Wow this place is legit! We were here on a July 4th weekend, got in line around 11:20 (it wasn't…read moretoo bad) and watched the line just get progressively longer. There's umbrellas along the queue so you're mostly shaded while waiting to order. The wait to order goes by somewhat slowly - in a way that feels well timed to not overwhelm the kitchen. For eating, there's counter space along the water and there's a FEW small stools to sit on underneath umbrellas. Honestly everything does look VERY good and I would definitely come back multiple times; I'd be interested in trying nearly everything on the menu! For this first visit, we got one piece of fried halibut and the poutine. The chips (fries) are VERY good. Next time I wouldn't order the poutine as a party of two because it is pretty salty and filing (maybe it makes sense to share with a larger party). I've got my eye on the salmon sandwich and the tacones for next time.

Going against the general crowd opinion about fish and chips…read more Chips actually were very good. 5/5. But fish for me was not as afresh as I expected it to be and the coating felt little thick for my taste. On the other hand the tacones were lip smacking good. We tried ones with cod but the the flavor was highlighted coz of added coriander seeds in their sauce. Loved the coleslaw. Can't eat those deep fried fish without refreshing side due dish. Salmon was also good. 4/5. We stayed in line for good 40 minutes but found a table along the boardwalk. This was on a Monday evening. At 6 PM. Thankfully, all the time busy marina kept our toddler busy. It's a small shack and right between a seaplane harbor and kayak rental. WOULD DEFINITELY RECOMMEND TACONES!

I emailed Judy in advance with some special requests re: gluten free and vegetarian food and I received a prompt response via email saying that it was no problem for her to accommodate my requests.

I was very impressed and would highly recommend her for future events and catering gigs. Thank you so much, Judy & staff. :)

Also called Street Food Hustlin, we noticed this food cart in Victoria inside the Inner Harbour…read moreCauseway, overlooking the Marina, the last time we were in Victoria. It had moved a bit further north to a parking lot area, providing a bit more space. We had made a conscious effort to revisit it, so was happy that we found it and actually got some Canadian dollars so we could pay for it. They accept credit cards now, but we still used cash since we had it (and cheaper for the merchant). We had already eaten lunch on the cruise boat, but the long walk gave us an appetite. One can tell the Filipino influence because of the flag prominently displayed. There is a gas grill that is used to cook the dishes. It's a very tight menu, one side focused on hot dogs and hamburgers while the other on filipino street foods (bbq sticks). 2 sticks is $12 CAD, and we added some rice for $3. The choices for the protein on the bbq sticks was pork shoulder, pork intestine, pork ears, or chicken. We chose pork shoulder. The dishes are prepared fresh, so it took a bit of time, but it went by quick enjoying the beautiful weather and scenery. We found a ledge to sit on, and the sticks was easier to eat since it really is a finger food, while the rice required the provided fork. As for the food itself, the rice was plentiful and good, the pork was OK. We know pork shoulder is very fatty and full of connective tissue, but wish it had been cooked a lot longer to crisp everything up or make it more tender (or choose a different cut of meat like loin). As it was, the meat was pretty tough. The sauce was more of an american BBQ sauce using banana ketchup than a soy sauce based asian flavor, and had great flavor, especially once caramelized. I'm thinking the other meat choices might be better.

Four of us for lunch... I had the halibut burger which I…read morethought was tasty (grilled with tartar sauce, pickle, lettuce, tomato and onion). Other three had the panko oyster burgs. Hubby defined his as heavily breaded, chewy flotsam. My MIL also thought the oysters were chewy. Hubby didn't give me a bite...knew it wasn't for me. Fries were great...nice and crisp. Cole slaw was bland. Don't bother. Might go back for fish and chips (they can clearly fry things nicely) or the halibut burger. Outside table was nice in the spring sun.
