   We always enjoy Earl’s. It’s in a great location, very convenient to all the amenities of downtown Victoria. Great ambience, nice staff and fabulous food. I loved my steak!!!! Thanks.

   I had lunch at Earls today with my friend. A few times we mentioned how good the service was. It started off with a young man named Maguire that seated us, made sure we were happy with the table he gave us, and explained the menu to us. Our server was very friendly and attentive. Food was ready quickly and we both were very happy with our meals. Drinks from the bar were very tasty and nicely presented. Great dining experience from beginning to end.

   Earls has a great atmosphere, the lighting is good and the noise/music level is low so you can have conversations with the people at your table and hear the staff! We were treated very well and since we were celebrating a birthday, there were deserts for the table at the end. It was very lovely! Heather took excellent care of us. thanks!

   We had a very good waiter but he was completely overwhelmed with back to back large groups of around 24 guests each plus other tables in his section. As a result we and other guests were neglected for long periods and had to wait too long to receive drinks and our meals. He mistimed our order and the entrees were ready before having received our appetizers although he blamed the kitchen staff for this. My steak came blue rare and was extremely tough after having ordered medium rare. The others at our table were finished their meals including another poor quality steak before the waiter had time to do a quality check. I sent my entree back and the manager quickly apologized and offered me a complimentary appetizer so I could eat something quickly. It’s not fair for customers paying expensive menu prices to be neglected and have their dining experience ruined when a restaurant manager expects their servers to look after far too many customers at one time especially when large groups are involved. I’ll be more aware in the future to avoid this situation again as it’s such a waste of time and money.

   My family came in for dinner and had a lovely night! The food was delicious and it was a busy night! They were glad to have made a reservation.

   Everything what we wanted were sold out. The waitress didn’t even let us know in advance until we order them. We had to go over menu again for substitute dishes. Chicken tender , chicken wing , salmon aburi and cheese cake were sold out. It’s too many ! The restaurant wasn’t even busy at all. Disappointed.

    They were so awesome! We mentioned it was a birthday and they went above and beyond for the birthday girl. The food was taking long but the night manager personally came over to check on us and apologize for the delay. A great experience all over.
