I have a hard adjusting to inflation. LolThe price of everything has jumped and I understand that but, unfortunately, I know how much less things used to cost. The food was excellent and so was the service. It was good pub fare at the going rate. The milkshake IPA beer was really good.

The food was dry and flavorless. The restaurant was nearly empty and it took 45min for our food to come after we ordered. $85 before tip for a burger, beefdip and a dry ribs Appy....not impressed at all.

It could do with a makeover, perhaps. It's probably nicer when the patio is open.Was last here over 10 years ago and seem to remember it being a little fancier. It might have just been me and the difference between daytime and nighttime meals.Seems they have embraced the sports bar theme and have a few good specials on game day, including a contest where you receive a puck with a players number, and if he scores, your bill is free.Fair happy hour prices on $5 high balls, $8 doubles, and $6 beers, in early 2024. Check on line for current hours.Went in for a family lunch with both an adult child and 3 y/o child. They seemed short staffed, although it was about 4 pm on Saturday. When we did get seated, they were quick on the booster seat and many extra coloring pages to go with the crayons.Once we were seated, service improved, and the wait staff were polite and friendly and quite patient with our table.The food, although perhaps a little pricy, but isn't everywhere nowadays, was fairly good. Definitely, quality ingredients were used. The portions weren't huge but not tiny, small either. Everyone was happy with the food we ordered and said it tasted really good. The menu, however, was quite limited. Our adult son mentioned it more than once. It was also he who complained about a bowl costing $29, but he is still young and learning. He did enjoy the jumbelia bowl though even if it wasn't spicy enough for his taste, but our waitress was quick to bring everything he might need to fire it up a few notches. We did not stay for dessert or linger for too long due to the 3 y/o being autistic and had to sit still.Overall, I like Fluid and would recommend it to others. I'm not sure about for a family, but for a date night or a get-together w/ friends, for sure it's an upscale, sort of hip place. I'd like to come back in the summer and edit my review, so check back in 9 months.Parking: Very large parking lot behind the restaurantKid-friendliness: Pretty good kids menu with coloring pages and crayons.Booster seats and I saw two basic, plastic highchairs(they looked to be light duty and not to study for a toddler). Not the most ideal place for children but better during the day for sure.

Sad place, mojito did not taste like mojito, yam fries were almost burnt. How about bring up your level ?!?

I came with my family and we had the Grilled chicken burgers which were a bit plain, but the Kung Pau rice prawn and steak and the fried chicken burger were excellent. Staff were polite and helpful and not too long to wait. I will look to come again soon.

First time stopping into this place, Ordered the Fluid Crispy Chicken Burger. The taste was perfect the chicken had a little kick, and the crispy onions topped it off! Amazing burger and one of the only places throughout the lower mainland and island I have visited that the crispy chicken burger was actually CRISPY!

Fluid Bar & Grill is a fantastic spot to unwind and enjoy a delicious burger along with some drinks. After a long day of meetings up island, my business partner and I decided to stop by, and we were glad we did.The highlight of this place is undoubtedly the burgers. They are mouthwateringly good and hit the spot after a busy day. The drink selection complements the food perfectly, allowing you to kick back and relax.What sets Fluid Bar & Grill apart is its friendly and attentive staff. They make sure you have a pleasant dining experience and are always ready to assist with any requests.Whether you're looking for a place to grab a satisfying meal or catch up with friends over drinks, Fluid Bar & Grill fits the bill. It's a place where you can enjoy good food, good company, and unwind after a hectic day.

One of the worst meals i have had. Pasta was so undercooked it was still hard. Alittle 3 oz chicken breast, big bowl of pasta . When asked how was everything, i replied with Pasta way too hard still. Waitress was nice, but come the bill they deducted $3.20 from the $28.00 charge. We were warned about going here, but thought we would give ot a try. Their menu is extremely overpriced for what you recieve. Won't be back, Won't reccomend and really folks save your $$$ and go get some fast food as it's better than here.
