Always a lovely time coming here when we have family visiting, or to celebrate a birthday. The panoramic view, of course, is outstanding and is a rare glimpse at all of Victoria. We enjoyed the flank steak, calamari, seared ahi tuna and a burger. My personal fave is the rich - and authentic - raspberry sorbet. Service couldn’t be better. We were highly attended to, with friendly service and a keen eye on our needs. Thanks for making another meal very special for my family.

We were recommended here by a local business owner. Boy, we can't thank her enough. After a 14 hr plane trip the incredible views from Vista 18 topped off our first night in Canada. Menu was interesting, different and promised quality ingredients. Not wrong. Our entrees and main courses were sensational. Peter was our perfect and knowledgeable host and all the other staff were helpful and friendly. You guys deserve your 5 stars. They won't let me give 6.

I had a beautiful dinner as the sun was setting. Went for my 25th birthday with my parents and really enjoyed the servers and food. We got a delicious side order of mussels, and I got the Vista 18 veggie burger (with gluten free bun) and added feta which was super yummy. Was a little shocked with some of the culinary choices, like the three whole yellow potatoes in my burger, or the pop rocks in the creme brulee, but they were still delicious :•) ! Best suited for special occasions as it is quite pricey depending on what you order
