Best Neighborhood Gem Restaurants in Sooke

Our family of four including my 8 yrs old had dinner during Thanksgiving holiday. As a tourist from San Jose and grew up in Japan, Oshi Nori is a great sushi restaurant. Much more authentic and reasonable than the ones in San Jose. Everyone served us are friendly and helpful. They have vegetarian choices such as cucumber roll, egg roll, mushroom roll and edamame that my little one enjoyed. I strongly recommend this place.

Our server , Sean, really helped to make the experience. Great venue and great all round.

What a wonderful experience at Joe Fortes—no wonder it’s an institution! We unfortunately kept experiencing delays beyond our control and had to move our booking no less than 3 times within the hour and they were so, so gracious about it. Our server, Norm, was fantastic, and gave us excellent recommendations! The food was perfection-favorites were the calamari, lobster bisque, sablefish, arctic char, and mussels (basically everything we ordered; and the pavlova (my own baking specialty) and carrot cake were perfectly delectable! I will need to come by every time I visit (I’m from California). Make sure you make reservations as they get busy!

One of mine and my daughter's favourite restaurants in Vancouver! The Food, the portion sizes, the atmosphere, the service. All exceptional. Nice small plates so we can try a few different things and share. Just dined there yesterday and already looking forward to our next visit.

Excellent service from all serving staff for our business dinner on this occasion especially from our main server. Food was prepared first class with explanations for each dish. We will be back!
