    We had a table with view of False Creek, as requested. We were served by Lucy who handled our ordering requests efficient and with fun. Especially our wine orders as wine bottles are half price on Tuesdays. Food was delicious.

    The rookie waitress was excellent as was her trainer; great attention to details. The atmosphere was excellent and the music was toned down. The food. I ordered bacon and scrambled eggs. What I received. Was one watery partially cooked egg with burnt potato skins and one slice of toast. When asked the server, not our waitress, ‘What is this?’ She just shrugged. We had to leave for a family birthday celebration -my wife’s- so I ate the presentation. This is not what I have come to expect over the past 7 years as a regular customer. The menu. Lots of choice if you like eggs Benedict, not much beyond that. I will try this again, hopefully everything will have improved.

    Came here and sat on the patio everything was so nice. Our server Cole gave us really good service from start to finish everything was smooth and hassle free. He recommended the passion star martini which was absolutely delicious. So much other helpful staff around the restaurant- a very good atmosphere we will be back.

    Went to this location with three other friends on our way to see a play at the BMO Theatre. Easy to find parking and loved that there was an elevator directly from the parking lot to the restaurant. Atmosphere was relaxed and energetic at the same time. Everyone seemed to be enjoying themselves. We were escorted to our table quickly upon arrival and even though we were late getting there, the reservation was held for us. Wait staff were cordial and welcoming. Service was quick and efficient. Food was excellent and a good value for the money. Will definitely recommend this location to anyone in or around Olympic Village.

    Overall, the experience was okay, our service was very slow, and not super attentive waiting long periods to come around for drink refills. When you could see the waitress socializing with coworkers.

    Our waitress really made. The difference between an excellent dining experience and an outstanding one. She was friendly helpful efficient and really went the extra mile to make our dining experience memorable. Everything was delicious. We particularly loved the hummus and harissa with focaccia bread aas well as the med salad. But it was all delicious! The patio setting was both comfortable and picturesque and for us out of towners was really impressive.

    Beautiful location and our server (not sure of her name) was exceptional. Super friendly and attentive. Food was good, good menu (including decent options for mocktails and non-alcoholic beer) and I personally love the pet-friendly patio. Would definitely come again.
