Made resos for 12:30 and were told we could only order brunch. I ordered the SHAKSHUKA (Two baked eggs, spiced tomato pepper sauce, feta, basil oil, parsley, cilantro, grilled sourdough) and a side of their breakfast potatoes! The potatoes are amazing!! Do not skimp on it! The Shakshuka was a pass. The tomato sauce was flavourless and watery. Chunky but no real flavour. The cilantro and parsley were long stems if it so not easy to eat. And to be honest, I didn't taste the cilantro. I don't know how but one of the eggs were undercooked which was icky. The feta was sheep feta which is not my fav. The grilled sourdough was great. The dish was below mid. Location is convenient and service was good, but the food was just ok.

Tables were moving in and out pretty quickly. I was really happy to see a $10 appetizer section. Tried the mushroom caps and risotto balls and loved them both! They also have a great cocktail list. Was definitely not expecting for a live magician to be there! He walked around and performed tricks for each individual table, how fun!! The daily events they have and the speakeasy ambiance make this bar truly stand out as a gem. Prices are quite reasonable as well.

The food was also really good. The Burlesque dancer and games night made for a fun and lively atmosphere. My only suggestion would be to include a bit more entertainment (only 2 dances) and slightly fewer games, but overall it was a wonderful experience. I would definitely recommend it and would happily return.

My first time here was amazing but I went again for Sunday brunch and this experience was…read moredisappointing. They have 1 girl working behind the pastries counter and only 2 servers in a packed restaurant. The pastry girl greeted us but the servers were so flustered that I had to flag them down to tell them I had a reservation. My first time here I loved the girly decor but this time all I saw were dirty dishes on the table. The servers looked stressed and one girl even dropped a tray full of glasses. There was a long wait to order, get our food, and get our bill. My friend ordered the pork belly eggs benny and it was as delicious as last time. I ordered the truffled mushroom frittata and it was nothing special. It was mostly overcooked eggs with mushrooms and a slice of toast that tasted plain. I told the server it was my friend's birthday and I wanted something special for her. Last time I ordered creme brûlée and they put sparklers on it and "happy birthday" with icing sugar. This time their dessert options were all brunch items: tiramisu French toast, chocolate French toast, hot cakes. None of them sounded appealing and they brought out vanilla ice cream in a small bowl and presentation was pathetic. This place has gone downhill, will not be returning.

I love Australian cafe's. The food is great, and the…read moreatmosphere is chic. Ruex delivered both of these things. The food had a twist of creativity in both the taste and the look, satisfying your palette and your camera. And just like in Australia, their coffee was good but super tiny. Our favorite dish was the peaches and cream hotcakes. Very refreshing. It also had some cream cheese, so it was sweet and savory. Their chicken on their waffle was very nice as well, but their waffle was a savory waffle. Which took away the pleasant combo of sweet and savory. But still very good. I would just order more friend chicken next time. well cooked, crispy pork belly too mmm. Price was decent as portions were generous. Service was friendly, and the food took a moderate food amount of time. We went at 2pm to eat brunch, so hoping that it wouldn't take longer during more peak hours. Parking is a bit of a hassle as it's underground parking. A bit of a trek to come to the restaurant, but I think that's the norm now in greater Vancouver area. Sadly the norm is also paid parking with no validation. But I won't dock off points for the restaurant for that Their menu rotates, so I would love to come back and try something new.

Oh, and they were all super friendly. I guess management changed a few years back and so did all the staff - now I'm surprised when someone even acknowledges my presence, let alone asks me how my day is going. Pricey, like most beer and wine stores, and has a small selection. I tend to only go here if I happened to be in that neck of the woods and it's ten minutes to 11pm so I don't have time to go anywhere else. The bar could be good, but honestly I've never felt the need to go check it out.

Italian food? Yes please anytime!…read more This restaurant has been on my radar and I finally got around to trying it. I had the vegan penne and the vegan chocolate cake Firstly, I love that they have vegan and gluten free options. That's amazing and not something you often see at an Italian restaurant (atleast in my opinion). Having said that, I just found that the vegan penne lacked a little bit of flavour - I actually had to add a bunch of chilli flakes and salt that was at our table to add more flavour to it. However, the vegan chocolate cake was amazing and very delicious! The overall ambiance of the restaurant is cute too and I love that they have an outdoor seating area - perfect for the summer months facing the water. It's worth a try if you want simple Italian food, and place your try once and then move on.
