    If you love PB as well as bacon, plus fresh ingredients and a home-pressed patty! PB & Bacon Burger with perfect, crispy fries!
    Sanders M.

    Cozy diner environment, family owned. Fresh ingredients, including mushrooms and hand pressed burger patties; substantial slices of bacon; brioche bun. Friendly staff. The owner came to check on us to ask how our meals were. Great experience for my two times there. The clincher both times were the crispy fries!!! How do they get it perfectly right?! I had the "good messy" PB & Bacon Burger this past round. Very reasonable prices for meal these days. Definitely a recommended visit. Unfortunately they are closed weekends, and they close 6pm Mon to Thu, and 5pm Fri, catering to the local offices and schools. Paid parking at building lot or curbside on Terminal Ave.

    I really wanted to love it... So after some recommendations from some trusted foodies and fellow Yelpers we decided to give To Dine For a try. The space is fairly open with adequate seating. We were in the area for a photo and video shoot for several hours and noticed it was full most of the day. Obviously it must be popular. The food. They have a variety of inspired burger offerings as well as some Korean fair. I decided to try the PB and Bacon Burger and the rest of my posse tried various other burgers. Although I thought the food was good I wasn't overly impressed. The descriptions sounded decent but the actual execution was just slightly under my expectations. The burger seemed preformed and possibly frozen (not the end of the world), the bun was very soft but the peanut butter was too overwhelming (your saying "that's what you get for getting PB on a burger" I know lol). If they just used an unsweetened version and about 50% less I think it would have been excellent. In any event, the rest of my table seemed to enjoy theirs so maybe I just ventured from the norm too much? Would I go back? Ya probably if I was in the area again. Should you give it a try? Definitely worth a shot. In the end I just kind of "liked" it.

    It was tasty. I eat peanut butter pretty much everyday with my steel cut oats. Occasionally, I'll have a satay skewer with peanut sauce. Occasionally, I'll have tan-tan noodles done with peanut sauce. Here, I finally tried a peanut butter bacon burger. It was pretty delicious. Home made patty, with crispy bacon bits, peanut putter lettuce tomatoes, red onions and a side of fries. I would eat this again no hesitation even though it was kinda messy. Friendly owner, with a cafeteria setup. I came on a Saturday looking for a late afternoon lunch. The place was empty except for a table of 4 Korean ladies. They do have other things such as sandwiches, soups, etc, and a Korean rice bowl. That said, I'm coming back for the various forms of burgers that they have.

    To Dine for is located close to Terminal and Main and it is a popular spot for people who working in the area to grab lunch. I believe this restaurant is a Korean Fusion. We came here for department lunch and if you do have a large group I do recommend reserving and ordering in advance as well. This place gets really busy at lunch with all the business and schools around the area. The servers were pretty nice they had our reserved table ready and the food came out really quickly since we pre-ordered. I ordered the Original Korean Rice Bowl for $13.95 and it contained rice, spinach carrots, pickled radish, cucumber, seaweed, marinated beef and a perfectly fried egg. I am surprised how much I like it. It was really delicious will all the different flavors and textures. I do wish there was more beef but overall it was so tasty. This also really filling and it is a healthy option. They are also known for the PB burger and the Korean kimchi burger. I do look forward in trying those items.

    I have to say this place does have really good burgers. Its a hidden gem. I ordered the PB Bacon Burger. The burger was really juicy. I did find the burger a bit small or maybe I am too hungry. It came with organic salad or fries. I chose the salad and the salad portion was quite big. The only issue with this place is that it closes at 6pm. As well it is located beside a gym. So while, I was eating I as constantly hearing thumping noises. Things started to shake a bit too but I don't mind. I find it quite memorable though. The place is not busy during dinner time. Like I said its a hidden gem. Probably people don't know about it yet.

    To Dine For Eatery is a nice small family run burger joint located at 333 Terminal Avenue in Vancouver. You can pay to park alongside the road in front of the restaurant. The interior is that of an old school 50's diner with some small modern touches. The owners are so nice and helpful. They have great pastries and coffee drinks, their burgers are absolutely amazing! On this visit I ordered the Classic Cheese Burger with a poutine, the burger had a 6 oz homemade patty with cheddar cheese, lettuce, onions, pickles and their special house sauce. Everything about the burger was spot on. Perfectly cooked patty and the toppings were fresh. The poutine wasn't your typical cheese curd poutine but I still loved it, the gravy was flavourful and the fries were crispy, I would definitely get it again. All in all it was a great lunch and if I ever find myself in the area I will surely stop in and try another spectacular burger! I highly recommend giving this place a try!

    A leap & a hop behind Central Station, this place serves up 'comfort food with a heavy Korean influence' Its diner menu is a trinity of delicious offerings, many of which can be tweaked to vegetarian/vegan standards: 1) stick-to-your-ribs items - grilled mac & cheese sandwich, pulled pork poutine 2) Korean spins on breakfast & lunch staples - Fiery Pork Egg Benedicts, The KimChi Monster burger 3) traditional Korean dishes - Original Korean Rice Bowl (sounds like bibimbap!), Jap-Chae noodles On this day, I opted for a burger. And it was a doozy. The PB & Bacon (peanut butter, bacon & bacon aioli) w/ fries, $11 - saw this combo on DDD once & gagged. Then again, satay sauce is peanut-based. So..WHY NOT! - PB: melted & creamy w/ nutty bits for textural pop. Have a napkin or a 100 ready! - beef (6 oz hand-made patty, fresh daily from Jacksons Meat & Deli): quality tastes oh-so juicy & soft. - brioche bun (from a Swiss bakery): yields to the bite yet sturdy enough to handle everything in between. - bacon: PB may have stolen the aioli's thunder, but the bacon bits were crispy bombs! - handcut fries: looong thick shoestrings, majorly tasty & crunchy. My tongue was fighting my brains out over the flavour combo. But, it was oddly compelling to eat! I dug it. Definitely not for everyone but don't knock it til you've tried it either. Service - eager to please with the doting touch of a family-run place Space - funky orange-black room makes for a comfortable hangout for both solo diners & groups alike. Who knows, this place just might fill that COMA-shaped void in my stomach!

    Bob's Burger

    I see the sign in the window every time I ride the Skytrain. "Best Burger in Town" it reads. So today, after visiting the Vancouver Flea Market, I was on foot, so I decided to try this place. I was tempted by the PB & Bacon Burger, but i wanted to see if the plain burger lived up to the claim. I decided on "Bob's Burger". A 6oz homemade patty with cheese, bacon and mushrooms. Along with an ample serving of tomato and iceberg lettuce, topped off with a house sauce that had a little zing - all between a perfectly toasted bun. It was quite a handful. Boy, was this tasty! the hamburger was so juicy and the mushrooms and bacon didn't disappear. I had the fries...the fries...you know, nothing beats house-cut fries. you can taste the difference. perfectly crisp even until the end of the meal - now that's a good fry! There are other reviews that say that the offerings here are too pricey. Let's just say that I'd rather pay $13.95 for the burger that I had here than pay $8-$9 for a burger meal at the golden arches. They provide good honest food here. The service is impeccable. I will be back to try the other offerings on the menu - the guests at the other table were enjoying Eggs Benedict - perfectly poached eggs! Definitely worth a try if you happen to be in the area - I would even venture to say that To Dine For Eatery is destination worthy.

Ive had it before and at least its pretty consistent. Ive tried several other things on their menu in the past too, all pretty solid 4/5. Nothing standout as so amazing to deserve 5 stars, but consistent and tasty. I did have a reservation which they charge $10/person for, purely for donation to a charity and does not contribute to your meal at all, and also nonrefundable. While I find this somewhat annoying, I dont blame them for doing this from a business standpoint. They always have a lineup so there is no shortage of customers for them. There is no reason they need to deal with the headache of a ton of reservations. On the flip side, they honoured my reservation in a very timely fashion and I bypassed the line, so props to them for doing that part right. If you have to park, then you may find street metered parking or use one of the nearby paid lots.

    BEST BREAKFAST POUTINE!!…read more As this was my first time visiting Canada as well as the first restaurant I visited during my stay, I had a lot of options from the menu. I also wish I knew the name of my waiter but he was extremely knowledgeable when I asked him about what was popular. He broke down the menu of all the popular items from each section and gave me a fantastic recommendation. I decided on the el camino breakfast poutine and subbed out the pork carnitas for hardwood smoked bacon and it was INCREDIBLE! The amount of flavor and variety of flavors was absolutely delicious. I find that even though I am back home now, I still think about having that breakfast poutine. It was a nice mix of sweet, spicy, and savory between the roasted pineapple, charred tomato salsa, pickled jalapeños, and salsa verde. The bacon and potatoes were nice and crispy too! Not only will you find the best food here, but the views are unmatched too. If you get there early, you can enjoy your breakfast by the window or on the patio overlooking the marina. It was pretty quiet and peaceful and I would love to experience that again. Service here was also amazing! I had another waitress help me and I wish I knew her name too but she was also just as attentive and helpful. Thank you OEB and can't wait to be back sometime in the future!

I was meeting a friend here yesterday who's visiting from California, and when deciding on a meeting place, we realized a bunch of the Gastown coffee roaster places were closed on Sunday, so I mentioned Breka , knowing it was opened 24/7. (LOVE this!). Plus, this site is close to Waterfront Station, and my friend had a busy day planned, taking the Seabus to N.Van and doing a lot of sightseeing. So this Breka was perfect. I was there early at 10 am-ish, and from the outset, I was impressed: exposed brick wall, long counter and display case, fully stocked with the most beautiful pastries and tarts and cakes, and lovely looking sandwiches, too....Just lovely. I ordered a tea from the guy taking the orders. At the check-out, the woman working the cashier was the most unfriendly, aloof person I have ever encountered at a Breka. She was downright dour. Never looked up, never smiled, said I owed X for the tea I ordered, gave me a receipt and said I was "number 3", no "thank you" (despite my saying thanks!), nothing. She looked really unhappy and bothered to be there. (I sat at a nearby table, waiting for my number to be called. I saw her interactions with all the people behind me - and there were quite a few, as it got suddenly busy in the cafe. She was cold and unfriendly to everyone in line as she rang them all up. These are mostly tourists! Why have a dour, borderline-hostile woman at the check-out counter of a busy cafe in a touristy part of our city? I just don't get it). Anyhow, I waited 10 minutes to hear my number called, but I never heard it. I walked up to the take-out area and there was my tea, on a receipt that said "number 3". Did they call out my number? I honestly don't know. I was seated at a table a few feet from the area and listening for my number and I didn't hear it called. I was not impressed with this set-up. Not at all. My friend arrived and got a chocolate concoction which looked amazing, and he loved it, so there's that. I still love Brekas but I probably won't return to this site. Between the cold experience at the cash and the prolonged waiting for my order (a cup of tea!), and not being sure if my order number was ever called, it just all left me with a bitter taste in my mouth.

    I have to say, I was seriously impressed with this Sakura-themed high tea…read more Came here for a birthday treat thanks to a friend, and it ended up being such a great experience from start to finish. The service was warm and attentive without being overbearing, and the food? So much of it. We actually had to take some home, which almost never happens with high tea. The pastries and sandwiches were not only beautifully presented, but also creative and well-executed--nothing felt like filler. You can tell there was real thought put into the menu. The space itself is elegant and charming, making it perfect for a pre-spring outing, a catch-up with friends, or a low-key celebration. Would I come back? Absolutely--especially for a themed menu like this.

    We stayed at the hotel and had free breakfast and some dining credits. This review will cover food…read morequality and service without considering the price since the meals were included. Service - 9/10. Everyone we interacted was very kind and helpful. We especially enjoyed our time with the bartender who was attentive to our needs. Smoked salmon bagel -- 9/10. This was really good and fulfilling. The smoked salmon tasted fresh. Avocado toast -- 9/10. Solid avocado toast which paired nicely with the salad and poached egg. I ordered some bacon on the side for some additional protein Berry french toast -- 4/10. I found this to be dry and lacking in flavor. I wouldn't recommend this. Wings -- 6.5/10. The wings were just ok to me. I personally prefer when my wings are already separated. Flavor was good for the first bite, but got tiring after French onion soup -- 5/10. This was my first time trying french onion soup, so I could honestly just not like the dish, but I thought it tasted awful. At the end we just had chunks of cheese Chocolate cake -- 8/10. Super rich and decadent. A great dessert option if you're looking for something to end the meal!

    Second time here, and while the food is very good, the fantastic service is what stands out the…read moremost. But first, the food - I ordered scrambled eggs, chicken apple sausage and paid an extra $1 for truffled lemon potatoes. The verdict? 4 out of 5. I'd ordered the eggs "very soft" and they verged on medium-firm. They still tasted good. I'll gladly pay extra for the truffled potatoes next time. My husband ordered the salmon avocado benny. While he loved the tomato soup he chose on the side, he was less enamoured by the benny itself. I had a taste and was underwhelmed by a forkful of overripe avocado and slightly fishy-tasting salmon. We finished with an order of beignets which despite being freshly-fried, were bland; although the accompanying strawberry sauce was deliciously tangy-sweet. Onto the service. This place spins like a top, and I mean that in a good way. Although we came at a peak time, all front of the house staff we encountered -- from the hostess to our bubbly server, to the smooth manager -- struck a perfect balance of being in flow, working flawlessly together, and maintaining light conversation with us. Exemplary. 5 stars out of 5.

    Tasty!! We just got…read moreoff of a cruise and were looking for somewhere close for breakfast and stumbled across this place near our hotel. We were having gorgeous weather in Vancouver so we decided to eat on the covered patio. The place is pretty cozy, but was only moderately busy when we went. They have a pretty good menu with lots a Benedict's and a build your own breakfast option that seemed pretty nice. I took the recommendation from our server and got the bacon benny. It did not disappoint. I think I have recently discovered that I love poached eggs and these were perfect. The yolk was nice and runny and the white was firm but not hard. I like to cut in to my egg and have it run down and get messy on the plate. The hollandaise was excellent. So many breakfast places will serve it broken, but not here. It had the perfect amount of lemon, butter ratio for my taste and I really enjoyed it. The bacon was good, not to salty, and the english muffin was, well, an English muffin from a package that they toasted and out on the plate. I did splurge and paid the extra dollar for the truffle potatoes and they were very good. I love truffle oil on potatoes so I am a sucker for it whenever its on a menu. You just cant mess it up. Fried potatoes, truffle oil, and a lemon squeeze to bring it all together. My wife got the brunch burger and she loved it. It was a messy breakfast burger that a lot of places have but this one was done right. A poached oozy egg, on a burger patty with american cheese, the best burger cheese in my opinion, bacon, hollandaise and arugula on a brioche bun! It came with tater tots and they were nice and crispy just like she likes them. Well, why didn't I give it five stars you may be asking? Great question. Here it is, each plate came with a side that was just awful. Mine had some "fresh" fruit that nearly made me laugh. It consisted of the saddest, limpest piece of watermelon I have ever seen this side of a trash can. I also had an old crusty orange wedge and a single grape. My wife got a slimy side salad that I think was holding on for dear life. Both, we deemed inedible and moved on immediately. I think there is a rule, or at least there should be one, in restaurants that if you wouldn't eat it then don't serve it. There might be another one that says if you eat rotten food maybe get a different job and see rule one. Overall, we liked the place and would go back. We would just avoid the salads and fresh fruit and stick to the food they cook.
