The West Coast Grill offers the only elegant dining room in Sooke. Outdoor seating on the patio affords wonderful views of the water and the marina. Prices are mostly fair given the appointment of the dining room, but the restaurant often falls short in other...respects. This year we ate one breakfast and two dinners there. Breakfast of Eggs Benedict was great, and the service was delightful. Unfortunately, the two dinners left us disappointed to a degree that we probably won’t return. First of all the noise both inside and outside on the patio resembled that of a sports bar. Not the stuff of fine dining, but only to be expected from an establishment that styles itself as a family restaurant. The menu is not very broad. One night we wanted a light meal and a dessert. We chose a dish of clams and mussels, which was significantly overpriced for the amount of food, and the Stick in the Mud dessert fell short of what we remembered from the year before.More

First off I have to say the staff of this restaurant are amazing. They are soo nice and helpful with recommendations and suggestions with the menu. Shout out to the server Stephaney who made the BEST drinks (especially her Shaft omg just ask for her’s...specifically), talked us through the menu when we noted a food allergy, and was attentive any time we needed something! The food here is amazing and since we live in Sooke this is our go to spot anytime we have a special occasion or want to impress guests from out of town… and whenever we’re craving their seafood steamer pot and garlic bread lolMore

Excellent service (Sasha) and top notch food!! That’s on top of the perfect location!! A must for any visit to Sooke!!

We wanted a traditional breakfast and were delightful pleased with the selection, plus they were very attentive to my food allergies. Even though they were painting the outside of the place, the service and attention to details exceeded our expectations.

Fantastic spot for food, drinks and good company! Wonderful service, great ambience, would highly recommend!!

The perfect spot to dine with friends and family. Always consistent and the service is amazing, can’t recommend enough!

We had the west coast grill cater our wedding and all the food was absolutely amazing, all the staff was very friendly and efficient and the teppanyaki was a huge hit!

We have eaten at West Coast Grill many times before, but the last few times the quality and consistency just wasn't there. Most recently, few days ago, complete disappointment. A shared bucket of clams and muscles for $33 where you needed a magnifying glass to...find any clams and literally probably between the two of us had maybe 5 shellfish each, also came with 1 piece of garlic toast...not sure why call it a shared appy ... bit odd if you have two people that don't really know each other as much cutting up 1 piece of bread. Duck wings were a decent value, chicken sandwich was ok but nothing special. Had cheesecake for desert, $12 and again a very very small portion. I will not be back, until I see that there is a value and quality under those prices. Very disappointing, also not super friendly staff, try smiling once in a while.More

Restaurant is located in nice looking hotel (we didn't stay here, but looked really posh) overlooking the water. Interior of the restaurant matched the hotel, but unfortunately the food didn't measure up . The share bucket of steamed seafood was undersized for a share bucket,...steak dinner was certainly not worth the price paid. But the wine was goodMore

My husband and I were staying at the hotel where the West Coast Grill is located so we thought we would have dinner at the restaurant. So happy we did. From the moment you walked into the restaurant you were made to feel welcomed. Our...server Janina was fantastic from her lovely smile to how she interacted with us. My husband had the steak which he very much enjoyed and I had the Asparagus & Arugula Chicken Cesare Salad. It was so delicious. For dessert, I had the chocolate and donuts and hubby had the Bread Pudding, again fantastic. The atmosphere is lovely we ate on the deck and it was so beautiful. I would recommend this place and I look forward to returning again.More

Been a year or so since I have at West Coast Grill in Sooke. Picked up my Granddaughter for Lunch today and asked where she wanted to go…she said let’s go to the West Coast Grill as she likes their Chicken and Fires which she...ordered WTH she is 14 and still working on her Palate I ordered the Wild Mushroom Bisque and the Tuna Club Sandwich with Salad. The Bisque was very tasty and recommended just wish they would put 2-3 more ounces in the Bowl for that price. The Tuna Club Sandwich was Outstanding and I highly recommend it if you pop in for Lunch. Such a great setting beside the water, staff are friendly and prices are well the prices are what they are our bill was Approx $80.00 we both had Ice Tea and split the Layered Cheesecake which wasn’t too sweet and was a nice finish to the meal. We will be back, Buffa & GusMore

3-6pm is the happy hour; you get $5 off the shared plates and select drinks (see happy hour drink menu in pictures). The view of the harbour is fabulous, ocean hills and mountains! The service staff are friendly, professional and attentive. The facility is clean...and respects covid protocols. We enjoyed some appetizers and drinks - really great way to spend an afternoon! The three cheese dip and truffle fries are recommended!More
