PLUVIO
restaurant
The small restaurant and open kitchen allow for personal and refined service in an environment inspired by our surroundings. Bar height seating allows guests to catch a glimpse of the action in the kitchen or behind the bar, with seating at the kitchen or bar counter offering dinner and a show! As the restaurant has very limited capacity, reservations are strongly recommended.
Pluvio restaurant + rooms offers a unique, award winning dining experience, celebrating the best local products and natural elements of Ucluelet and Vancouver Island.
Chef Warren Barr and the team prepare creative and inspired Canadian cuisine, focusing on seasonal and wild ingredients foraged from the Ucluelet forests and coastline, with a few sneaky international treats! You are as likely to find spruce and wild rose as you are truffle and caviar on our menu.
Our beverage menu compliments this unique style of food, with creative cocktails, house made infusions, craft BC ciders and local beers. Our wine list is curated by our Sommelier Chloe and is always changing to showcase interesting and unique wines from BC and around the world, made by people who care.
Our menus change seasonally depending on what is available from our farmers, fishers, foragers and producers. We have two menu options available; a three course dinner menu (where each guest can write their own story with a selection of appetizer, main course and dessert) or a five course chef's tasting menu, (where the kitchen will take you on an adventure) with or without wine pairings.
For guests travelling from further afield or looking to treat themselves to an unforgettable experience, our boutique hotel rooms offer a comfortable place to rest + recharge, located beside the kitchen garden. Each room has a private balcony, outside entrance and exclusive use of our rooftop garden patio.
We are honoured to have been selected as Canada's 33rd Best Restaurant for 2023, and 'Best Destination Restaurant' and 37th Best Restaurant for 2022 by 'Canada's 100 Best Restaurants', Canada's 'Best Fine Dining Restaurant' for 2022 by the Trip Advisor Community, and '4th Best New Restaurant in Canada' in 2019 by Air Canada's enRoute magazine at the 'Canada's Best New Restaurant' awards.
