Blackfish Cafe |

950 Wharf St, Victoria V8W 1T3 250-385-9996
|

Distance:
~274 m * |
|
|
 |
| |
Description:
DOWNTOWN. This unique floating restaurant is a great place to spend an afternoon sipping a martini and watching the activity on the water, either ensconced in the cozy interior or enjoying the view from the heated, covered patio. Although Blackfish is known for having exceptional fish and chips, there's more to their menu than just fried seafood and potatoes. Start out with chili-lime-cilantro prawns or a curry-mango spinach salad. The halibut and chips are decidedly tasty, to be sure, but you can also opt for a burger or a sandwich at lunch, and at dinner there are steaks, pastas and additional seafood preparations on the menu. Freshly baked muffins and other treats hit the spot at breakfast or in the afternoon. |

Description:
INNER HARBOUR. Nautical Nellie's is known for its breathtaking view of the bustling Inner Harbour, and has enough seafaring décor elements to keep even young ones entertained. The roster of appetizers runs from escargot to Cajun clam strips, plus interesting salads with a bevy of slightly unusual ingredients. If there are at least two or three in your party, try the "Colossal Canoe," a heap of mostly Asian inspired tidbits such as crispy calamari with citrus mirin sauce and lobster and fennel spring roll. The entrée menu is truly huge – if you came with 30 of your closest friends, not only would no two people have to order the same thing, but everyone would also get exactly what he or she wanted, with no compromises. There's even a raw bar with a big selection of fresh oysters. |

Ferris' Oyster Bar and Grill |

|
|
Distance:
~0.584 km * |
|
|
 |

Description:
DOWNTOWN. Opened in 1991, Ferris' had exposed brick and fun local artwork long before they really hit the big time. It's cool and trendy, not a bit stuffy, and more than reasonably priced. Shellfish in all its forms is the house specialty – oysters come in a variety of styles, from Texas to Thai; the cioppino is as good as any Nonna's; and the prawns are tender little morsels that defy the doggie bag. There are also a wide selection of fish dishes and pastas, and amazingly good (and huge) burgers. |

JAMES BAY. Check out Blue Crab's daily seafood specials – they only use seafood and fish the day it's been caught. Depending on the season, you can expect to find salmon, crab or spotted prawns. A house specialty is pan-roasted Pacific salmon fillet with a hazelnut crust. Non-seafood eaters will have plenty to choose from with choices like smoked chicken sausage in portobello mushroom broth and tenderloin with peanut sauce. Breads and desserts are all prepared in-house, and the wine list favors California and local vintages. Be sure to ask for a table with a view of the harbour. Smart-casual attire. |
