour pork was so overcooked and dry that neither my husband or mother in law could chew or cut it. On the bright side I did enjoy the mussels and shrimp dumplings although that's not something the others would eat and the waitress was very pleasant. Cost was over $92 for three seniors for something that was not worth $10 a plate.

Very sad. Probably the worst chinese food I've had in years. So boring and plain with absolutely no pride in their product. Honey garlic pork was soggy and hard dry pieces of meat like reheated leftovers. Fried rice was plain white rice with minimum veggies and meat. Chicken balls 90% dough. Egg foo Yung only decent dish.

Beware of dishonest pricing...... I visited this restaurant over a year ago and was shocked when the bill came out higher than expected. The prices on the bill didn’t match what was advertised on the menu. When I questioned it, the staff simply said they hadn’t updated their menus yet – no apology, no effort to honor the listed prices. Now, a year later, I’m seeing that nothing has changed. Other customers are still leaving reviews about being overcharged. This isn’t a one-time mistake – it’s a clear pattern of deceptive business practices. Save your money and avoid the frustration – go somewhere that respects its customers and is upfront about its prices.

I love places that have a 'way' about them, this is one of those places. Stacks of pizza boxes, same guy feeding the oven, stacks of toppings you can count on. Not a place for sit down dining really. Pizza costs a bit more because there is way more of the fresh and pricy ingredients atop these. Plus the dough is 'flying' in that hand stretched way. Know your pizza though, one heavy with veggies will make a bit of a moist and messy munch. Want it crisp, choose fewer and dryer toppings (like a simple pepperoni mushroom) and it'll still be well sauced and cheesy. This is not lighter pizza made for a cheaper snack, this will fill you up, or feed you again later. My photos aren't whole pizzas, because I couldn't help my damn self.

So I was looking for a pizza place and stumbled upon Authentic Pizza , I thought I’d give it a try . Man Naav is a pizza connoisseur, I ordered the weekly special wings and a medium pie . Naav can throw down and his hot wings are killer . You won’t be disappointed. Cheers .

Hands down, the best pizza I’ve ever tasted. The crust is perfectly crispy on the outside yet soft inside. And don’t miss their desserts—the tiramisu is creamy and perfectly balanced, while the carrot cake is moist, flavorful, and melts in your mouth. If you love pizza and desserts, this place is a must-visit. I’ll definitely be coming back!

BEST pizza crust in town! Its perfectly crisp and chewy and they are very generous with the toppings. The owner is so nice and friendly and as someone who works downtown, I'm so excited that they've changed their hours to be open at 11 am and they will soon be offering pizza by the slice!

I don’t like pizza unless I have made it myself! Hubby was hungry and I didn’t have time to cook, so we ordered for pick up. THIS IS AMAZING PIZZA!! (Better than mine lol) If you like REAL authentic pizza, this is your place! It’s the real deal! We will definitely be back!

That first bite of pizza here instantly reminded me of Italy—crisp crust, gooey cheese, and fresh toppings that taste like they were picked the same day. Authentic Pizza isn’t just a name, it’s the real deal. Easily my favorite pizza place in Duncan! MUST TRY😍😍

RUN AWAY FROM THIS PLACE. Zero stars. Our experience was terrible with this pizza place. Came in visiting from out of town looked for a pizza place for a good easy meal and made the mistake of ordering here. Ordered 4 pizzas came to $150. We ordered 1 pizza WITHOUT cheese due to food sensitivity and they put cheese on it and then when we got home and saw the pizza in fact had cheese on it we called immediately to fix the mistake and they said by asking for no cheese we should have been clearer and should have said not to put any kind of cheese instead of just “no cheese” and refused to refund or fix it and then hung up on us. We are shocked, never have we received such poor treatment and service. We now are looking for another place to get dinner for our family member who can’t eat this pizza. I’d never recommend this place, their pizza is mediocre at best their prices are very high and their treatment of guests is despicable. Their website claims to create an atmosphere where customers are treated like family and if that’s the case I’m sad for their family. If I could give zero stars I would.

This place is incredible I had vegan poke bowl and it’s honestly one of the best things I have ever eaten. This is one of those you gotta eat here spots. Lots of vegan options as well I love this place!

Delicious gluten-free poke bowls. Sauce can be served on the side. Fast and friendly service. Patio is great on sunny days. Gluten-free banofee (banana-toffee) pie is so good! Cafe is located a bit back from road behind the associated Kahuna burger place.

Fresh and delicious poke. They do not offer a traditional poke bowl with just fish and rice… however I’m sure you can ask! I just didn’t want to be difficult. They have bowls that come with an assortment of sides (as you can tell from the pic). My bowl was bit on the saucy side, so I’ll deduct -1 point. Just ask for easy on the sauce. Mahalo!!

This place is a hidden gem. I chanced upon it while walking along downtown Duncan looking for healthy options and this definitely caught my eye. I ordered a Combo Poké and honestly, it was the best Poké I have ever had so far! The ingredients were really fresh, portion was really generous and really delicious! I don't think I can ever eat Poké bowls in Singapore ever again! Will definitely be back when I come visit Duncan the next time!

OMG this was so good! We had the tuna and salmon bowl and a pork wrap and they looked so good, but tasted So Much Better! 😋 All the ingredients are so fresh and the poke bowl is one of the best I’ve ever had ever, including in Hawaii :) And did I mention deserts?? 🤤 so yummy! and in house made juice and ginger lemonade too 🥰 This is definitely our new favourite go to place for food whenever we are on a road trip in those parts of the island 💕

We had yet to try out Aloha Bowls as we live in another community and typically frequent a different poke restaurant. Tonight we decided to drive to Duncan to try Aloha and were pleasantly confirmed on making a good decision as the meal was perfect and we enjoyed every bit of it. I had the salmon/tuna combo bowl and asked to have both the mango spice & wasabi mayo put on directly as they serve on the side which IMO is best put on the bowl. My only thoughts after the meal is a bit more sushi rice & salad greens added ad they are the cheapest ingredients and would help the visual of proportion size order cost. Lastly a topping of “crunch” of tempura flakes would be a killer addition. I 100% will be back again as the food was great & the little courtyard outdoor seating is a little hidden relaxing oasis. I might suggest to take your food to go and walk down the street to sit in the centennial square courtyard amongst the totems at the patio tables as a nice way to spend the evening.

They use quality ingredients and put a great effort into creating authentic hawaiin flavours. They are super creative too (homemade pineapple jam and double chocolate banana bread) The only reason I rated this a 4 is because they had one price listed on their website, and a higher price when I arrived. It's never a pleasant surprise once you've already made the journey to the restaurant. As someone who researches the restaurant before I arrive, I encourage restaurants to keep their websites up to date, especially if you are going to enforce a price increase. Edit: I have changed my review to a 5 because the restaurant immediately reached out to correct their website!

AMAZING customer service!! I recently saw that The Grove has gluten free items, so I decided to take a look and found a wonderful selection of items to choose from, some I haven't seen before. The young gentleman who was working the cash register saw my gluten free items and said he would go wash up first, as he was working with flour (gluten) before touching my items. Absolutely amazing and thoughtful! It was a very much appreciated extra step in his work day. I give him and The Grove a 10/10 😁

We thoroughly enjoyed the friendly nature of the young man serving us. He made us a wicked hot chocolate and delicious hot coffee which we took to our table. Then a young chef, proud of his creation brought us a refreshing caprese salad and a delightful Diabalo panini. We sat and enjoyed our lunch immensely. Food and service were so good - I made a point of telling them that they were top notch and truly went beyond our expectations. Only reason I took away a star is because of the way these two hard working lads were treated by the management. After we ate our food I went to the counter to order 2 gelatos. A lady was helping and I mentioned how amazed we were at the food and service. She took that with a smile, took my money and then we walked to the gelato display of about 8 flavours. We chose our gelatos but felt rather ‘regimented’ as she served us. We took our gelatos, sat down and didn’t really think too much about this until a few minutes later when the same lady/manager made a point of bringing out the first young lad that served us and berated him for how he had been scooping the gelato. He was apologetic and took the scolding in stride. Now I understand she may have been doing this as a means of ‘quality control’ - but it should be done with more grace and not directly in front of customers. They both went back into the kitchen until the lady returned again, but this time with the other worker. Same berating attitude in front of customers and this time, the employee looked rather humbled and embarrassed. Unfortunately, it took the high end polish off the amazing experience we were having and tarnished it with a poor management style as it really killed the atmosphere! We will probably come back again as perhaps she was having a bad day? I hope so... as those two lads did an incredible job and did not deserve being publicly shamed.

A lovely selection of Italian groceries and goods. They have pizza to take out and a seating area outside which is quite nice. They have ice cream too although I haven’t tried it. I love the deli selection, it’s excellent!

Thank you Laura and team!! We had exceptional gluten free food catered for our daughter's bridal shower. The meat lasagna, arugula caprese salad, and dessert platter were all outstanding!! Everyone LOVED the food-it was truly exceptional and we were thrilled to have had Grove Hall Farm Italian Kitchen cater this event for our daughter's special day! Fantastic food and service!!

Best hot chocolate I’ve had since my last trip to Europe. My wife loved her chai and my daughter said coffee was outstanding. Our pizza was excellent.

The services were great! The pizza was okay. The almond cake was delicious! The coffee was average. Overall my experience was great! Next time I will try the Gelato.

Purchase a tiramisu "cake" . Staff were so helpful when I asked for enough for my son in law's birthday. It was delicious!

Went for the Valentine Dinner with 9 others and we all enjoyed an amazing dining experience with 5 course presentation second to none. The service was attentive and professional and we started to talk about the next time we could return before the meal was finished. A great dining experience.

This was a true 5* experience. Wonderful atmosphere, food, libations, and service. Highly recommend. We ate vegetarian, and it was off the charts. Love the animals

This is a student centered learning experience for culinary students. But the food is so delicious, it's as good as a five-star restaurant.

Delicious food, cozy ambiance. My husband and I love this restaurant and love to share the experience with our friends.

I love the old building, it has such charm. The University has the Culinary school here and the food is wonderful!

Took my staff there. Wonderful experience.

Fantastic Food!

Subway varies depending on the location. The last few times I've come to the Duncan location I have been very happy. Good service, great work ethic, polite and my sandwich comes out the exact way i picture it before ordering. I wish all locations were as good as this one.

Went to the Subway by Canadian Tire on April 4th at approximately 4:30 pm. Not disappointed! The two young men working were efficient, friendly and just overall happy. I truly enjoyed the experience. Thank you for your great service!!!!!

I am very disappointed with the service I received from an employee named Aileen. She was extremely rude during my visit and showed no interest in treating customers with respect. Instead of being polite and attentive, she was dismissive, impatient, and acted as if helping me was a burden. This is not acceptable in a customer service role, especially in a place like Subway where people expect a friendly and welcoming environment. If this is how staff are allowed to treat customers, it reflects very poorly on the management. I hope her behavior is addressed immediately, because no customer should have to deal with such unprofessional service.

It's difficult to evaluate because the food was delicious! The problem, I ordered a salad and only received half of the usual amount! My husband's sandwich was the same as usual, foot-long, plenty of filling!

I am very disappointed with the service I received from an employee named Rupi. She made my sandwich in a very poor manner. She didn’t even ask me what kind of cheese I wanted and instead choose it herself, which shows a lack of patience and care. Her customer service was extremely rude and unprofessional. Honestly, in my entire life I have never experienced such poor food quality and such terrible service. This is completely unacceptable in customer service. I hope the management immediately addresses her misbehavior.

I occasionally buy from this location and I've never had a problem with the staff here. They've always been pleasant and efficient, and when you tell them you want extra or 'a lot' of whatever, you get enough that you don't have to ask for more. Lines during busy periods tend to move quickly - the only slowdowns I've ever seen have involved customers who let their brain take the day off.

Very clean staff was great

One of the best sushi places in town and the woman who runs it is the kindest most amazing lady!

The best sushi in Duncan! Everything was spectacular. Even though she was by herself and had several orders at the same time, including our $100 dollar order, it was done within a reasonable time. It was close to closing and everything was still so fresh, perfectly cooked and executed. Beautifully presented. They care about the food they are making for you. It was absolutely delicious! We will be back again and again.

First not called Aha anymore. It's Togo Duncan. And I tossed out most of my meal because it was disgusting.

Felt like something fast but not the usual nasty burger. I stopped by here for some teriyaki chicken, and it was great! $16 for a large serving of chicken and sitr-fried vegetables on a bed of rice. There was plenty of both meat and veg. Tasted very good - and it was fast! I recommend!

Easily some of the best sushi in town. Love the service, as the staff is very friendly. I'm big into spice, and their Volcano Roll was told to me by the staff, to be the spiciest. It was, no doubt, delicious accompanied by a magnificent Deluxe Udon Noodle Soup with fresh veggies, beef, chicken, and shrimp. I found I had a desire for even more spice for the sushi (just personal preference), and upon returning they offered to make it spicier by adding non deepfried raw spicy tuna, and extra spicy mayo for virtually no additional costs. Finally I'd like to add that the overall pricing of the menu is more than reasonable, especially given the delicious quality of the food. THANK YOU Ahi Sushi & Teriyaki!!! I will be back, and recommend you to everyone!

Very friendly and courteous family business. Food is fantastic and prepared fresh in front of the customer. There are a wide variety of dishes available. Pre-made sushi cooler is also available however it's so popular it"s pretty much freshly made in minutes. Rated five stars, and there's more dishes to still try. The deluxe Udon soup is a family favourite, along with everything else!

Great little sushi shop. All the usual offerings but with some nice Korean dishes too. The sushi was fresh and tasty. They could be more generous with their seaweed salad portions. I will definitely order from them again.

Price same but size has changed. It’s a medium pizza (I bought large) i have been going there over 10 years. Same pizza all those years until today. The pizza usually fills up box. They will lose my business if you don’t take care of long-term customers.

Good place to sit in an have a slice, however there is an art decal on the glass infront of the sitting area so you cannot see outside from where you sit

I used to dread approaching the bottle neck known as Duncan... one way to ease the rage is to stop in a grab a few slices of pizza. The slices are big enough to numb the entire aggravation of getting to the other side of town. Plenty of cheese, quality toppings and no wait time. Thumbs up from me.

Best pizza in Duncan! Great service, fast delivery and awesome selection when stopping in for a slice!

Great local pizza spot! Tasty, well-made pizza with lots of variety. Friendly service and good value for the quality.

This used to be my favourite pizza place in Duncan, but they have now screwed up my order 3 times in a row and last night it took them 1.5 hours to deliver my pizza. I order the same pizza every time and they don't seem to read the order properly anymore. Wrong cheese, regular crust instead of thick, burnt subdried tomatoes. Kmon guys...do better! What happened to you!

They always remember us and give us great fast service and good food. Gluten free to boot. Haha and it tastes good.
