A quiet street corner hides this wonderful cosy venue for a first class breakfast - make sure you're hungry and get there as soon as it opens. We were able to sit outside in the cool morning sunshine and enjoyed pancakes and lattes with homemade...twists. So delicious!More

A warm welcome and a lovely ambience. Staff were excellent. If you are looking for deliciously nourishing food give it a go. We loved it. Tuna tartare, sesame, crackers , home made crackers, - very tasty. Cauliflower , cashew hollandaise, capers , almonds - great...flavours. Tomato salad, sourdough, goat cheese - yummy Shiitakes mushrooms & pepperoni - tasty but could have done with accompaniment. Fettuccine , peas, egg yolk - perfect homemade pasta .More

I have been here many times for lunch but this restaurant has recently started to serve dinner. Reservations are possible for dinner. The food is delicious, the service is excellent and friendly, prices reasonable and the setting is very comfortable. The restaurant is in what...looks like an old house, with unique but comfortable furniture. The plates are smallish and meant to be shared. We had 3 large plates and four small ones between the four of us, which was plenty. The ling cod, tuna tartare, shiitake mushrooms were delicious. Many vegetables. Highly recommended.More

Fantastic dinner at Nourish. Food was super fresh and ambiance is charming. Staff was super attentive as well. This place differentiates itself from the touristy restaurants that are in abundance in Victoria is so many ways but in particular, with quality, fresh food.

Fantastic meal in a lovely setting. Service was great. I enjoyed a fettuccine dish and my partner had an interesting plate of seared scallops, pork, and cauliflower. We shared a beautiful starter of tomatoes, fresh herbs, peppers, and goat cheese in a nice vinaigrette. For...dessert we shared a yogurt panacotta with rhubarb and strawberries. Light and satisfying. Everything was great. We’ll be back.More

Unfortunately Nourish seems to have swapped ownership and in return the quality of pretty much everything has diminished. The locally sourced greens, meals in general have decreased in quantity and quality. It's very sad as this used to be my favourite restaurant. Not sure if...I'll be returning.. sad.More

I was speaking in Victoria and took an extra day to just enjoy the city with my wife. Slept in and wanted something other than hotel food for breakfast or lunch and had driven by Nourish and were interested after checking it out online. We...are very happy that we did. In an old two story house, the entrance was very homey and we were greeted and seated by the window. The menu was really great. All items were vegetarian but all had options to add meat and other sources of protein as well. We had a cup of soup, a Tartine and Golden Benny and they were fresh, different but familiar. Loved the 'new' way they created food with fresh ingredients that were all healthy, whole food. Even their tea and coffee concoctions were inventive, tasty and delicious. The place also supports the community and you can take some of the food items away in larger portions to enjoy in your home. Really, really liked this placeMore

Farm-to-table. I had the half & half which is like no pancakes you have ever tried with beet whipped cream topping and eggs benedict made with cashew sauce. Get there early as this is a trendy busy location. Service was perfect.

NOURISH appeared in a Google search for organic meals. Yum yum:Hot Broth with creative ingredients that helped my body stave off a cold. A generous portion sized two Eggs Bennie over yams and kale was a perfect meal. And its delish & saucy leftovers came...with! I enjoyed an hour of journaling & reading while eating at a private downstairs table near a window. Conveniently located -- on the edge of Victoria's historical downtown---the 1888 heritage house's environment was charming, inviting and spacious. So lovely it will be a 'go-to eatery when I returned to Victoria.More

As a vegetarian, finding places to eat really good food had not been easy on our trip through Alberta and British Columbia. This place is a little gem. Very well hidden in a residential area in Victoria. Oh my goodness, what a find. They do...breakfast, brunch and lunch. We only found it as we had got talking to the lady in the pizza place on Fisherman's Wharf. I asked her if she knew anywhere that did vegetarian food. She recommended Nourish. She explained how to find it. I am so glad she did as we would never have found it on our own. On our first visit we had lunch. I had a lentil soup with poached eggs and greens on toast. My daughter had something quiet different. I am afraid I can't remember what it was. But she enjoyed it. I was so wrapped up in the meal that I had wondering how they got it to taste so good. That I didn't take any notice of what she was doing. We both enjoyed it so much that we went back the next day for breakfast. Breakfast was really good. We both had a half and half. I had poached egg on sourdough toast and an oat pancake. I had never had a pancake like this. It is totally different to what we get in the UK. It was absolutely delicious and very light with a blueberry cream topping. They serve really good coffee as well. The place itself is very bright and homely. It feels like you are in a friends home. The service is good and efficient, but not intrusive. Both of us really loved this place and especially the food. They catered for vegetarians as well as meat eaters. They also catered for people with allergies. Highly recommended. We just wished they were open in the evening.More

I'm sure they would with a bit of extra exchange in their pocket! You are better off exchanging your USA dollars into Canadian and get a fair exchange rate. Businesses tend to charge way more than fare exchange
