  Update - 12/22/2010

I recently got a message from the owner about a new chef (he's fancy, he used to work at places like Le Crocodile and Coast) taking over my beloved Raven so a group of us decided to check out the new menu (and make sure they hadn't messed with it too…More »

The boyfriend and I first came here shortly after moving to North Van as he had heard from a few people that it was one of the best pubs on our fair shore. We weren't disappointed.

It's definitely the type of place that has lots of regulars which…More »

I'd been intrigued about this place from when it was the Transcontinental. I never ended up going (though have had my share of Steamworks across the parking lot and it apparently had the same menu).

However! A friend decided to have her birthday…More »

Can you say strawberry and brie stuffed French toast? OH YEAH.

The only time I've really spent any time here is for brunch, generally with a large-ish group and it hasn't disappointed on that front. Because it's off the beaten track it doesn't get TOO…More »

I love, loooove Raglan's. We generally go there for Saturday brunch, 1) because everything I've tried is really good and 2) they serve free coffee on Saturdays (go for the press of cinnamon). Standouts on the menu are their burgers, the pulled pork…More »

So many servers, so little service.

Overall I do actually quite enjoy this place, but I always find that the service is both spotty and slow much of the time. We had two servers helping us out while we were there, but it didn't seem like either of…More »

Delicious German food plus extra full wine glasses plus a live band plus ballroom dancing? OK!

I'd heard from Miranda L. how amazingly awesome the restaurant at the Alpen Club was on a Friday night and finally got to experience it for myself a little…More »

The boyfriend has been bugging me for a while to try this place and we finally made it down this week.

We managed to come on a non-busy night (Wednesday), which was nice. First impression is that it's small, dark but cozy with a kitschy, dated vibe…More »

I adore seeing shows at the Biltmore. Even just walking in is an experience, as you descend the wide stairs inside the entrance and the room opens up before you... Red wallpaper! Circle booths! Old arcade games! Chandeliers! Animal heads!

They've got…More »

Having dinner at this gem was a fantastic way to cap off an afternoon at the beach, especially because it's so different from the usual South Padre fare.

Zeste is a combo gourmet market/restaurant with a huge wine selection and an extremely friendly…More »

The boyfriend and I ended up spending a night in Lander on our way out of Yellowstone Park and turned to Yelp to figure out the best, most inexpensive place to have a dinner/beer. Enter Lander Bar!

There weren't many people in there at the time, but I…More »

On a recent road trip with the boyfriend we found ourselves in Helena overnight and turned to our trusty travel companion, Yelp, to figure out where to have dinner. Riley's it was!
