Relationships are forged over food at OLO - whether its friends and family enjoying a boat-to-table brunch or Executive Chef & Owner Brad Holmes finding farm-fresh ingredients from hard-working neighbours. Delicious food, laughter and good conversation are always on the menu. 'Olo' means 'hungry' in Chinook Jargon, a derivative language of English, French, Chinese and Chinook, and just like the Pacific Northwest was once a gathering place for traders, OLO is where the community comes together when hungry for more than just a meal. Serving up fresh local produce, Chef Brad is part of the Slow Food Chefs Alliance and switches up the sustainable menus depending on what's coming through the kitchen doors every day. Each dish celebrates life in B.C., using only the best ingredients available and working with amazing farmers, fishermen and foragers to provide an experience that captures the essence of Vancouver Island. Handcrafted seasonal cocktails showcase the best of Vancouver Island products and the bar program highlights the region's bounties with an impressive selection of B.C. distilleries, breweries and rare Canadian whiskeys. The thoughtfully curated wine list focuses on small-batch producers that showcase the Okanagan and Vancouver Island's best wineries, alongside premium international selections.

Imaginative but comfortable dishes. The three course was almost too much food for us, but the wine pairings were nice. Our waitress's recommendations were reliably excellent, especially the quince pie dessert! Cozy, casual, friendly environment. Thanks OLO!

Probably the most expensive meal I have ever had (mainly due to the glasses of wine) but it was a food experience I won't regret. Honestly was delightful, going for the 3 course with wine pairings is a great way to experience the best of the menu. The staff were all very friendly, explaining the dishes and where they are sourced from and although I was there early on a week day so wasn't that busy, I was served very fast. If you want a treat, I recommend.

Top shelf dining experience. Food, service and atmosphere were terrific.
