A nice evening out for more semi-formal meal at the Oak Bay Marina Restaurant. In addition, you could order the full menu at the bar. For more casual dining, a delicious sushi bar is also a part of the restaurant. A great coffee shop/cafe is one level below the restaurant. It's a great place to relax.
