SoBo Restaurant

Overall impression of this place is good. We tried 6 of their dishes during lunch and my favourite item was the salmon chowder. Served hot and smokey. The crispy polenta fries are such a treat. I was expecting more leafy greens in the soba noodle salad, but it is a bit heavier on the carb side. Other dishes were ok.

We wound up here by local recommendation. It was their first day of the season. Amazing everything! Highly recommend Do try the seafood chowder, and don't forget a slice of key lime pie to finish off the meal.

The restaurant looks really good and when you enter you see the pastries and their own cooking book. Can’t go wrong you think. But the food is a disappointment. The octopus was overcooked and the sauce made it unbalanced. The salmon was to raw and tasted somewhat fishy. Service was okay but not adequate when I told them about the salmon dish. The local beer was good. I found the place overpriced. Unfortunately not a great experience after all.

Excellent food! Everything seems to be made from scratch - from the falafels to the wraps to the seafood chowder. And they serve real whipped cream on the tasty key lime pie. Fish tacos were some of the best I’ve ever had. Will definitely come back to this family owned place that’s putting so much love into their food!

The only place that opens during the afternoon. There was a bit of a wait but wow, the food is amazingly delicious. Ordered a dozen Pacific oysters, which were delicious. The seafood chowder was absolutely delicious. Nice friendly staff and service was excellent.

We had an awesome time and great food. The mushroom pizza is to die for! The oysters were good but need to be eaten while hot. Very nice decor and interesting artwork. Great for bringing the kids. And the cutlery is magnetized so the kids can play with those At the table.

A great place for lunch or dinner! We had the Manila clams x 2 and the margherita pizza with a starter of polenta fries. All was delicious. Know that the polenta fries are quite filling so one per person is lots (if also eating mains) tho it seems like it wouldn’t be. Our clams had a bit of sand in them but that happens. The bread with them was excellent with salt flakes on top. Perfect for dipping in the clam broth. We finished up with a slice of key lime pie which is not to be missed!

We came to visit Tofino/Ucluelet from Vancouver. After doing a bit research, we decided to come to SoBo for lunch. This place is simply amazing. The staffs are ultra friendly and knowledgeable. Their food is fresh and delicious. Price is also very reasonable. We had tofu pocket with smoked salmon, fish chowder, broiled oyster, fried oysters, and their daily special - wild mushroom linguini. Every dish is so good that I so want to just come back for dinner again. These guys really know their food. 👍👍👍
