As far as chain restaurants go I'd say this is one of the best. Sit on the wine room side and drool over the row of enomatic machines offering a pretty stellar line up of wines by the glass. The other day a few of us took a break from wine and the…More »

I went to the birthday for the fabulous Miss T and it was ok. The waiter was good, but not great. He got my first drink order incorrect. He also sent out others with drinks and food who didn't seem to be clear where things were going. Bloody…More »

I'll start with the positive notes which could be enough for some. Nice, friendly staff, big room that's good for groups, large selection of draught beer, it's in the Marine Building which is one of the most beautiful buildings in the city. I had a…More »

Recently updated lists from Luisa D.

Adventures in Portland (12) We went for the first time in 2011. We'll be going back and I guarantee the adventures will be even better!	Davie Street from West to East and back again (18) Davie St runs from the West End through the Davie Village to Granville to Yaletown. It's a diverse street with something for everyone. I've included a few places that run adjacent to Davie St.
My Kitsilano (57) This is where I live. These are the places in my neighbourhood	Let's Get Physical! (12) I eat therefore I exercise.
Top of the food chain baby! (21) You know what's better than being a vegetarian/vegan? Being at the top of the food chain! I'm a conscientious omnivore and these places do meat and seafood right!	Yelp's 30 Day Challenge (30) I came in late to the game but kept it up once I took the challenge
FTR - First to Review (35) Beat you to it! (not including Elite events and out of Vancouver FTRs)	For the Love of Fur Babies! (6) I love my pets. Here's where I go to get the stuff/care they need. I now order their food through http://spud.ca
My Yaletown (37) I work in Yaletown and these are the places I've checked out.	Ain't Nothing Like the Real Thing (12) Listening to your iPod's cool and all but there's nothing like seeing your favourite bands live!
