The King Caesar Review is here! I am here to rate all the Caesar salads world wide … starting at my home in Vancouver. These rating will be heavily based on the Caesar salad its self, and no other food I ordered. I have been eating Caesar salads for the past 20 years and thought it’s about time I got serious about these leafy greens covered in cream sauce. I hope your as excited as I am.
Let’s talk Caesar: So King was NOT impressed by “The Shed’s” Caesar what’s so ever…. Here’s why
Dressing: Was there any?!? King Caesar loves a heavy dressed salad…and this was probably the driest salad I have consumed. This was very disappointing considering this was a very easy way to gain points…but they chose to be chauncy and that’s not cool..or tasty. The little bit that we did taste, oil base (points), light garlic (no points), no taste of anchovies .. very basic .. very sad..
Lettuce: the only thing King liked about this Caesar was that the lettuce was very cold, which is always refreshing to the palate, but the chop its self… could have been smaller.
Croutons: packaged …
Cheese: shaved parm IS King’s fave, (rather than graded) so there you go Shed, you gave us that, thank god
Bacon: Wasn’t present! Which is my preference, but to each their own here
Overall the view and the company I was with was spectacular…overlooking the city from West Vancouver, set up a blanket on some green space, which we were able to bring our drinks out onto. Played frisbee and laughed. We ordered pizza too, light sauce, cardboard texture… but we’re focusing on the Caesar in this rating. 30min wait for food and even longer wait for the washroom. Maybe we’ll just be back for the views… but can’t say for much more else. Sorry Shed for the bad rating, but you should be the one apologizing to us. <3

⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ for the spectacular location with views of the Lower Mainland and the bay! Absolutely enjoyed the vibe here and love the option to set up a small picnic on the grass right by the restaurant.
The pizza tasted good - good like they used quality ingredients and made them in a “non-fast food” manner. That being said, I’d be hard pressed to find that people are coming here for the food or beer. It is very much the unbeatable location perks and surrounding attractions that is quite magnetic.
Cypress Pop-up village is definitely worth a visit - family friendly, view friendly and just overall really great vibes.
Kid-friendliness: There were lots of kids around during our visit. There’s green grass nearby where we spotted families playing together.

Very good point and place to enjoy some delicious pizza flavours, drink a coffee, juice, wine and beer.
A good service and crew combined with a nice and cozy atmosphere.
The outside view is also amazing to take photos and enjoy the city.
There are a plenty spacious parking lot.

I love the location. The views were spectacular, the pizza… not so much. The pie cost roughly $30 and it was very thin and did not have much toppings. The crust was cardboard like and I barely taste the truffle oil.
The only thing saving the shed is that there are no other restaurants around. I still recommend you stop just to take in the views.

The truffle mushroom pizza was good, but not worth waiting 40 minutes to an hour for a pizza. We went there on a Thursday for sunset, so I understand being short staff, however, some warning before ordering would be good.
This is my third time trying this place out and each time I'm more disappointed with the experience.
I came with my mother and brother. We ordered 2 pizzas, a tea latte, hot coco and cappuccino, all made with oat milk.
When I placed the order, I was told it would be around a 30min wait. Not a problem as there's a beautiful view and we had our drinks to pass the time.
I took the first sip of my capp and it did not taste like oat milk. Took it back and to my surprise the barista says they made one big steamed jug of oat milk and used that for all the drinks.
If that's true, the only way mine wouldn't taste like oat milk is if the pitcher used wasn't rinsed properly. They're lucky I didn't have a dairy allergy and it was a preference.
The other issue I have is for the price of these drinks, and the long wait for pizza, I expect care put into my drinks. Every drink should have been steamed individually. Especially for my order.
I'm a barista, so I know how drinks are made.
A hot chocolate should be steamed to be hotter than the other two drinks.
A capp should be texturized differently and a cooler temp than a hot coco
A tea latte should be steamed to a latte temp and texturized like one.
I wanted to ask them all to be remade but I felt bad as they were busy. Looking back, I should have. I spent almost $90 (including a 20% tip which I now regret) for everything and I should have received quality!
Now onto the pizza.
I was told 30min. I expect it to be about that time, maybe a bit longer but not AN HOUR! That is ridiculous. Had my family and I known it'd be an hour we would have only ordered drinks.
We watched, growing more and more annoyed at the wait getting longer and longer. The sign warning of the wait times constantly changing to be longer than what was said.
Honestly, they should be providing something complementary when wait times go up (a free dipping sauce, some bread slices, anything small!)
When we finally got our two pizzas, one of them was WRONG! Not only did we spend $90 for poorly made drinks and a constantly changing wait time, the employees couldn't even take the time to make sure our order was right.
We got the right pizza in the end but there was no apology for the mistake or the wait and that rubs me the wrong way.
I've given this place three chances and there won't be a fourth. If it weren't for the location, I don't think The Shed would be doing nearly as well and for anyone thinking about checking this place out...
DO NOT ORDER ANY COFFEE DRINKS (better off just having a beer)
BE PREPARED TO WAIT AN HOUR FOR PIZZA (Especially at lunch time or on nice days)
AVOID TIPPING UNTIL AFTER YOU GET YOUR ORDER (tipping should be based on quality, and attention to detail. Can't know what your experience will be like until after you've had your meal)

I am writing to express my dissatisfaction with the service I experienced at your restaurant. My visit was highly disappointing, and I feel compelled to bring these issues to your attention.
I arrived at your restaurant at 1:16 and placed my order promptly. However, after waiting for 50 minutes, my food had still not arrived. To my frustration, I noticed that customers who arrived after us had already received their pizza, finished eating, and left the restaurant. This was incredibly frustrating and unacceptable.
When I approached one of your staff members to inquire about the delay, I was told that they "could not control" the situation. This response was both unprofessional and unsatisfactory. As a customer, I expect a reasonable explanation and a proactive effort to resolve such issues, not a dismissive comment.
I understand that delays can happen, but the lack of communication and accountability from your staff made the experience even more disappointing. I would like to know what steps your restaurant will take to ensure that this does not happen again in the future.

Ordered a cheese pizza and knew the average waiting time 35mins and we've been waiting for an hour and went to ask the staff. Got answer its out of her control. People ordered behind us have been done and left already. If you are hungary I wont recommend this restaurant.

Probably the worst food I’ve had in my life. I had the Caesar salad and it tasted moldy. The staff did not take my complain well and Gave me dirty looks.
