    Lobster bisque
    Gord K.

    Had a very good dine out meal at the lobby. All the dishes were very good using fresh local ingredients and interesting sauces and presentation. Overall a great place to go for a very good meal at a reasonable price. Also have a good happy hour so come early

    Angus Cheeseburger

    The Lobby restaurant has a great ambience and location, friendly and attentive staff especially the gentleman behind the bar that is also your waiter and serves you with a smile even when he is really busy. Their food however does not match their excellent service. We've ordered chicken pesto that was quite dry and bland as well as cheeseburger that also lacked seasoning. Probably better to only get some drinks next time. 5* for service 3* for food.

    Belgian waffles

    We were staying at the Pinnacle hotel and I decided to try their Lobby Restaurant for breakfast. I ordered their Belgian Waffles to go. Visuals were great but the taste was a disappointment. It actually tasted exactly like the premade strawberry Belgian waffles from Costco. The staff were friendly but I did not enjoy the food. Perhaps, if and when we return, we could try other items.

    Visited the restaurant twice-- once for dinner and once for brunch. Both times, the food was mediocre. The flavour profiles have potential, but every time, the food was just a little too bland. My favourite part of all the food I have gotten was the side of potatoes it came with-- granted it's hard to screw up potatoes. To be honest, the food definitely looks better than it tastes. I'd give it a 3.5 stars if there was an option to do so. Our waitress was super nice. She tried her best to be attentive and to do her job well, but she was probably a little newer. I appreciate the effort though! The restaurant is connected to the Pinnacle Hotel, located within the centre of all the fun + good places to eat! The exterior is of modern decoration and I love how you can go for a stroll along the ocean right after your meal. Verdict: it's nice if you live around the area because it's almost like a local spot where everyone who lives close by can casually stop by for decent brunch. But I wouldn't drive half an hour just to come again. It's nothing special, more like everyday brunch (although the price doesn't reflect that too well)

    Mimosa & Green Tea

    Beautiful views and nice staff! Our server was a bit too busy to be attentive, but a host came and helped us, So we felt attended to the whole time. The food was delicious and was Not greasy or bland!! Those potatoes... MMMMM!!!! The drinks were flattering the food we ordered, for sure! We had a Groupon for brunch for 2 and made a reservation the day before which worked out good... the restaurant was not full and we probably didn't need a reservation, but to be polite (like Canadians) we made one, as Groupon says you should! Saved $40, so it made it a grand adventure for us! If I lived in Vancouver, I'd go back, often!!!! - even without a Groupon!!! Parking garage in the hotel (was free with Groupon). Restroom was clean and nice n private!

    Came here for brunch on the weekend for their brunch deal on Groupon. The restaurant was fairly spacious and empty when we arrived and free parking for 2 hours is included in the groupon. We ordered the crab cake benny and the northshore breakfast, as well as a caesar and a mimosa. The drinks were great however the food was average. The benny came with nothing underneath the crab cakes which confused me since there's normally an english muffin or bread of some sort under them. There was also a strong jalapeno flavoring to the crab cake which overpowered the delicate flavour of the crab. The northshore breakfast is what you would expect and came with a selection of butter and spreads for the toast. However, the service was quite slow despite there being only 3 tables aside from us there. The portions are pretty big and we left with our bellies full. Though with the large selection of restaurants in the area, we're not sure if we'll be returning anytime soon.

    I chose to go to the Lobby for NYE as we were spending the day in North Van. I ordered the strawberry lemonade, and salad. My husband got blueberry pancakes and coffee. We enjoyed everything, and I really liked his pancakes because they aren't overly huge, and dry. They were soft, fluffy and flavourful! My strawberry lemonade wasn't too sweet, which I preferred. It had a good balance of strawberry and lemonade so one wasn't overpowering the other. My salad was full of cheese, so yum! I really enjoyed our meal here, however, I docked off two stars because our server was unhappy to serve us and she was talking to the people at the table right behind us about vacations and travels while we were waiting for her to help us at our table. We even waited 15 minutes to pay for our bill, and we didn't want to interrupt their conversation, so we just got off our seats and headed to the hostess' desk. And that was when our server realized that we were done eating, and we've been waiting to pay. I hope that the Lobby shows excellence in customer service in the future.

    Northshore Breakfast Canadian back bacon, potatoes, poached eggs and rye bread.

    Thanks to GroupOn, the boyfriend and I dined at the Lobby Lounge. Two brunches, two drinks and two hours of free parking at a reduced price and thus an excuse to try a new-to-us place? Yes please! As per instructions, I had to call ahead to reserve a spot for brunch and whomever I spoke to on the other end of the phone was helpful in her explanations (especially around parking) once I made the mandatory mention I was using the GroupOn. We arrived at the restaurant, parked and made the short walk into the lobby. The space itself was clean and bright with floor to ceiling windows on one side, and plastic partitions around all available seating. I thought the lounge was a little on the smaller side and there was a lot of pleasant conversation and talking. (It was by no means distracting or too loud, but if you wish to eat brunch and hear the background music, this is not the place for you.) After ordering a Caesar and Mimosa (brunch Happy Hour) the boyfriend picked the Rueben Hash while I eventually settled on the Northshore Breakfast. I cannot tell you much about the hash (menu says two poached eggs, montréal smoked meat, sauerkraut, potato lyonnaise, and hollandaise sauce) because the boyfriend gobbled it up, so it must have been delicious. Overall I was happy with my choice of poached eggs, back bacon, potato slices and rye bread (when given the choice I always go that). My only small complaint is that the rye bread looked to be one big slide cut into half when I had hoped for two. Yes, I like rye bread that much. From what I could gather, there were only two ladies running around taking orders and serving food at the restaurant. This resulted us in having to (understandably) wait a little longer at certain times, but they never forgot an order we had, or an ask (i.e. milk for coffee). Very much appreciated especially when I imagine how frazzled they must have been! Side note: I subsequently discovered the GroupOn did not cover taxes or tips, which given the food, experience and service, I thought was more than fair. I admit it was a bit of a drive to try the new restaurant, but between the GroupOn and our plans for the day, it was worth it. Would definitely go back if I'm going to be in the neighbourhood, or passing by.

    Beef Carpaccio
    Avneet P.

    Found this place on Groupon for their 3 course dinner meal! Regularly $92 and I got it for $70! We got to pick from 3 appetizers, 3 entree dishes, and 2 desserts. For the appetizer I had the Beef Carpaccio and oh my gosh, it was easily the best thing I've had. The Wagyu beef, the arugula, the toasted bread, it all worked together sooo well. For both our entree's we got the filet mignon - mine was cooked perfectly medium and came with some vegetables and some really good mashed potatoes! And for dessert we obviously got one of each! The creme brûlée was lemon and light and the chocolate decadence was indeed decadent! We couldn't finish the whole cake slice (the fact that we each got a dessert drink probably didn't help), but it was addicting. The whole meal was well made, our waitress was amazing and made sure our wine glasses were never empty, and the area the restaurant is in is cute and definitely worth the drive from surrey! I would definitely come back and probably get the same stuff again honestly cause it was that good!

    Crab cake Benny.
    Aqua M.

    Great food friendly service. $44 brunch for two come with one meal- one drink. Super great deal. Brunch: Crab Cake Benny: two poached eggs, house-made pacific crab cakes, hollandaise sauce, potato lyonnaise Back Bacon Benny: two poached eggs, back bacon, hollandaise sauce, potato lyonnaise Northshore Breakfast: two eggs any style, potato lyonnaise, country toast, choice of English bangers, hickory-smoked bacon or Canadian back bacon Pinnacle Omelette (GF): three eggs, sautéed back bacon, red peppers, cheddar, potato lyonnaise, choice of country toast Rueben Hash (GF): two poached eggs, montréal smoked meat, sauerkraut, potato lyonnaise, hollandaise Cocktails: Caesar: Vodka and clamato juice (1oz) Mimosa: Sparkling wine with orange juice (3oz) Cappuccino or Coffee/Tea

    Not as good as the last time we came. Food was good overall but service fell short somewhat…read more Came here with family. We all ordered our own individual dishes. I just had an Original Gimbap and a Vege Gimbap for myself. It was a hot summer's day so I just didn't feel like ordering hot food. Everyone else ordered hot food though. My daughter has been getting into Tonkatsu at Japanese restaurants for awhile now. So when she saw Chicken Katsu on the menu here, she decided to give that a try. It was just OK for her. No comparison to any of the pork Tonkatsu dishes that she's been having at Japanese restaurants. She still ate it all up though and it was a huge portion. Other dishes on the table included Seafood Noodles, Pork Kimchi Stew, Soft Tofu Stew, Fried Chicken, and Kimchi Fried Rice. My one gripe would be that they took a super long time bringing out my daughter's Chicken Katsu. Everyone else had their food for quite awhile but she sat waiting and waiting for her Chicken Katsu. When we asked about it, they said it was coming soon. But that's what they always say when you ask about something that's taking a long time to come, right? Wondering if they actually completely forgot about it and then put in a rush order at the kitchen when we brought it up.

    Great little neighbourhood spot for Korean food at lunch…read more I stopped by with coworkers and this place is a solid 4/5. Favorite item was the pork belly with kimchi. It's over fire on a hotplate/pan with the meat all around and kimchi in the middle. Perfect with rice or on it's on. The Japchae had plenty of beef and veggies. The potato noodles weren't overcooked and was a great consistency. The seafood tofu soup was favorful with clams and mussels. The raw beef was too frozen and needed to sit out longer. However, the flavor was still good, but I don't know if I'd order it again. The service was excellent and attentive.

Make sure you try the lobster bisque as it's one of the meatiest I've had to date; full of that shellfish flavour. The French onion soup is an eye catcher but the broth could use a bit more richness and flavour. Beef bourignon was suggested and I'm glad I took the friendly waitress' recommendation as it was a warm hug on a deep plate. I'd opt to swap for roasted potatoes instead of the mash but the mash does soak up all that delicious stew. The jambalaya is full of different proteins and if you're a fan of that, then I'd make sure to eat this perfectly cooked rice dish. I finished off with a banana bread pudding which was exactly that, banana bread in that bread pudding form; Personally I was hoping for bread pudding that was banana flavoured but it was still ooey gooey goodness. Burgoo should be packed to the brim with this menu for these prices and the friendliness of the staff!

Beautifully presented, overflowing with fresh oysters, chilled prawns, lobster rolls, caviche, and tuna tartar. Everything tasted fresh and ocean-sweet but the lobster rolls buns were getting wet and soggy from the plate to ice condensation - an oversight on presentation logistics. Wagyu Carpaccio: Melt-in-your-mouth perfection. The wagyu was sliced paper thin and had that rich, buttery texture you hope for.
