Victoria would be incomplete without a gourmet restaurant serving local seafood. The dinner menu here features both “land and sea” items prepared with various savoury sauces, herbs and spices. Most items are gluten-free and there are several small plate options. Renowned Executive Chef Geoffrey Tintinger prepares daily specials using fresh, seasonal ingredients. You can take in the gorgeous harbourfront views, whether inside their sophisticated dining room or on their cozy patio. Blue Crab has an impressive selection of delicious BC wines to complement your meal.
View this Smart ListGreat food and great views are always on the menu at this award-winning restaurant. Try the chef's choice selection of fresh oysters, available by the half-dozen for $16. They're served with lemon, fresh horseradish and mignonette. The restaurant's annual Oysterfest (available seasonally, usually starting in April) is among the best times to visit for fresh oysters and inventive, oyster-themed dishes.
View this Smart ListVictoria is famous for two things: great views and great seafood. The Blue Crab offers both, with special attention paid to food restrictions. Roughly half the Blue Crab’s menu is gluten-free, or can be made without gluten, giving patrons access to the wide variety of delicious seafood for which Victoria is famous. Those with gluten-related restrictions can relax while soaking up a beautiful view of the harbour and indulging in some of the best seafood in town.
