I agree with the rating on this place. The service is awesome. For being a Mac store and for being in Yaletown, I thought the service will be questionable. But each and every time I come here, they always seem to appear genuine. No up-selling or…More »

S O C I E T Y baby! This is where you can find "diner-style comfort food" with a twist - better quality and in a lounge type ambiance. We went for dinner on a Friday night and boy was it busy and loud. Not my kind of scene, but I'm in it for the…More »

I like this place especially being a little bit different amidst the Yaletown establishments. But 5 stars it is not.
It has a nice wooden structure and design reminiscent of old boat interiors...which is typical of Marina-side restos serving seafood…More »

Taste of Yaletown gave me a good opportunity to try restaurants along the area which I wouldn't think of going anytime soon.
r.tl was a hit and a miss.
The name of the restaurant brilliantly explains it's structure - regional tasting lounge - which…More »

I was told to pick up a promised $50 certificate as middle-ground for being overcharged $100. Spoke with Danny last Friday and said it will be ready by Tuesday, 07/27. I arrive late afternoon today and the person in charge didn't know what I was…More »

Keg may be a chain, but they created a damn good one by building a sleek, modern restaurant at Yaletown. All three floors has a different feel with sections of the restaurant changing from a cozy intimate feel to a wide open bar and finally leading…More »

Brunch baby!
Okay, okay, I totally get the few comments on 'that Yaletown crowd', the 'seen and be seen types'. or the 'pretentious attitude', but I say give it another chance, skip the evening bar crowd, grab some brunch, and I tell you nothing will…More »
C'est si bon! This must be the closest I could get to South of France right smack in downtown Vancouver. The food, the ambiance, the service, the marina view, and the...Smokey Robinson music, uh, err! more on that later... I had my rare - high and…More »

After paying CAD4.99 for a bland froyo, I headed to Yaletown Gelato as a means of revenge for having an unsatiated appetite. (You should have seen my tummy and I. Man, were we both laughing. Scratches head. Wut!)
The damage? A measly CAD4.75 for a…More »

I like the dark interior and cozy size typical of a local Yaletown bar.
These guys know how to provide good, friendly service. They will ask you every now and then if you need anything else, but there was no pressure in placing orders.

I hate using this phrase, but It is what it is. It's a quaint Mexican restaurant with an uncomplicated menu and easy on the pocket pricing.
There's no fusion here. Just home-made tasting meals with the right amount of watered-down spicing. But the…More »

I just had to try it for myself to verify that this place disappoints.
