Oaks Restaurant and Grill - Oak Bay

The choices were wonderful. I had lamb stew; but had a hard time deciding. One person had prawns and spinach. There were four of us and can't remember what the others ordered; but we were all very pleased.

We had a great salad with prawns,spinach and orange slices and the sandwich of the day with turkey,cranberries and a side salad.Swift service,reasonable prices.Recommended as family restaurant.

We often stay in the inner harbour area of Victoria in late April to escape the last throws of an Alberta winter and get some early green & flowers. This year we took transit to the Art Walk in the Oak Bay area and stopped for lunch in Oak Bay Village. The Oaks Restaurant was getting full about 11:45 on Sunday so we got seated just before the final rush. A special tip of the hat to Meghan for her smile across the room and the menu delivery even though we were not her table.We enjoyed our fish taco and BLT - the quantities were good and the service vg.We were back in the area three days later for lunch and actually had Meghan serve us about 1 pm as the lunch crowd was leaving. We had another good meal with a chicken burger and blue cheese / mushroom burger.We enjoy walking around Oak Bay and were glad to find the Oaks Restaurant. We will return the next time we are in Victoria.

The staff was friendly. The food was fresh and fast. The butter nut squash soup was amazing. Big breakfasts too. Great stop.

If the Penny Farthing is too busy or too noisy for you then the Oaks is a good alternative if going for a meal. Food is good and a selection of draught beers. Probably better for brunch or lunch as closes at seven most nights. Friday nights is often live live music (folk, jazz) and is busier. The curry dish is good for lunch or dinner.
