The Courtney Room deserved its hype, best meal of our trip
Barb's fish and chips on the wharf with the seals around, perfect afternoon
Jam Cafe lineup is crazy but worth it
Ferris' upstairs oyster bar is a hidden gem
Totally agree about Ferris'
Bodega in Trounce Alley for tapas and sherry, so good
Red Fish Blue Fish every time we go to Victoria, the tacones are so good
Il Terrazzo is lovely in the courtyard with the heaters on
Missing Pagliacci's honestly, it's been there forever
Nourish is great if you're vegetarian, the house is so cute
