    My husband and I have been to Alpina many time in the last few years and have always enjoyed a fine dining experience and made to feel special . This time we were informed almost as soon as we ordered our drinks there was a large party coming in shortly and it might be advisable to order in a timely manner as service could be slower . The waitress was lovely but it still made the four of us feel rather rushed . The wine prices were very high and more limited .. most $115-117/bottle which also was disappointing to see such a huge markup . Food was good but not as before, my lamb sausage /pasta was just warm , everyone else enjoyed their dinners for the most part but we all left feeling it was but the best experience .. we had raved to our European relatives(first time in Canada) that hands down this was our favourite most special restaurant to go to for an exceptional dining experience anywhere up and down Vancouver Island . Not anymore

    We had a lovely experience celebrating a special occasion here. The food was absolutely delicious — every bite was worth savoring. The stunning views added to the overall ambiance, making the evening even more memorable. Yes, the prices are on the higher side, but the quality and service truly reflected that. What made it extra special? The complimentary truffles for both our birthday and anniversary — such a sweet and thoughtful touch! Highly recommend for those looking to treat themselves or celebrate something meaningful.

    Even after 1 hr after ordering, we did not receive our food. While tables who ordered after us received their food. Which was inconsistent with the chefs statement that all food orders take nearly an hour. No restaurant has ever taken an hour after ordering to deliver food
    Alpina Restaurant at Villa Eyrie ResortResponded on June 7, 2025
    Andrew, thank you for sharing your experience with us. We're truly sorry to hear about the long wait you encountered and understand how frustrating that must have been — especially when others around you were served sooner. This is certainly not the standard we aim to uphold, and we deeply regret the inconsistency and inconvenience. We’re taking your feedback seriously and will be reviewing this situation with our kitchen and service teams to ensure it doesn’t happen again. We appreciate you bringing this to our attention and hope you might consider giving us another opportunity to provide the level of service we’re known for. Sincerely, The Alpina Team

    5/5 all around!! We all really enjoyed our brunch entrees (huevos rancheros, lemon glazed blueberry french toast, Nutella crepes… the only thing is we wished the Nutella crepes were served warm but unfortunately, they were served cold. Other than that, everything was perfect. They even gave us 3 complimentary glasses of champagne to celebrate my birthday!
    Alpina Restaurant at Villa Eyrie ResortResponded on June 7, 2025
    Carol, thank you so much for your fantastic review! We're thrilled to hear you enjoyed your brunch and that the birthday celebration felt special — cheers to another wonderful year! 🎉 We truly appreciate your feedback about the Nutella crepes and will be sure to share it with our kitchen team to help improve the experience even further. It was our pleasure to toast your birthday with a little bubbly, and we hope to welcome you back again soon! Warmest wishes, The Alpina Team
