Westoak - Vancouver

The lively atmosphere features high ceilings and a somewhat club-like vibe, drawing in a crowd of late 20s and older. Our group thoroughly enjoyed the appetizers—Chinois Prawns, Truffle Fries, and Caesar Salad—and the main courses, especially the Truffle Mushroom Risotto and the Maple Soy Sablefish, which was exceptional. While the service felt a bit hurried, it was otherwise satisfactory.

We had a wonderful evening at this restaurant. Our waitress was fantastic and contributed to making our night a lot of fun. The food was quite good overall. My wife ordered the mussels and fries, and while the mussels were delicious, the fries left something to be desired—perhaps a refresher on how to make the perfect French fries would be beneficial. I did find it puzzling that there were three hostesses at the entrance; this seemed unnecessary and a bit of a staffing oversight. Despite these minor issues, we truly enjoyed our time here, and I would recommend this restaurant to others. It's definitely a great spot for people-watching!

The restaurant was busy and quite noisy. Although the Open Table reservation mentioned a smart casual dress code, I noticed several guests arriving in sweatpants, hooded sweatshirts, and baseball caps. There were some lively holiday parties happening, and members of those large groups were wandering around the restaurant with their drinks. However, the food was outstanding, and our server was attentive and courteous. The prices for the food were reasonable, while the drinks seemed a bit overpriced.

Monday night dinner was great. Excellent food. Everything tasted amazing. The waitress was spot on. She was pleasant, knowledgeable and very efficient. Highly reccomend the restaurant.

Came here for a friend’s birthday and we sat on the patio. Because it was a winter day, it was great because they ensured to set it up so it was warm enough for people. Service was wonderful… our server was great and she checked on us a few times as well. It’s not an overly large restaurant. Some spot in it can be a bit tight on walking space but overall gives a lively vibe.I tried the vegan gyoza and a rose sangria. It is a bit pricey to be quite honest for what I got in my dish $20 for the gyoza) and it was okay. I found the gyoza to be a bit bland but the sauce itself made it better. The drink was really good though. I really enjoyed that.
