    My husband and I came to Vista 18 with our two friends for brunch today. The views are AMAZING, the service was welcoming, friendly and helpful, and the food was delicious. The music being played was relaxing and pleasant. Overall, this was a lovely dining experience. Thank you to Vista 18 kitchen and serving staff, and anyone else involved in making Vista 18 a truly special place to enjoy a meal!

    The breakfast was really good. I had eggs Benny with a recipe I’d never had before! Our waitress knew just when to show up and asked just the right questions. I loved the private little booth we hand and of course the view is lovely.

    I took my 94 year old mother for dinner. Our server, Scott, was very charming and attentive, taking special care of my mother. The view is incredible! I can’t believe I have never dined here in all my years of living in Victoria! As an interior designer, I was itching to give the place a “refresh” however!

    Our server, Scott, gave us a great recommendation for a wine. The food was fantastic, and so was the service, not to mention that incredible view.
