It was our first time dining at ELEM for a birthday dinner, and we were given a tour of the restaurant as well as really attentive easy-going service. All the staff are really kind and knowledgeable about the menu. The food was - of course - AMAZING, and both the cocktails and the menu were highly creative and well-balanced in flavours. We loved our time at Elem! (Also, we were discussing how we were going to steal a bucket of their sauces from the kitchen because it tasted so good.) Thank you so much for a great time!

About the restaurant

Uli's Restaurant is a White Rock institution. Opened in 1986 by Uli Blume, it was one of White Rock's original waterfront restaurants and quickly became a favourite among locals for its great food and friendly atmosphere. Uli's son Tyson took over operations in 2008 and he picked up right where his father left off – providing the White Rock waterfront with a fun and relaxed place to enjoy a vibrant atmosphere, stunning water views, refreshingly simple food, an extensive international beer list, and a diverse selection of wines. Chef Jennie Silk is also making quite an impression on locals as they flock for her impeccable local flavours on the menu.

Our experience was just amazing! We came to celebrate our anniversary. Upfront, I was offered a bit booth and requested a small booth to be closer with my partner and it would be more intimate. The small booth was prepared and ready within 2 minutes. Our server, Kaitlin was amazing- she was kind, politely, knowledgeable about menu and paid attention to the details on my peanuts allergy. The food was amazing- it was super fresh, well done, beautifully plated and yummy! The cocktails- Gold Dust and Sunrise were absolutely delicious and presented very elegant. We were planning to ship the dessert as we were pretty full from the Tacos, Lobster Salad, and the Chef’s Burger but we were offered on house dessert for our anniversary and let me tell you- it was the best desert ever! Thank you for making our anniversary dinner so special, will be back soon ☺️

The three of us had a fantastic visit at your restaurant and the food was done to perfect perfection. We requested upstairs and outside and were accommodated and very appreciative. The hostess and the servers were exceptionally good. They all deserve accolades and praises. Maxine was our server and she was absolutely delightful. Two of us shared a wedge salad and two of us had the salmon and one of us had the butter chicken, and we have absolutely nothing to complain about, but have lots of compliments regarding the food. This is a great place to have a meal with friends. The three of us were all celebrating our birthdays and it was fun to do this together. They provided all of us with a lovely little complementary birthday dessert and it was just enough. Although it was an extremely windy day, everything turned out fine and the view of the lake and the atmosphere at the time was truly enjoyable. I can't wait to come back. Don't miss out on visiting this restaurant. The service is great and the food is superb. You will be happy you dined here. Thank you for everything Salty's. You really know how to do everything right. 😎👍🤩🥳🙋‍♀️
