Reviews for The Oaks Restaurant and Tearoom in Victoria, BC

Went there on a Sunday, just me. They took forever to seat me. I ordered a coffee and the shortrib eggs benny, the first mug she... gave had a lipstick mark on which was replaced when asked. The eggs benny there was plenty of shortrib but lacking of flavor andsalt! I don't usually add extra salt after food is served but I had to. The only tasty thing was their parmesan potatoes! Iwould try a dinner to give them another chance. Read more

A classic restaurant and tea house with considerable local history. Relatively inexpensive with tasty daily specials, each of... which has ample proportions. All tea pots are a good size and come with Royal Dalton bone china and a memorable tea spoon.Several wines and beers to match many tastes plus live music Friday evenings. Well worth the visit.

Came here for dinner after a self guided bike tour of the beaches in Victoria BC with my partner. We walked in and we were... kindly greeted by our server Soleil. As we sat down she immediately told us about the food special (steak & shrimp) and soup ofthe day. We couldn't pass on the food special so we each ordered steak and shrimp with the ceasar salad. The food was delicious.For dessert we shared the ice cream brownie sundae. Omg was it delicious! Would definitely recommend this restaurant if you livein Victoria or visiting. Read more

Prices are reasonable with generous portions. This was for 3 people. We did take a while to be seated, because the fridge... obscures a bit of the waiting area, and the workers didn't regularly check on the waiting area to see if any customers werethere. But once we were seated, the food arrived quickly and service was good. Read more

A lovely & charming restaurant with delicious brunch selections. First time, I had the Veggie Benedict, and another time, the... massive Veggie Omelette. Both items were delicious. Servers were efficient and friendly. The only minor "complaint" would bethe Red Rose tea. The choice for their black tea was a bit disappointing for a Tea Room. However, their rich and decadentchocolate brownie made up for it. ;) Read more

Excellent restaurant. Very clean and lots of COVID protocols so we felt safe. Friendly and efficient server. Food came out in a... nice pace, not to fast not too slow. Saturday had a roast beef dinner for $18 that is amazing! Best deal in Victoria and soyummy. The brownie is excellent as well. Drink prices and food prices very reasonable compared with similar places in thearea. We will definitely come again. Read more

We had the Full Tea with some nice tea choices, a nice presentation, unique table ware, the finger sandwiches were very good,... and the scones were large and excellent. Down side was no clotted cream or strawberry jam, store bought sweet dessert and thesame jam ingredients were used in the parfait. Would have paid a little more for authentic English (knowing the difference).This restaurant probably would be a better Burger Tap Room experience. Read more

Friendly service. Good prices for breakfast / lunch. Has a unique old time tea room charm. I liked my English breakfast but... wasn't it supposed to come with a grilled tomato? Oh well, still good! Read more
