    Sliders
    Annie W.

    I had high expectations for this restaurant because it always seemed to be packed. However, after dining here I realized the reason why it always seemed "busy" was because the service was so slow, especially when you sat outside. When we were seated outside, nobody came to greet us. We had to wave through the window in order to get attention from a waiter and then actually ask to see the menu. Menu wise, this is a good place to go to if you're looking for cheaper drinks. I believe most cocktails were $10. As for the food, I had the sliders and it was so so. I probably won't be coming back.

    Nice spot on the corner of a busy intersection. It's a quaint corner cafe with a middle eastern flair. They offered a varied menu and I could smell the curry. I had a mushroom burger and we had a pita & hummus plate. The gentleman who waited on us was polite. There's a happy hour too 3-6.

    Salmon Egg Benedict! Satisfied
    Christina C.

    We were looking for place with LOX Benedict and Coco Rico was right across the street from our hotel. The other places served pork benny and both me and my husband we dont eat pork .I found this place on yelp previous evening. Place doesnt look attractive from outside and I saw a lot of people were shy to come-in and they ended up leaving so I do recommend them to work on that. The place was empty because it was Thursday and only 1 girl was working there. We ordered 2 coffees and my cappuccino came with chocolate syrup on top. Egg Benedict was good just an English Muffin was hard a bit. I do recommend to change ketchup container our was no name and came out from freezer. I do wanna know what Brand of ketchup I am using. Otherwise its look sketchy. The next morning we ended up going there again because place was affordable and overall we were satisfied first time. Next day other girl was there but she couldn't manage alone because there was many people. So we had to wait longer. Second day my coffee came without chocolate on cappuccino and coffee was cold. Benedict was the same with little hard English muffin. Overall place isn't bad but they need some improvements. But price is equal to what you get. (Blue horizon restaurant charge $12 CAD for Benedict and extra $5 CAD for salmon per person) Overall my goal was to eat salmon egg Benedict and it was good.

    Wings option in the middle of downtown. Parking is available on the side streets, and on Robson after 2200. The venue consists of a smallish bar area, and 2 patio areas outside. The wings are advertised as 49c each, but a drink must be ordered with each dozen or so. In other words, it can add up really quickly as one cannot simply order a pile of wings and 1 beer. Something to keep in mind. With that said, the suicide ones have a pretty good kick to them. Looks like this place is a decent choice, but there are plenty of alternatives in the direct vicinity.

    Nachos with cheese at Coco Rico Cafe on Robson Street. So delicious.
    Wanda H.

    Best nachos in the city! There must have been half a pound of cheese on them! They were so good. It spoiled us and we won't be able to eat them anywhere else now. They were delicious, a whole meal.

    Fruits gone dry and rotten. Sorry to share this...

    Came here for breakfast...oh, bad idea! There was only one server and 11 table tops then the bar. She's running the floor and another guy in the back doing all the cooking. We ordered the pancake with sausage and egg Benedict platter. I originally ordered my Benedict with fruit bowl, and she ended up giving me hash browns instead, then my husband's breakfast sausage tasted funny, because it wasn't cooked thoroughly, top it off the fruit bowl on his order had gone bad but yet they still serve it, which came with some fruit flies along. The server didn't seem to care about the problems, she never came to check on our table or even bother trying to fix the problems. Not sure how this place is still surviving, but the only good thing is their hot water, tea packet, honey, Tabasco sauce and the tomato sauce.

    First thing I see--- bacon cheese burger $13.99 with lager. Second I notice is the Wings on special. It's also a bar! Frequented by a diverse group. Come and dine with generally affordable food like Pasta's and comfy food. This place has been here for years. (not sure if they're the original owners) and you won't get surprises eating and or drinking here. If you look at some of the older reviews like Mike P's There is a point to existence for this place. It's all about the neighbourood and good deals on the drinks and food. No Frills. I gotta get back here for another meal. Service is ok. Food is ok. but I'm giving it a Yay I'm a Fan rating. Don't ask me why. It's just something you get a feeling for or don't. Typos's writted free of charges.. Me likey the wings.

Before I start grab a complimentary port or scotch or sherry. Then let's take a tour. Ok. It will be short tour. They just have a few rooms.

This is also where you hang your key when you leave the house so they know who is here. We got the Under the Apple Tree Room which was spacious and nicely decorated. It even had its own private yard. Also has gas fireplace, jacuzzi style tub and stand up shower. The heated bathroom floor was a nice touch. If you get tired of your room you can also enjoy sitting outside on a deck or the living room. We really enjoyed relaxing on the couch back in our room in front of the fire place. Morning came a bit too soon. Was hard to get up out of the super comfortable down blankets on the King bed. The breakfast was ready though and included three delicious courses. Polenta with almonds, banana kirsch, and smoked salmon with poached egg on toasted croissant. Yum.

Service was good, friendly. The restaurant is the same as I recall, clean enough. A little cramped and the seating isnt too comfortable. Its really not a good place to hang out for a long time, but rather sit down, eat, and get out type of place. I had the lavender latte and the Tagine this time. Ive had it before and at least its pretty consistent. Ive tried several other things on their menu in the past too, all pretty solid 4/5. Nothing standout as so amazing to deserve 5 stars, but consistent and tasty. I did have a reservation which they charge $10/person for, purely for donation to a charity and does not contribute to your meal at all, and also nonrefundable. While I find this somewhat annoying, I dont blame them for doing this from a business standpoint. They always have a lineup so there is no shortage of customers for them. There is no reason they need to deal with the headache of a ton of reservations. On the flip side, they honoured my reservation in a very timely fashion and I bypassed the line, so props to them for doing that part right. If you have to park, then you may find street metered parking or use one of the nearby paid lots.

These beds and pillows were some of the best hotel beds/pillows I've ever slept on. We all slept so well! We also ordered room service for breakfast and everything was so good, with reasonable room service prices for the amount you get. Didn't use the gym, but it's recently renovated and beautiful. They provide iced water infused with electrolytes and there are even Pilates machines! There's also a heated rooftop outdoor pool that we didn't have time to take advantage of too. Not only is this hotel amazing, but it's in a prime location to everything - especially if you're a first time visitor to Vancouver. It's super easy to hop on the shuttle to the suspension bridge, or take a sea boat or hop on the subway to/from the airport. It's also walking distance to Gastown, Robson Street, Stanley Park and the Seawall. Highly recommend this hotel if you're in the city!
