What's not to like about Pag's? Lively place, great italian food, crowded, but oh so good! Worth the wait in line with a glass of wine!

By far the best italian food you will ever have! Place is crowded and always full which can be quite a drag, but If you can get yourself passed that you will love the meal. Trust me.

We spent a week in Victoria after our daughter was married in Tofino. We met up with our other daughter and her boyfriend for dinner at Pagliacci's, and ended up going back there twice yet before we left for home. The food is incredible. Do not go here if you are on a diet! There is lots of cheese, and... More

I have been going to Pag's since I was teenager (many moons ago) and it has always been my favorite! Crazy fun staff, amazing food (ravioli pardisio is my fav pasta), the best bread ever, and cheese cake to die for. There's almost laways a line up, the dining room is cramped & loud and it's always a great time!

The restaurant has a menu that indicates the care and reverance that the kitchen staff put into every meal. The decor suggests that the restaurant is a fan of anything theatre from opera to modern day stars. Often filled, stop by the restaurant as you wander the city and determine if you will be tempted by the lunch or dinner... More

We loved the food and decor but it is crowded and noisy, even on a week night. But the food is worth it.

The soups are all delicious especially theTuscan Bean. Today we had 1/2 orders of pasta which is lots for lunch as it comes with soup or salad(11.50) Tortellini with... More

Get here early if you want to be seated right away, its tiny and usually packed. If you do happen to have to wait a while, no matter as if youre over 19 you will probably be given an adult beverage while you wait in the foyer. The pasta here is fantastic and huge portions. We always just order the... More
