Beautiful day to eat near the water. Food was average. We came from Canada to meet a friend for lunch. Compared to eating out in Vancouver we find the prices really high for the food served. Lunch for 3 including tip was $150 USD with each of us having a cocktail.

We frequently dine at Lighthouse Bar & Grill and always enjoy it. However, our recent visit wasn’t up to their usual standards. We will be back though.

We enjoyed the prime rib special and the steak and the add on of a lobster tail were delicous and done perfectly. The evening was beautiful and the view adds to the pleasure of the evening.

Food was fine. Nothing great but adequate. The server for our table was very pleasant and funny. The kitchen had VERY significant issues on the night we visited. It took over two hours to receive our meals. While the server was apologetic delays like this should have resulted in comped meals or free desserts. The restaurant’s response to this service delay was wholly inadequate.
