The cooks are great, esp. the breakfast and lunch. Nice atmosphere, but could use a bit of updating. The pad thai is my fav and the curry chicken. All your usual pub food plus more...always have great seafood dishes. http://www.restaurantthing.com/ca/bc/portalberni/restaurant.php?ID=16210 Wed, 04 Jun 2008 21:16:10 GMT <!-- Comment Information:User ID:70344 Food:9 Atmosphere:7 Service:7 Price:0 Overall:7 VisitAgain:N/C --><b></b><br />Great location.

Kind of slow. http://www.restaurantthing.com/ca/bc/portalberni/restaurant.php?ID=16209 Wed, 04 Jun 2008 21:16:08 GMT <!-- Comment Information:User ID:70342 Food:9 Atmosphere:9 Service:9 Price:0 Overall:7 VisitAgain:N/C --><b>What great seafood!!</b><br />We discovered Swale Rock Cafe on our way to Ucluelet in September of 2004. An additional bonus was the Annual Toy Run put on by the motorcyclists each year which we watched from the window seat that we had. What an awewome meal!! If you love seafood, this is the place to go!! We are going to the Island again this coming week and this is one place that is an absolute must on our itinerary!! http://www.restaurantthing.com/ca/bc/portalberni/restaurant.php?ID=16208 Wed, 04 Jun 2008 21:16:08 GMT Added a new restaurant Water's Edge Pub Style Bistro. http://www.restaurantthing.com/ca/bc/portalberni/restaurant.php?ID=16209 Wed, 04 Jun 2008 21:16:07 GMT <!-- Comment Information:User ID:70340 Food:9 Atmosphere:9 Service:9 Price:0 Overall:9 VisitAgain:N/C --><b>Swale Rock Lover</b><br />The chef was awesome, his name was Zach -- he was hot and an awesome waiter!

Menu was assorted and good home cooked entries. Not much can be said for the Mall in which resturant is located. We strongly recommend Solda's Resturant to everyone travelling through the Port Alberni area. http://www.restaurantthing.com/ca/bc/portalberni/restaurant.php?ID=16207 Wed, 04 Jun 2008 21:16:04 GMT Added a new restaurant Solda's Restaurant. http://www.restaurantthing.com/ca/bc/portalberni/restaurant.php?ID=16207 Wed, 04 Jun 2008 21:16:03 GMT Added a new restaurant Smitty's Pancake House. http://www.restaurantthing.com/ca/bc/portalberni/restaurant.php?ID=16206 Wed, 04 Jun 2008 21:16:03 GMT <!-- Comment Information:User ID:70337 Food:9 Atmosphere:9 Service:9 Price:0 Overall:9 VisitAgain:N/C --><b>A Good Tasting Solid Meal When I Needed One</b><br />I had the Western Skillet.

I headed off to my job and was ready to produce. http://www.restaurantthing.com/ca/bc/portalberni/restaurant.php?ID=16206 Wed, 04 Jun 2008 21:16:02 GMT <!-- Comment Information:User ID:70336 Food:9 Atmosphere:9 Service:9 Price:0 Overall:9 VisitAgain:N/C --><b>I know the Chinese Food Is great but I order the Clubhouse Sandwich an</b><br />I know the Pine Restaurant is noted for its Chinese Food Smorgasbord. When I am in the restaurant I see many customers happily noshing away on Chinese Food and they are enjoying it. When I go to the Pine Restaurant I order a clubhouse sandwich from the menu and have a coffee and work on my Daytimer. The waitress is fast and friendly. Very pleasant personality and always there with a refill. I find the Chefmoz ratings too limited so I will put my rating here for the Pine Restaurant: Overall my experience has always been good. Food is very good. Service is fast and friendly. Chinese ambiance. One of these days I am going to try the smorgasbord. I am told it is great. http://www.restaurantthing.com/ca/bc/portalberni/restaurant.php?ID=16205 Wed, 04 Jun 2008 21:16:01 GMT Added a new restaurant Pine Restaurant. http://www.restaurantthing.com/ca/bc/portalberni/restaurant.php?ID=16205
