Old Surrey Restaurant
The interior has a crisp, clean aesthetic that is enhanced by hardwood floors and the enlarged photos of historic Surrey that adorn the walls. There are five distinct dining areas on the top floor (including a cozy library) and a banquet facility downstairs. The cuisine is French with a splash of West Coast flare. A treat for new and seasoned guests alike are the signature dishes that are prepared and flambeed tableside.
The restaurant is family owned and operated since 1975. Since 1984 the restaurant has entered into a partnership with the family farm in Ryder Lake overlooking Chilliwack from the nearby mountains. The Old Surrey is well known for its free-range lamb and veal allowing customers to enjoy fresh organic ingredients.

Great as usual !
Lovely spot for a special 80th birthday dinner! Our server, Nick, was great. After the delicious dinners, we had special coffees, which Nick made at the table, and they were some of the best we have ever had!! This is definitely one of our very favourite restaurants. We have never been disappointed with the food or service here.
Wonderful experience and will definitely come back!
Everytime I cross the wee pond to visit my mother we have dinner at The Old Surrey Restaurant. Excellent food, as is the service and ambience I am assured of the continual excellence of the place. One recommendation that I would make is for the food to arrive at slower intervals so we can savour each delicious dish.
Excellent classic dining. Front of house staff is absolutely lovely, food is exceptional. Lived in Surrey for over 35 yrs and wish I’d tried it sooner!
Service was impeccable as always and the food outstanding! Ordered the fresh halibut and was cooked to perfection!
Absolutely fantastic, staff very helpful and accommodating, scallops, steak and ceasar salad were great
Super experience
Lovely restaurant with delicious food. The only suggestion I would have is, if you are not in a hurry, please make that known. We had ordered drinks and an appetizer and had just gotten our drinks and our appetizer arrived. For our main entree we did let the waiter know we weren't in a hurry and the rest of the meal went perfectly.
Incredible food and excellent service. Highly recommend. Nick was great at his job and very entertaining
The chef was aware of our lactose allergies and adjusted the dinner accordingly. My daughter said the halibut was wonderful.
We loved our New years dinner. The set menu is always good. This is one of our favorite restaurants.
Great way to spend New Years Eve.

Outstanding as always.
Everything was so wonderful. The food is the best I have ever had. The steak melts in your mouth. Everything was perfectly cooked. The Cesar salad is the best you will ever have.
Simply the best fine dining, complete with old world charm. Went for the halibut and were not disappointed! Absolutely fabulous...
Fantastic food, tasty drinks, great service and ambience, I love this restaurant!!
Excellent as always. Food and service was top notch!
Good service and food quality. Nice plates presentation.
I just would like a bit more of French oriented dishes.
The food, ambience service were all outstanding the best restaurant south of the Fraser
Only concern was my “split” of house champagne” should have been colder
We were celebrating a landmark birthday and the Old Surrey delivered exactly what I was hoping for. Lovely ambiance, excellent service and delicious food.
Service was excellent and ambience was perfect for a quiet intimate dinner.
It’s great cause you can actually have conversation and hear the other person
Service is outstanding and food is excellent
I was told all workers are vaccinated so felt safer
The halibut was over cooked and dry. Prawn appetizer very good and the desert was very good but the main was below standard. I could not finish the main course.
From the caesar salad tableside to dessert tableside. A fantastic experience.
70th Birthday
I really enjoy the Old Surrey Restaurant as it never disappoints! Food and Service is excellent.
Dec 10/21 Ordered the Winter 4 Course Special $75. Each course had a great selection. I plan to return just for the current winter Special. In Oct I ordered the Fall 4 course Special & was very disappointed in the very limited selection. The food was good but no choice. Really put me off returning. However a friend told me about the current selection for this winter Special & I loved it. PLEASE CONTINUE OFFERING SEVERAL CHOICES FOR EACH COURSE. The Prawns, Escargot, French Onion Soup, Pomegranate salad, Halibut, Strawberries & Ice cream are all highly recommended.
Delicious food. Fun to watch tableside prep for chateaubriand, Caesar salad, cherries jubilee. The beef medallions melted in your mouth they were so tender. Can’t wait to go back.
Great way to celebrate 🍾 the love of my life's 85th.
Service was excellent. Food was very good. Enjoyed very much
As always .. excellent !
We had a party of 6 and were placed in a private room which was lovely. The service was excellent and the food was fabulous! We had the seafood platter, steaks and lamb. Everyone was very pleased with the food and the service. It's a bit pricy but it was a nice treat. My lamb dish was amazing. I do recommend this place for a special occasion or if you want a nice really meal.
Always fabulous meals, great service love this place!
Very loud patrons at the table next to us made it hard to talk and enjoy the atmosphere.
Old Surrey House has been my Favorite for years. Tonight My Group Of Seven Celebrated our yearly Christmas Dinner. You didn't let me down. We had the greatest time, the service was Amazing as usual and the Food - Rave reviews with each course. Thank You so much for making this a memorable night!
Everything about this restaurant is standing. Our food was perfectly prepared.
