We had a great brunch here. The mushroom tart was good and the grapefruit juice Mimosas were awesome. Very attentive and friendly service.
Came here with my Valentine's date--we made a reso ahead of time and sat on the sofa. Just an amazing time with excellent food and service. The Afternoon Tea set is varied, thoughtfully designed, and really filling. Well worth the value. Thanks for such a lovely time, we'll be back someday! ❤️
Good and tasty hotel restaurant. On expensive side, but the food quality is good. They have good cocktails menu as well. I really liked their lobster risotto. The restaurant is typically not very busy during lunch time, but they require a deposit to guarantee your reservation. To be honest, most times reservation is not necessary. Solid 4 stars restaurant
Highly recommend the carpaccio & pan seared scallops! Intimate ambience, attentive & friendly staff, great interior decoration. There was a lovely pianist playing during dinner. Great for smaller groups or dates.
Kinda boring, dim and lacking character. Cheap drinks, but where do you hire your bartenders? An old fashioned IS NOT made with Southern comfort. The wings could have more flavour. This place is soooo loud and u can't even hear the music. Our server was lovely. She should work somewhere better than this dump.
I recently visited Zoomak with a friend during lunchtime and ordered the unagi lunch special. The portion size was generous and the service stood out with its exceptional quality. However, the food's taste fell short of expectations. The fried chicken was cold.
Food was great, the restaurant had an authentic vibe. Servers were prompt and friendly. Reservations are definitely recommended. Beer was cold and the skewers were all tasty, there wasn’t one that we didn’t like. Will return when have more time to explore other items on the menu.
Love coming here for date nights. Going again very soon! Service is good, food and drinks are amazing. I feel very welcomed when I come here. It’s a bit expensive depending on what you order but some of the more expensive items are worth trying at least once 🤤. I also love the vibe of the place. Super cosy and unique. Cant wait to go back!!
We come here every time we visit Vancouver and get a great meal each time. Sushi rolls are delicious and the desserts are amazing. Service is very warm and friendly as well. It's definitely on the pricier side so it's more of a special occasion restaurant but you get your money's worth
Spectacular premium location and amazing view to the ocean.
Service was good and staff are nice.
Food is average and not as good as atmosphere.
Paid parking is available (~$4 an hour)
Prices are reasonable.
Surprisingly tea was not anything special at teahouse.
To be fair went there for brunch and not sure about dinner and lunch dishes

A pretty neat experience, with a great atmosphere. The raviolis with their pesto creamy sauce, mushrooms and tomatoes were -amazing-. I also had the roasted duck with its truffle mushroom croquette. Duck was however a bit too cooked compared to my neighbour's, so quality of food may vary.
We had a 10-people group and dishes did not all come out simultaneously, which could have been better.
I did not try any of the drinks but my co-workers enjoyed the signature cocktails.

Great food and vibes here. Salmon Oshi is always hit and the Brussel sprouts with beacon was perfection…we even ordered seconds. Only gripe is we came for dine out only to be told that they participate during lunch only. A little odd to us but we were already there and made the best of it.
Tried their dine out breakfast, salmon croissant, and two of their hot chocolates from their hot chocolate fest. All so delicious!!
The place was lovely to sit in and had large beautiful windows for natural light.
I am sure it’s not typical but my waitress was entirely impossible to find. It was very slow that morning and every order or need I had to flag her down.

I cannot recommend this place enough! Everything in the high tea set tasted wonderful, the atmosphere and interior design was so pretty and cozy & the service was ABSOLUTELY THE BEST!
Well prepared Japanese dishes that are fresh and great tasting. Innovative use of ingredients and well prepared sushi results in a satisfying meal.
Did not dissapointed! Went with my husband on a Saturday for lunch time to celebrate my birthday. Delightful food specially the clam chowder, crab cake, vanilla creme brulee and chocolate cake. Needs to mention that the chocolate cake came with a candle as a treat for my birthday, it was a nice detail from the restaurant. Loved the atmosphere and great views of Vancouver. Our waiter was attentive since the beginning until the end of the service. I would like to return at night to experience a different vibe and food options.
Was in there with my friends and got the best service by the ginger server Gigi. After all end up meeting the really cool lad Jack and the other girl name Kat that had a really strong accent. Would always come back and recommend for everyone. I love the skate vibes and the beers are deadly. The music was on point. Lovely night.
The food was good but I feel like the price does not justify it. $12 for 4 pieces of sushi is steep. The ebi oshi was good but it was mostly mayo. Our favourites were: champagne roll, ebi fritter, and sable fish. Would not recommend the eggplant nigiri, just got it because we were curious. The chutoro and scallop nigiri were also meh.
Service was not great. No one was rude but everyone felt disingenuous, especially our server. He did his role, but with [what I perceived as] disdain. It made me uncomfortable and put a huge damper on the night; I dreaded every interaction with him. Everyone has their days but this is not acceptable at a restaurant of this price point/calibre.
It’s been years since I’ve been here and coming back reminds me of why I haven’t been back. Nothing is amazing and the service doesn’t help.

Wow! My husband and i took my mom here for her birthday and we had the best time!! We requested a table next to the window, and that's exactly what we got. we had a beautiful sunset view while we ate in the back quiet part of the restaurant. It felt very private and special. The food was amazing and our server was super nice, attentive and made the night special for her. We would for sure come back!
Came in for Sunday Football and had a great morning. They have a full breakfast menu and Mimosa Towers for $35. Big group of people in the football pool it looks like cheering on their teams. Look forward to checking out their happy hour!
So happy we stumbled upon this gem! The vibes are awesome, staff are insanely friendly and attentive, beer is a 10/10 and the food is out of this world. Literally no complaints!
We had the poutine, garlic bites and a pizza and everything was fresh and delish! Definitely coming back

I have been looking for a place where there is live Rock music for a long time and I always see this pub, I had never been and yesterday was my first time. I had an incredible time, I highly recommend the classic Mojitos, the beer at its peak and the extraordinary wings. It is worth mentioning that the waiter Andres treated us wonderfully and recommended just what we needed. Very happy to have shared another experience....Thank you
Food was amazing, great place to go on a date. View was phenomenal. Service was excellent. Our server was so nice. If you want to try this restaurant out, make sure you get a reservation, it’s the best way.
My family is still very COVID cautious because I'm immunocompromised and my parents are elderly and high risk, so it has become really hard to have a special evening out at a restaurant. Seasons was recommended to me as having an open air covered patio with plenty of heating, even in the winter, so we decided to go there after plans at our first choice of restaurants didn't work out.
We could not have been more thrilled with the experience. The food was all outstanding, the view was beautiful, it was warm, and totally open air (and uncrowded, as most folks aren't eating outdoors in winter). Our server was also absolutely fantastic, they had a great sense of humour, knew the menu well, and were very responsive. I wish I had gotten their name - they are a total star, I doubt they're paid enough! And they had a lovely manicure, to boot.
I'll admit that I was kind of biased against Seasons in the Park because I know of way too many places that secure a location with a good view and then coast on that, letting that be their entire selling point and letting food and service go by the wayside. This place is the total package, I was really impressed. We will absolutely be back.
Thank you for making my mom's birthday a really special night!

Complete with silent movies and the cream of the crop, Strathcona residents. Lager good. Pizza very different.
We went for dinner around busy holiday season. The waiter was super nice and attentive, recommended good cocktails.
I had What the flower and my partner had Me Time. For food, we ordered wagyu beef carpaccio, grilled octopus, kurobuta pork chop, and black pepper crusted salmon.
My favorite was the pork chop and grilled octopus! The salmon wasn’t my best taste because the soup was quite sour. Overall the food quality was really good and interior was really nice! I would come back again 😊

I’ve been going here for years. Excellent food and great service. Food and service have been consistently amazing.
New years eve dinner. No dedicated parking have to park almost 3 blocks away. Only a few set dinner choices. $85 for two courses only. Appetizers and Prime rip VERY average. parts of it was so raw getting very hard to chew. $20 for kids menu and my kid picked tomato sauce spaghetti. Portion is small and she only took a few bite and would not like to finish it. Servers doesn't look very happy to work today as well.
Definitely not worth the price and I can totally have much luxury experience in downtown Vancouver with the same money spent. I'd NOT recommend this place and I'd NOT come back again.

We arrived at 515pm. We picked a patio table that had a view of the garden. Unfortunately, The roof of the patio section we were seating started to leak. We moved beside the leaky roof. Our appetizers never did arrived until after 30 minutes. The server realized and apologized for the delay. The appetizers arrived at 625pm. We practically devoured the appetizers because we were hungry. I told server that we have tickets for festival of lights at 7pm. At 640 pm our main course arrived. We practically nibbled on our pricey meal and packed the rest to go.
My concerns: I get it a lot restaurants are hurting. The service could have been better. So far, The location and convenience is the only thing making this establishment wonderful for me.
The food : We avoid the fish dishes because it was not fresh at all. We ordered meat dishes as a 2nd option. My daughter had the beef stroganoff and she said it was too salty. We did not want to make fuzz as we are all ready pressed for time.
I would like to try their breakfast or lunch for 2nd opinion. I expect more because I am paying more. The appetizers are delicious, but keep in mind we’re terribly hungry at the time.
Suggestions: I came at a worst time maybe ? But for a restaurant not to be busy? That is bad sign for the restaurant.
Food need to be fresh ? You can’t hide frozen stored fish.
Service could be more organized. The appetizers are delicious: the maple bacon Brussels sprouts, Calamari, and truffle fries are winners.
I find a lot restaurants are cutting costs. But I am hoping this restaurant don’t go to far were the food does not met expectations.

Second time visiting. Amazing food. Even more amazing cocktails! Atmosphere is surprisingly peaceful/comfortable for a crowded and lively place. Great service both times. All-round 5-stars for me.
The katsu don is a bit salty, otherwise things are good. Staff are really nice and helpful.
Remind that the dishes are quite small, so you need to have a Don or Ramen to fulfil your stomach 🦦
Anyway, quite good quality!!🫶🏼

Our friends invited us to this restaurant, I really enjoyed our dinner here tonight. Food was great and the service was amazing. Especially our server Chip he was so nice and made us feel very welcomed. By the way the view here is really worth seeing.
Went there with a group of people.
Attention was ok; portions (main course) were very small so some of us left hungry.
The restaurant itself was very packed with people; waiting time for drinks and food was still ok.

Perfect place for some good food and great atmosphere. Cosy and livley enough to still have a quiet conversation. Good for meals with friends and family. Even for small business dinner. The waiters are all great and fast in explaining the menu and pairing with drinks. It is highly advisable to make reservations. Even though you might get some seats at the bar if no reservtion is done
Which is actually a really good place as the bartender is very attentavive and lovely to talk to.

We had a Team Lunch here. I personally knew the Owner Chef, Bobby for a long time. We had to try this location as Chef bobby opened a new restaurant here.
Oh yes. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 Victory for Chef Bobby again. His recipe has the SOUL. yo! 🤩
It's been ages since the entire my crew gathered, but my previous member visited us to say hello in a long time. so I wanted all our team members to have nice lunch at Zoomak.
Chatting about the current status at this gorgeous place, we wrapped up a delightful and delicious lunch on this beautiful day!! 🥳
The Chef Bobby's menu is always a winner! It was fantastic meeting Chef Bobby again after so long! And that cold noodles (냉면) ... seriously, so delicious it's almost a crime 😭 Lunch menu is also great choice!
If you haven't been, everyone should check it out! Go once, go twice, keep going until you've tried everything on the menu! Plus, they have a variety of drinks at the bar – extra bonus points!!!

The high quality and freshness of ingredients at this restaurant are obvious from the first to last bite. Amazing food!!!
The service is formal yet friendly and welcoming. Our waitress was very knowledgeable and helpful.
We went for an early dinner so the restaurant wasn't packed and we appreciated that. Definitely going back!!! 😋

Honestly, I was disappointed with this experience. I had been looking forward to try the tasting tray for weeks, trying to find a day that I could be there early. I arrived just after 11, and already it was iffy as to whether I would be able to try the tasting tray (tip: get there early! They only serve 4 of each kind every day). Luckily, I was able to get the last short rib. The service was not great, but not bad.
The tray took a little while to come out, which was fine. However, the rice was over cooked - it was like the last dregs of the rice from the pot. It seems that all the trays came out at the same time, so maybe I was just unlucky. The food was good, and I really wanted to try a range of different Korean dishes (why I was excited to experience). However, while I was eating the waitress would take away the little tasting bowls, even if I had not completely finished (maybe not enough little bowls for all the trays?).
The restaurant is very pretty and dishes are very nice. However, it soon became very noisy. People were trying to talk over the loud pop music. Didn’t really match the calm, comforting decor.
Overall, I would say go if like me you wanted to try a little bit of different Korean dishes, but don’t get your hopes up.

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Zoomak, a Korean restaurant that has left an indelible mark on my culinary experience.
Despite being fully booked, Zoomak managed to accommodate us within 15 minutes, a testament to their commitment to customer satisfaction. T
The food and flavour journey at Zoomak was nothing short of extraordinary. The menu offered a wide array of Korean delights, and each dish we ordered exceeded our expectations. The Tteokbokki was a perfect blend of sweet and spicy, the Japchae was a delightful tangle of savory noodles and colorful vegetables, and the Korean Fried Chicken was a crispy, succulent masterpiece. The tartare was a refreshing and flavorful surprise, showcasing the chef's skill in crafting diverse and authentic Korean flavors.
A standout highlight of the evening was the in-house flavored soju. If you enjoy a good drink, the soju options here are a must-try.
The atmosphere here was vibrant and welcoming, emanating positive vibes throughout the restaurant. Laughter and camaraderie filled the air, creating an ambiance that added to the enjoyment of our meal. It was evident that Zoomak is not just a place to eat; it's a gathering spot for those seeking good food and great company.
I want to extend my sincere gratitude to Terry, who went above and beyond to organize a table for us despite the restaurant being fully booked.
I must also apologize for forgetting our server's name, but her excellent service deserves recognition. She was attentive, knowledgeable about the menu, and added to the overall enjoyment of our evening.
In conclusion, Zoomak is a hidden gem that deserves all the accolades it receives. If you're a fan of Korean cuisine or looking to explore new flavors, I highly recommend Zoomak.

My friends and I went here for a 3 course brunch. It was delightful. Every server was Amazing and Friendly. The atmosphere was aesthetically pleasing. I love the food. I would rate 5/5. I would come back to try the dinner menu. Compare to their other partner restaurants, this is the best fairmont restaurant that I went to.
I’ve been here about 3 times. Great atmosphere. I wish they gave out the teapots with warmers / candles to steep the tea properly.
Not ideal for large groups. 4. Max 6 people.
Expensive for the quality.
Clean bathrooms and cozy space!

The service was amazing, they even remembered your name throughout the whole dining. I was here for brunch and it was great experience. However, the food can be better, it was nicely presented but I didn’t enjoy the medium rare steak. The coffee smelled good but they can do better, it was ‘watery’ for me.
Excellent all around. Friendly, efficient, knowledgeable top notch service. Special shoutout to John our server. My Miso sable fish was fantastic and my colleague states the steak Diane was excellent. The cocktail menu is plentiful and with variety. The atmosphere you are surrounded by the beauty of Stanley Park and inside is warm wood tones. Parking is free after 6 for the restaurant. Highly recommend. $$$$
Awesome microbrewery with a great vibe to it. Beers were delicious with a good mix of your classics (Lager, Pilsner IPA etc) and some more experimental flavours too. I had the Mac n cheese which was delicious. Staff were fantastic good knowledge and happy to give tasters to help you decide which beer to have. 10/10 would recommend :)
Great little cafe.
I was a bit sceptical about it at first as there was a bit of mix up where I got the wrong order and then couldn't get the attention of any of the wait staff... But it was very busy at the time so I don't blame them for that.
However, They were incredibly helpful once I pointed out the issue to them and were quick to get the right food out to me.
The wait staff were all friendly, helpful and just wonderful.
The food was fantastic. Decent portions and not badly priced . (The potatoes are excellent! )
I would gladly go back to this spot and would recommend it

I did not expect that the beef deep will be good, but the beef deep was amazing. You gotta try when you visit here. The server was nice and they have lots of flavour of hot sauce 👍👍 also dont forget to add cheese 🤍
Next time wanna visit here again definitely :)

Comfortable spot nestled inside stanley park. We sat in the patio area, the atmosphere was beautiful . We had brunch (delicious food) with Champagne. Moreover, The service was quick and the staff was friendly. Such a pleasant experience.
(P.S. I just wish there were more vegetarian brunch options)

Very rundown, they really need to maintain the restaurant.
Also food was really really bad. I got chicken and waffles and it tasted like freezer food.
My friend got the salmon egg benefit and felt like her food was too fishy. No good taste really. Save your money and tastebuds.
I was tricked by all the good reviews!

Utterly adorable and genuinely super cute and fun. A lovely place for an afternoon date with a tasty selection of little bites (I'm going to be thinking about that turkey pesto sandwich for a hot minute) and my tea never got cold.
I attended a work dinner with a set menu. I had the Caesar salad, tenderloin, and chocolate cake - everything was very tasty. I also tried two of their mocktails - the mango one is pictured and I also had the raspberry lemonade and both were delicious and festive. I've been to two events here and they really take care of you. Plus, the setting and view can't be beat. Great experience and service! Thanks, Barry and Alejandra!
Service here was super welcoming. Shocking for such a high end area. Especially for how they treat people of color. Impressive. Food was really good, overall the menu has things other restaurants do but everything is served and made meticulously, you can tell there’s a lot of effort put into everything. Servers are friendly and flexible. Good experience and the atmosphere is welcoming too!
We arrived shortly before the kitchen was closing. Although a bit rushed to order, the food and service were wonderful. I had the tuna tartar, two half rolls, and the sable fish (omg good). The fish was so tender and flavorful - it melted in my mouth. My husband shared the tuna and had tenderloin as well. He LOVED it. High recommendation.
Me and my wife went to the Bellaggio Cafe in Hornby Street on a Friday evening.
They have happy hour from 3 to 6 PM every day.
We tried their Hugo and Lavender Lemon cocktails.
The taste was excellent.
We also had their truffle fries. The quantity was good enough, and the taste was delicious. Even though most of the restaurant was empty, we were seated alongside the other patrons.
Overall, it was a good experience .

Was in town for business and attended here twice. Must say the wings are amazing and also "the burger " combo was awesome. The service was wonderful, never got the girls name that served us but Andres was a great guy and very happy to talk too. If in Vancouver you won't be disappointed eating here and it's so close to the waterfront for AMAZING sunsets.
Thank you for great meals and a great couple nights.

Oh Bellagio… you are a sweet as the maple syrup you serve. The ambience is unique and comfortable, the food was quick, delicious and smooth on the eyes, check out the French toast with fresh fruit..yummy! Eggs were fried just right as well. Thank you, we’ll visit again soon and strongly recommend others to do so as well. Ciao!!
Superlative food experience, perfect friendly service, and positive atmosphere. The wagyu-truffle was *outrageously* delicious. It normally comes as 3 pc's, but they increased it to 4 so our party could each have a bite. Every roll was delicious, the unique press-and-flame style they are known for enhanced the already flawless quality. Dessert was a standout out too, we couldn't get enough! And if you need a delicious libation, you can't go wrong with their specialty unfiltered sake. Truly a wonderful culinary and social experience to share with friends, every aspect was phenomenal.
Breakfast was good. Wasn’t too noisy or crowded. The food took a little long. The staff was nice. A little pricey for breakfast.
It's really amazing that a pub restaurant in one of the iconic corners of this city can feel so authentically Vancouver after all these years. As a young man I always said that the Bayside Lounge (next door) was my favourite place in the city. Back then, the Park Pub was known as Checkers and was more of a traditional standing room pub than the restaurant that it is today. Recently I found out that the Bayside Lounge is operated by The Sands Hotel which also operates the Park Pub and they share the same kitchen so since then I have been coming here and really owe this establishment a positive review.
The newly renovated interior and restaurant atmosphere plus menu, kitchen and service staff are casual, friendly and attentive without pretence. As far as value goes, for what you get here, you won't believe these prices exist Downtown! Come Find out!

While the food was average, the breathtaking view and reasonable prices made it a worthwhile experience. The menu offered a variety of dishes, but they lacked that special something to make them truly memorable. However, the real star of the show was the panoramic view of the surrounding landscape. Watching the view while enjoying a reasonably priced meal was a delightful experience. If you're looking for a budget-friendly dining option with a stunning view, this place is worth a visit.
Get the flight! Good place to hang out and try out all the beer. The pizza was very good also.
Dog-friendly patio with delicious beer and pizza. We started with an order of poutine that was loaded with delicious gravy and perfectly cheesy curds. The beet salad was so fresh and light on a warm day and the margarita pizza was lovely. The crust had a wonderful flavor and was cooked to perfection. All of the beers we had were light but very flavorful. Would definitely visit here again.
Had a wonderful experience on Saturday for brunch. Had lobster eggs Benny and raspberry mimosas. Portions are fair, price is fair, the view is beautiful, the staff is so friendly and the restaurant is gorgeous. Can’t wait to return.
Shout out to Noura and Regan for their friendly and warm service.

Pleasantly surprised at the quality and value-for-money here. Got the 3 course lunch menu and left very satisfied.
The steak was tender and flavorful. The cake was quite substantial and rich. The creme brûlée had hints of citrus in it.
The mushroom soup was lacking a bit tho. A bit bland, had to add some more salt and pepper to it myself but couldn't really help it.
Service was very good and the views are amazing on the patio.

Can’t say enough good things about our time at Botanist! We came for our wedding anniversary and had a beautiful card and champagne waiting for us at the table. The hostesses were very courteous and our server, Chris, was amazing. He thoroughly explained different menu options to make sure the experience was catered to our tastes and checked on us often from the appetizers through the main course to dessert.
The atmosphere was wonderful. We sat in the semi-outdoor seating area near the bar with beautiful foliage and piano playing in the background.
One thing to note: be wary of the bread—delicious and so tempting to keep eating it but save your appetite for the main course and you won’t be sorry. Tagliatelle, poached halibut, and king salmon were perfect along with the raspberry pavlova. Also enjoyed our drinks: “What the Flower” and “Needed Escape”.
Would definitely recommend!

The place used to be a classic choice for Japanese izakaya skewers, but the quality now is disappointing. The rigid service and mediocre taste of the food really don’t interest me. The only thing that might pique my interest is the price of the alcohol in the store.
Every time my parents come to Vancouver they make sure to have at least one meal in this place. It's a very nice cafe with really great food and friendly staff. Their location is fantastic, just a few steps away from the Fairmont Hotel, Art Gallery, and Pacific Centre. I've tried different plates over the years, but we were there for brunch a few weeks ago and the food blew my mind. We ordered virgin spritz, the Avocado toast, a salmon-avocado croissant and a chicken sandwich. All three plates were DELICIOUS! The potatoes had a wonderful texture, the poached eggs were perfect (not too runny and not too dry), the salmon felt fresh, and the avocado portion was generous. I honestly cannot wait to go again.
I've been looking for a good sports pub. This place is amazing, the food is really good, the staff is very friendly and approachable, and the vibe is different from any other pubs I have been to, everyone is cheering and enjoying the game. The pub has some activities during the game and screens everywhere, which makes it easy to watch the game. I will definitely come back to watch more NFL games.
Very worth the price! Our server was Simone and she was excellent. The shiitake mushroom nigiri was a hit and delicious. The wagyu truffle oshi and the kaizen soba peperoncino are each a perfect combination of many flavours. The botan ebi nigiri had a perfect balance of seared flavour and sweetness. I have not had a better ebi fritter anywhere else. 10/10 would recommend and come back.
Brilliant food, incredible service. Took care of my allergy needs with tremendous attention and knowledge from the entire staff and made our group feel incredibly welcome.
I came here for breakfast because of Google recommendations, I was seated by the hostes, I ordered my breakfast which was English breakfast tea and avocado toast. That was first time in my life when I saw fried potatoes with my avocado toast, food was playing and tasteless even after adding salt and pepper. There's just one egg on avocado toast. Some ingredients on avocado toast wear uncooked and it tastes like a uncooked mushroom. This place is definitely overrated and I won't come back here again.
New fav place! Brought my mother here for afternoon tea as a birthday gift and we were both incredibly happy with the experience!
Recommend getting a reservation as this place is popular (for good reason).
Beautiful cups and saucers, quiet relaxed environment, big tea menu - something for everyone. The food for the tea was varied and all was delicious!! They even gave us a little baggie of tea leaves (the same mom had enjoyed) as a birthday gift. Will 100% be coming back again!!

We tried to have lunch here, but on a Monday they were out of meatballs and salads and the poutine was sadly wayyyy too healthy (thus way too un-poutine). Other than that there were many beers, they are open early, beer tasted super fresh, they have craft sodas available and the seats are comfortable.
Beautiful location in the park and such a pleasant surprise. We were on our way to the airport, stopped and ended up having dinner. French inspired cuisine. Delicious lobster bisque! We didn’t have mains, only entrée. Set in a lovely cottage garden setting. The house which the restaurant is in has a lovely character and charm.
Have been to the same Izakaya in Toronto for many times. First time visit this one in Vancouver. The atmosphere makes me feel like in Japan. Friendly service (well served by Takashi San through out the whole dinner), food standard was same as Toronto restaurant, like the charcoal grilled skewers. Right price for the food quality and service.
I loved this little high tea spot! I went here with a girlfriend for my birthday brunch and we had the Afternoon Tea. The food was delicious, of course they’re bite sized and packed with tremendous flavour. Highly recommend checking out this gem! Super cute, great service and beautiful atmosphere.
Today we star
This is my favorite place to go for high tea! I have tried a couple of different ones recently and I must say this one is the best! The portions here are pretty good, but I do wish that you get both the savory & sweet scone and not one, because it's delicious and I'm a pretty big eater 😅 I will be back every time they do a menu change.
The picture I posted is from their Spring menu. I love how every item tasted freshly made, nothing was soggy or lukewarm. This was very apparent to me at some other high tea places with their cucumber and egg salad sandwiches, but Adonia has gotten that down pat! All the cold items were served cold and all the hot items were served warm. All the items that were baked stayed crispy. The lemon dill shrimp salad was fabulous. The scones were warm in the center and crispy on the outside. It's nice to go with another person so you can split your scones. Each person gets 1 (savory or sweet)
There is pay parking out front but if you don't mind walking, there is lots of free parking in the side streets. Definitely make a reservation ahead of time, it is a very cosy space and you do not want to be disappointed by just walking in.
I would 💯%, 10/10, 5🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 recommended this place!

We order a bunch of stuff, meat is flavorful and cooked to perfection! Maybe a smidge too salty but no complaints! Portions are small for the price but hey they r rlyyy goooood! The seat we sat at even has the call server/bill button which I loveeee!
Very few great breweries have good food, starthcona is for sure one of them! Their craft beers are so good and their food does not fall short! Big fan of their kale salad and their pizzas are good too.
Breakfast wrap is good.
Coffee also very good.
Coffee also very good.
Highly reccommend this high tea place. I had their regular Autumn tea set and it was delicious. Scones were warm and flavorful and I loved everything served (which is usually rare)..could not find one thing I didn't like. Bonus points for matching tea sets, very aesthetically pleasing.
Very small restaurant, but beautifully decorated and the service was great.
Planning on making seasonal visits to try all their specials for sure.

Seasons in the Park gave my girlfriend and I an excellent dining experience for our date night. Neither of us had been here before and we were both very impressed with the views, food and the service. Our server was amazing and insisted to take photos of us during the sunset, which was such a nice touch to the experience.
We will definitely be coming back here again in the future. I highly recommend anyone come here for dinner and try to get a table on the patio by the fire place, it was absolutely splendid.
