    Bar (long side looking from the portion of establishment near the pool tables)
    Kirstin N.

    My goodness!! Where to even begin!! ?? #1TOP PRIORITY bathrooms SOOO very clean!! Wishing there were more stalls (and perhaps there were, I didn't ask) If you're a pool player, you'll be wondering why this hasn't been your getaway into a sea of 7' #Diamond pool tables covered in Simonis championship cloth, with bonus 8' and 9' tables! Writing this, I am nearly drooooling (not over the tables though!!) I had seen two separate Facebook posts advertising this establishment that made it appear as though the Saloon and Billiards area were maybe two separate entities maybe under the same roof.I visited yesterday before a tournament at another location as a reconnaissance mission of sorts. See, I'll be playing on a team at Silver Star beginning next week. I'm a self-described ambivert, so to eliminate the anxiety of trying to remember all new names, get my bearings, AND demonstrate the team made a good choice selecting me, I needed to eliminate one part of the "new-ness," ( think: being the new kid in middle school before knowing anyone). Now, I am a natural blonde, and have experienced a complicated entry into a "secret bar" back in the midwest where patron watch the vestibule captured with CCTV as the door person requests the hopeful entrant to do silly human tricks as the bar giggles and commiserates over a drink when finally enter. I entered the vestibule which clearly "open" and located conveniently very near the single disabled parking spot. Through the vestibule to a second door labeled "lLounge,". Mercy-me if I saw no pool tables when I had predicted (and was informed of) a great number of pool tables. Didn't see 'em, thought I may have missed the pool hall section entrance,...I fortunately do not embarrass easily, because I tried 3 other sets of doors that I thought just *had* to lead to my billiards nirvana. When I went back to the initial entrance and walked through the "Lounge" doors, laughing at myself, I INSTANTLY felt at home!! Very lovely bartender Annie fessing up to the value in entertainment revolved around confused pool addicts trying to enter. A few patrons joined in , introducing themselves and immediately helping me to feel relaxed, part of the group, and I'm in love! I didn't eat there but Annie made a great drink, I noticed a few people off-track horse race betting, a wall of electronic dart boards and 2 dart boards for steel-tipped darts. Dart leagues were about to begin, not very many pool players were there at that afternoon hour, though I'm sure weekends are packed. Ed runs a 9-ball tournament every Saturday night, though May 11th, there will be a memorial tournament honoring a pool player in the Vancouver community who had passed away. If you go to Silver Star and are bored, then just shut your pocket and leave the vibe fun and friendly. There's something for everyone: pinball, 2 separate jukeboxes (two sets of speaker systems), so be care when choosing your jukebox from the TouchTunes App. There are bar stools, chairs, small & larger booths, and sections that give me the impression that even on a very crowded night, nobody would be tripping over one another. I noticed their menu features breakfast until 4pm, for a night owl like me, that just doubled my love for this place!! Definitely a place I'll be proud to play for, and perhaps one day I'll be allowed the opportunity to become a marketing partner with! BLOWN AWAY!! 6/5 Thanks for your service, Annie! Tell your Dad, don't change a thing, (except maybe adding a couple restrooms, unless there already are and I just didn't look for nor see additional water-closets) If there's just one women's and one men's restrooms, the line must get quite long at large events ‍

    Stopped in here for a beer and a shot (or few) with my buddy. Great service. Tons of pool tables. Lots of room for activities. I had the bacon burger with tots. Pretty tasty. I hope to try their nachos on my next visit. Kind of western themed (I'd be surprised given the name if they weren't) They offer horse track gambling (Atleast they were when I was there) Great staff. Great selection of beer on tap. They have Boneyard IPA. That's always a plus.

    So this place has all the pool tables in the city! Well you would think they have over 15 tables. They take quarters which is nice and 50 cents a game. What a deal. This place came recommended from a fellow Bartender at Wild Fin on the waterfront. It has a nice jukebox that has a variety of music! Oldies and more! The prices of the drinks and food were reasonable. I had a great time here. Not to mention the Bar Staff was super nice! I'll be back to play some pool, have a cocktail and some munchies the menu looked good. As I didn't eat when I was here. I do like how spacious it is! Until next time!

We loved Amaro's Table, another restaurant in the company, but Cecilia had a few glitches. First of all...we loved Hanah. She was very friendly and engaging. We don't know if it was her or the kitchen, but our food took too long. When it arrived it was beautiful. Two people had the Benedict and I had the Dutch Baby with a side of sausage. Both were excellent. But, I still don't understand why the accompanying maple syrup is served cold, and not heated?? Regarding the benedicts, the eggs were borderline hard. One person felt the hollandaise was too salty. The coffee delivery was very slow to one of the patrons. The restrooms and the general appearance of the restaurant was also perfect. We were surprised by a complimentary plate of donuts since it was our first visit to Cecilia. These were hot and very fresh. I noticed the tables around us remained dirty and were not bussed. Even if you don't plan to use the tables again, they should be cleaned and set-up quickly. It was just ok, and not a restaurant I will rush back to.

Nothing happens fast there but the servers are doing the best they can to keep up. If you go in knowing this- you'll be ok. If not - you're likely going to be frustrated. We feel like they train their employees very seriously and they reflect it in their assertiveness, demeanor and appearance. We arrived at 6. Got drinks at 630. Appetizers at 645 and food shortly afterwards- maybe 7. Overall very reasonable considering how packed it was. I can't even imagine what the kitchen looks like with all this going on. The only complaint I have (tho it was free!!! So I should not complain) They gave my wife this big banana split for her birthday- but it was after we had all eaten our dessert and were miserably full. So.. I guess I spent an extra $24 dollars on hers and my desserts that we'd been able to split the split had they timed it. Anyway they gave us a nice personal card for her. Pricing and the timing the only reason for less than 5 stars. But likely next visit will be 5. Over all loved it and will be back.

I would like to comment on the visibility of this location. Since it's tucked away and a spa is in the front I didn't see it and had to turn around. Consider additional flags to add to where you're at because GPS tells us it's right there and it's not RIGHT there. I decided on fish tacos and I couldn't taste the fish. It felt like I was eating cole slaw in a soggy crispy taco shell. Consider deleting this item or improving how you make fish tacos. Too much greens and mayo where you can't taste the fish. Overall food, service and ambiance was okay.

My partner's burger was ok (you can get a better one at several different restaurants in Vancouver) and my "Aztec" salad was extremely underwhelming. It consisted of romaine lettuce (majority stem and very little leafy greens), thin tortilla strips, a tiny amount of avocado, tomato, a tiny amount of black beans and corn and came dressed in a chipotle dressing. There were no jalapeños or cheese in sight and you REALLY had to search for the black beans, corn and avocado, as there were barely any. This reminded me of a taco salad you would order at a Dennys or other cheap diner where you are expecting to be underwhelmed, yet the price tag for this salad was nearly $19 and didn't even have any protein unless you were willing to pay another $6-$12.50 for it. This was literally the worst taco salad I have ever had and it's a pretty simple dish to mess up. You can get a much better quality taco salad with adequate avocado, black beans and corn that also includes pulled pork at Seize the Bagel for $10.50. Maybe for drinks and the view this place is great, but don't waste your money on their overpriced and underwhelming food.
