Stumbled upon this place via Yelp (thanks fellow Yelpers) when we were in town for a cruise. So…read moreglad that we found it as the establishment was a gem. The owner and staff were so welcoming / made our dinner even more special. Restaurant has classy, modern, and hip decor. There's also a bar area for drinks. We had several of their pasta dishes and all were very good. Nice selection of wines, which we enjoyed with our meal. We had a large party (9 people) and they did a great job of serving us - meals came out quickly and efficiently. They really added to the specialness of our group vacation.

I met a friend here last night for an early-ish dinner. Made a reservation for 5:30pm and the…read morerestaurant was practically empty, save for a few diners outside on the patio and one or two occupied tables inside. The interior was super cute but small/intimate. This would be a good place to go on a date night as the volume inside wasn't deafening; you could easily carry on a conversation with your dining partners (surprisingly, I can't say this about many restaurants lately - especially in Yaletown!). The center of the restaurant is occupied by a bar-island. You'd think with a name like "Alchemy" that they'd be known for their cocktail concoctions here but, IMO, this cute place is more of a pasta/bistro/pub than a cocktail lounge. Their alcoholic beverage menu seemed more run-of-the-mill standard to me. Here are the positives: -the staff here are AMAZINGLY nice and attentive. Like, SO nice and friendly! -there's a pretty fast turnover time between ordering and receiving your foods and drinks. -as mentioned above, the restaurant is cute and intimate, there's a nice patio, and the interior volume is very reasonable. -they have a really good happy hour menu, and it's every single day, from 3-6pm. -they have a daily special, including "pasta Monday", where every pasta dish costs $17.95. -their everyday menu is pretty varied with quite a few options for "pub" food (i.e., pasta and pizza, chicken wings and burgers, and mains that include steak and salmon and chicken). Their desserts look pretty decent, too. (The creme brûlée sounds particularly good!). We were there for Happy Hour, so I got a glass of excellent pinot Grigio and my friend ordered a Malbec (or two!), and we shared a Margherita pizza and some tortilla chips with artichoke dip. The presentation of the chips and dip was amazing (a neighboring table had ordered this dish and it looked so good, we had to order it too). And both the pizza and the chips and dip were really good. Really good. The only reason I'm deducting a star is because there was a dirty napkin on the floor by my feet. That was kinda a turn-off for me. The rest of the table and restaurant were very clean. It was just this one dirty napkin. (I took a photo, attached). (Wish there was a way to just deduct half a star TBH). This was a fun local place, with very reasonable prices for good bistro-like fare, and the staff here was fantastic. I'd definitely return.

Very cool spirit lounge with a a unique decor and funky cocktails…read more A bit spooky from the outside and very mysterious on the inside. The menu has a lot of fantastic cocktails. They are all a bit expensive but there is a happy hour so it can be a bit more affordable. The cocktails come with a nice tarot card. If you want to bring your friends to experience something different this is the perfect place. We loved our cocktails and will be back to try more.

Our long travel day ended here. We were super excited as the place was highly recommended to us,…read morebut we ended up being very disappointed. We were a walk-in party of 4 given a 90 minute wait. I was over it, but we put a name down and walked down to find a bar for a drink and bites. They sent us a notification 30 minutes earlier than quoted so we finished up at the bar, paid our tab and walked over. We were seated in the corner area that only had one other table neighbor. Our drinks were great. The presentation even more entertaining. None of us were particularly hungry, but the table decided to get the donuts. Let me just first mention that it was dark af in there. We got two orders so that two people could share one. I took two bites and knew something was off. My friend took a bite and immediately said it didn't taste right. The other side took a bite of theirs and said the same thing. One person decided to turn the flashlight on their phone and flashed it at both plates to see what exactly was wrong. Them donuts were burnt. Fully. We called our server over who confirmed they were in fact burnt and told us she would take them off the bill. It was a bummer to have this be the end of our first day in the city.

Came to check out this brewery and absolutely loved everything from this spot…read more We tried 8 different beers, and every single one was great- fresh, and unique flavours like pina colada, cherry cola, and even pico de gallo! We also tried tacos and burritos and they were so good! The Tacos tasted like authentic street tacos from Mexico- highly recommended trying them! The guacamole 100/10!!! I also Loved the white and blue Talavera-style ( Mexican style tiles) through the space- such a beautiful touch. Oh and the staff were super helpful! We'll definitely be back!!

The cold brew coffee beer was hands down my favorite so I hope they carry it all year round as it's not just a spring/summer beer IMO. The chicken tacos were quite good too - lots of flavour. They had a couple of seats outside where you can keep your dog, but the place is quite small and does get busy on evenings and weekends. This is my new favorite brewery in North Van. Can't wait to come back!

He sees if they can accommodate - and then up an elevator you go (although we did learn they take reservations as well). There's both inside and outside seating. The seating is well appointed and comfortable. Drinks: Coked Up and Parker Chocolate Orange. Both were decadent. Coked up a bit sweet for my taste, but unique and was worth ordering. We had the Fish and Chip Cones. They're part of the Happy Hour Menu. They were an interesting fusion of sushi meets fish and chips. We've checked out various happy hour spots in Vancouver over the years. Most aren't worth the hype or sadly have gone out of business over the years. This one... we'll be back on our next visit to Vancouver. We'd probably also call for reservations as we got one of the last two tables!
