Best Restaurants with a Tasting Menu in Chinatown

It was limited lunch service for the holidays so the options were limited but what we had (kale salad and the kickass rice crack salad) were exceptional!

Five of us shared several appetizers (tofu salad, ebi and calamari), a main course (chicken katsu), and a sushi platter. All were excellent. Service was attentive. Highly recommend.

Best place for buffet brunch in Vancouver. Can't beat the view on a good day.

We celebrated my husband's birthday in Acquafarina and it was a great experience: great service, tasty food, and fantastic vibe. They even had a live violin performance.

Barbara is a beautiful experience of lovely staff and excellently executed dishes. As mentioned in other reviews, the space is intimate yet stylishly appointed. We wouldn’t have it any other way. In a city where one can have an endless variety of foods, Barbara manages to be quite more than a cut above the rest while remaining true to the vision of the owner/chef, Pat. Literally every single bite of our order: beef tartare, the in-house made stracciatella, the octopus, the celery root and the Arctic char and beef short rib managed to make ingredients we have had before become something special again. Be sure to order an inventive cocktail and save room for the included dessert. Ours was a Concord grape granita with maple drizzle that seemed made for each other. If you’re local or visiting this beautiful city, place Barbara on your list of “not to be missed” restaurants and make this reservations in advance. You’re in for a real treat.
