Had a nice meal using some appetizer coupons from golf ⛳️ tournament at RCH ... host pleasant enough but sat the 2 of us beside large group ... not really her fault I guess but restaurant is huge and yet still felt cramped ... the Stella was flat but the hazy ipa was refreshing and nice size ... service was great , my jumbo shrimp 🍤 cocktail exceptional... my short rib was very tender and vegetable had a nice smokiness ... my friend's lobster ravioli was a little salty for her taste ... mocha ice cream dessert was plentiful and fresh very tasty ... 😋 overall I would go back restaurant clean restroom clean shiny well stocked ... fire 🔥 place adds to ambience but didn't really notice a sound track ... did enjoy brief friendly conversation with bartender ... hope they have a good Halloween 🎃 Cheers
The food was great. Service excellent. It was very quiet and felt a little hollow. It was certainly better than shaving that room filled with people. It would be very noisy. It just felt like a cafeteria but nicely decorated. Soften with plants or something. We enjoyed the meal.
This is the first time in a long time that I've had dinner at The Boathouse, Port Moody and it was outstanding. The service was top notch and the food amazing. I will definitely be back sooner rather than later. Highly recommend.
Have always loved the Boathouse, and been many times. Was really disappointed in the new calamari dish offering as it ended up having a bunch of tempura veggies and noodle bits mixed in it, and NO TZATZIKI!!! Hardly any calamari as compared to its previous glory. Dinner was served super promptly and very hot, which was appreciated and server was attentive and kind. Please bring back some of the original favs (calamari) at appropriate size/quantity
Excellent food and service. Our server was super friendly and we enjoyed our interactions with her. The food was very good. Everytime we would visit this location we would not be disappointed.
We really appreciated the outstanding service and the terrific view. Having the offer of a turkey dinner was a terrific idea and we all chose to have this and we were happy with the meal. We would've liked a little bit more gravy, but that's a minor detail we will be back.
The Thanksgiving Turkey Dinner was excellent and the Ice Cream Pie afterwards was outstanding!
Way better experience at the Port Moodie location vs the New West location! I was close to giving up on Boathouse! The waitress was absolutely fabulous
Great Food and awesome service. 5 of us went for dinner for my wife's birthday. Many great choices on the menu. I settled for the Alaskan Black Cod (blackened)with Lobster Bisque to start. Both were incredible. Done very well. Even better than the food was the service. Our server, Tara, was very attentive, down-to-earth and funny. This was a very relaxing and enjoyable evening.
Service was terrible. The server had to be asked to bring water and the complimentary bread, she slow played the bill, constantly interrupted our conversation with random unnecessary commments and generally seemed to not want to be there. Brussel sprouts were very greasy and the calamri was mostly fried vegetables. We've been going there for over 20 years and this experience made us not want to return.

Always our favourite place to go for special occasions. Staff is wonderful and food is delicious.
We arrived at our allotted time and were seated in a great table at the window . Very prompt and attentive service ,food was delicious ,service was superb.
I will start by saying our service was great. However, our food was terrible. Simple instructions of no mayonnaise on sliders was ignored, one out of six oysters was rancid, seared halibut and risotto was somehow slimy and seafood fettuccine had zero flavour and was luke warm. After my terrible experience I spoke to other people regarding The Boathouse. They all seemed to say the same thing. I wish I had been warned beforehand. Let this be my warning to future diners. There are way better options in Port Moody!

I had a very disappointing experience at the Boathouse in Port Moody last night. When I arrived with my family, I asked for a patio table for 5. The host took my name and phone number and told me it would be about 30–45 minutes. After 15 minutes I checked back, only to be told they actually wouldn’t call me and that it was “first come, first serve.” This was very frustrating and confusing, since they had already taken my information.
I waited again, and when I returned after just 5 minutes, I ended up sitting and waiting for about 20 more minutes. Eventually, we were told there was a table inside by the window, but still no patio available. At no point did the front desk staff apologize or show any concern for the mix-up.
The waterfront location is beautiful, but the customer service at the front desk was very poor and left me feeling unvalued as a guest. I was with my parents, otherwise I would have left. A simple apology and better communication would have gone a long way
