Suggestions for Dining and Drinking near Vancouver

Scott R. • December 23, 2016Best of class ice cream with often a legendary wait. Whiskey hazelnut and salted caramel are perennial favourites.

Patrick H. • August 17, 2014Wonderful coffee shop with great atmosphere. Awesome espresso drinks, but if you have a little time try a Tasting or Brew Flight - you won't regret it. If you love coffee don't miss this place.

Jennifer B. • October 11, 2018Amazing!!! And super unique and interesting food and flavors. Plus, the atmosphere is comfortable and casual and the service was great, as in also comfortable and casual yet very knowledgeable.

Juan V. • July 4, 2015This place is famous for steaks, which I love, but I usually go to the lounge and have their classic cocktails. Service is always friendly and attentive. Their burgers are fantastic, too!

Alex J. • March 1, 2018small, focused menu. super tender pork and perfectly runny egg yolks. you can customise your soup to a great extent, which I didn't realise on my first visit, so worth having a think about! ✨

Cameron F. • October 31, 2013After nine the music is live and amazing, who doesn't love house music!

Joyce L. • January 1, 2011delicious food with excellent service and lovely french accents! oh, and crocodile shaped chocolates at the end. :)

Alastair K. • February 24, 2012Simply outstanding food and value, but you gotta make a reservation way in advance. Best place to sit? At the bar.

Marcella Y. • May 17, 2014all-time favourite creamy whiskey hazelnut

Sarp E. • November 19, 2018Fun and twisty take on traditional tacos; fresh and delicious its a cantina style spot, with a colorful decoration and friendly service! 🌮 ❤️ 🍹

Megan R. • March 18, 2013If the soup of the day is tomato you must try it. Incredible. Pair it with the Chicken Club and you'll have lunch and dinner taken care of for the day!

Dominic R. • March 28, 2019Fresh pasta made daily in-house + a Italian themed music playlist (Dean, Frank, etc.) + Prosecco on tap = arguably THE BEST Italian restaurant in Vancouver. Buon Appetito!

Chris W. • June 3, 2018I had a flat white and a sandwich (I think Italian). My girlfriend the matcha latte and a French sandwich. Super good. Even tho‘ it’s kind of remote I highly recommend this place for coffee/breakfast

J • April 14, 2015Best items: croissants (the most decadent & buttery in the city), duck prosciutto brioche sandwich (heaven!), and Queen's Guard tea (floral rose tea).

Rebecca K. • August 23, 2019Aburi sushi combo is a must! Share with a friend or two.

Rob D. • September 12, 2018Cool little pizza place tucked in a residential neighbourhood. Delicious, thin crust pizza. Cocktails were good as well.

Jessica C. • September 25, 2011Best Japanese lunch in Vancouver. Try the Deluxe set, Tonkatsu set, or Kakuni Bowl. Unforgettable.

Evan S. • June 28, 2016Amazing burgers and bowls, and the fries are the BEST in the city!! This is my go-to place for cheap comfort food in Gastown now!

Carolyne G. • September 28, 2014Beautiful spot to see sunset. Sit downstairs with open windows or upstairs (closed windows). Great bellini. Their chicken is one of the most tender i have ever eaten. Great food overall.

Reihaneh H. • September 14, 2017The waffle cones are made in house and are amazing. They have plenty of really good flavours but the Salted Caramel is a must try .....😌👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼

Niña • August 2, 2011Order the Deep Fried Squid (same batter as the wings, minus bones = less work), Butter Beef; and the Beef Luc Lac with Egg (family size portion available).

pixarina • March 31, 2018aburi oshi trio for everyone: salmon (kid fave), ebi (SO fave), mackerel (my fave), ebi fritters, and sunset roll. no room for dessert!

Raffy • July 22, 2012For brunch, try the Fable egg and in-house smoked salmon eggs benny: they're winners.

Kimberlee B. • April 17, 2012Best Pecan and toffee ice cream !! With chocolate cone! - highly recommended!

J. • January 4, 2019We ordered a lot of things — spicy fried chicken, tuna tataki, yuzu chicken wings, wagyu udon, and uni udon — and everything was awesome! Great service and great ambiance. Trendy and comfortable.

Norbert H. • January 20, 2012White chocolat cheesecake. So good!

Angela C. • July 6, 2016My favourite at Minami & Miku will always be the Aburi Salmon Oshi Sushi, hands down. The Saba one is also quite tasty also. For dessert - Green Tea Opera!

Raphael M. • March 22, 2014Top 3 coffee shops in Vancouver. Must try it. And while you are at if, try their almond croissant too.

Metro News • January 28, 2010Wicked fast service makes this a great lunch spot. Try the braised beef tongue, pulled pork cheek, albacore tuna or the outstanding chicken in mole sauce. Don't forget a bottle of tamarind fizz.
