    So it's been about 5 years since being back here so felt like some Primerib. Booked the Reservations via OpenTable which was extremely easy.. got to the restaurant 20 minutes early and other than us there were only a handful of tables occupied. The lady running the Bar received us right away and was very accommodating as to where we'd like to seat.. not much has changed over the years other than this young lady who was attentive plus gave some good commentary of her recommendations .. the tacos came really quick but given that there were hardly any customers..the cod tacos were served on a soft tortillas some raw cabbage, the battered cod stick and some sauce.. served 3 to a plate ( thank goodness it was a happy hour item at 25% off)... the Primerib showed up not too long afterwards .. it wasn't hot .. but more tender than the previous times I came.. served with 5!small pieces of oven roasted potatoes.. 3 small sprigs of Broccoli and two small sprigs of cauliflower ($34.95).. all in all a moderate improvement on the food but the service was good. Who knows how long before coming back but given I spent about $100 including tips but no drinks .. eh I'm not going to be in any rush back

    This place is hit or miss. I don't know if it's the menu or the cooks that keep changing, but it's not for the better. In the past I've had awesome veggie pizza from here, but it's no longer on the menu it seems. The margarita pizza is good but way smaller then before. I've always had excellent chicken wings, but the last time I had them, they were very fatty, had little flavour and only gave us 12 not 13. They also gave us 3 of the smallest pieces of wilted celery I've ever seen. This last order was placed for take away. Even though I had called it in and came to pick it up for the time quoted, I still had to sit and wait an additional 20 mins before or was ready. At least they have comfy couches to sit on. It's right in the casino, so it is rather noisy. The service has always been pleasant. The drinks leave something to be desired.

    I tried the Dine Out Vancouver menu at BC Kitchen with a group of friends. They have a lot of tables that can accommodate large groups. There were several large TV screens showing sports, giving it a sports bar feel. The food was good, but nothing was particularly noteworthy. I ordered a seafood chowder, a harissa crusted salmon entree with couscous, and sticky pudding. The entree was small. Service was friendly and attentive. Note: the restaurant is inside the casino. Overall, BC Kitchen is fine; however, there are better restaurants downtown, so I would only recommend BC Kitchen if you are already in the casino.

    I came here for dinner before a hockey game. I was pretty happy with the service we received. We were seated right away even though the restaurant was fairly busy, and were greeted by a server shortly after sitting down. The server had quite a few tables and was very good at taking care of them all/checking in to make sure we were okay. I ordered the southwest taco salad (no dressing, cheese or taco crisps, as I can't have gluten or dairy and wanted a salad). We also got the burger with cheddar cheese and a side of fries. My salad was standard; not very special ($13.50), and the burger ($12.50) was okay. I took a bite of the patty and it seemed kind of dry/like it was frozen. I'm grateful the parq casino has affordable dining options, but was kind of disappointed by the quality of the food.

    I decided to check out this joint because it is in my hotel and after a day of travel I didn't feel like going anywhere, convenient I know... anyway this is a little sports bar in the casino area of the JW Marriott Parq in downtown Vancouver BC. It's got a nice vibe which I really liked, and the hostess and server were extremely welcoming. As I browsed the menu it was really simple, which I appreciate. I don't like to feel like I'm reading a book when I'm hungry, and I don't really read much anyway! Haha, anyway they have your standard pub food and a couple of pizza options. I decided on the Montreal smoked meat sandwich. If you've never had it before, I would equate it to pastrami. The sandwich presentation was awesome, and it smelled amazing! I started with the fries because I am weird and have to finish all my fries before anything else. Anyway, it came with a cup of coarse grain mustard, some house made slaw and a couple of pickles as well. I put a healthy serving of the mustard and slaw on the top my first half and picked it up... this is where things kind went south. The bread is not toasted, I repeat the bread is not toasted. Now normally this wouldn't be a huge deal if it was like a hearty bread roll, but this was a delicious like whole wheat sourdough. Bread that's not toasted and hot deli meat do not mix well, the bread gets pretty soggy. And then when you add the slaw that makes it worse. But I digress, the bread was amazing tasting! The meat was great, and when mixed with the mustard and slaw makes a great sandwich. Almost like a mock rueben if you will minus the Russian. Overall it wasn't anything special, and I wish I would have known the bread wasn't toasted. I will definitely go back and try something else though!

    I will be updating and reviewing more items, but my first order 2 go was disappointing despite washing it down with a glass of $14 house wine (Mission Hill Pinot Noir) at Lotus Whiskey/Tea Lounge upstairs. The $4 fries were okay, but the $13 Chinese Chicken salad dressing was too salty, so use it sparingly. My friend thought his $11 Southwest Taco Salad was underwhelming. We went with the healthiest items on their menu, but unfortunately we won't be trying them again. My friend had the $6 burger and said it was well put together! Soft bun, nice patty, nice sauce. He gave it a 5/5! This place has been open under 1 week so I imagine it will only get better!

    Personally it's not my taste of food. Don't get me wrong it's not bad food just not my type. I probably wouldn't go back to this restaurant. Just because of the over priced prices, 11$ for one shot ELEVEN. I thought that was waaaaay to expensive. My bf on the other hand was in love with the grilled ham and cheese, he devoured that sandwich. He gives the place a 4/5

    Food keep standard. Always good. Feel they change the coffee from illy to other brands.

    I thought the food here was fairly average to be honest. No serious wow man deal but no real complaints either. Just typical pub food. Edible and filled the spot but the waiter was a bit snarky

    We tried the Dine Out menu for lunch last week and the food was way better than we anticipated. In fact the chicken pakoras my friend ordered tasted better here than at a well known Indian restaurant I went to the next day! Deliciously crispy outside, juicy on the inside. The beer cheese soup was very smooth and the beer taste not too over powering, I dare say this tasted better than a famous restaurant in Prague that I tried which specialises in the dish. The salmon might not be the most mind blowing, I would say some more sauce flavouring would make it better. The caramel crunch cake was a bit too sweet for my taste. Service overall was excellent, very attentive and timely. The spilled water from the kettle got my napkins wet and the server quickly replaced them without me even saying a thing. Now that's proper service!

My second drink was spreadsheet (beefeater, st. germain, lime, strawberry syrup, green strawberry bitters). I enjoyed this drink better as it wasn't too sweet and the flavor profile was more to my taste when it comes to cocktails. I'm happy to have found another bar to add to my list of places to grab a good drink in Vancouver.

For dinner we shared a diavola pizza and smoked salmon parpadelle. The pizza was good but the crust was soggy. The salmon parpadelle was good but I think it would have been better with another pasta - spaghetti, linguine or fettucine as the pasta could not be twirled with a fork and spoon and had to be cut up. The service was excellent. When our server Malaka heard that we were coming in from Abbotsford she said that she would give us the "best seat in the restaurant". When we opted to sit on the patio she gave us a complimentary tiramisu as a thank you. It was such a kind gesture. It was a nice relaxing evening and we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves.

Perfect for a date night, casual social event with friends/coworkers. The servers really made the experience though--attentive, kind, and quick without ever rushing us. Definitely a place I'd come back to again (and again). Happy hour at Bartholomew is highly recommended!

If you're looking for a comfortable,quiet, and cosy bar this is not the place for you. This is a place where Vancouverites get dressed up in their finest dark washed jeans.

Celebrity sightings are not totally uncommon here, the servers are all friendly and quick to bring your drinks, and you're guaranteed plenty of beautiful people eye-candy. It's also a bar targeting a slightly more mature age group with their larger disposable income - so no annoying teeny boppers knocking back B-52's here and whoohooing it up. One shocking thing I discovered on my last visit to OPUS Bar, was that they aren't allowed to do "real" bottle service there. So if you order a bottle of Goose for the table, be prepared to have your server take it away and bring it back out only when requested or when glasses start to go empty - thankfully Champagne & Wine are exempt from this strange rule.
