About this restaurant

  • Good for special occasions
  • Charming
  • Neighborhood gem
The Old Surrey Restaurant is Surrey’s best well- kept secret. Built in 1918, it was the residence of Lou Jack and his household until it was converted into a restaurant in 1974.

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 has been family-owned and operated since 1974 and in 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.

    The servers were very experienced and did an outstanding job. Everyone at our table had appetizers, main course and dessert. All of the food was outstanding, and the ambience was good. Overall, a very positive dining experience.

    Perfect for a special dinner, including romantic dinner. Menu is classic, which is hard to find in the area. Delicious classic caesar salad made at table, seafood, duck breast, etc. Wine list very good and well priced. Service very friendly and accommodating to special requests.

    I’ve been going to this restaurant for over 45 years and it has remained the same level of quality and all respects. It is amazing that such a great part of history can be preserved at such a high level of quality for so long!
