Short summary: the best appetizers, good burgers, good but overpriced salads. Two of us went in for a meal; one on a cleanse,... so limited with ordering. We found the staff to be nice and attentive but slightly pulled back in communication style. They dida great job all around, but I could feel it was near the end of a long day. We ordered the cauliflower bites and were overlyimpressed. I could have eaten them all night. I think there was parmesan in the breading and that way superb. They were cookedjust right and the presentation was awesome. The blue cheese dip paired perfectly with the hot sauce - both of us could havelived off of these things all night (and the next day, too). The burger and salad we ordered after were good, but didn't matchthe appies. The salad was good and there was a lot of it. The dressing was impressive - it was a mild lemon flavour that addedto the salad times without overpowering it at all. I'm generally someone who goes for the strongest dressings (like bleu cheese)to get more out of the dressing than the salad but this one impressed even me. The downfall of the salad was the price. It waslarge, but it was mostly lettuce. I wasn't impressed with the presentation, but I think the lighting at the table led to that.Maybe it would have come across better with brighter lights? I don't know. I can tell you that I couldn't tell there was a halfavocado in it until it was pointed out. The Southern chicken sandwich was good, too, but not perfect. The brioche bun wasgreat, the dressing and homemade pickles added a lot. The chicken meat was perfectly cooked, but the breading was a littleoverdone. Maybe the oil was to hot or getting old, but it did affect the presentation a bit. It was not burnt, but gettingthere. The meat, though, that was top notch. Juicy, tender, great thigh meat. I do love thigh meat. Read more

Spent a few days in Vancouver this past week and found this place much by mistake, and WOW am I ever glad we did. The hostess... and serving staff rock a 10 out of 10 and delivered a fantastic atmosphere. We had a truly great dinner with drinks. Next timeI am in Vancouver I will be back. Well worth a stop. Thanks to Kirstn for a memorable meal. Read more

Went before Elton John concert. Across the street from BC Place makes for great location. Very busy as both the concert and... hockey that night. Staff very busy but friendly. Service good for volume they're doing. Line up to get in just after we arrived.Sat outside to get a table right away. Wings and cauliflower bites were very good. Wife liked tge tacos and I tried the Duckpoutine...it was ok, nothing great. The wings, I'd go back for! Apple pie was huge and good! I'd definitely go back and tryother items, after having wings again!! Read more

We?ve gone for dinner multiple nights with consistently wonderful food and service. Excellent value. Food and drinks are... delicious, reasonably priced (and FAST) with a special touch to make them extraordinary. Atmosphere is welcoming, clean andcomfortable. Service is unpretentious and speedy. Everyone is attentive, friendly and happy. Great team! We loved the Caesarsalad, calamari, burger and steak frites the best. The cheesecake is also worth making room for, delicious! My partner thoughtthe Caesar drinks were unique and tasty. Read more

Tried the dyminate roll and it was one of the most driest rolls I have ever tasted. It was a real struggle to chew. Also tried... the poutine and thought it was okay. The meat was also very dry. Read more

Food was delicious and our server(an Irish guy by the name of Steven) was attentive to all our needs, we couldn?t say a bad... thing about his manners and professionalism. We will definitely revisit and appreciate all his tips and advice about Vancouver. Read more

Food, drinks, and service were absolutely fantastic! We had Kirsten as our server and she was an absolute gem. Their system was... down for a bit while we were waiting to take our food up to our room but we were in no rush! Kirsten kept checking in on us tomake sure our drinks were full and that it should be back up soon. I would recommend the shrimp linguini, chicken sandwich, andbaja shrimp tacos!! Read more

Food was way overpriced and food was the saltiest thing known to man. For 8 small chicken wings, 16$ is a decent deal but their... wings had a laughable salt content that's not even funny. Their chicken burger was fine but their fries were like fingersdipped in salt and gave them a little shake. The only thing that did not make me beg for water are the fish tacos, they weredone nice. Would not visit again, everything was good but food was like licking sand. Read more
