    I like the selection of the white wines they have
    Amanda S.

    This was my second time going here. I brought my close friends from out of town to show them around the area. We walked in and we were seated n greeted right away. My friends who loves wine said they have good selection of wine and was happy with it. For me as Im not a huge wine person. I know I like mascato and rose. They had us sample some wine before we ordered. The lady who helped us was very friendly and did good service. The atmosphere was nice with a spectacular view of the waterfront. My friends from California told me they loved it that they would come back again.

    A friend of ours has a membership to this winery, and invited us to spend a weekend afternoon taking in the late winter sun, sipping on flights of whites and nibbling away at choice charcuterie cuts, nuts and cheeses. If the wines themselves here don't make your cheeks as rosy as a rosé, their names will! Plenty of bawdy slang and double entendré slung about (although I preferred it when this place was called "Naked" winery), so leave your prudishness at home where it belongs! Name change not withstanding, they certainly haven't stripped anything away from the quality of service and the deliciousness of the wines themselves. I'm not into reds very much, so I stuck to the white flight and ended with a glass of the Evocativity rosé. Our server and hostess, whose name I have shamefully forgotten, was wonderful from start to finish, as is usual here, or at any Evoke tasting room. There are lots of great wineries and tasting rooms at the Vancouver Waterfront, but none of them are anywhere as much fun as Evoke! A visit here is guaranteed to be the best *bang* for your buck...among other things.

    In town for a short 24 hours. Stayed next door . Saw this tasting room and was drawn in. Greeting warmly by Shelly. She was wonderful. I chose the black label flight. And a cheese plate for one. Loved each one. Had a glass of Tempranillo as well. It was a beautiful day and everyone was out and about. Shelly attended to everyone with a smile . Her knowledge of the wines was spot on. Can't wait to return.

    They chose a great day to open up

    Prosecco fairies .... making people tipsy ,loud and lairy ! The wines at Evoke will make you blush because ....well for me personally coz of tannins ! but the names ..gosh they are hilarious and evocative and the wines (most of them at least) stand up to their fun names . We picked the red wine tasting flight and I also got a glass of Cab sauv and some nibbles. The wines were good, snacks were blah but it was a gorgeous day and nothing was going to ruin it for me. Service was a tad bit overzealous but heyy if thats your vibe you would love it here. They had a good mix of red and white but not too much variety imo.

    Red/premium red

    Great waterfront spot for wine. Had the premium red and the normal red tasting. Pretty solid all in all - the cab and the barbera were stand outs. $15/ $25 for 5 tastes normal/ premium. The location and view make it 4 stars. There are tons of other wine tasting options once you're here too!

    The most amazing hostess and (hopefully soon) next Tasting Room Manager? Sonika!

    TL:DR - Sonika is amazing and made Evoke a ton of fun! Definitely check out their new Vancouver Waterfront location and say HI! I had been a member of Evoke for about 15 years and recently ended my membership earlearlier in the year. Mostly due to the fact I couldn't keep up with drinking all the wine I had been receiving but also some issues with orders being changed when they transitioned their Point-Of-Sale systems over. All that to say, my boyfriend and I visited this location, and we're greeted by the most amazing host ever, Sonika! Once we were greeted and sat, she was on top of our flights and a great conversationalist. We'd assumed she was the Tasting Room Manager, and when we asked she told us she wasn't, we were shocked! She made the visit amazing, and definitely needs to be concerned for that role in the future. The wine thethere is always good, and the vibe was fantastic. Thanks to Sonika being the fantastic host she was, I'm contemplating starting my membership up again because of our interactions with her.

    Walked in with a friend that's a member, both our first time going to this winery and the moment we walked in we were greeted, given menus and told to sit wherever. Once we took a seat and chose the flights we wanted, it was a solid 10-15 minutes before the bartender came up. We were given water but not asked if we had any questions, fine, luckily we didn't. After we got our flights, we were never spoken to again. No water refill, no asking if we needed anything or enjoyed the wine we chose, mind you we were planning on buying a few bottles, but because of the terrible customer service we opted not to. Finally, the bartender came up to us when we stood up to leave because we were done. I don't believe I will be returning.

    Had a fun wine tasting with some really good wine. JC was attentive and great with the kids. Just ask for chocolate or fishies.

Was ready to buy dinner and at least one bottle of wine. but not today. Jared I was told was the waitstaff assigned to our table I never got to meet him. I've been to the other location totally good experience but although it's a nice building here it's uncanny how much you can be invisible at a restaurant. This is the worst experience I have ever had a restaurant anywhere. Speaking as a decade Yelper I don't like this type of review. But it's clear they need to work on customer service. At the time of this review we have been at the table 50 minutes with no table service response whatsoever. Staff walks past us. By contrast at the bar two staff members were helpful and pleasant and they were a sharp contrast to the other staff members we had seen. There was also a nice gentleman in a purple shirt that spoke to me when I had gone to get a menu, he appeared to be hosting but wasn't available when we arrived. I do not recommend this Willamette valley vineyards location *update, Jared did show up to the table 1 1/2 hours after we arrived. Maybe he was busy, but sadly he walked past us more than 7 times ( I stopped counting). He offered to bring me more water, I declined. He asked if we wanted anything but since we are leaving in ten minutes there's no point. Disappointed at least I'm confident that Jared was assigned to our table. Maybe he was having an off day. Question ‍ would you try this place again if you had my experience?

The tasting room at the waterfront is charming and honey, and staff always make you feel very comfortable and appreciated and well served As a winery tasting room, you may purchase whole bottles of wine, you may purchase glasses of select bottle bottles, and you may purchase tasting flights. All of the above is subject to change on a weekly basis, of course. They also offer snacks, also on a rotating basis. Very highly recommended, it's a great way to kill most of an hour if you happen to be on the waterfront and want to do something a little different. They are in a cluster with three other tasting rooms, so you can compare and contrast. Occasionally, there are promotions, where if you visit some number of them there is some kind of reward. Go check it out!

    The Burnt Bridge Tasting Room is one of the better winery tasting rooms in the Vancouver area. The…read moreroom itself is cozy - there's a bar, there is an open seating area and then there is a kitchen/bar area that my GF describes as "the kitchen of her dreams" - that's where the catering magic happens If you like bold reds, Burnt Bridge is the place to be. Their whites are also exceptional, but vastly outnumbered by the reds. You can buy flights, you can buy glasses, you can fill growlers (!) or you can buy bottles/cases. I've been a member of their wine club for several years. As a club member, you get discounts on bottle and case purchases, you get several free tastings a month. On my last visit, my GF and I came in for a tasting, and got a snack while we were at it. I try to do this at least twice a month - being mindful that I'm likely to wind up walking out with more wine than I can drink in a month. I won't leave specific tasting notes on the wine, other than to note that it's all pretty exceptional. The snacks are variable, but always tasty. The pairings inevitably work well with the wines that are on the tasting flights on offer at any given time The staff is exceptionally friendly, and knowledgeable about both the wine and various events that are hosted at the facility. There are three or four events a month ranging from origami to trivia to karaoke... It all varies, it's all fun. Highly recommended!

    Well, you know by my previous reviews, I'm always a supporter of local. At the recommendation of…read morefriends, we were made aware the (former?) owners of Burnt Bridge Cellars lived in our neighborhood. Of course, that meant we had to give it a try. Cool winter day, we decided to pop in for a flight mid-afternoon. Not full from lunch, not hungry for dinner, we decided to order their charcuterie bard. What they brought to our table did not disappoint! Brie, breads, jams, nuts, dried fruits, grapes... THE WORKS! The wine flight they brought was nicely presented and decently poured. We did enjoy trying the local wines, always good to enjoy your locally grown grapes in a glass of vino! Price was super fair considering how large the charcuterie board was and the nice pours. This is a great spot to check out on a random afternoon when you're looking to burn some time. The ambiance is warm and welcoming witha lovely staff!
