Super fun place for a date or hang out with friends. They have wine flights which makes it a great way to try out a bunch of wines and a lovely food menu with interesting options. Would definitely go back. It is on the smaller side so they have limited seating so if definitely try to make a reso before hand. Staff also seemed knowledgeable about wines and gave us a nice profile of each one that we had in our wine flight.

I cannot say enough good things about this restaurant, WOW! Every single thing blew my mind. What an absolutely fantastic menu. The beef tartare, foie gras and the scallop were my favourites. Not only was everything delicious, it was also exceptionally beautiful. We had an excellent bottle of Sancerre and also a bottle of Grenache, both wines paired well with the food. Service was attentive, friendly and very detail oriented. We truly wanted for nothing!! What an absolute delight. I want to eat here every day.Dietary restrictions: Great gluten free options!

My friend and I were visiting from Niagara Falls and were absolutely blown away with the food, wine and service here. This little gem is tucked away on a quiet back street with a warm and cozy atmosphere. Our server Julianna was incredible, she helped us with all our wine pairings and was so fun to chat with. She made our whole experience. The wontons blew me away & I can't wait to come back on my next visit.

One of the best meals we had in Vancouver. Everything was amazing - first class service, great wine, and food was fantastic. Truly one of the best experiences we have had anywhere. Already thinking about when we can come back

The food was some of the most impressive I've had in Vancouver. The scallop dish, beef tartare, and the winter salad were fantastic. Wish the oysters didn't have little pieces of shell in it and the service could've been a smidge more attentive, but no big complaints. Will be back!

Fantastic meal and service. Our server was extremely knowledgeable and made great recommendations. There wasn't a dish I didn't enjoy. Favourites were the trout, scallops, sunchokes and fingerling potatoes. Nice touch to be able to fo a wine flight with a solid list of choices. I will be back.

I don't usually leave reviews, but the toro/uni toast and beef tartare were probably some of the best things I've ever put in my mouth. Overall, an amazing atmosphere and culinary experience!!

I went in there last Friday evening to have a glass or 2 of wine with a friend. We told our server that we just wanted a glass of wine and he asked what we preferred and I wanted a suggestion . I gave him what I was looking for and he came back with 2 glasses, a Pino for her and a Borollo, I think, for me. we had a second also but I changed my mind and wanted something different. We asked for our bill and to my surprise, my first glass was $54. All the other glasses were $17 and $19. I paid it, as I didn't want to make a scene but I think as a server, that was asked for a suggestion, that you don't give the most expensive thing on the list without saying"By the way the glass is $54" I definitely would have gone with something else.It has great atmosphere but just be cautious if you are getting a suggestion from the waiter.

This place is very cute and has a great happy hour! Oysters were delish and same with the steak tartar. Love that you can do wine flights. Our service was so friendly and helpful. Would 100% go back here!

Came for Valentine's Day dinner and was very pleased with our experience! 100% a date night spot - intimate surroundings with light bites. Wine selection was excellent, we had a bunch of great recommendations from our server who was so welcoming. She also made great recommendations for food pairings with the wine we chose! All in all a great date spot tucked away in blood alley. Bites are small but extremely well done. My only takeaway is that the uni toast is honestly kinda hyped up and very average. Favorites were the scallop crudo and beef tartare!

I wanted to stay longer, but the bar table was so uncomfortable and the stool seat was too shallow. It sucks because the menu is good and the vibe is nice. I'll recommend avoiding the bar table to get more comfortable.
