Stopped on a whim to have dinner at Zougla's as we'd just missed the ferry, and had noticed the round restaurant on the hill as we were driving down to the ferry terminal. We were welcomed in the most friendly manner, shown to a table with a lovely view of the bay. Our server was one of the friendliest, happy... More

Weve eaten here with large groups in the past and assumed the service was slow due to the size of our party. No, it really has issues with service. 40 minutes for appys is ridiculous. The another 45 for entrees. (I think they make profit of the booze they push) the lamb is good, the rest could use some seasoning.... More

Easy to find next to the highway. Tasty food, fairly slow service and quite bland decor. Nice and clean. Slightly strange atmosphere.

We have eaten here a couple of times now (Chicken Pacific is really good!). This restaurant has been owned by the same family for a long time. The views from the windows look over Departure Bay in the distance. The staff here are very knowledgeable and attentive to your needs and desires. Great place for a celebration or just a... More

I meet up with a friend for lunch here every other month and my husband and I like to dine here periodically. The food is very nicely prepared and presented, although the menu could use an update. Despite this, I always enjoy my meals here. The lamb souvlaki is excellent and so is the prawn souvlaki. Yes, the decor is... More

We have been to this restaurant twice now and each time the food has been top-notch, fresh and flavourful, and the service is excellent and professional. While the prices are not cheap, they are reasonable for the quality of food you are receiving. This restaurant is an excellent place for a special occasion but also for just a nice dinner... More

We dine here a few times each year. The atmosphere is perfect for a relaxed '80's style romantic evening. The service is pleasant and efficient. The food is quite tasty and worth the prices charged. I do wish they would change up the menu and add saganaki.

I come to zouglas for their steak cause its the best in town. And the wife likes her chicken dish. But the menu is dated and needs a change. The decore is upper class but customers in baseball caps and tee shirts says its not. I was not that happy with my appetizer and service was not very attentive at... More
