Will always recommend it here.

Great Happy Hour Deals & Relaxed Sports Bar Vibe!…read more The Canadian Brewhouse has a great happy hour selection at very reasonable prices! We ordered the Chips & Queso, Cracked Pepper & Sea Salt Dry Ribs, highly recommended the R-C-M Pizza. A nice variety of food to share, and the happy hour prices made it even better! We visited on a non-game night, so it wasn't too busy, which was nice. Just keep in mind that there are TVs everywhere, so expect a fairly loud atmosphere even when it's not packed.

I tried it at the Hopscotch Festival, it was deliciousness personified and I desperately want to spread it through my family. Unfortunately, it also seems like something that is difficult to find (not a huge demand yet). It was here, in a 6-pack or a case. And they have a 4-pack of Somersby's Blackberry cider! It's like a little liquor heaven! But really, product blah blah blah. I'm going to recommend you go to this place because of the amazing service I received. The clerk actually said "hello" cheerfully when I walked in. I KNOW. Outside of Japanese restaurants, a cheerful "hello" seems to be dying out. Not only that but when I asked her about the Taiwan Beer (I wish I knew her name; she didn't have a tag on), she was pure helpfulness. When I decided on the case (I mentioned that I want to infect my family with its deliciousness, right?), she picked up the case for me and brought it to the counter. I've NEVER had a clerk do that for me. They're usually standing there, watching me fumble clumsily with it, juggling everything plus my purse. The transaction itself was quick and friendly and then she carried the case to my car. I had added a tip to the cup but at that point, I wish I had added much more. Liquor stores are a dime a dozen; good service is worth its weight in gold. Definitely recommend.

Then I met one of workers who helped me out and gave me a wealth of knowledge about everything from whiskey to sake. I wish I would've grabbed his name, but unfortunately I didn't.

Plus the store is super organized and offers everything from local Canadian Staples like Molson Canadian beer, craft beer from local breweries, whiskey's and sake's and everything in between. Only downside is a bit lacking on the mixers. Highly recommend coming here.

The Story Cafe was one the few places that are close to the airport, open early in the morning, and have a high rating. The Story Cafe does live up to the good ratings! The restaurant was spacious with lovely vintage-like decors. The food portion was generous. We had their Fly Me to The Bennies with Salmon, Crab Cake Bennies, Egg In Purgatory, and Duck Confit Hash. All dishes were delicious. I had an oat mocha and to my surprise, there's a really good latte art, which is uncommon in metro Vancouver for drinks with oat milk.

Not particularly. I took my leftovers to the airport thinking I would eat it there, but it ended up making it all the way back to LA. Their espresso martini is beyond strong.

The bartender was kind enough to change one of the two flat panel HD TVs located at the bar to the correct channel showing the game. There is free Wifi here as well. The bartender will provide you with the code to get on the wireless network - if you request it. Ordered a Canadian IPA - Alexander Keith's IPA - one of the lightest IPAs I've ever tasted. Not as hoppy as I would have expected (or liked) and it was very light in color compared to many other IPAs. It was almost like a lite beer IPA. It wasn't bad, but I'd not go out of my way to order it again. You can order food at the bar and lounge area here. Service was good.

However, even with reservations, we still has to wait quite awhile. We ordered a variety of items. What we really enjoyed was the following: both salmon aburi and tuna temaki were both very delicious and refreshing. We would definitely order these two again. The steak and frites were average and nothing stood out. Same as the espresso martini, ive has better elsewhere. I personally did not like that the hard liquor taste overpowered the espresso. Lastly, the creme brule was too sweet that we didn't even finish it. Like with all restaurants, food items can be a hit and miss. With that said, the server was nice and friendly.

Cozy restaurant offering up tasty skewers and side dishes…read more Unlike the majority of Chinese skewer places where they cook your order in the kitchen, Golden Time has a rotating skewer grill at each table so the skewers cook in front of you. It's a cool twist since you can cook the beef and lamb to your liking. Some points to keep in mind with this table grill system... The heat from the table grill isn't as hot compared to many kitchens at other skewer restaurants (they're trying their best not to sear your face while you eat, after all). Because of this, there can be a pretty substantial wait time for your skewers to properly cook, depending on what type you order (chicken and pork especially). This wait time can be a major negative if you're really hungry because you have to sit there while the delectable items are slowly rotating right in front of your face... it's almost torturous. The table grill also doesn't hold that many skewers at once, so if you're eating with a group, the wait can be even longer before you're able to consume enough of the tasty morsels to satiate your inner hunger demon. Just be sure to order enough side dishes to fill the void between skewers. On the flip side, the downtime between skewers allows for quality conversation with friends and family; although, this can also be a negative if you're there with people you don't have much to say to since the meal would then be filled with a lot of awkward silence. But assuming you're there with people whose company you enjoy, this is where Golden Time really shines--it's a great place to meet with others to catch up over some tasty grub + drinks. I've never seen the staff rush any table due to the limits of the cooking system, so you can eat and drink comfortably throughout the night (they're open late). Also, be aware that the seats in front of the grill at some tables can get pretty hot, almost unbearably so. I would place the group members who are the most heat-resistant in those spots. Service has always been friendly and prompt whenever we stop by. The meat and other ingredients are seasoned well and seem to be high quality. I start craving their food again really soon after every visit (usually the next day)... always a good sign!

Tasty but somewhat pricy skewer place on Alexandra…read more Parking is pretty awful in this area. Best of luck. The place is pretty modern and trendy. The gimmick for this place is the conveyor grill system in each table that automatically rotates (rotisserie style) the skewers. More on this later. Service is decent. Staff are friendly and helpful. Maybe a bit too helpful. More on this later as well. The ordering is all done by QR code. Load up on the items, and someone eventually brings out a tray. Good: Selection is pretty decent. Prices are a bit high but still reasonable. Skewers are tasty. The grill thing is pretty novel. Makes for some good photos. Bad: The grill system frankly isn't very good. It's chain driven to automatically spin the skewers, but a) it's way too easy to place the skewers "wrong" such that the "gears" miss the chain, and b) the gaps between the skewer "grooves" are too close together, so adjacent skewers keep smacking into each other which stops the spinning. Friends and I basically had to babysit the thing. If we used every other groove, now we can only cook half as quickly. Knock 0.5 stars off. Oh yeah, the Oh yeah, my friends and I also ordered 1 of each skewer type to try, but the staff decided to come by and start swapping the order skewers randomly when placing the skewers despite our protests. This became a problem especially with the wings, where the different flavours started to look the same after grilling. To this day I don't know if I doubled up on a flavour. Definitely was not happy about this. Knock another 0.5 stars off. The other tip would be to order the individual hot pot to help keep costs down. The skewers honestly aren't that big. Overall we were mostly satisfied, but the aforementioned stuff honestly put a damper on the entire experience.

The dishes we tried had a lot of flavour with quality ingredients, but what made our first visit to Elysium special was the staff. Everyone who helped us that night was so friendly and kind!

I'd definitely recommend this place to anyone who's looking for Korean food in Richmond.
