Unfortunately, SNS has de-bondified nearly their entire restaurant except for the martini names, and prices on the menu.  So if you're looking to get a full James Bond type experience, it's not going to happen.

However, the food here was excellent.  The Yam fries came in a huge portion and the roast chicken I had was delicious.  The staff was also very friendly and welcoming.  Also, the bartender looks like a young Tina Fey.  Which I didn't say because she probably hears it 20 times a day and gets tired of it.

A "Bond-esque" restaurant in Yaletown with a thematic drink menu that will rock your martini world!  The prices are awesome with $5 Chilean wine ($20/bottle) that tastes nice.  The food is delicious.  The Flamethrower Pasta was not spicy enough for me but was a savoury dish.  I definitely will visit again to taste more of the menu as their tapas look scrumptious!  

The decor is modern with plasma televisions on every wall, funky background music and with just the right touch of classic photos, posters and memorabilia of the distinguished gentleman, Bond, James Bond.

If you don't like it shaken, get it stirred.  You'll enjoy it.

Smoked salmon stuffed inside an organic chicken leg... Double O Hell Ya!
I have got to give them some major credit for experimenting with such a wide range of flavours. They pull it off as smooth as Bond himself and mix up a mean Dirty Vodka Martini too. Pay the extra buck or two and get it with Ketel One or another tastier Vodka.
There's loads of flat screens about with sports or James Bond movies playing silently in the background.
Quite the view into the alley behind. It is a lot better than you would think.
I need to go back soon to test out the bartenders skills, and try another random menu item. This place is such a breath of fresh air compared to the rest of Yaletown next door.
