I’ve had 2 really great experiences eating here. The best lamb I’ve ever eaten, and phenomenal service. Above & beyond. Thank you to the manager, the servers & the chef. I will definitely be back when I’m in Nanaimo again 👍 I didn’t have to wait for a table because I reserved ahead of time. I recommend booking reservations if you don’t want to be disappointed.
