Citified.ca posted topic The future of Fort Street's Antique Row retail make-up | Have your say
lpoutine,
Citified.ca has just posted a new topic entitled "The future of Fort Street's Antique Row retail make-up | Have your say" in forum "Retail Establishments & Grocery Markets".
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Fort Street's Antique Row is undergoing significant change as new projects reinvigorate this once popular commercial strip in downtown Victoria. Fort Common, which has spearheaded the rejuvenation of the area's retail landscape, was the first step in turning Fort Street into a thriving and inviting place for local businesses to operate. Now the next phases are coming to fruition, and the public has a chance to weigh in on what an ideal mix of retailers should be.
There are multiple ways to provide your feedback. You can do so directly in this thread, or via Citified's Facebook page here, VibrantVictoria's Facebook page here, or by privately emailing your thoughts to admin@thesalientgroup.com.

AllseeingEye posted topic Azteca Tacos and Grill 788 Yates St
lpoutine,
AllseeingEye has just posted a new topic entitled "Azteca Tacos and Grill 788 Yates St" in forum "Restaurant & Eatery Reviews".
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Our team does a bi-monthly work lunch and today we happened to choose this place literally on the corner of Yates and Blanshard: the bottom line is if you like Mexican this joint gets two thumbs way up. Its awesome grub. Its not a physically large space - the ten of us easily took up a third of it - but it more than makes up for lack of elbow room with outstanding food at reasonable prices and large portions.
I had an Aztecan Soup and carne asada (grilled beef) burrito and had to have half the burrito boxed up to be eaten at dinner.
The burrito's, the Parrillada Azteca and Flauta's (rolled tortillas with your choice of meat and other topping goodies) were all big hits with our group. They also offer a breakfast burrito, a kids menu, they do vegan and participate on Skip the Dishes, so there are plenty of options and lots to like about this new place. They don't yet have a website but here is a link to a bunch of Google reviews on the right hand side of the following page:
https://www.google.com/search?q=azteca+tacos+and+grill&rlz=1C1AWFA_enCA839CA839&oq=Azteca+&aqs=chrome.4.69i57j0l7.8612j0j8&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8 (https://www.google.com/search?q=azteca+tacos+and+grill&rlz=1C1AWFA_enCA839CA839&oq=Azteca+&aqs=chrome.4.69i57j0l7.8612j0j8&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8)
Go to the See Outside link, grab the screen with your cursor and pan right: this place occupies that tiny location between Brickyard Pizza and the Carnegie Building so you can see its not large. Its the old "Efes" space.
