    My husband and I came here on a recommendation for a "great place for a lunch date." It did not disappoint. Our server for both lunch and dinner were prompt, answered all my questions regarding gluten and dairy on the menu. Ultimately, my husband ordered a burger and I had a salad with a side of steak medallions. The flavor was fantastic, dressing not heavy. Everything in my salad was crisp and fresh. My husband said his burger is the best in the county! We loved it so much that we decided to come back for dinner with friends. I had steak, broccoli and truffle fries. It was delicious. The broccoli was large and still had crunch. The chimichurriy was bright and flavorful. But I think the star of the show for dinner was the pizza! It was top notch. Worth coming downtown just for that! Oh, and they validate parking in the parking garage. That's a nice little bonus.

    Our server Lacey was on top of everything. It was a busy night and she kept with it. The view of the river will be better once everything is built out in a couple of years. The Waterfront Burger was excellent.

    I love a lively, nice bar - restaurant vibe. This place had that . The view of the river is beautiful, nice outdoor seating. We were there about 6:00 pm and just missed happy hour. One fun drink our table ordered was the smoked old fashioned, great presentation. The appetizers were yummy and good portions . Nice flavor on each app and my favorite were the shrimp. Not too busy considering it was a Saturday evening so it was nice to get seated right away.

    Just happen to try this place this morning it was near our hotel. It is located in a boutique hotel on the Vancouver WA board walk. The boardwalk is nothing special but you do have views of the Columbia River. I ordered the steak and eggs and wife ordered y to be salmon Benedict. We not really enjoyed the good and the price was very reasonable for what we got. I would normally rate the good a 4 but gave them a 5 rating due to their service and how attentive and friendly our waitress was. I would definitely give them a try.

    This restaurant is inside the Marriott. It was quiet and cozy. The food was wonderfully seasoned and the waitstaff friendly! I had a cup of French Onion Soup, and a Ceaser Salad with salmon and grilled shrimp.

    A very nice option if you're looking for happy hour with a view on the Vancouver waterfront. Located in the AC Marriott, this restaurant has a better-than-hotel-vibe about it. A nice sized patio and a lobby bar area, in addition to indoor seating means there's something for everyone. We sat outside on a lovely fall day because why wouldn't you? Service seemed disorganized. But then our server told us she was new, so maybe she just needed some ramp-up time. She was attentive once she took our orders. We had the sangria ($14 on HH), the chicken skewers, the hummus platter, and the frites prosciutto. The sangria wasn't heavy. It was light and refreshing. I'm not a huge chicken thigh fan so I would have enjoyed the chicken more if it had been breast meat, but the sauce was good and it came with pickled veggies, hummus and pita bread (so, you don't really need the hummus plate). The hummus plate was interesting. Two slices of grilled baguette, pickled veggies and a few other veggies. I wasn't sure how you were supposed to eat the hummus. The fries were yummy! But I didn't think the prosciutto went with them; I'd leave them off, if the chef was listening to me. Servings were generous and prices were decent. I'd come back.

    Rigatoni à la vodka with grilled chicken.

    Lots of Gluten Free options, and staff is very knowledgeable! They have a celiac friendly fryer, which is not that common. The calamari was a bit undercooked, with some doughy and unbattered pieces. The batter was fairly bland and could have been seasoned a little better. Not necessarily an item I would recommend. The fish and chips however were well prepared, and salmon was the catch. Well cooked and not overdone. The rigatoni was prepared well; pasta, flavorful vodka sauce, and grilled chicken was fantastic. The garlic bread was perfectly toasted, and paired well with the pasta. Overall, good quality and options, especially GF. The service was excellent; from hostess to wait staff and you can't beat the views of the Columbia River and Interstate bridge.

    Crab cakes in honey mustard sauce with strawberry mandarin goat cheese and almond salad ($45)
    Alana C.

    3.75 stars. Ambiance is nice, with views of the water and bridge. The entirety of the restaurant is much smaller than I imagined. It is located right in the lobby of the hotel. There's nice nautical-like modern decor however, and there's plenty of spacing so you don't feel crowded from the parties next to you. I tried the crab cakes which were very tender. They were reasonably flavorful but nothing that aspired to be super memorable. The mustard sauce they sat upon was delicious. I also liked the salad was dressed in a white balsamic vinaigrette that paired well with the richness of the cakes. My child tried the "hand-breaded chicken nuggets" but didn't care for the tempura-like coating. She did enjoy the fries though. There were a diverse and tempting array of items on the menu which made it hard to choose from. My husband wanted to try their "Marry Me Chicken" dish but the server mentioned it took a long time to prepare so he went with the burger. It was rather large and he said it was pretty good. I like that they switch up a traditional bun for a herby looking ciabatta looking bun. The bacon also looked thick and plentiful. There were some type of small insect, most likely fruit flies buzzing all over our table unfortunately. They were trying to land on our food and drinks. Prices were extremely expensive, and parking was medium-easy as you park in the hotel garage and get your ticket validated during your meal. Not sure I'd rush to come back while in Vancouver but it was a pleasant visit nonetheless.

    Reservation made for 3pm on a Tuesday, not busy at all. Tori was fantastic; helpful, attentive, and efficient - but we never felt suffocated. Our table enjoyed some salads, sandwich and truffle fries. Everything was delicious, no complaints at all. BEST TRUFFLE FRIES!! The FLAVOR!! These are dangerously delicious fries!!! The desserts were great, and I appreciate the variety they offer! Parking sucks, & it'll cost ya like $5 for a couple hours.... Ambiance, clean & simple. Odd choice on the lights, they look like recycled silicone implants.

    I hate the meatballs which were very good. The restaurant is very small w/ minimal atmosphere. The hotel, where Ondus is in takes up the majority of the lobby if your looking for more atmosphere. Decent happy hour.

    We met some friends at Silver Ball Social Club a few weeks ago. We didn't know there was a brunch…read moreoption, and we had already eaten before we arrived, so I can't comment on the food. We got the "free play" wristband, which allowed us to play about 25ish classic pinball machines in the back room. Unfortunately, the skee-ball machines (my weakness) and the Godzilla pinball were in the front of house and not included. The wristband was a good value, and I found a few machines that I enjoyed. Overall: + Free play wristband + Over 21 venue + Good selection of machines - It was uncomfortably hot in the pinball room - no AC or fan. - One of the games didn't have a right flipper button, so the only option was to stick your finger in a hole, which weirded me out. - A few machines weren't working when I cycled back

    My friend and I popped in after having a few drinks down the road, and heavily craved the food…read moreofferings of this joint lol. We both have never eaten here before. We walked in, were greeted immediately, we ordered the corn dog trio (we chose captain crunch, funyun and flaming hot), smash burger, Nashville hot chicken sandwich with fries, and the deviled eggs. Captain crunch corn dog was phenomenal, I did not expect it to be lol. The other 2 were meh IMO, the Nashville chicken sandwich was not hot at all, but really good, so were the fries, and the smash burger was amazing!!! I personally did not try the deviled eggs so I cannot give my opinion on that It was a Sunday night and they were having karaoke, KJ was solid, but the vibe was awful for it, maybe it's because of the setup? Separation of KJ space and patrons? Idk, the people there just didn't seem into it. From ordering and food drop off the service was good, nothing over the top but no complaints. I'd go back for the snacks again!

    I met up with a good friend for a coffee catch up and we decided to extend our gathering into lunch…read moreand she suggested Pacific House. It was relatively quiet for a Thursday at noon, but the area is undergoing major street improvements which is likely to affect crowds. It was open seating and we had plenty of choices to choose from. Service was prompt and guardedly friendly. I ordered the nachos because, when faced with a choice that includes nachos, I always choose nachos. They were on the cold side. As I got deeper into the nachos, I encountered a grey, slimy mush which I scraped off and ate around. We didn't have the menus any longer and I couldn't recall if it had beans or meat. I didn't mention it to our server because I wasn't able to look at the menu until I got home. I realize now that was supposed to be the guacamole. I'm all for reducing food waste and I know avocados are expensive, but this was not the nacho dish I thought I was paying for and not something I would want to eat again. We split our bill in half and noticed that there was an additional credit card surcharge on each of our slips. It was not called out to us when the we paid and neither of us could recall seeing that charge specified on the menu, but we didn't look that closely. Considering the other positive reviews, it's possible we hit an off day, but given our experience it's not likely I will return.
