However, even with a full restaurant we were served in a reasonable time and the food was good. We recommend the curry dinner with fish - very tasty and way more than we could finish! Gluten-free options and a few vegetarian items are also available on the menu. The restaurant is in the center of Sooke, right at the third stop light, with adiquate parking in the area. You can take a stroll down the hill to the local pier afterwards and watch the fishermen (and women) catching crabs off the pier. Dinner and entertainment all in one stop!
