sous-chef
The Ruby on Douglas · Victoria, BC · $50.00 hourly
Posted 2026-08-01 · Reviewed on 2026-09-09 · What do these ratings mean?
Verdict
The restaurant is real, but the web check found an explicit location mismatch: resumes are mailed to 642 Johnson St (a Best Western hotel), not the Ruby's actual 3110 Douglas St location, and the $50/hr sous-chef wage is far above market for the role. Mailing physical resumes to an address that is not the employer's is a meaningful diversion risk.

| Summary | The Ruby on Douglas is a real, established breakfast/brunch restaurant in Victoria, BC. Official website therubyvictoria.com is reachable. However, LOCATION MISMATCH: The posting claims "The Ruby on Douglas" but lists mailing address 642 Johnson St (Best Western Carlton Plaza Hotel). The actual Ruby on Douglas is located at 3110 Douglas St, Hotel Zed. The 642 Johnson St address is a hotel, not the restaurant's location. This is a RED FLAG—the mailing address does not match the restaurant's actual location. |
