“ Best gluten-free fish & chips we've ever had! Freshest fish, fresh cut fries, do yourself a favour and try this place if you're GF! Or even if you're not as my husband throughly enjoyed it too. :) ”
“ Staff were really helpful in working to help me find good ingredients within my budget. Everything was fresh and delicious and I'll be coming back to try their in-house food. Photo is of a paella made with shrimp, rice, prawns, and mussels from Oak Bay Seafood. ”
“ The food is absolutely great. Love the seafood chowder. The Tuesday and Thursday taco's are huge. Loved the fresh spot prawns. Waited a long time for them. We will be back to try other menu items. ”
“ I had to go GF a little over a year ago, so it’s still recent - and Oak Bay seafood’s fish and chips are the BEST battered fish & chips in the city. So light and crispy...they just also magically happen to be gluten free. A real gem! ”
“ Who knew gluten free batter would be so good! Light, crispy, not greasy, cooked perfectly and soooo melt-in-your-mouth! I only ordered the 1-piece ling cod meal and wish I had ordered a 2nd piece. There are enough fries for 2 meals! And the fish was moist and delicate tasting, and the tartar sauce creamy and delicious. Definitely going back again! ”
“ Gluten-free goodness in Victoria BC. Checkout @oakbay.seafood for a great place to not only pick up some fresh seafood but also a large variety of gluten-free food in the restaurant side od the store! Fish and chips. Fried calamari. Popcorn shrimp. Fried oysters......and so many other choices! They use a chickpea and rice flour batter to coat the fish. Such a great treat - eat in or take out and go sit by the ocean! ”
“ One of the best places to enjoy GLUTEN FREE everything! The menu has so many great options to cater to gluten free needs without compromising on flavour and texture. We thoroughly enjoyed the variety of food and feasted on some delicious crab as well. In addition to great menu items, there’s also a wonderful selection of pantry foods and house made products you can purchase (soups, pickles and frozen seafood items). The only downside is they close at 7pm, so you need to plan for lunch or an earlier dinner. There are limited tables and the ambience isn’t anything fancy. Overall, great value and amazing seafood options. Friendly staff and great food! Worth a stop if you are in Oak Bay. ”
“ The fish and chips are always fantastic. Perfect amount of batter and the fries are hot and seasoned well. The shinning star is the fish stew. Full of seafood and also perfectly seasoned. Yummy! ”
