Went to a Book club meeting at the downtown location this morning and had a delightful experience! Really can't wait to go again. I ordered the fried chicken sandwich with fries, as did every other member of my group! It was exceptional. I think they have something magical that they put on top of that fried chicken just sort of sweet and delicious. We also ordered the little donuts and they were fried delicious nuggets of yumminess. I definitely want to go back. read more

DAIRY ALLERGY MISHANDLED -- WAITER LIED ABOUT CHECKING WITH THE KITCHEN My girlfriend has a serious dairy allergy. Before she arrived, I spent time with our waiter going through the menu carefully -- no butter, no dairy, confirmed twice. He even went back to check with the kitchen and returned saying her meal was completely dairy free. It wasn't. Someone else at the table tasted the green beans and suspected butter. When I asked again, the waiter confirmed they'd been cooked in oil and butter -- after already telling us they were safe. By then the pork chop had been sitting on top of them and was contaminated. His response? "I can bring you another side." No offer to replace the meal. No offer to remove it from the check. Nothing. We had a show to catch at the Magenta Theater and no time to push it, so my girlfriend skipped dinner and grabbed something at Burgerville afterward -- she had a headache by the end of the show. The food and everything else about the evening was genuinely good. But between the false assurance, the contaminated meal, and the complete absence of any effort to make it right, I can't recommend this restaurant to anyone managing a food allergy -- and I'll be thinking hard before coming back myself. read more

We get the hype! Cozy restaurant, with a warm, intimate vibe. We were seated in a booth (by a window) so we could gaze outside. Amy and Tana were our servers and they were delightful! We shared the pretzel fondue appetizer - worth ordering! Mr. Wonderful ordered the fried chicken, coleslaw and mashed potatoes. I had the cheeseburger with housemade chips, chips are *not to be missed! For dessert we had the ricotta donuts, which are a ridiculously good indulgence! read more

First off, I love the downtown location. There were lots of parking options nearby. Coming inside, the team was super friendly. The table in front of the fireplace was clearing up and we asked if we could get that one. They cleaned it off really fast and got us seated. I ordered an old fashioned and it was smooth! Very tasty. I got the happy hour burger and a plate of fries. The burger was cooked well and has a great seasoning. The toppings were nice and fresh. The French fries were fantastic, a perfect golden brown and were complimented by the aioli. Overall a great experience! Great service, great food, great location! read more

I'm surprised I haven't gotten a review in for Amaro's yet... my bad! This review is at least 3-years overdue! Amaro's is tucked away at 12th and Main in downtown Vancouver. We discovered it on a cold rainy night in 2022 and loved it from our first visit. We haven't often sat in the actual restaurant... we're usually found perched up in the bar. The bartenders are all very friendly and service is on-point. They make a mean martini. Their food is excellent, never had something I didn't like. I particularly the chicken sandwich and marsala. Both are solid options. Their house salad + a side of ranch slaps! They offer a reverse happy hour starting at 9pm, which we admittedly take advantage of quite often. This is one of the most consistent restaurants in all of Vancouver and comes highly recommended from us! read more

Me and 2 friends came at about 7pm on Sunday for a cocktail, we walked in and immediately were greeted but the host said "can I help you?" Rather than "welcome, how many in your party" blah blah, which I thought was odd. Nonetheless we were seated at the bar, male bartender was attentive, and make excellent drinks! We will be back for food another day, but the drinks were good, the vibe was good, very relaxing and cozy feeling! read more

Amaro's Table is a wonderful restaurant...both the food and the customer service are excellent.

Service was fantastic. Seated right away for dinner and staff was attentive. I got the new mezcal drink and it was very yummy. We also got the Brussel sprouts appetizer, tortilla soup, beat salad and ribs. The Mac n cheese (came was ribs) was great. The salad was very good was well! Great ambiance for dinner with my mom. We'll be back! read more

Another great experience here at their downtown location. Super cool decor and upscale vibe inside. Staff is super friendly, helpful and accommodating. Love how light and bright everything is inside. So many windows! A group of 10 of us stopped in for drinks after having dinner nearby. We asked to sit in the bar and luckily they had an open table available to accommodate all of us. This downtown location is much smaller than the one in Hazel Dell. It was a Saturday night around 7:30, so we were grateful they had room for us. We ordered a variety of their signature cocktails, including a couple non alcoholic ones for the drivers. All cocktails were delicious and had lovely presentations. My only gripe was someone (the bartender?) was messing with the chandelier lights while we were there and it made it odd when trying to have a conversation. I'm not completely sure what was going on. We really enjoyed our time here while catching up with friends. We'll definitely add this place to our monthly get together rotation! read more

Service: 10/10 Environment: 9/10 Cleanliness: 10/10 Food: 8/10 (See below) First time here: No Sixth to seventh time here...3rd in the last year or so. Bill before tip: $108 In looking back at my last review it seems I had almost the same meal as before (which I did not intend) & many of my observations there are still relevant, so I will only update here. I went with an appetizer which I rarely do alone as in almost never. The fritters were a fantastic melt in your mouth with a crispy outer texture delight & the honey butter was just sweet enough, but you want to make sure you have a nice amount on each bite. This time at the suggestion of my server, I upgraded to the prawns for a surf & turf which turned out to be a fantastic upsell as the prawns were the star of the show. I went with the seasoned over the blackened as I figured with a prepared steak lacking any real seasoning additions would be more of a grilled meaty taste & I wanted something to compliment. The prawns delivered, hands down. However, either through intention or ignorance someone or multiples there of have messed with the establishment's soda system. The Coke was flatter than 2 day old prosecco & lacked syrup. When I informed the server it was flat & maybe they should check their carbonation, they replaced it stating they believed the bag had just changed...however there wasn't a single carbonation bubble in either glass. I know people say 'I don't drink alone.' and I am one of those. This in fact may be the second time in my life I have & it is because they do serve one of my favorite wines, a riesling, which is a Sun Garden. If you like a sweet wine, then I would suggest this. They removed the dessert I had last time, which I think was a good move. When I originally sat down & considered the course of my meal I landed on either the creme brûlée or brownie with ice cream. When it came time for dessert, we discussed the various options and there were one or two which were not on the menu & this threw me. Not in a bad way, however I lost focus & forgot the creme brûlée was an option. I would have gone with the creme brûlée, but I was going from memory & since the server didn't mention it...oh well. I'm not blaming them, I simply went with the brownie & should not have. I didn't notice or remember it was a gluten free option which when it comes to baked goods mostly comprised of a gluten substance in historical recipes there is a huge difference in mouth feel & taste. The brownies are more of a fudge consistency & lack in chocolate flavor. Keep in mind I have a sweet tooth, which is one reason I like the Sun Garden mentioned above, and I barely made it through the first brownie. I resorted to the ice cream & the raspberry sauce. My suggestion would be to focus a bit more on the prawns & string beans first & then the steak & potatoes. The prawns & string beans are smaller in mass, so they will not retain their temperature as long; plus if you are going to take something home..steak & potatoes will reheat much better than leftover seafood. I hope you found this helpful & you can walk out of here for much cheaper than I did since I had a soda, glass of wine & a 3 course meal. read more

We stopped here on are way home from Seattle. We were retired hungry and still had a few hours to drive. We ordered the herb chicken sandwich and shrimp linguine. The shrimp in the linguine were nice sized perfectly cooked. My sandwich came with french fries, which I have not had in a long time. They made a fresh pot of coffee for my husband. I think he drank the entire pot before we left. He said it was excellent coffee. Our waitress was very professional, attentive and overall a joy to have wait on us. Most servers are not up to par these days. They even brought us a free plate of homemade ricotta donuts, which were excellent. I would love to come back and try some of their elixir cocktails very unusual intriguing looking. read more

One of my favorite restaurants for the food, service, and attention to detail. I usually get a salad with their perfectly grilled salmon. It always delivers. My friends rave about the fried chicken and rotating specials. It's small and intimate inside--always clean and tidy. It's easy to hear and have long conversations here. The service is watching but unobtrusive. I appreciate that because it gives me a chance to connect with the people I'm with. Make a reservation--this place fills up quickly on Friday and Saturday nights. read more

Amaro is the new hip chef as he continues to open new vibes restaurants varying in cuisine. I've been here 4-5 times and never dissatisfied. Fresh ingredients and unique combinations. All bartenders are trained mixologists which makes cocktails an experience in its own. read more

I have been wanting to come here for some time and thankful my hubby and I made it as was not disappointed at all. They have parking in the same complex as a heads up! I sat at the bar while they prepped the outside table. The bartender was friendly and made the perfect whiskey lullaby. My dad got me hooked on Sazeracs and this was very similar and just as delicious. All the staff were wonderful and continued to check in on us. One of the longer time staff said hello and shared that Cecilia and Gustav's was under the same group, which I've been a long time patron of Gustav's and Cecilia just went to twice in a month and celebrated my birthday with friends. All have a different vibe and I am fond of all :) We ordered the ricotta and fig starter and had the citrus glazed salmon with potatoes and Brussels sprouts. The dips that came with were mouth watering. I'm typically not a fan of potatoes but I ate a good portion of them and polished off at home the following day. The Blueberry tres leches melts in your mouth! Amaro's cocktail and spirits will be bringing me back for sure...Needless to say I'm a big fan and will be bringing friends to Amaro's! read more

Gluten-Free Review: So, my mom and I decided to hit up Amaro's Table after surviving a particularly stressful appointment, because nothing says "we survived" like lunch, right? I heard whispers of gluten-free options so in we went around noon, fully prepared to contend with the midweek lunch frenzy. We ended up at the bar area, wondering if we were about to witness a dramatic showdown between hungry patrons and their tummies. But fear not! We ordered the chicken herb sandwich on a gluten-free bun. And holy gluten-free goodness, it was yum! Normally, when you get a chicken sandwich, sometimes the chicken doesn't have much flavor, but this had such a delicious herb flavor but I was surprised at how good it was. Oh, and the fries were pretty good as well. The location is being worked on right now across the way but I still live it. Rest assured, I will be returning for more adventures in gluten free dining! Who knew stress could lead to such delightful culinary discoveries read more

Brought my mom here for her birthday and we had such a fantastic time. Friendly, attentive, and informed service, a beautiful space that was not too loud, and most importantly, just the most out of control delicious food. It's been like two weeks and I can't stop thinking about the chicken sandwich and the ricotta doughnuts. Also, they made my mom feel special on her birthday, and I can't thank them enough for that. read more

Such an awesome place. Very warm greeting, helpful service, delicious food and fantastic prices for afternoon happy hour (starts at 2 pm)! I had the soup of the day-white beans with kale and sausage- and a Caesar salad, with an Arnold Palmer (a beverage purchase is required to order food from the happy hour menu, but it doesn't have to be alcohol.) Let me start with the soup- SO good. Full flavor profile that was incredibly satisfying. The salad was very fresh and tasty. Oh, we also shared the corn fritters and I strongly recommend them. I know this may sound weird, but can I just say how much I appreciate a place that has a nice restroom?! Really attractive, well-stocked and very clean. read more

Wow, wow, wow. Came into Amaro's after a flight into PDX and was blown away. Excellent, welcoming experience from Server/Bartender Alexis. Beautiful bar with a massive whiskey selection. Excellent whiskey sours (4 roses well!). Dinner was spectacular- steak sandwich, pretzel, and Mac and cheese. They threw a dessert on the house after hearing it was my first time in- again, spectacular. So great I came back the next 2 days. Food and atmosphere continued to exceed expectations and bartender Zach was more than knowledgeable/hospitable. Will be back next time I am in town-no doubt. read more

Best meal we have eaten in a long time! First, our server Kevin was amazing! Personable, attentive, funny, friendly and overall GREAT energy. We sat next to the fireplace in at a beautiful table. Really great atmosphere here. Now for the food...wowza! My husband had the fried chicken with mashed potatoes and I had the Chicken Masala. It DID NOT dissapoint. We cleaned everything off the plate. Incredibly good. We finished the meal off with the creme brulee which was perfect in every way. Will absolutely be coming back here. Shout out to the hostess and all other staff members that have us a warm welcome and farewell. Love this place!!! read more

It was my first time here, this restaurant is gorgeous, very aesthetic and charming. I came here for a late lunch and ordered their corn fritter, and the chef's daily risotto that changes. The staff member, Tana, that was attending my visit was very attentive and gave excellent service. She gave suggestions and recommendations, very honest. She told me that today's risotto was delicious and I have to agree with her. Now back to the food, the corn fritters came with 5. It reminded me of hush puppies, the honey butter was nice. It is a bit heavy and a lot for one person. Definitely a great shareable item. The chef's daily risotto took a bit to make which makes sense. However, it was so delicious. The risotto was cooked with mushrooms, then there's some butternut squash, Parmesan and a pistachio pesto on top of the risotto then it's topped with grilled pork belly and microgreens. This was a heavy and hearty risotto. Gorgeous plating. The pork belly was melt in your mouth tender, that fat had been rendered and could easily slice through it. Mixing every component of the risotto into one bite was perfect. Overall, I'll definitely be coming back to try their other dishes. They do have daily happy hour, from 2-5pm and 9-10pm. There's drinks and various appetizers/dishes that aren't full price during this time (corn fritters) included. I've heard about their ricotta doughnuts so will come back to try this next time. I was really full from this meal and had leftovers to take home. The staff were very nice, and welcoming. Also for parking, there's street parking which isn't too bad for downtown Vancouver. They also have another location up in Hazel Dell. read more

The fried chicken sandwich was really good, like one of the best I've eaten. I don't understand how the chicken was so tender. Great crunchy but soft roll it was served on. My son had the chicken marsala, and it was wonderful. Lots of veggies. The salmon with the blood orange beurre blanc, was also amazing. I'd guess Coho salmon? It wasn't specified on the menu. The restaurant was full, so we were seated in the overflow/atrium. It wasn't ideal. Servers had to walk farther, and service didn't seem as good. I'd agree with others, that this is probably the best restaurant in Vancouver. read more

Though reservations were booked when I called two hours ahead of time, by the time we arrived, a table had become available. By 6pm on a Thursday night, even the bar seating was packed, bc this place is that good. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, and dimly lit for dinner. Bring your glasses to read the menu "). While the downtown Vancouver space is cozy, it adds to the overall experience, creating a lively yet relaxed vibe. The food is incredible! We ordered the fried chicken dish, and the steak sandwich wrapped in lettuce, served with house-made potato chips and special house dip. The staff went above and beyond to make sure we felt welcome and well taken care of. Amaro's Table is a must-visit for anyone who appreciates amazing food. read more

This place is such a hit or miss!!!! Man! Came in last Saturday with my friend without reservations. Host said it was about a 15 min wait and/or we could sit at the bar (order drinks or not). We sat at the bar, I ordered a glass of Malbec from the bartender with the most pissed off face! Then decided to ask for my ID (fine), and dropped off the most miserable portion of wine I've ever seen for $12 with a with most unpleasant facial expressions. Cool thanks. The host called us for our table, I told him whatever is easier for you. He closed my tab I paid/tipped and we moved. ****Apparently there was a huge table, and they forgot to mention this. If we would have know this we would have kindly DECLiNEd and gone somewhere else. I ordered another glass which took forever. My friend ordered Diet Coke When they brought it I told her it was flat, and it was. Let the server know, took forever to come back to tell her the machine wasn't working. (So everyone was drinking flat soda and getting charged) My friend ordered a steak sandwich and I ordered one to go for my hubby. I ordered the servers recommendation. Prawns in guallillo/pepita sauce. $18 and a bowl of soup. $7 10 hours later, and asking why everything was taking so long. She came back to tell us are you in a rush? Yea, we've also been waiting 50 minutes. Another 15 minutes passed food came out. My friends steak sandwich was delicious perfect. My weird, bitter, COLD prawns and COLD soup were not. I let her know and I also said but I was starving so I ate it! She said "I do the same thing.... " Let her manager know and he came after we paid to let us know we could have free donut balls. Thanks but no. read more

My favorite restaurant in Vancouver! Always good service and quality. Happy Hour 3-5 is the best deal!! Terrific crew.

I've never really understood the draw to risotto but now I've had a good one. The staff was attentive and gracefully delt with a few seating changes when our party wasn't as large as we'd reserved for. The decor is nice, lighting low and the chandelier was beautiful. I had probably the best Amaretto Sour I've ever had. Will go back to explore the drink menu. read more

Couldn't decide where to go have lunch so we ended up at Amaro's Table. I think the last time we were here was over a couple years ago. The staff was so friendly and we got seated right away at a small table in the back. The restaurant was clean and had cute little flowers on each table. I love the gold mirrors they had on the wall near our table. They went well with the blue wall paper. The food has always been great every time we've been here in the past. I had the fried chicken with mashed potatoes and Mac and cheese. The chicken was so good, very juicy and moist. The mac and cheese was delicious, but the mashed potatoes were very plain and bland. My chicken came with a honey butter but it was too sweet for me. It literally tasted like caramel sauce, but my husband enjoyed it so I gave him the honey butter to use on his fried chicken sandwich. They have such a good menu, but a little pricey. We will definitely try to visit again sooner. read more
