We came here for lunch and enjoyed a fresh, local, and tasty all vegetarian meal. I love their commitment to sustainability and local, seasonal products and appreciated being able to choose several vegetarian options. My partner and I shared an Asian salad roll and a market-fresh cornucopia salad. Indulged in a local white wine and my partner got a cocktail

Spectator from beginning to end. This place was buried in google results but so glad I went deep to find it because the historic building is beautiful and the outside patio garden is lovely. The star of the show is the food. Salad rolls are creative and delicious. Pacific rim crepes…yum. Great cocktails. Fantastic service. Highly recommend.

This is my favorite restaurant to visit whenever I’m in Courtenay. The menu is fresh, local, and creative. And Kaya was the best server, so friendly and attentive, she made our night perfect!

I only feel the price is for fine dining, but the food and service is not fine dining at all.
We came for dinner yesterday, order a appetizer (seafood shack), two entree(beef cheek and seafood pasta) and cheese pizza for kids. The restaurant is not that busy, tables were empty, but it’s very very slow. The appetizer came at 19:21, and the entrees came at 19:52. And most unacceptable is the mussels in the pasta is very not fresh. I told my server that the mussels in the pasta are very bad, very not fresh. The sever just say “Thank you for letting me know”, and then he go, then nothing else happened. No explanation, no apologies, nothing.

Kid free date night with husband. Was looking to be spoiled by flavourful food, and Locals succeeded in doing that. Sat on the patio, shaded and comfortable. We shared Beaver Meadow Farms Beef Carpaccio ( my favorite, and could eat this as my meal, mmm capers). Hubby had Jumbo Prawns & Scallop Thai Curry and I enjoyed the Lois Lake Steelhead Salmon Risotto. Our waiter suggested the salmon risotto while I was looking at the mushroom risotto, and it was solid advice. Prior to our food, we enjoyed a petite savory bite from the chef and finished or with a lucious chocolate petite desert (also complimentary). Just the experience we needed!
