    I consider myself an avid traveller and diner. Notch8 is extremely over priced with poor ambiance and service. The food was of superior quality, so hats off to the back of the house. When they ask in the on-line reservation if it is a special occasion, you complete it…but staff don’t even read it. So I took the manager aside, explained situation and that it was a birthday - they then bring out one of those birthday desserts…and charge us $12 for it. One of our party ordered the dry aged striploin, but when our waitress was asked how many days it was aged or where the beef was from, they had no idea. Took about 40 mins just for a bread order. Additionally with live music playing by our table, was very difficult to have a conversation. In conclusion…in this price range, many other restaurants which would be much better options. I would not recommend Notch8 and nobody in our party of 4 intend to return.

    It was the best brunch buffet I have ever had in Vancouver! Great service, the vibe and selections of food; and most importantly, all the foods were so delicious, fresh, and flavourful. I will definitely come back for this.

    Our server Dutchess made us feel welcome and had a good interest to connect with us. My steak was overcooked but still juicy and flavorful. That said, I would expect the back of the house to master temperature of the steak. If i may suggest one thing, I think the hostess on duty could/should have been more welcoming. There was no smile and my joiner finds her cold. We could not tell if she is naturally robotic, inwardly friendly or simply tired of the guests and door-to-door jobseekers. I have not seen this at other Fairmont outlets. I wonder if the standard may be different at this particular outlet.

    First time going to Notch8, and I LOVED it. For ordering just appies from the happy hour menu, they were incredibly delicious and filling. The portions are good(not your pretentious tiny ones) and price is very good compared to the portions of the food. I'm 100% returning to this location to try a full meal :)

    Our waitress was not attentive and did not ask about allergies. My food arrived with dairy which was not mentioned on the menu nor by the waitress. When I asked to reorder, the waitress did not mention if the other dishes had dairy which resulted in me ordering another dish with dairy (also not labelled on the menu)... We were disappointed by the lack of consideration and service.
