    Delicious fried chicken sandwich with fries. You can just barely see the remnants of the remaining ricotta doughnut.
    Bridget H.

    Went to a Book club meeting at the downtown location this morning and had a delightful experience! Really can't wait to go again. I ordered the fried chicken sandwich with fries, as did every other member of my group! It was exceptional. I think they have something magical that they put on top of that fried chicken just sort of sweet and delicious. We also ordered the little donuts and they were fried delicious nuggets of yumminess. I definitely want to go back.

    Cheeseburger with chips

    We get the hype! Cozy restaurant, with a warm, intimate vibe. We were seated in a booth (by a window) so we could gaze outside. Amy and Tana were our servers and they were delightful! We shared the pretzel fondue appetizer - worth ordering! Mr. Wonderful ordered the fried chicken, coleslaw and mashed potatoes. I had the cheeseburger with housemade chips, chips are *not to be missed! For dessert we had the ricotta donuts, which are a ridiculously good indulgence!

    Perfect food and service for our first visit to Amaro's Table in Vancouver downtown. First of all...the service and friendliness of out server, Anne Marie was beyond great. Her awareness of timing and her general personality was the best. The food was incredible. Fromm the appetizer that were the Hush Puppies, and to the end with the fun and tasty donuts. But the lunch was the best part. I had the Fried Chicken and the meat was so tender and flavorful . A steak knife came with the plate, but the chicken could be cut with a fork. I will be back, and Amaro's Table delivered with food, service and the general vibe.

    Old fashioned

    Recently came here for my mom's 80th bday. Anne Marie was able to handle our group of 10 with ease. She was super knowledge with the menu and cocktails as well. Everyone raved about the meal including shared apps we had for the table. Some of the highlights were the hush puppies, pretzel with cheese fondue, Brussel sprouts and toast with preserves and cheese. The salmon I ordered was perfectly cooked and the old fashioned with local bourbon was a great compliment. They brought out some ricotta donuts for the bday girl and I also had a slice of key lime pie (which was probably the best I've had). Thanks so much for making this birthday dinner a truly memorable one!!

    First off, I love the downtown location. There were lots of parking options nearby. Coming inside, the team was super friendly. The table in front of the fireplace was clearing up and we asked if we could get that one. They cleaned it off really fast and got us seated. I ordered an old fashioned and it was smooth! Very tasty. I got the happy hour burger and a plate of fries. The burger was cooked well and has a great seasoning. The toppings were nice and fresh. The French fries were fantastic, a perfect golden brown and were complimented by the aioli. Overall a great experience! Great service, great food, great location!

    Their martini kicks @$$!

    I'm surprised I haven't gotten a review in for Amaro's yet... my bad! This review is at least 3-years overdue! Amaro's is tucked away at 12th and Main in downtown Vancouver. We discovered it on a cold rainy night in 2022 and loved it from our first visit. We haven't often sat in the actual restaurant... we're usually found perched up in the bar. The bartenders are all very friendly and service is on-point. They make a mean martini. Their food is excellent, never had something I didn't like. I particularly the chicken sandwich and marsala. Both are solid options. Their house salad + a side of ranch slaps! They offer a reverse happy hour starting at 9pm, which we admittedly take advantage of quite often. This is one of the most consistent restaurants in all of Vancouver and comes highly recommended from us!

    Me and 2 friends came at about 7pm on Sunday for a cocktail, we walked in and immediately were greeted but the host said "can I help you?" Rather than "welcome, how many in your party" blah blah, which I thought was odd. Nonetheless we were seated at the bar, male bartender was attentive, and make excellent drinks! We will be back for food another day, but the drinks were good, the vibe was good, very relaxing and cozy feeling!

    Another great experience here at their downtown location. Super cool decor and upscale vibe inside. Staff is super friendly, helpful and accommodating. Love how light and bright everything is inside. So many windows! A group of 10 of us stopped in for drinks after having dinner nearby. We asked to sit in the bar and luckily they had an open table available to accommodate all of us. This downtown location is much smaller than the one in Hazel Dell. It was a Saturday night around 7:30, so we were grateful they had room for us. We ordered a variety of their signature cocktails, including a couple non alcoholic ones for the drivers. All cocktails were delicious and had lovely presentations. My only gripe was someone (the bartender?) was messing with the chandelier lights while we were there and it made it odd when trying to have a conversation. I'm not completely sure what was going on. We really enjoyed our time here while catching up with friends. We'll definitely add this place to our monthly get together rotation!

    Corn Fritters

    Great vibes & service. I love the music playing here and the decor. Came here for happy hour and there's a nice selection of menu options- drinks and food.

    Brownie w/ Raspberry Sauce & Ice Cream
    K. David M.

    Service: 10/10 Environment: 9/10 Cleanliness: 10/10 Food: 8/10 (See below) First time here: No Sixth to seventh time here...3rd in the last year or so. Bill before tip: $108 In looking back at my last review it seems I had almost the same meal as before (which I did not intend) & many of my observations there are still relevant, so I will only update here. I went with an appetizer which I rarely do alone as in almost never. The fritters were a fantastic melt in your mouth with a crispy outer texture delight & the honey butter was just sweet enough, but you want to make sure you have a nice amount on each bite. This time at the suggestion of my server, I upgraded to the prawns for a surf & turf which turned out to be a fantastic upsell as the prawns were the star of the show. I went with the seasoned over the blackened as I figured with a prepared steak lacking any real seasoning additions would be more of a grilled meaty taste & I wanted something to compliment. The prawns delivered, hands down. However, either through intention or ignorance someone or multiples there of have messed with the establishment's soda system. The Coke was flatter than 2 day old prosecco & lacked syrup. When I informed the server it was flat & maybe they should check their carbonation, they replaced it stating they believed the bag had just changed...however there wasn't a single carbonation bubble in either glass. I know people say 'I don't drink alone.' and I am one of those. This in fact may be the second time in my life I have & it is because they do serve one of my favorite wines, a riesling, which is a Sun Garden. If you like a sweet wine, then I would suggest this. They removed the dessert I had last time, which I think was a good move. When I originally sat down & considered the course of my meal I landed on either the creme brûlée or brownie with ice cream. When it came time for dessert, we discussed the various options and there were one or two which were not on the menu & this threw me. Not in a bad way, however I lost focus & forgot the creme brûlée was an option. I would have gone with the creme brûlée, but I was going from memory & since the server didn't mention it...oh well. I'm not blaming them, I simply went with the brownie & should not have. I didn't notice or remember it was a gluten free option which when it comes to baked goods mostly comprised of a gluten substance in historical recipes there is a huge difference in mouth feel & taste. The brownies are more of a fudge consistency & lack in chocolate flavor. Keep in mind I have a sweet tooth, which is one reason I like the Sun Garden mentioned above, and I barely made it through the first brownie. I resorted to the ice cream & the raspberry sauce. My suggestion would be to focus a bit more on the prawns & string beans first & then the steak & potatoes. The prawns & string beans are smaller in mass, so they will not retain their temperature as long; plus if you are going to take something home..steak & potatoes will reheat much better than leftover seafood. I hope you found this helpful & you can walk out of here for much cheaper than I did since I had a soda, glass of wine & a 3 course meal.

    Thinking of booking for new years eve, but one person in the party is Sober. Do you have or can you make some of your cocktails Non-Alcoholic? No NA options are listed on your cocktail menu.

    I don't work here but I know their bartenders will happily make up a mocktail for you.

    Are there any vegan options?

    Yes, they can modify menu items for you. Don't recall specific vegan menu items, but certainly salads and lots of vegetable side options. Check out their menu online.

    If I invite a friend who is gluten free are there menu items available?

    Yes there are gluten free items available.

    Does anyone know if they are serving for dine-in eating now?? I am driving down from Seattle for the day and wanted to meet a friend from Portland, so hoping I can find a place that's serving. Any other recommendations would be super too! Thx!!

    Just ate there several nights ago. Full menu; COVID safety is in place...so you may want to call for a reservation due to the spacing requirements. All restaurants on the water front are now serving dine-in as well. You shouldn't have any problems… 

    Why the do you come up when I search SUSHI?!?!? You DO NOT SERVE SUSHI.

    They do have sushi. It's actually very good! I've had it.

    Is the happy hour in the bar only?

    No it's all over the restaurant

    My coworkers and I love coming here for happy hour. Carolanne has been there most times we have…read moregone and been absolutely wonderful and super attentive to everyone in the bar. It's significantly quieter when we've gone - around 530pm. They have happy hour until 7pm and honestly their food is some of the better bar food I've had. Their food is $6/item for happy hour. HIGHLY recommend the sweet potato fries and fried chicken tacos. It is dark in there - so fair warning. But otherwise it's a fun atmosphere and a great place to get an after work drink.

    This place fell off hard…read more It used to be welcoming, fun, and packed with good energy. Since the new owner took over, the vibe has completely tanked. The atmosphere feels tense, people are getting kicked out for no clear reason, and it's uncomfortable just being there. The leadership shows. Rude, unwelcoming, and clearly out of touch with the crowd that built this bar in the first place. Yes, it's technically a country bar -- and that was fine. What made it work was the balance. They used to blend in other genres, which kept the dance floor full and the crowd diverse. Now it's country-only, all night, no variation. There's nothing wrong with country, but stripping away the mix that made it successful feels like a lazy, tone-deaf decision driving away a lot of customers. Security, bartenders, and DJs are still great -- they're not the problem. Ownership is. I won't be back. And judging by how empty it's getting, I won't be the only one.

    An Unexpected Downtown Vancouver Gem…read more Jordan and I stumbled across Full Heart Irish Bar last week while walking through downtown Vancouver, and it ended up being one of those places you're genuinely happy you found. From the outside, it's small and pretty unassuming. You see the tables out front and could easily assume it's just another little neighborhood bar. But once you walk through the door, the entire atmosphere changes. It opens into this cozy, beautifully decorated old-world Irish/Celtic pub with warm lighting, great character, and an impressive wall of whiskeys behind the bar. It's intimate without feeling cramped, and considering the place is only about a year old, it already has the personality and charm of somewhere that's been part of downtown for years. A big part of what made our first visit so enjoyable was our bartender, Spencer. He was welcoming from the moment we walked in, extremely knowledgeable about whiskey, and clearly enjoys what he does. He's great at making recommendations and explaining different spirits without ever making it feel overly complicated or pretentious. What also impressed me was realizing that Spencer wasn't just behind the bar -- he was also handling the food. As someone who works in the service industry myself, I appreciate how difficult it is to balance making cocktails, taking care of a full bar, keeping up with guests, and preparing food at the same time. He handled it all very well. I came back again last night and happened to walk into trivia night, which I hadn't planned on. The place was busy, I ended up winning trivia, met some new people, and had another really fun night. Even with a packed room, the service stayed consistent and the atmosphere was upbeat and welcoming. That's probably the biggest compliment I can give Full Heart: after one visit, Jordan and I already knew we'd be back. It's small, comfortable, unique, and has the kind of atmosphere that makes you want to settle in for a while instead of having one drink and leaving. Between the whiskey selection, the décor, the cocktails, the food, and genuinely good hospitality, Full Heart has quickly become one of my favorite little discoveries in downtown Vancouver. Definitely worth walking through that unassuming front door. To the owners: you have something special here, and you have one hell of a bartender representing it. People like Spencer are the reason first-time customers become regulars.

    Was served by a heavily tattooed gal. The OF I ordered was rye which I asked to be switched to a…read moretraditional bourbon, the gal acknowledges and proceeds to serve me a well old fashioned. I sent it back because it was awful, as well drinks tend to be. I tell her my preference and she proceeds to serve me two more Old Fashions of my bourbon choice. At the end I was a little tossed, and when I asked for the bill she proceeds to claim she accidentally served me an high end Rye?? ($40 a piece)?? don't know how she managed to serve me a higher end rye bourbon after I specified my disdain for ryes. She also commented on my friend having a weird smile in her ID. Overall usually love this bar however this interaction rubbed me the wrong way and I haven't been back since. Debated calling the bar but just decided to leave a review instead. Been served by the other two bartender guys and they are a lot more chill and attentive.
