Reviews for White Spot Fort Street in Victoria, BC
Service was improved this visit but it still is a wait to pay the bill....understaffed perhaps? Windows appeared acceptable so... they have been cleaned. All in all a decent visit.good Read more
Slow to be seated, even with a reservation. Host wasn't very friendly. Told us to "enjoy" in a tone completely void of joy.... Waitress was friendly but never checked on us after bringing food. Had to flag her down for stuff during dinner, then hunt herdown after for our bill. Food was just so-so. My beef dip was dry and the "au jus" was too thick, more like a gravy, so itdidn't soak into the bread nicely like it's supposed to. The others' food was mediocre as well. There were only a handful oftables and several staff working out front, so service could've been way better. The Quadra at McKenzie location is better.Fresher food, and more updated restaurant.

Went for Turkey dinner special. Service was good, dinner was good. Restaurant ran out of pumpkin pie disappointingly. So we had... apple pie a la mode. Pie was pale and too sweet. Nat's lager and pale ale rounded off dinner. I thought the turkey dinner was alittle overpriced but I didn't mind as I didn't have to cook the bird. All good. Read more
While the food was good the service was not due to being understaffed. While there were three additional staff they were doing... little to help the one person serving. Waited a 10 minutes for cream for my coffee. Waited many minutes to get my bill. Therestaurant needs a person on site to orchestrate the staff. I don't think I'll be going back anytime soon and spending $26 for adisappointing experience. Read more
Service was decent. Like every where they are short staffed. Food is always good. Had the double double burger always a great... meal. Read more
Terrible value and service. My son had 4 very small waffles for 14 dollars. The service was poor. Has to ask multiple times for... water and cutlery. Couldn?t find the waitress when we were done the meal. There?s lots of smaller local restaurants in the areathat put this place to shame. Read more
Just ordered clubhouse and fries thru skip the dishes. Over 45 minutes and watching tracking making 7 stops before I got my... order completely cold. Not even luke warm. They only way I knew that a one point the bread was toasted was because of thecolor. Definitely NOT worth the money it cost. Order, taxes, tip etc over $33 for cold food that I had to reheat. I will notbe ordering again from here. Read more
I don't even know where to start. The waitress was unsure if the buns where vegan. The salads advertised on the menu that come... with the burger aren't vegan. In addition, you have to state that you want a VEGAN beyond meat avocado burger otherwise theywill put ranch dressing which isn't vegan. The beyond meat was burnt. My first bite tasted like carbon. I was sooo put off (eventhough I was hungry) that I didn't want to eat anything at WhiteSpot. I took off the most burnt parts of the burger to make anattempt to enjoy the meal. The pieces are on the right side of the dish. With a mouth full of carbon it was impossible to enjoy.The manager and waitress were extremely apologetic and kind. After my boyfriend spoke to the manager we learned that they couldmake a vegan salad. As a vegan who is dating a non-vegan going out to eat at places that cater to western style food, ischallenging. The most surprising aspect to me is that vegan food is soo straight forward and simple. If you are vegan and decideto go to Whitespot, I suggest you order the Teriyaki Donburi bowl. If you choose to go for the burger, order the GF buns as themanager said they were vegan and ask for vegan salad, not on the menu, or ask for fries. As kind as the manager and the waitresswere I felt that the options weren't authentically catering to vegans. Vegan mayo and vegan cheese exists that can be easilypurchased to make a spectacular vegan burger. Thank you for tonight's lesson Whitespot. Read more
