II Terrazzo

This is my favorite Italian restaurant in Victoria! I highly recommend making a reservation because it’s hard to get a table without one. I had the seafood pasta last time and loved it, so this time I tried the seafood stew—it had a nice kick and was super flavorful. The pizza was also great, with fresh, nutty cheese that stood out. The servers here are always professional and courteous, which makes every visit feel special. Definitely one of my go-to spots!

We had a great time except we were seated in the spot under a heater. Both my husband and i, were sweating already, and actually my head hurts from the heat. So, instead of staying and enjoying the food, even though i decided to order the dessert. I just Ordered it and asked for it for take out. As I cant handle the heat anymore. Ive gone with 3 glasses of water, and already full when my pasta was served, i cant finished it anymore. Except for all that, the Food was all great, and servers are attentive. The vibes i love too. We would like to come back, and maybe request to be seated somewhere else. Too bad, we were celebrating our anniversary too.

If you're heading to Victoria, don’t miss out on Il Terrazzo – but make sure you have a reservation, because this gem fills up fast! We hadn’t been in a while, and boy, did we forget how much we love this place. David, our awesome server, not only made us feel like regulars but also shared that every server here knows their wine list inside and out. Thanks to his recommendation, we paired the perfect wine with our meal, making it an unforgettable experience. The food? Simply mind-blowing. Each dish was a masterpiece, and the wine list? Second to none on the island. This place just checks all the boxes – can’t wait to come back (and this time, more often)!

This is for sure of the best Italian restaurants I've been to in Canada. The service was top notch and everything we ordered was amazing. I was surprised by the heavier price tag on the Spaghetti Carbonara at first but I do not regret ordering this dish in the slightest, the pasta was perfect. The pizza was no disappointment either, the cheese tasted extremely high quality and left me craving for more. Will come back here in a heartbeat.

What a wonderful experience! My husband and I went here for our 2nd wedding anniversary, and we loved it!! Everything was perfect. The ambiance, food, service, and atmosphere were 10/10. My husband is not a fan of pasta, but he said this was hands down the best pasta he's ever had and wants to go again?!! That says a lot.. Our server was sweet enough to give us 2 truffle chocolates at the end of our night just cause we completed 2 years together, even though it was something tiny. It was the thought and gesture that counted and made our night ❤️

The rumors are true—this place is a must-try in Victoria! You really get what you pay for. The service was good, the ambiance is beautiful, and the portion sizes of food were just right for sharing. We ordered everything to share, and the appetizer was incredible. While I wasn’t the biggest fan of their carbonara due to a smoky, burnt aftertaste, the rest of the meal was fantastic. Overall, a great dining experience and worth the visit!

This hidden gem is tucked away in a back alley. If you can, make a reservation. The food is exquisite, the atmosphere is quaint, and the servers are efficient and friendly. The owner is always around, which adds to the charm. We went twice just to confirm our first impressions. PS Fabulous wine list and desserts if you have space.

Beautiful place! Highly recommend if you are craving high quality food and excellent service. I wish I would’ve remembered to take more pictures of the plates ordered but we were hungry and started right when the food got to the table. The stake with spaghetti was absolutely delicious! My husband is very picky and love a classic plate so he did the peppercorn sauce on the side, it was amazing and he ended up pouring it right on top. For kids, they do not have a kids menu but provided the perfect option for my girls to share, a stake with buttered spaghetti and it was a perfect portion for each. For myself, I had the Caprese salad which was also very delicious. For dessert I had to order the tiramisu which was extremely flavorful. The ambience is warm, elegant, cozy and very welcoming. It is high on cost but it is worth it.
