Canadian Restaurants in Burnaby, BC

“We had our wedding here last weekend, and everything went perfectly. Ella and the team are amazing, from the food to the bar, everything was super organized and all the staff was lovely. Our guests loved everyone they spoke to from the BMC team and so did we. Ella was responsive and flexible, helping make our special requests happen and adapting with us to the changing weather. If you’re debating whether to host your event here, look no further. It truly was magical. The outdoor space was so nice both at night and during the day and we loved every second of it.“

“Jake was our server. His second week working and you can definitely tell the effort he is putting into it. Obviously being more confident with the menu could have provided a smoother experience, but that comes with time. As a previous restaurant leader, it would be a pleasure to have him on my team of servers.“

“Alicia was one of the best servers I’ve ever met; she was very friendly and easygoing, so chatting with her was a great delight.“

“We love this location for large group events as they are always very accommodating. There’s lots of free parking in the shopping complex and centrally located.
The service and staff were great and the food never disappoints. There is something for everyone to choose from the menu and don’t forget to save room for dessert.
Prices have gotten a little higher but that’s with everything out there these days.“

“I had the pleasure of dining at Brown Social House and left thoroughly impressed by both the cuisine and the service. I ordered the Butcher’s Block Burger, which featured a perfectly cooked, flavorful beef patty topped with crispy, smoky bacon and crisp, fresh lettuce. The attention to detail in the preparation was evident, as each component complemented the others beautifully, making for an incredibly satisfying and well-balanced burger.

What truly set the experience apart, however, was the outstanding service. Erin, our waitress, was attentive and genuinely friendly, making sure our needs were met with efficiency and a warm demeanor. Her professionalism and positive attitude contributed to an inviting and enjoyable atmosphere. It’s clear that Brown Social House prioritizes both the quality of their food and the experience of their guests.

For anyone seeking a combination of excellent service and a delicious, thoughtfully crafted meal, I highly recommend Brown Social House. It’s a standout choice for anyone looking to enjoy a top-notch dining experience.“

“that was honestly one of the tastiest breakfasts I've ever had .. the pulled pork benny was delicious!!“

“We held our wedding here and could not have asked for a better venue with better staff. Bradley Binkley, the sales supervisor who walked us through the whole process in booking the venue and finalizing the details for how the venue was set up, the chef, Laura, and everyone who worked there, were all friendly and very good at what they do. If you are still considering options for venues for your special event, with Riverway Clubhouse being one of them, you can rest assured that Riverway Clubhouse is a perfect choice with the perfect staff needed to make the experience as good as it can get!“

“For our recent staff meeting, we ordered our meals from the Market Crossing location. Mark took our order when I called in. He was very patient. We had a lot meals and he took the time to ensure everything was correct. Our order was ready for the exact time we requested and every meal was correct. Thanks Mark for taking the extra time .“

“Prairie professionals very helpful and respectful love everyone keep up the good work

Kid-friendliness: I'm not sure there was no kids there at the time I was there but I haven't been there for a while the last time I was there was one West Broadway and they had lost the kids at that time and everybody was very patient and understanding

Wheelchair accessibility: They have a disability button at the front door so people coming in wheelchair scooters so on and so on lots of wide miles they remove chairs for wheelchairs who won the table so yes very wheelchair acceptable“

“Had dinner at Acqua Restaurant with my family and had a really great time. The service was excellent, Dennis, our server was attentive and super accomodating. ? They also had live music and Gelo Granados was energetic, full of life and soulful. Overall a great experience. I highly recommend this place. ?“

“I recently dined at Earls and had an exceptional experience from start to finish. The service was impeccable, with every detail carefully attended to, making the evening feel truly special. Our waitress, Bella, went above and beyond in ensuring we had everything we needed, providing thoughtful suggestions that enhanced our meal even more.

The food was simply outstanding each dish beautifully presented and bursting with flavor. The kitchen clearly knows their craft, as every bite was a delight. Drinks arrived promptly, and despite the quick service, the quality of the cocktails was top-notch. Each one was expertly mixed, and the balance of flavors was perfect.

A special thanks to Bella for her warmth and attentiveness throughout the night. Her recommendations were spot on, and she made us feel like we were the most important guests in the room. We can’t wait to return!

“Eating here for about 12 years now. It's a blessing here. Otherwise I would not survive as food options are limited for me here.

A plate usually costs between $8 and $12 for an average person. You can see my plate and the receipt photo here.

Star rating should have been more. I have no affiliation with this restaurant. My review is based on eating food here for last 12 years. And it has always been great.“

“We were visiting from out of town and stopped at Cactus Club for my partners birthday dinner. We are so happy we chose Cactus as the food and service were great!

We were lucky to have Ghayass as our server and they were amazing! Very attentive and made our birthday celebration feel special. Huge shout out to Ghayass!

For food we started with the calamari and it was amazing, I could have eaten a large entree sized portion of just this! We also got a green goddess salad that was great and the bolognese pasta which was really good.

We ordered a crème brûlée for desert and Ghayass made it special by bringing it out with a happy birthday message and a candle, thank you so much! The dessert was amazing!

Overall a great experience!“

“We love going for lunch and dinner , food is excellent good price and quality.
Disappointed with service , had the same server twice for lunch on a Tuesday and she is NOT personable at all , seems like is a bother to have to serve people , she is in the wrong business“

“I had an amazing experience at White Spot on North Road! The food was absolutely delicious, and the flavors exceeded my expectations. On top of that, the service was outstanding—friendly, attentive, and efficient. I’ll definitely be coming back soon! Highly recommend this spot if you’re looking for great food and excellent service.“

“Found it driving around looking for somewhere to eat that wasn't a big chain restaurant and was not disappointed. The free parking in a real parking lot was a pleasant surprise to find. Someone was quick to assist us and allow us to take our pick of the tables. My wife had the butter chicken and I had the bacon Swiss burger and wow the butter chicken was amazing with a homemade sauce with a mild spice and the burger was well cooked juicy with real bacon. I would recommend trying it out if you haven't and feel the friendly atmosphere at this small family operated business“

“Bacon was crispy done to perfection.
Waffle was very tasty too.
Tho their broccoli and carrots from kids menu were defrost kids didn’t like them. I found them very hard to swallow too and they didn’t come with any dressings or seasoning.“

“Came here for Pirate Pak Day, which is probably peak busy day for White Spot. Had about a half hour wait before we were seated, but good thing is they have a large free parking lot.

Service was a bit slower, which is expected given how busy the place was.

Good location for family dining and usually has seating available. Definitely gets busier as more people live in the Brentwood area.“

“We enjoyed a brief visit to this little gem bar with some delicious wings and fries. Our Sangria hit the spot for our Thanksgiving day aperitif along with so many choices of flavors it took us awhile to make up our minds. I would recommend this place for some good food and great service. We will definitely be back. PS, Off sale as well.“
