Situated in the district of Esquimalt and just minutes from downtown, is one of the city’s best hidden 💎 gems and a local favorite.

I simply must have fresh oysters when visiting Vancouver Island and Gaby’s serves fresh locally grown Pacific Oysters from a small fishing community up island called Fanny Bay!
Superb!!
✔ Fish and Chips (Halibut)
A very popular dish and for good reason! Fresh Pacific halibut served with in house made cut fries and homemade Tartar sauce.

Update
My wife and I returned this summer for another great meal at Gaby’s. Below are a couple of teaser’s on what we had for dinner.
I enjoyed the Hot Turkey Sandwich, Smothered in In-House Turkey Gravy, served with delicious House Cut Fries! 🙂
On the Healthier Side, my wife selected the Black Bean Veggie Burger with Avocado, Veggies & Cheese on a Toasted Bun. Very tasty! 🙂
Update October 2022
Due to changes made at the ⚓ Marina where Gaby’s restaurant is located a few seasons ago, they have had to close their doors for business at this time.
We are all anxiously awaiting for a new location, and to see them re-open in the not too distant future. 🙁
