“Dress nicely and drop in for happy hour before it gets too busy. I had a wet martini, nicely prepared, and an imported draft beer from Oregon. Didn’t stay for food because of a prior commitment, but it’s on my list for a follow-up visit.

Wheelchair accessibility: I went down stairs to get there from the street entrance, perhaps there’s an elevator since it’s connected to the Georgia Hotel?“

“If you are in Vancouver and want an amazing dining experience, we highly recommend Lift Bar and Grill. We dined here for supper on June 3, 2023, and absolutely loved the atmosphere as well as the food! Waterfront dining (they provide indoor/outdoor and roof top dining), with the water and mountain views was spectacular as we watched the sunset on the water. Our server Sean was very pleasant and courteous and made our time there very enjoyable. We started with Caesars and Soughdough Baguette, and then shared a Scallop & Prawns Linguine (we have smaller appetites). Both were absolutely Amazing dishes! The surprise birthday dessert was very much appreciated and delicious! We would say the cost is average for Vancouver restaurant dining. This is not a fast food restaurant, but chef prepared and is reflected in the presentation and taste! We will be back when we visit again!“

“The absolute BEST gluten free chicken burger I have ever had. The smash burgers are also fantastic. There is something for everyone on the menu it's a real crowd pleaser. We like to order the burgers while we enjoys beers at the brewery but it is good to know that you can order them straight from the truck in the alley as well if you are in a grab and go kind of mood. The pup burger was a real hit with our doodle!“

Beanstalk Bistro American • $

“Beanstalk Bistro offers a delightful dining experience that cleverly blends traditional flavours with modern culinary techniques. Located in the heart of the city, this cozy restaurant impresses with its charming, rustic decor and a warm, welcoming ambiance. The menu is a well-curated mix of classic and innovative dishes, each prepared with fresh, locally-sourced ingredients. The standout item for me was the 'Herb-Crusted Rack of Lamb', which was cooked to perfection, offering a beautiful balance of textures and flavors. The vegetarian options are equally impressive, particularly the 'Quinoa Stuffed Peppers', which are a testament to the chef's ability to make healthy ingredients shine. Service at Beanstalk Bistro is attentive without being intrusive. The staff are knowledgeable about the menu and were more than happy to offer recommendations.“

“If you want taco bell, without the awful bathroom experience afterwards, and while being able to easily identify the meat, then this is the place to eat. I ordered the Cali Crunch, good flavor with a bit of a bite that won't hurt you. Extremely filling. I also ordered the deep fried cheesecake because I have no self control. By golly, my body isn't happy with me right now but my soul is finally at peace. Thank you for that religious experience.“

“My husband is celiac and I swear he had happy tears streaming down his face after having a celiac safe fried chicken sandwich and all dressed fries (seriously, crazy good). The sweet tea and peanut salad were also delicious! We will drive back to Van from South Surrey just for this meal again, I’m sure.“
