    citrus tartelette

    Everything went well tonight! When we arrived, resto was still quiet. We got the full attention service. Server gave us good recommendations and was chatty and also humorous. This time, I have a great appreciation for the ambiance - romantic, cozy and elegant. Food was very good. Everything was done right. We were here to celebrate an anniversary and the food was up to the celebratory vibe.

    Hawksworth Restaurant was the perfect choice to celebrate our 10-year anniversary. My wife and I loved the cozy, warm atmosphere and the beautifully decorated space. The staff were friendly, attentive, and genuinely welcoming, and the sommelier did an excellent job helping us select a wine that perfectly complemented our meal. The salmon tartare, risotto, and mixed green salad were all delicious, and the pork and scallops were an absolute 10/10. A beautiful restaurant and an unforgettable dining experience. We are so glad we went.

    This is another restaurant I've always wanted to try. Located in the Rosewood Hotel Georgia, it gives off an old-school steakhouse vibe with dark wood paneling, featuring light quartz tabletops and white leather / light wood chairs. There is an elegant glass "chandelier" in the center of the room. I started with a double 1908 Empress gin & tonic ($20) while I went through the menu. I opted for the Parfait of Foie Gras & Chicken Livers ($37) and the Hawksworth Classic Burger ($29). I had a glass of Henriot Champagne ($19 at 50% off) with my parfait. Surrounded by apple jelly and served with toast points, the terrine was sublime! I ordered a glass of Lafarge pinot noir ($40) to accompany my burger. The patty was perfectly cooked, augmented by bacon, an onion ring, and a slice of cheddar. The accompanying fries were perfect. I ended my meal with a cup of coffee ($7). The bill came to $167.41CAD + tip, not inexpensive but worth it, to me. The next time I'm in town, I'll go for dinner.

    Came here for a work event. Food was okay but I wish it had been out of this world. Dinner was supposed to start at 6 pm but starters came at 7:40, mains at 8:10, and dessert at 9:15 pm. Beautiful presentation; small portions. Acoustics are also a bit wacky. Super loud in some corners without music, then they were playing dance music in our corner of the room. Hard to hold good conversations when shouting at each other at the same table. Loved the hotel and convenience of going up and down the elevator to the room but wouldn't be on my top list for restaurant choices. I wasn't footing the bill otherwise I think it would probably be a 3 for value. Had some grapes when I got home.

    10/10 service and 10/10 food. This place will give you so much attention and they will always adjust or modify to your needs. I was so impressed by their burger as the ingredients tasted so fresh. Only downside is that they got our fries order wrong, reg fries instead of truffle BUT they ended up giving us potato salads on the house. So it was still WORTH IT.

    My uncle was in town and got the pleasure of going with him to try fine dining at Hawksworth. We tried the seasonal tasting menu. Good things first! The waiters were very attentive and not much time passed between the presentation of each dish. Reading other reviews I was concerned about the ambiance but it wasn't loud at all (granted we were sat in a corner near the windows). I liked all the courses, especially the duck. Unfortunately, there was a bit of waiting for someone to get us at the door and it wasn't a super busy night. As fine dining usually goes, the servings were very small. It's nice to get a little of everything but I definitely left still hungry. While everything was good, there wasn't anything that stuck out to me that I'd actually recommend for its value. Probably a really great restaurant for an upscale date spot or business dinner. The items on the a la carte menu are most likely larger but for me, it was pretty average as far as fine dining goes.

    Hawksworth restaurant is an upscale dining experience that offers creative cuisine with an emphasis on fish. There is a nightly tasting menu, but we opted for à la cart selections in order to try more items. We started with the chips and dip and the bread service, both were good choices to get warmed up for our starters. All of the starters were excellent. We had asparagus soup, steelhead tartare served on endive, and Burrata cheese. Our entrées included Lamb, Seabass, and Hamachi (which was served raw, but with a broth poured over it). We all liked the entrées, but I don't think they were as good as the starters. Service throughout was friendly and professional. There is an extensive wine list from a broad range of countries, but with no depth of vintage.

    We came here for their pre-fixe menu. Overall, pretty solid, but nothing was exceptional. In addition to the pre-fixe menu I ordered their fois gras-- in my opinion that was the best dish of the night. The ambiance is lovely and the service was outstanding.

    Red pepper gazpacho
    Stephanie M.

    We came on a Tuesday for lunch. We got the lunch set. Which consisted of the following: Red pepper gazpacho - very refreshing - essentially a cold vegetable soup with crunchy vegetables. Nice contrast of textures and flavours. Red pepper really stood out in this dish. 36 hour beef short rib - main dish was a little bit of a let down for me. The crispy onions weren't crispy enough and the sauce on the beef short rib was a little too sweet for me. The blue cheese helped balance this out a big but would have appreciated more lemon vinaigrette. Lemon verrine was the highlight of the 3 courses. It was sour and sweet and made me want more. The almond crumble and tuile added that perfect crunch. Very refreshing and delicious. Overall: I've been to Hawksworth on 3 different occasions. Twice for lunch and once for happy hour. It's a place that guarantees good service and a good time. The food can be a hit or miss sometimes but you can tell they've put in the effort in creating their dishes. Would recommend the lunch tasting menu for anyone who wants to get a sample of what Hawksworth is all about

    When you get considered one of the top restaurants in Canada, you better be up for it. Having been here twice now, I felt this rating is far more than fair. The Hawksworth is dressed up to be elegant and to offer one of Vancouver's best fine dining experiences. However, after tonight's visit, my disappointment was reaffirmed. Let's not beat around the bush here, the food is fine - but it's really nothing special. Another sad example of a has-been culinary gem that Vancouver can't let go of. Sad, lacking innovation and boring - really giving the PNW a bad reputation. To have a menu with only 7-8 entrees, it really is unacceptable to have your waiter come up to you halfway through dinner and saying the option you opted for is not available. Just goes to show the lack of management going on between the kitchen and the wait staff. Also, please don't bring my starters to me after my entree is almost consumed. To summarize, the Hawksworth has become a place you smile and say "dinner was great" just to appease yourself after you spent (or wasted) your money and your evening just to keep up with the illusion of what it once was.

    My mother and I celebrated my bday on our trip to Vancouver at Hawksworth. The service was top notch and the food was amazing. I highly recommend this place and although I am a whiskey person I would recommend trying their cocktails! I would give the service 10 stars if I could!

    Another amazing meal from Hawksworth. The food is so delicious and the presentation is out of this world. The baked Alaska was a treat to see as well as so tasty, it's a definite must if you like baked Alaska or dessert!! The service was impeccable as well. Love this place and if you are having a special occasion or just want a fine meal go to Hawksworth, they won't disappoint you.

Every time I come, I can feel the professionalism and attentiveness of the staff. From seating to ordering, and then to the care during the meal, everything is done with great finesse, making me feel comfortable and at ease. The unique politeness and meticulousness of Japanese service are naturally reflected here. The food is also a reason I want to come back. Whether it's the freshness of the ingredients, the presentation, or the taste, you can feel the attention to detail. Japanese cuisine emphasizes the quality of the ingredients themselves, and Miku presents this refinement beautifully. Every dish is pleasing to the eye and has a layered flavor. I also love the ambiance. The overall design is simple, elegant, and has a very comfortable Japanese aesthetic. The lighting, seating, and spatial layout all create a relaxing atmosphere without feeling overly decorated; instead, they have a high-quality feel. As for the atmosphere, I think it's what makes this place so special. Elegant and quiet, yet not too formal, it's suitable for dates or enjoying a good meal with friends. Sitting there slowly eating and chatting makes the whole dining experience particularly comfortable. After several visits, I still feel that Miku is a restaurant worth returning to again and again. It's not just because of any one dish, but because the service, cuisine, environment, and atmosphere combine to create a very pleasant experience every time I come.

I thought it was a nice change of scenery to be honest also I did miss some items I originally wanted and planned to try. There were some of the main dishes, like the bowls, and also mainly udon. The chicken karaage was extremely tender and fresh, you could tell because it was hot which was nice! The udon in both the curry and rose cream udon was very soft and tender as well, tender than what I usually have for udon. If you like your noodles al dante I don't think it'll quite fit your taste but I personally really enjoyed it! As for the taste the spicy rose cream udon tasted exactly like Buldak Ramen's Carbonara flavor, and everyone at my table agreed. The garlic bread was nice tho. To be completely honest staff and workers aren't very attentive, the restaurant wasn't full and I could see the workers standing around. Our table had to ask for water multiple times. Other than that however they're very kind.

I made reservations about 4 months in advance. Upon arrival, one of the hostesses opened the door for us, and asked us to wait in a very ornate waiting area. We only waited a couple of minutes before another hostess seated us at the main seating area. The space is very dark, and only lit with candles while the rest of the diners trickled in. During that time they take drink orders, which is limited to sake, wine, beer and a few non-alcoholic drinks. Of note, they don't provide a drink menu, so we were a little surprised by the cost - the yuzu sake and the plum wine were $30 each. My non-alcoholic drink was $12, but a fair size. The theatrical portion started a few minutes later than the official start time - closer to 6pm. The shades lifted, the lights turned on, and the chefs introduced themselves. And from that moment on, they immediately went to work preparing our meal. They operate like clockwork to show the ingredients whole to the diners, and then preparing them, and serving them. Soon as the one dish was completed by all the diners, the next round came shortly after. Over 20+ dishes, there was very little wait time in between each. Each time a dish was served, a hostess was there to describe the dish and provided tips on how best to eat it. The food was overall was very good. I thought a few items were very average, most of them were very good, and a select few were truly outstanding. Most of the ingredients are imported from Japan, so I would imagine that it's part of the reason it's so expensive. This is definitely a splurge meal. I think half the diners at our sitting was celebrating a birthday. On the most part, the food is very good, watching the chefs at work is part of the entertainment, and the service is excellent. It's not some place I could afford to go to often, but glad to do it at least this one time.

You start in a small waiting room thoughtfully decorated with cultural touches before being welcomed into an intimate dining area that seats only about 12-14 people. The service was attentive and personal throughout. When it came to drinks, they first asked what we generally enjoyed rather than immediately pushing specific options. Once we narrowed it down to dry sake, our server kindly brought over several bottles and gave us a detailed explanation of each one before we made our choice. Lunch consisted of around 15 courses, with most served nigiri-style. Everything tasted incredibly fresh, and I loved the thoughtful combinations of flavors and textures throughout the progression. Each piece felt distinct without trying too hard to be complicated.The experience finished beautifully with ice cream and matcha--a simple, elegant ending to a memorable meal. Absolutely worth the drive from Seattle. This wasn't just lunch; the intimate setting, pacing, presentation, and hospitality made the whole experience feel special from beginning to end.
