Stumbled upon this place via Yelp (thanks fellow Yelpers) when we were in town for a cruise. So…read moreglad that we found it as the establishment was a gem. The owner and staff were so welcoming / made our dinner even more special. Restaurant has classy, modern, and hip decor. There's also a bar area for drinks. We had several of their pasta dishes and all were very good. Nice selection of wines, which we enjoyed with our meal. We had a large party (9 people) and they did a great job of serving us - meals came out quickly and efficiently. They really added to the specialness of our group vacation.

The Monday pasta special is especially worth trying, and the happy hour options make it even better for a casual dinner or catch-up with friends. Great value, delicious food, and just the right portion size for light eaters. Definitely a spot I'd come back to!

We got seated at the bar where we got to see all the action. We got various drinks where the bartender made an impressive show while making the drink, and the flavor profiles are fairly unique. I don't remember all the drink names but the one that I really enjoyed that I got was the Lovers which had in house made gummy bears and was fairly fruity. You won't be disappointed in any drink here! Service was also amazing as water refills are consistent

Came to check out this brewery and absolutely loved everything from this spot…read more We tried 8 different beers, and every single one was great- fresh, and unique flavours like pina colada, cherry cola, and even pico de gallo! We also tried tacos and burritos and they were so good! The Tacos tasted like authentic street tacos from Mexico- highly recommended trying them! The guacamole 100/10!!! I also Loved the white and blue Talavera-style ( Mexican style tiles) through the space- such a beautiful touch. Oh and the staff were super helpful! We'll definitely be back!!

The cold brew coffee beer was hands down my favorite so I hope they carry it all year round as it's not just a spring/summer beer IMO. The chicken tacos were quite good too - lots of flavour. They had a couple of seats outside where you can keep your dog, but the place is quite small and does get busy on evenings and weekends. This is my new favorite brewery in North Van. Can't wait to come back!

I didn't realize the restaurant did sushi platters and oysters - what a pleasant surprise! The oysters were delicious. For the sushi I've definitely had better, but was still impressed that the restaurant had this kind of platter available. Portions were really big and among the dishes, the miso cod was a big standout with great flavour and texture. I also enjoyed the matcha tiramisu dessert as it was not too sweet. The staff were very friendly and attentive to replenishing drinks. I believe some of the drinks were made specifically for the event so I'm not sure if any of the ones I had are on the regular menu. However, the drinks were delicious and the 'Ryujin' especially was my favourite one (the glass with dragonfruit garnished over top!) It was fruity, sweet, and deceivingly tasted like tropical juice. I would like to return to experience the restaurant on its own sometime. In the meantime, it's an excellent spot for private events!

Caught up with a friend recently and we chose Parker Rooftop…read more The oysters were a definite improvement -- 95% shell-free, a huge step up from previous visits. We ordered earlier in the day, and the shucker was clearly alert, taking the extra steps to ensure a clean finish. Truffle fries were indulgent and perfectly crisp, though the garlic aioli was milder than I prefer -- almost like straight mayo without a punch. I skipped the sushi wrap, sticking to my traditionalist ways, but my friend enjoyed it. Brownie bites, complimentary as they were, were a disappointment. Lacking enough fat and possibly stored improperly, they tasted a bit stale -- a shame, because how does a brownie not taste good? Our server was attentive and charming, swooping in at just the right moments for round twos and top-offs, which made the experience that much smoother.

My husband and I have been enjoying speakeasies as they make date nights a bit more fun. We were…read morevisiting Vancouver from out of the country and were recommended Laowai by some friends, so we made a stop by to try it out. We arrived on a Friday night around 8pm. We only had to wait about 10 minutes or so before being called in! The speakeasy is very quaint and to theme. I loved the fun menu book which featured lovely art and was very informative in providing details on each cocktail. We ordered the chicken and chive dumplings along with our cocktails. The chicken and chive dumplings were pretty good! I would order them again. The drinks were creative and their flavor profiles were definitely unique. Overall I loved the atmosphere of Laowai, it's very laidback and inventive. The only issue I experienced was with service. It was a bit difficult to flag someone down for questions or to put in orders. So we spend a good few awkward moments just looking around hoping to make eye contact with somebody. Also, our server Leena came to clear our dumpling plate and spilled the sauce all over my husband's jacket. She did apologize and provided us with two shots on the house. However, this was extremely disappointing as we packed lightly for our trip and were visiting from out of the country. We had to ask for wet napkins to try to soak most of the sauce out of the jacket and try to save it. We did still stay since it was already a bit late and I wanted to try more of the menu items. I'd give it a 3.5 star experience.

This time, my husband and brother came by to visit me after work, so we headed over to take advantage of their Happy Hour which runs every day from 2:00 PM-5:30 PM & 9:00 PM-close, plus ALL DAY Monday! It's a massive location with two full floors of seating and stunning waterfront views. Our server was awesome and gave us the absolute best recommendations for our table. We fueled up on an epic spread: - Tap Snack Burger & Fried Chicken Snack Burger: Perfect bite-sized, flavorful burgers to kick off the meal. - Hot Honey Calabrese Pizza: The ideal balance of spicy, savory, and sweet. - Maple Bacon Hot Wings: Crisp, sticky, and packed with flavor. - Truffle Waffle Fries: Absolutely addictive, a must-order every single time. - Sour Cherry Lemonade & Pink Lemonade Slush: Super refreshing and the perfect Happy Hour treats.
