Dakota Cafe

Located on the grounds of the Victoria International Airport. It is located in the Victoria Flying Club's building and it is a short distance from the British Columbia Aviation Museum. There is ground level seating inside and patio seating outside. Small planes are parked outside and there is an excellent view of all planes taking off and landing at the airport. Casual seating, friendly staff and a good selection of eats. Daily specials of soups, wraps and other foods. The restaurant is open to the public but is used by the Flying Club, airport staff and others interested in flying. Lots of interesting flight related pictures and memorabilia.

Me and my friend went to check this place out after seeing news about it, and were impressed by the speedy and friendly service. We tried their famous wonton soups (chicken and seafood), and one large bowl was all we needed for our meal! It's definately the best I've ever tasted, the fresh handmade wontons are so good! We'll definately come back to try some other stuff. Just seeing what other people were getting was tempting in itself!

Truly a great little Cafe. Patio area is nice to sit on. Food is excellent! Love that the wontons in the wonton soup are hand made! (Only available Monday, Wednesday, and Friday-get there early as they do sometimes run out!) The burgers and Onion rings are awesome! The owners take pride and joy in their Cafe. They go above and beyond! Making sure to take care of their customers!

reasonable price, quiet with great customer service, hidden away below the airport tower, have view of the flight club training, would have given 5 stars if parking lot wasn't full and their desserts not look so very much store bought their smoked salmon shrimp club was very generous and onion rings extra crispy will definitely return

A perfect place for a relaxing brunch. If you’re on a road trip or just got off from the ferry, this cafe is such a convenient place to visit. The decor is not flamboyant but artsy, hand-drawn by the owner. The staff are all very friendly, hard-working and humble, almost feels like home. There’s a generous amount of food on the plate and totally worth the price! The presentation is absolutely stunning, as well as the flavour — blown my mind. The menu is cohesive and full of healthy choices, whatever you pick would always be delicious!
