I guess for some time now they have been closed Sunday and Monday, which is odd for a “sports bar”.

With the promise of patio season on the horizon a trio of Island eateries have been rated among a top 100 list.

 

 

Finn’s Seafood, Chops and Cocktails in Victoria, The Dining Room at The Butchart Gardens in Brentwood Bay and Unsworth Restaurant in Mill Bay all made the cut as online restaurant reservation provider OpenTable unveiled its Canada’s 100 Best Restaurants for Outdoor Dining.

Never been to Finn’s, but the other two are indeed outstanding.

After many years the La Fiesta Mexican Cafe at Douglas and Broughton (in Sussex Place near Blenz) has closed for good.

Smile Chicken, a Korean chicken restaurant, will be opening in the same spot.

I have never seen a chicken smile. If they do it must be as rare as hens' teeth.  ;)

 

Edit: I stand corrected.

It's actually been closed for many months now. 

They tried to come back after COVID, but closed quite quickly after re-opening, and they haven't been open since.

Maybe it’s just me, but Smile Chicken’s logo reminds me of Amazon’s logo.

I wonder what Andrew Jassy would have to say about this logo?

Il Covo Trattoria. Hands down my favourite, albeit not large, outdoor dining space.
