Salt anyone!?!? Avoid at ALL COSTS

Quite possibly the worst food I have ever eaten, and that includes fast food. Overpriced, under-presented, over-salted (to the extreme), overly boring.

What I ate:

antipasto combo platter, caesar salad

Absolutely horrifying. Calamari was extremely oversalted. Dolmatas were cold and rubbery. How can you wreck hummus? I don’t know, but they managed it! Salad was basically salad-in-a-bag with Renee’s Caesar dressing. Pathetic.

Extras:

I came here for: a family meal

My meal cost: between $10 and $25

I tipped: less than 15%

I have been there twice and have had a great eating experience, are you sure your not a local owner who is jealous??

absolutely not. I’m a grad student at UVic and value my “going out” budget. Very disappointed as was hoping for a local alternative to downtown eating. Guess I’ll keep waiting. Maybe you like salt.

Try the seafood pasta or the seafood wellington special, my husband and I find this outstanding. We have gone twice now on a fridaynight, and plan to go again this week. Maybe it was a off night, I know they have only been open for a couple of weeks. The first night we went I spilled my drink and the owner Kay replaced it with out any ? Maybe you should have let her know that the food was to salty, I’m sure she would have made it right.
