Great little diner/bar. It's pretty cool that it is so well hidden. I never knew this little gem existed. A friend recommended it to me for the best burger he had ever had. I first took my son, and discovered the best burger ever, then my daughter a few weeks later. It was a great treat to be here. The service was great, and they were very good about special diets. The food came hot, and the service was so friendly. Great place to have food and good conversation. It's not to loud, and yet feels private enough even with the closer layout of the tables.

Going to be honest: the drinks are incredible and tasty made with high quality liquor, but that still doesn’t justify such prices. It used to be much more affordable. But every once in a while I’m okay with spending a little more on a good drink. The way their menu is organized is also very confusing — it’s not intuitive at all. And third of all: the food is usually hyped on their social media, but I know 30 places in Victoria alone that can easily beat it, and a lot of it has to do with the presentation of the food. If you offer high quality food that’s exclusive and exquisite according to your concept and opinion, then it should also look like it. Oftentimes I find the plates to look really messy. I’ll say that the staff are amazing, especially the manager is a nice and friendly dude. I guess this place really just doesn’t know if it wants to be a bar or a restaurant, so it’s this weird hybrid thing. Not the best concept in my opinion.

Cocktails are on point!! Never had a bad drink here, in fact, every dunk I've had has been mind blowing. The bartenders are wizards. Service is really great and warm. Their duck and frites are to die for. The atmosphere is amazing. Granted it is a little pricey but it's really nice for a special occasion or when you feel like being extra! Writing this review makes me want to go back right now...

A tucked away gem near the waterfront, I'd been hearing about Little Jumbo a lot lately so when I got the chance to check it out for myself I was excited to do so. The space is very cozy and I really liked the tasteful and classy decor they have chosen to incorporate. The server was attentive and courteous, and showcased a good knowledge of spirits and cocktails. They have a nice selection of craft mixed drinks as well as whisky, beer and wines. The food is very good to boot, and while overall they are a bit pricy, the quality and service more than make up for it. Great place for a date or celebratory night out.

Before 8pm on a Thursday was delightfully quiet. I enjoyed the best cocktails of my life, and a burger that made me rethink my life. It's expensive, but there's a reason for that. People complain about small portions, but I found them absolutely perfect. Too many restaurants give you too much food to make up for the mediocre quality, in my opinion. This place wins. I'll be back.
