I'm NOT going to talk about the pizza.

I got into Goldie's and had a great time, with a great…More »

Consistently rated the most romantic restaurant in Vancouver, this is a gorgeous little "house" a block above West Georgia, above the White Spot/Westin Bayshore. It has burnt down and been rebuilt twice now, i believe.
