Excellent service, good quality food. We had items off the brunch menu. They were of good quality and value. Definitely recommend it, wish they had outside seating for bigger party.

This place is so cozy! I dropped by to see a couple friends test out the acoustics for live music on Thursdays- and it's a hit! Definitely check them out! Great prices, awesome staff, beautiful location- what's not to love?! Live music starts at 6pm on Thursdays.

Popped in for a break from walking around the false creak part of the sea wall. Refreshing drinks, got the chips and guacamole to share. Nice view of the inner harbour too. Our server was friendly and quick, had an awesome non alcoholic sour! Will def come back when in vancouver next

First time visiting, what an amazing patio!We ordered the Calamari and Seafood PapardelleTaste 1/1*OMG was it ever the best calamari ever! No jokes, a must try!! The okra, cucumber, fried chickpeas and fresh squid going with that delicious sauce!? (Best okra we’ve had to date too)The mussels on the seafood Papardelle were the size of a clam…Value 1/1*Although the appy & pasta w tip ended up just under $50, tad expensive, the quality of food and view of the water made it worthwhileService 0.5/1*Asked my pregnant wife to go around as opposed to opening the patio door, then locking us out of the restaurant even though there were still unpaid customers on patioCleanliness 1/1*No complaintsOverall/Revisit 1/1*Hell yes, JUST for the calamari!Paying for ambience? YES, for the beachfront viewAbove and beyond? 0/+1*Side note -1/-1*This place is like a bare minimum of ‘dog friendly’, cause even though dogs are allowed on patio, you have to walk around the outside of patio AND dogs are only allowed under the table, felt more like ‘dog tolerated’

Let's be honest, the location gives this place all the stars. There really aren't many things better in life than sitting out on a patio on a nice sunny day with company you enjoy sharing a bite and creating memories. As can be expected, any sunny day tends to draw crowds out to the seawall so this place was no exception. Service was acceptable but it is quite the frantic/chaotic vibe. I can imagine people who don't do well with waiting to become agitated. Came for a light snack. I wouldn't say anything was extraordinary but there is fare to be had to satiate the hunger. Seafood Chowder - this was underwhelming moreso because I think the volume of "seafood" to your potato was lacking. Perhaps I just got the bad ladle. However, the croutons they used were great. Stayed crispy til the end of the bowl. Ahi Tuna Tacos - I think the heat aspect was overdone with this one with the spicy sauce and peppers. Thought less could have been more as the Ahi Tuna was just masked under the sauce. Many people were having burgers & beers. We didn't try this but maybe next time.

Had the cod and chips. It was very good. The homemade tartar sauce was excellent and it was a good portion for the price.Also had a Ceasar.It's right on the water which is nice. Service was good. It was very busy so it sometimes took a while for my server to come around again but that was fine.

I've passed this cute grill at least 500 times since I moved to Van, as it's right smack dab on the seawall, just a tad south of the Burrard Bridge, and I walk the seawall all the time. You can't get a better location than this bar/grill, on a seawall corner, looking over boats in the marina, the stately Burrard Bridge, with Granville Island right across the inlet, and all the cute AquaBus ferries crisscrossing the waterway. Also, there's seating outside, literally abutting the seawall, so it's a great place to people- and dog-watch, as there is tons of foot (and paw) traffic in this area, especially when the weather is nice, as it was today. I've also always wanted to visit here, not just because of the scenic and convenient location, but also because, whenever I've passed here while it was open, the most intoxicating aromas of burgers has emanated from the restaurant, and there always seemed to be tons of happy, laughing diners sitting outside and in, with tasty looking meals and drinks on thier tables. Today was the day that I finally visited this place. And it did NOT disappoint. My kid and I snagged the best table, outside, along the rail abutting the seawall, right on the corner. Our server was the NICEST ever (wish I caught her name), and we were impressed by the menu, too. Lots of choices, very reasonably priced, too. My kid and I shared the ahi tuna tacos (we came in between lunch and dinner-time, so we weren't really hungry for a whole meal. This visit here today was an impromptu stop along our seawall walk). Those ahi tacos were fantastic! Wow, so good. And I had probably the best sangria of my life here; they made it PERFECTLY for me. My kid had a beer/sour on tap, which she loved. All in all, we had a great visit here! It could not have been better. Will return for the burgers, though. They smelled incredible.
