We decided to give Shine a try during the week, since the weekends are usually lined up (as with most brunch places). Got a table right away, although they filled up quickly. Service was excellent, quick to refill water and coffee and checked on how we liked our food. Not a fancy place, but clean and comfortable. I had the special, a Reuben Benny which was really delicious. My wife had a breakfast plate. The potatoes were great, as long as you like rosemary. I would definitely recommend.
Love, love this restaurant. Every time I'm in Victoria, I always make a point to visit here.
Today I got the Southern Belle Benny and as you can see by the picture it seems a little strange. Let me reassure you, this is one of the best bennies I have ever eaten. Omg all the ingredients got so well together and there is a huge flavour profile here. The only thing I'm disappointed in is that I ordered the half portion and not the full.
Had about a five minute wait at 1230pm on a Saturday. Very friendly service. Food was hot and tasty. Crispy jalapenos were delicious. Lots of empty tables at 115pm when leaving. Usually there is a lineup outside between 9am-12pm.
We heard great things about this place. My first time coming here, my hubby was here last 10 years ago. Cute breakfast place with delicious food. I had the chorizo hash with soup on the side. Great flavours, very filling and excellent service to match. Highly recommend it.
Huge portions! This place is friendly to vegetarians: there’s lots of veggie options on the menu, plus you can replace meat with avocado for non-veggie meals.
Great brunch spot in Victoria. Quality food with okay service.
Fair price.
Great eggs benny and vegan options. Short wait but it was worth it. Found this spot thanks to google and it did not disappoint, the Cali Benny was amazing!
Definitely recommend checking out for their assortment of eggs benedict. I had the garden city eggs benny and enoyd it a lot! The basil pesto hollandaise sauce was delicious and the eggs were perfectly poached. Staff were friendly and quick taking orders, bring drinks and food.
We enjoyed it thoroughly. Vegan and non vegan alike.
The service was quick and there servers were very nice.
Highly recommend
Service was great and so was the food! We went for 10:00 and luckily there was no line. Because this place is so popular, sometimes there can be a bit of a wait. My wife got the Nemo Benny with hash browns. Both were tasty. Another friend of ours got the apple cinnamon pancakes, which was perfect was someone with a sweet tooth. I would definitely recommend this place.
