Today we had the smoked salmon benny half order with a fresh salad and my hubby on the Dungeness crab and prawn benny with the roasted potato's and onions. We were very pleased with both. What I love most about the Benny is their hollandaise sauce - so lemony and light and they put the perfect amount on each - ie not drenched but nicely poured. The staff is super nice and overall the place feels homey. You also aren't waiting in lines to get good brunch which is always a bonus especially coming from Vancouver where everyone and their dog is going for brunch and lining up. This spot is very unassuming and kind of hidden behind the building. Highly recommend! They also have a cute patio if you're feeling some sunshine!

The service was impeccable from start to finish. The staff and management were warm, attentive, and clearly passionate about what they do. Every dish was beautifully presented and absolutely delicious. We had reserved in advance and asked for a booth and the manager gave these 2 old guys a fantastic booth by the window, which made the evening even more special. A memorable dining experience with outstanding food and service. Highly recommended!

To start, the service is bad. When we sat down we waited for the for the waiter for longer than…read moreyou'd expect in a not crowded place. He immediately told us outside coffee isn't allowed. I was about to get up and leave when he decided it was fine when we told him it was from Crust Bakery. He said "oh ok we just don't allow Starbucks". Very odd policy. I wish we had left! The food took forever to come out and ended up being cold. The crepes were chewy and soggy. The strawberries were soggy and soft. The waiter never came that much to check up on us. Crepes should be a light, thin, fluffy not huge and dense. The ambiance was ok, very cheerful filled with colorful cartoonish food pics. I would not recommend unless you have patience ... I've been waiting for my check for 20 minutes!

The smell of breakfast wafting from the restaurant grabbed my sniffer and led us to the front of the store to look at the menu. A Quick Look and we decided to give the pickle a go. Me and the boss decided on the Mexican omelet and a coffee. What a meal. Toast and crisp, delicious hash browns shared the plate with the main attraction, an enormous three egg omelet stuffed with peppers, tomatoes, mushrooms, bacon and onions topped with cheese and salsa sauce. The boss had me finish her omelet but by God I finished all mine too.... Thankfully we had a walk back to the hotel to work some of that big breakfast off. Prices are in line with every other place here in Victoria, however this is a local, husband and wife team that make awesome food and seem genuinely happy to be serving their brand of home cooking to the people. I wouldn't hesitate to drop in again when we return and try another menu item, wish we had found you sooner!

You're going there for the solid rib sticking food that will make you want to come back again. There is no pretense here, just straight forward what you see is what you get. Ryan M took great care of us while there, we backed for nothing. That said he has a personality, which we love, no shrinking violet here. My traditional bennie was good, with house cooked ham, eggs exactly as I asked for and potatoes shaped differently than you typically see. They were great for mopping up the leftovers. The lovely K Huevos Incredibalos was also good. She opted for two tortillas instead of three and enjoyed every bite. Would we go back, hell yeah we would!

Friend got a custom omelette for $21.95, and I had the Herb Hudson Benedict for $23.95. Their POS system had issues.

I like that there were trivia cards on the table for you to entertain yourself while you wait for your food. The staff was very nice and attentive. I got the What the Cluck fried chicken and stuffed fries pancakes. I did see the reviews saying the portions were huge but this could've definitely fed 2. For $23, I think this was a steal. I only was able to finish one layer of waffles, the piece of chicken, and some potatoes in my sitting and had to pack them for later. The pancakes had herbs (green onions I think?) stuffed in between which was interesting and I didn't expect it. My two complaints about the meal are that the outer coating of the fried chicken was overfried, resulting in a darker coat and the chicken to be slightly tougher, and that there was only one small piece of chicken. It definitely is a potato-centric portion, with loads of fries and side potatoes. I think if I was to come back, I wouldn't get this again but it settled my curiosity. My partner enjoyed her eggs benedict.

The pizza is well cooked, but also warms up well for dinner as we had enough to eat it three more times. It's a great location, right on the corner and the staff is super friendly and very helpful.
