    - charming atmosphere, cozy and funky at once -- I was initially a little off-put, but the charm just poured off of this place
    - amazing menu with lots of selection for persons with dietary limitations (I have none, but guests of mine did)
    - terrific hosts and knowledgeable staff - our questions were answered brilliantly...customer service in this venue is top notch
    - a bit of a hike from town, but well worth it - take a designated driver and enjoy your glass of wine
    - odd bathroom location is my only negative observation...but they're working well with what they've got there, so I won't complain

    Wonderful evening, sophisticated menu, excellent food ....  and superb service (especially , if Jennifer is your waitress).  
    There was a bit of a miscommunication among our friends, so we arrived 1/2 an hour earlier than we were supposed to.  Jennifer didn't bat an eye, just sat us down and served drinks, appetizers and bread as if there was no problem whatsoever.
     Eventually we were a party of 10 and everybody got their food sizzling hot, and everybody was happy with their choice.

    We were headed back from Victoria to take the ferry from Swartz Bay back to Vancouver and we decided we wanted to check out the Butchart Gardens and the Butterfly Gardens. We were blown away at how expensive the Butchart Gardens were, so we skipped that and instead enjoyed the butterflies. When we were done, we were ready for lunch and asked for a recommendation for someplace between the Butterfly Gardens and the ferry. The nice girl at the counter immediately directed us to Zanzibar.

    Zanzibar was wholly unexpected, but in a good way. We came there not expecting much, but the menu had lots of great, tasty-sounding options and was reasonably priced (for Victoria, anyway). And, best of all, the actual food we ordered tasted great.

    If you are heading to the ferries or just find yourself in the area, this place is worth the detour.

    Situated on the edge of the village, in a beautiful spot surrounded by gardens, Zanzibar is conveniently located en route to the ferries, Butchart Gardens and the Airport. Chef Mohamed Dehairi has found the ideal location to continue to serve locals and visitors the superb fare that made Quattro Stagione an institution on the Peninsula. Zanzibar preserves the taste and value clients have come to expect, with some refreshing changes and seasonal lunch and dinner menus.

    There were 6 of us there for lunch and we all had something different and each one was perfection.  Will we go back there again?  You bet your boots
    and by the way our server Rowen was top notch

    Almost feels like eating at camp only the food is worlds better. Among the top restaurants in Brentwood Bay now that Bistro Cache is no more. Always busy at lunch so get there early.
