Each course was delicious- enjoyed every bite. We ordered our maximum allotment of Fanny Bay oysters for the Dine Out- so fresh and flavourful! The lobster bisque included a good portion of lobster pieces, was an ample portion and tasted great- a bit of a kick. Scallops and pork belly entre was a hit. The Apple dessert was delicious. I highly recommend this Dine Out experience.

Overall food and service was good. Unfortunately we were seated beside a pair of Gen Z customers who did not know their inside voices was way too loud and annoying. I put the value as fair because we ordered a dozen oysters, 2 appetizers, and 1 entree with 2 glasses of wine and our bill was $160 before taxes and tip. If we ordered a second entree we would have been close to $200 which I think is a bit much.

Best and freshest oysters I have tasted and we have had oysters in many many places around the world… The pork belly and scallops with cauliflower/ carrots/ radicchio is scrumptious. The grilled octopus with pumpkin seeds served with cold chutney … again scrumptious. The apple torte ala mode… is friggn awesome. Service is excellent and great prices.

Great seafood restaurant in Vancouver BC. I was able to get same day reservation for 4 people. Love the selection of seafood. Definitely recommend oysters if you are an oyster lover. Also the lobster bisque was good with lots of lobster meat. I saw that they had happy hour that was good value but we missed it. Definitely a place you should try if you like seafood!

Delicious meal, great menu and service was impeccable with such friendly staff. The booth seat was a little slippery which wasn’t awful but a foot rest might make it easier to stay on. I’m 5’9” so I’d think it’s not great for shorter folk.

First off, we were late for our reservation but they still respected it and were able to seat us within 10 minutes. I ordered the fish and chips but it was pretty greasy and the fish literally fell out of the battered coating. They were so gracious and understanding and asked if I’d like something else so I had the lobster bisque. Let me tell you about the lobster bisque…it was out of this world! So delicious. Every. Single. Bite. The bisque was so silky and smooth with so much flavour. The lobster tasted delightful. My husband has the shuckers dozen and the lobster bisque, which he loved. I’m sure we will go back at some point!

Terrible experience. We had a reservation for 9pm. We were called 3 times starting at 7:30 telling us our table was ready. I was working. This was intrusive. Then when we got there we were rushed through our meal. Given our bill before we were finished. When our food was delivered my husband asked for another beer and was told the bar was closed. We had to push back on that. We won’t be back. To spend what we did for dinner and to be under that pressure was very upsetting. You ruined it for us.
