Reviews for The Hallway in Victoria, BC
Hmm where do I start. Do I start with the poor quality beef tartare loaded with spices to hide the quality of the meat.. or the... flash frozen fish they serve? The presentation of the food is beautiful but the quality and taste is quite average.. I’msorry! I had high expectations and was quite disappointed. Also, please change your music playlist.. this isn’t Omnia inVegas.. it felt like a cocktail lounge with intense music… not so much a dinner vibe. The service however was incredible,super nice server! Read more
Lovely experience. Excellent service. Beautiful and unique drinks (although pricey). The food was very good, but I wouldn’t... suggest the kale Caesar salad, as it was too salty (this is coming from a person who enjoys salt). Modern and artsy. We’ll beback :) Read more
Out of this world. By far one of the best restaurants in Victoria for good food, drinks and dining experience. We had the... sweetest server who was kind and attentive. I loved the ambiance and the fancy cocktails. You must order a Moon over Mexico anda Honey Badger. My favourite dishes were the beef and broccoli, grilled humboldt squid and confit chicken gnocchi. The fermentedbread to start is a must. The evening was so great that we returned the following weekend to host a friend’s birthday with alarge group which the restaurant kindly accommodated. I love that the owners are out on the floor participating in service andensuring guests are well taken care of. I was also humbled by two young local owners bringing their creative vision to lifeduring a hell-on-earth pandemic with absolutely no compromise on quality despite the restrictions. I can’t say enough aboutthe Hallway from start to finish. I will definitely be back and recommending it to all my friends who appreciate good food anddrinks. Read more
Wow, wow, wow. Incredible, locally sourced and seasonal ingredients crafted into well-balanced, playful and beautiful dishes.... Comfortable, intimate atmosphere. Well-trained, knowledgeable, friendly staff. Perhaps the strongest cocktail program in thecity with simply transcendent cocktails crafted by a bar staff who can build layer upon layer if flavour.

We had a few tasty cocktails. The dill pickle fries were delicious. The duck with gnocchi and squash was very good. The lingcod... with Bok Choy in broth was amazing. It was about a 1.75 hour experience and well worth the wait and price. Highly recommend. Read more
Not much an ambiance, down to earth which I like. Staff very friendly that need training they are bunch of young kids. Wine menu... need work but they have a good selection of pricy cocktails. The most important is the food. Very decent food we loved ourselection. Will go back again. Read more
If you haven’t been to the Hallway before, RUN don’t walk. I’m honestly mad at myself that I didn’t come in sooner. I... love the concept of fine dining food in a fun and casual atmosphere without stiff and pretentious service. Our server wasamazing and the staff were very welcoming and attentive. We had the scallops and squid to start and they did not disappoint.They were cooked to perfection and the flavors blended harmoniously. The beef and broccoli was again cooked perfectly with thepotato pave were just little slices of heaven. We finished the dinner with the matcha and rhubarb dessert, the cake was sospongy and light and was a great way to end our dinner. Every cocktail we had were also delicious and there was something on thedrink list for everyone. Will definitely be back again! Read more
We asked for taster of beer, got it and told our server that it’s very sour, then we ordered another beer as she mentioned... that this beer is going to be less sour so got us 2 pints. But this beer was extremely sour, we told her this. She said ohhsorry but I think this is not that sour and it’s her favourite beer, even she got two kegs for her wedding. No offer was madeto replace these beers or whatever. We couldn’t even drink those beers but we still got charged for both full pints. I don’tmind paying for mine as I drank half of mine but my wife just had a sip from pint. Never suggesting anyone to go there or wenever going back so disappointed…… Read more
