I had a business lunch at the new Parksville Beach Club Resort today in its Pacific Prime Steak & Chop restaurant. The restaurant is fairly intimate, it looks like room for only 30 or so, with amazing unobstructed views of Parksville beach, the Strait, and the Coast Mountains.
The menu was smaller than most other restaurants and offered salads, sandwiches, and a few other lunch entrees. I think small menus are a good thing - makes me think the food will be fresh. I'd say the average lunch was about $12.
I had Pacific Prime's version of fish & chips called "Torpedo Prawns". It was nicely presented with one of the best tartar sauces I've ever had. My colleague had the club stack sandwich that came with a generous portion of greens.
Both of us really enjoyed our first taste of Pacific Prime and it's safe to say we'll be back with friends and family.
