Classic French bistro out in Victoria. They don't take reservations which works out perfectly for someone like me who makes dinner plans last minute!
Food was delicious, and the wait staff had great wine recommendations for us. Would highly recommend the Ratatouille and the liver pâté
The staff is great! Very attentive even if not their table. No reservations, so be aware of the seating policy and plan accordingly. It is worth the uncertainty! The chocolate cake was so good I took a photo after the first bite so I can look back on it wistfully.
What a wonderful place, and people were right - you can't have a bad meal.
The restaurant is small with just a dozen or so tables, not crammed together. The ambience is dark with sun coming through the front window and background music that is really low so everybody can talk.

This place offers very solid bistro dining in Victoria:
* You likely know that they do not take reservations
* We showed up on a Friday night just after 8:00 PM & were warmly greeted by the owner/manager. Within 5 minutes he had us comfortably seated.
* Tables are well spaced apart. They could easi
The trout was delightful and I would recommend the truffle oil frites which were also delicious! The restaurant had a lovely ambience and the staff were friendly and prompt.
Got lucky that there happened to be a table and didn’t have to wait. French onion soup was great for the cold rainy weather out. The duck with Roquefort sauce was a nice combination of flavours, and burger with truffle fries was tasty as well. Restaurant interior was cosy, a lovely place to dine for
Loved it here, and will for sure be back. Unique and lovely spot. Not a fan of the need to line up to get in - if they allowed reservations, I would come much more often. Loved the fist I had one night, and the duck. However, have had much better steak for way less money at other places. The steak I
We decided to finally try Brasserie L'Ecole on our anniversary for nice French dinner. 30 minutes waiting out in the cold was not so fun but we heard that's how you get a table so we dressed warm at least. We were seated right away and our server was polite and friendly while answering our questions
Outstanding!! My friend took me about a month ago and we had the best night. I am French and was dubious as to what the quality of the food would be, but honestly all I can say is DÉLICIEUX! Starters, main courses (moules frites are sublime), dessert, bread, drinks - all of it was absolutely excelle
This very special French Restaurant operates on a first arrive,first basis so we arrived 30 minutes early and there were several enthusiastic customers already lined up…the discussion among those waiting was enthusiastic about what each individual was interested in ordering..the staff made regular v
Fantastic wine selection, menu was creative without being inventive. The house made charcuterie was exemplary and the ratatouille was divine; both exploding with flavor and expertly prepared. Our meal here was quite memorable, I recommend them enthusiastically.
Gorgeous local ingredients prepared perfectly. Hearty, comforting dishes served with straightforward style and creativity. Paleron of beef was fork tender, potato puree silky, delicata squash tender. Vauclavan sausage and apples were perfect pairing. Crispy pork belly was luscious. Citrusy, floral l
Absolutely loved my experience there. Staff was on point and food was fantastic.
We waited at 5 and were able to be seated when it opened at 530 on a Saturday. I think we may have been one of the last groups in line that made it in immediately.
I had the burger, olives, asparagus brioche and for drink the Vieux Mot. It was delicious. All of it. One of the best burgers I’ve ever
Incredible experience!! We went in on a Wednesday night and missed the infamous queues. The waitress was wonderful, attentive and helpful! She stopped us from over ordering and made some great recommendations so we could still try the things we wanted. The food was DELICIOUS! The French onion soup w
I had the steak & my friend had the halibut. Both were extraordinary. The service is both professional & friendly. The prices are very reasonable and especially for this quality. This place is great!!
A hidden gem with a rotating menu. Some of the best steak I've had in town, hands down. Also, some may view it as an after-thought, but even their French fries were terrific!
