    My husband and I had a lovely dinner, he had the scallops and I had the carpaccio for appetizers, and he had the pork chop and I had the salmon, all great! The complimentary bread was amazing and since we were celebrating an anniversary they also provided a lovely dessert. A very nice night out.

    This restaurant was one of the best we have ever been to. A lot of thought, creativity and planning goes into each and every dish. We had the scallops, carpaccio, sea bass and the lamb duo. It was outstanding! The cocktails were to die for. We had our kiddos with us, and to our surprise, they had something to eat for them as well! Our server was amazing, and the GM, Sandy, made us feel extra special and taken care of! Thank you so much!

    The experience and food at Botanist, is the best in Vancouver. The menu is always evolving, and the tasting menu is an adventure of the senses. It is Michelin star level dining. Lindsay was an amazing host throughout our evening! Very knowledgeable about the food, the chef, the restaurant, and elevated our experience.

    Great food and service. The music was too loud. My guest and I could not hear each other speak without shouting. All the other customers had to speak loudly, adding to the noise level. The choice of music was awful too.
