3 Best Restaurants in Ucluelet, Vancouver Island

Former Wickaninnish Inn executive chef Warren Barr and his partner Lily Verney-Downey opened tiny Pluvio to up the culinary scene in Tofino's humble neighboring town. Thoughtfully prepared dishes are made from scratch with local, wild ingredients often foraged by Barr himself. Two dinner options are on offer: a three-course dinner menu for $91 per person or chef's tasting menu for $168 including wine ($111 without).  The property includes the 30-seat dining room with living art wall and also a four-room boutique hotel in the backyard next to the kitchen garden.

One of the new kids in town, this Korean eatery offers modern comfort food with amazing views. Located right at the marina, the restaurant sits on an island accessed by a causeway in the middle of Ucluelet Harbor (Seom means island in Korean). The menu features the freshest ingredients sourced by local producers.
