They still offered a Happy Hour menu on Christmas Eve which is amazing for me when dining solo. I was able to order two dishes and a beverage. The food was PHENOMENAL! I ordered the Caesar Salad and the oyster mushroom calamari. The view was stunning, the service was great. All around an amazing experience that made my solo holiday in Vancouver super special.

I initially saw the post about the Christmas lunch buffet on Instagram. I figured it would be a wonderful experience for my parents. The buffet was great with a huge variety. All of the staff were so courteous and helpful. I believe our server's name was Dwayne, super nice and helpful. Thankyou so much! It was a very festive and yummy lunch buffet.
