Wind Cries Mary - Victoria

Best drinks in town What drew us in was the quasi hidden entrance into a darker ambience… immediately noticed the charm of this place. Classy vibes all around, and a very chill atmosphere where you can actually hear one another. Every signature cocktail we tried was a jaw dropping type of good. So impeccably balanced even with the stronger spirits present. What they do here is meticulous in craftsmanship and incredibly precise in inception… The price here is a bit steeper than neighboring cocktails but frankly this is as good as it gets when it comes to creative cocktails at a reasonable price range. I really recommend you pay the extra few bucks here the quality is amazing! We absolutely loved our drinks and will be back many times for more!

Nice restaurant that came highly recommended. Buzzing with patrons on a weeknight. On the noisy side (challenging to maintain a conversation due to surrounding noise). Friendly and attentive service. Tasty cocktails and well crafted menu. • The beet salad was fresh and delicious. The signature fried chicken was tasty, moist and crispy. The house hot sauce bucket was a nice touch. • The low point of our meal was the squash gnudi. Although the actually gnudi were light and soft the contrast of the chunky pieces of squash and the richness of caramelized overpowered the dish. • We would definitely return and sample other choices on the menu.

We were on our way elsewhere last night but paused at their cosy outdoor patio— great jazzy music and nice flame heaters and umbrellas up to keep the drizzle off. We fully enjoyed every sip of our well-thought out cocktails, and every bite of our food. The service was friendly and knowledgeable. Four fantastic different seating areas all with an intimate classy vibe. The interior courtyard looked amazing. Recommend for a date, or any intimate gathering

Took my beautiful wife here for a late night, date night Sunday dinner. Very cool location in Bastion Square right off Langley. The hostest took us inside, just down some stairs and what seemed to be a maze of different dining areas. Very cool. The wait staff was immediately amazing, explaining that the menu is served in a family style of shareable plates, which appealed to both of us very much. Everything that we had ordered seemed to be more amazing than the last plate. The place definitely has a very romantic feeling and a great place for great food, great company, and a great date night experience. This may be my new favorite place for date night in Victoria. Thanks.

This place is a new favorite of mine. My wife and I went for our anniversary dinner and decided on the tasting menu with the cocktail pairing. Every dish (with the exception of the pork dish) was complex and flavorful, and the cocktail pairings were fantastic and really complemented each dish. My personal favorite dish was the salmon dish. The Laundry and Taxes cocktail was fantastic, and the kelp salt on my margarita blew my mind. The service was responsive but not overly intrusive, and the atmosphere was quite nice in the backyard patio. I would definitely return next time I’m in Victoria, and will be recommending to my friends and family.
