🇨🇦 Victoria’s Only Restaurant on Canada’s Top 100 List!

Rarely does a fine dining experience leave me craving to try every single dish on the menu — but this place did it. And not a single dish disappointed! We ordered the Lobster Pasta and Grilled Sea Bass — both incredibly flavorful! 🦞🐟 The sea bass came with a bell pepper-tomato sauce that was tangy and slightly spicy. One bite and I thought: “This tastes like the legendary grilled fish from Chef’s Table!” 😂 Drinks were also exceptional! I tried the Kinomé — a toasted sesame oil-washed whiskey with shiso and aloe. Genius combination! Refreshing and perfect for summer. 🥃✨ If you book, request the Chef’s Counter! You’ll watch the kitchen in action (like a real-life Hell’s Kitchen!), interact with the chef, and hear stories behind each dish. 👨🍳🔥 To all Victoria locals: Don’t miss this gem! I regret not trying it sooner. Who knows when I’ll be back on the island… 💙 Marilena Cafe & Raw Bar #CanadaEats #FineDining #VictoriaBC #FoodieHeaven #WestCoastCuisine #Top100Restaurant #FoodDreams 🍝🌊🍸 #ChefsCounterExperience #LobsterPasta #SeaBassPerfection 🎉👌
