Lovely food and staff - Edit
Had a really nice meal here the night before Canadian Thanksgiving. I got the quesadilla, which was more like tacos than a quesadilla but still delicious. And for dessert I had a slice of vegan pumpkin cheesecake.

Best vegan fare we had in Victoria - Edit
In a city with lots of vegan options, Be Love shines above the rest. Lots of delicious WFPB options, diverse menu to choose from, friendly staff, and great ambience.

Great vibe, food, & drinks - Edit
Lovely sit-down spot, slightly upscale but very relaxed. We had amazing mushroom gnocchi and a great lentil rice bowl. We had some nice herbal teas and delicious chocolates.

Hearty Food - Edit
The green bowl was hearty and filling, mild spice. There’s a small row of patio seating out front and the restaurant doesn’t have AC so it was nice to sit outside with a breeze.

Favorite meal in Victoria - Edit
The food here is incredible. Super high quality and creative options. I had the quesadilla, which was MASSIVE, the nori rolls (app), and my partner had the rising Sun bowl. I’m pretty sure the food is 100% vegan, they just need to stop using honey in the drinks so the entire restaurant can be vegan!

Bowls, Bowls, All Types of Bowls - Edit
I ate lunch here with a friend; his meal, the Rising Sun Bowl, looked amazing and had lots of variety, and he kept going on and on about how great it was.
Read moreMy bowl, the Karma Bowl, was very odd. It was just quinoa, lentils, bbq tempeh and salad dressing. I did not enjoy this meal at all.
I wish there were more gluten-free options. There is very little to choose from if you have allergies.
The service was pretty good, although a bit slow, and the room is interesting to sit in. I would go back if they added more GF options.

Delicious and healthy fare - Edit
We loved the fresh veggies in the sushi roll appetizer, the walnut crumble cashew mac and cheese, and the teriyaki soycurls in the sunrise bowl! The rich creamy cashew cheese in the mac was a stand out!

Great food and drink - Edit
The restaurant was buzzing when we arrived - always a good sign, particularly having walked past a number of establishments which were virtually empty.
Read moreA varied menu with an additional specials menu.
The Mac (and cheese) was delicious, and you will not be disappointed with the portion size.
The rose we had from the specials menu was superb - one of the best I've tasted, and was a local wine.
All complemented by the staff, who were attentive, engaging and helpful.

Great Mac N Cheeze - Edit
The MaC N Cheeze here is amazing (and gluten free). My only complaint is that every single item on the lunch menu has Kale. I have an allergy, so it’s a bit frustrating that there is not more variety in that regard.
