cactus club cafe

simply hard to beat. while i understand the need to support the small restaurants - i really really do-

but i have to say - cactus club (and milestones) are just extremely hard to beat. they have the je ne sais quoi that leaves you feeling relaxed and refreshed and at home. the decor is a little dark and masculine and ultra modern but you still feel comfortably and at home.

i had iron chef rob feenie's bbq duck clubhouse sandwich with a ginger breeze drink (*blackberry mint spritzer on ice type thing) and i was completely satisfied and highly recommend! cactus is a chain but if you read more on them, they are a canadian owned chain with good values, using sustainable practices and they givebackto the community. they are a good bc owned business and i would support any bc owned business that follows a cactus club model.

service good
served within 15 minutes.
bathrooms, great!
atmosphere, great!
food great!
people great.

thanks!

not a fan, but it has gotten better. i have never been much of a fan of the cactus club cafe on douglas, however i have had to go there a few times recently and found a few items that i did not mind. i just wish the wait staff was not so ignorant. they are never friendly, they take forever to bring you water or drinks and always have attitude. my biggest problem with this place..... i went here to sit on the patio and have some drinks, it's a great location of that (when the sun is out) we ordered 2 bellini's and waited for them to come, about 30 minutes later we got our drinks and realized they were not the doubles we wanted.. not a big deal, we decided just to add a shot to each, simple solution. we flagged down our waitress and told her to bring us to vodka shots to add... problem fixed. not only did she bring us 2 shots of vodka like we asked, she brought us the most expensive vodka they had....... our bellini's ended up costing a fraction of what the shot cost! just for that very rude move, we left immediately and she ended up costing herself a good tip... oh yha made the bar money but not herself.... not a smart move.
i do not think i will be goingbackhere again on my own accord.

i just gotbackfrom dinner and i had to give this place amazing feedback! the servers were extremely nice and helpful. the ambience was absolutely perfect and the food was to die for. it was easily one of the best meals i’ve had. the white chocolate cheesecake was a delicious end to this amazing dinner!!! i’d highly recommend going here.

i've been to cactus a few times many years before but i haven't gonebackuntil recently. i'm not quite sure why i always avoided going there, because this time around, it blew my socks away! the signature sangria was exactly what i needed on a friday night. the calamari was pleasantly flavourful and a very generous serving. i was craving fish tacos and there it was on the menu so i gave it a try. i didn't think two tacos would be so filling. it was served with side chips and with an assortment of sauces. the potato skins were delicious too. i will not forget to dine there next time!  apart from the food, they're most secondly known for their luxurious washrooms.

it's a chain, what did you expect?. i would never recommend cactus club to someone. way overpriced for terrible portions, and overly pretentious. it's not like cactus club is that great. if you slick your hairbackand wear sunglasses often, then feel free to get tipsy here and spend more money than you should because you think this is what nice dining is supposed to be like.

if you like food priced appropriately for its quality, go elsewhere.

i lurv this place!! creole chicken was soooo tasty and juicy. calamari was the best i ever had and the service was well above par. if i ever make my waybackto victoria i will happily return!

what a pleasure. the place was smoking busy but the service was still fantastic. there were plenty of great options on the menu which was nice to see. ordered the korean style lettuce wraps. large portion and very good. my friend had the pesto chicken quesadilla which she thoroughly enjoyed. the belinis were top notch and the white chocolate cheesecake was one of the best i have ever had. will bebackfor sure.

good times. went to cactus last friday around 6:30 - 7. we where told it would be 25 mins for a table, sounded right for a friday nite. went for a walk around the block and camebackwait 2 mins and a booth was ready. i ordered the mushrooom steak and my gf ordered the roast chicken. edamabe ?!? beans for appy. beans where good, not to salty (what else can u say) and both our mains where fantasic. every bit from booth plates where gone. the service was friendly and helpful but not annoy. any complaints about the way the girls look/dress/ wear makeup need to get a grip. u want ur food served by a rude beast with arm hair dragging in ur soup then go to spoons. like u didnt know what ur where getting ur self into when u went, suck it up, ur ugly and dont take it out on others.. hahaha
