The menu is imaginative and varied, with a very good choice of fish and meat dishes - not too large, not too small. It's not inexpensive but the food was worth it (which is why we ate there twice) and we ordered different dishes each visit. Service was very good friendly and efficient. We sat both inside and outside - the outdoor deck is fun for the view. Highly recommended (especially the chowder and the local Tofino beer!).
