The Collective Wine Kitchen - Victoria

One of our Faves! It was hard for the restaurant industry as a whole, but these guys did it. The new terrace is amazing and the food and wine list is one of the best in the city! There are flights (of wine) and a small, focused menu. I love Steak Frites with the mixed butter! They often make wine events and tasting (while not kovid times) that we always enjoy. Overall you do not recommend going wrong here for a date night out. Edit (summer 2022): as great as ever!! Incredible ambience, service and food! Continue to recommend!

Happy Hour after work is a great way to relax after a busy day! Our server, soon to be sommelier, was beautiful and enjoys sharing their thoughts and knowledge – very happy with their selection of wine for our flight.

Unbelievable time! The food was delicious (especially the watermelon cucumber salad, like summer on a plate! Our server Mary was beautiful and attentive. Overall excellent experience and definitely plan to return.

I took my husband here for a birthday dinner and wasn't disappointed. The ambience and food was really good. If you are looking for a nice date night spot, I would recommend 100%. We had the watermelon salad, mussels and a wooden board. It was really nice. I have seen a few comments here about slow service, etc. and my answer is: This is not a brown social house. This is an independent company that has probably been hit hard. In addition, servers are just super-worked and I think everyone is trying their absolute best. Was completely satisfied with our service and while the food took some time, it was not out of line and was worth more than waiting. The service we received was friendly and helpful.

We had the most lovely evening at this restaurant. We were celebrating a birthday and an anniversary at the same time and all of the staff we came in contact with congratulated us and wished us well as we were celebrating which was very impressive. We ordered the BC wine flight and the Rose flight and really enjoyed the different tastes we experienced. We ordered the charcuterie board which was very fun to play around with the different tastes. We also ordered the orange creamsicle sorbet which was AMAZING. The server we had was also amazing (I’m sorry I don’t remember her name) and super informative about the menu items. One of our favourite date spots and will definitely become an annual visit.
