Pluvio restaurant and rooms

What an experience. Every course was spectacular. The flavors, the ingredients, the presentation were flawless. One of the best meals my husband and I have eaten. The waffle with cheese and truffle and quince was literally life changing. I have never tasted something like this before. We booked already a reservation for tomorrow night as we need to take advantage of every opportunity to dine in this restaurant. PS the service was also perfect.

Had the best dinner of my life at Pluvio! Accommodating of my gluten allergy - so much was gluten free naturally so I didn’t feel like I missing out. Service was exceptional, food was incredible, and the zero proof wine pairing rounded out the five star experience.

Travelling and experiencing a variety of foods in a variety of settings is something my partner and I frequently enjoy doing. The food and the service at Pluvio rank at the top of anywhere we've been before, including Michelin-starred and Michelin-reommended restaurants. Every bite was beautiful and exceptional. We were seated at the bar, which appeared to be for special guests (it was my 40th birthday celebration) and allowed us full view into the small but highly efficient kitchen, including having one of the friendly, knowledgeable chefs explain what was happening in the kitchen and answer any of our questions. We are not from this area but absolutely plan to return to Pluvio, as this ranks as one of the best food experiences we've ever had.

Just wonderful, my wife and I don't normally splurge on food like this but it was totally worth it for a treat. Each dish was well balanced and just worked so well together, I wish I had taken a photo of the menu to remind myself of what we had though. The cocktails we had were also amazing. All in all a great experience.

One of the best meals I've ever had! IMHO if Michelin was on Vancouver island, this restaurant would get 2 stars. The service was excellent, with staff remembering our names, folding napkins when we went to the restroom, and overall being very attentive and friendly. There were also some other personal touches that showed that they went out of their way to create an excellent guest experience The food was also excellent in presentation, creativity, and taste! All the ingredients were excellent and there were unique combinations that were very tasty. There was no dish that I felt missed the mark, just a few that didn't quite blow me away like everything else.

We had an incredible dinner at Pluvio last weekend and cannot rave enough about it! Having heard good things, we were excited to try and it and were so impressed with the service, quality of food, and overall attention to detail. Every dish was delicious and we love that Pluvio sources ingredients locally and their menu reflects that. The cocktails were great and the staff were knowledgeable and friendly. We will definitely be back!

Love this place. The food is imaginative and delectable. Most ingredients are sourced from the island. The staff are attentive and lovely. They made my partner's meal celiac friendly. Highly recommend. And thank you Pluvio for an amazing evening!

Loved eating here- each course delicious and thoughtful. We're not big foodies but this was great fun and service. The hum dog was unique and excellent. Salmon and pork courses stood out as well. And the waffle thing and dessert. Would go back anytime out there on the coast.
