The service was amazing from the moment we arrived until we left. The seafood tower and beef carpaccio were delicious. A must try. Thank you for making our birthday celebration so special. We’ll be back.

I had high expectations, but unfortunately, my experience was extremely disappointing. I ordered the wagyu ribeye steak, expecting a flavorful and well marbled cut of meat. Instead, it was one of the worst steaks I’ve ever had—tough and bland. The rest of the food followed suit—mediocre at best, with uninspired flavors. For the price point, I expected much better quality and attention to detail. Service was also underwhelming. The food took a long time to come out, and our server seemed disinterested and rarely checked on our table. Given the premium prices, I expected attentive and professional service. Overall, the meal was overpriced and far from worth it. I left feeling disappointed that such an expensive dinner failed to deliver on all fronts. I wouldn’t recommend this restaurant and definitely won’t be returning.

Service and food were excellent. The “large platter” dessert comes with an off-menu strawberry shortcake which was delightful. We will be back next time we are in Vancouver.

Excellent Festive Dinner with Friends. Food and Drink choices and execution were perfect. Just the right amount of attention from our server. It was noisy, but to be expected from Holidaymakers.

I love this restaurant. Always a stop when I'm in Vancouver. Wanted my server to decide on oysters for me. 4 out of 4 were wonderful. Seared scallops dish was incredible with the curry flavour and scallops cooked to perfection. Going back again tomorrow for brunch.
