Best Contemporary Canadian Restaurants in Central Saanich

The service was good. The cocktail is great. Only on thing is they should double check for the latest update on the GST exemptions on the wine which they should not charged on our bottle of wine.

Really enjoyed a nice dinner at the Arbutus room after walking around Buchart Gardens. Burrata appie was outstanding, the Calabrian chilli in there was the perfect touch! For my main I had the scallops and risotto, it was fantastic, such a great array of mushrooms in the risotto, it was seasoned perfectly! So nice to have some dishes with flavour finally!! (I find most restaurants don’t season enough). The ambiance was perfect with the live jazz music. Love the room, the light fixtures are beautiful, the service was fantastic. My water glass was always full, cutlery switched out between courses. Just such a wonderful experience, we enjoyed every bit of it and we will be back for more for sure! We don’t venture out to Brentwood Bay often, but I will make more of an effort to get out there because this restaurant was fantastic!

Outstanding! My first time and was not disappointed. The staff were lovely, and the food delicious. We enjoyed the New Years menu and couple of items that stand out were the duck, the beef, and the deconstructed apple crisp. I highly recommend.

The staff, food, and service are next level amazing. Always such a treat to visit this restaurant.

I am very fussy about my dining experiences. It has to be value for money while also satisfying my need for service quality and gorgeous food. Wow! Courtney room is my new favorite restaurant. The room is beautiful and the service friendly and oh so professional. The food is beautiful and focused on local sourcing. That crab ravioli and focaccia bread. I could eat it every day. So well done! Magnolia Hotel is a lovely place to stay to enjoy a complete night out.
