    The best restaurant in Vancouver in my opinion, taking into consideration all the factors such as quality of ingredients, level of cooking, service and professionalism of people working there, ambience! We just had a Chef’s menu and a wine paring to it. Amazing! As usual though.

    We celebrated our anniversary and could not have been happier with the service and the food. We received a complimentary glass of champagne to congratulate us, which was unexpected and appreciated. We shared the scallops as an appetizer and I had the duck and my husband the steak. It was all prepared to perfection. The bread was from a local bakery and was to die for, so good. The service was super attentive, the food and wine explained to us in major detail. We really enjoyed our experience. Although a little pricey, it was well worth it.

    What a great lunch! The service was a bit on the slow side as the restaurant was full, but everything was well executed and the food was delicious.

    Very good food and attentive service. However, noise level made ability to carry on table conversation a challenge.
