It's definitely gone down hill to say the least. We came on an evening to a near empty restaurant. Service felt slow, nice ish but slow. Had an encounter with Keon (don't know how to spell his name) but he was certainly rude and dressed like a manager - and if he is he is not a good one. Food took 35 minutes to come and I inquired if our food was on the way. He just said I think it's coming now and gestured to a waiter behind him but it was for a different table. So I asked is the kitchen busy? He's like "uh I guess I can check". Then after he spoke to our waiter and felt like he was speaking about me asking about the wait time because he was looking at me and whispering. This is probably one of the worst interactions I've had dining here.
Great resto is the hotel lobby!! Super friendly waitstaff and a great sunny patio outside. Both our meals were amazing and light - the perfect thing after a long day of travel.
Was pleasantly surprised with the food here. The steak wasn't that tender but it had good flavour. The sable fish was moist but it needed seasoning. The banana cake was MASSIVE and that one was good. Service was great and the place was cosy and rustic . Great spot for hanging out with friends
Dessert only review- Stopped in for dessert before heading to our room at the Douglas autograph hotel. The decor and vibe is high-end comfortable. The freshly made churros are delicious, served with caramel and chocolate sauce. The brookie (brownie with chocolate chip cookie) was good too! Our server was super friendly too!
Attending a convention in the Parq hotel we stopped in at this restaurant looking for some lunch. The service was very attentive, the space kind of cool, although quite loud with ambient noise. All three of us ordered the Cobb salad which didn't really make for a decent cross section of offerings to critique. The salad itself was plentiful and tasted great with the bacon a big highlight. The lettuce was a bit on the large side of size wise. Wish I could offer more insight, but this is all I got on this one.
We were there for the pasta sunday. this was our second time there for the pasta which our first time there was approx 1 year ago we feel that the overall service and food quality went downhill significiantly. there were 4 of us and we each ordered the sunday pasta set with a couple more appetitzers to share. The appetitzers took almost 30min to arrive and the caesar salad arrived fairly watery. after the appetitzers, the pasta came approx 1 hr later. Our server didnt notice the delayed of the food and we had to ask her twice for updates. When the pasta finally came, 3 out of 4 of them were lukewarm and the only hot one, seafood linguini, was very watery. we spent over 2 hours for the meal in which most of the time was spent waiting. I also have some concerns about the food safety of the servers as well. Not only did we see a short hair server consistently running his hands through his hair in between bringing out foods without handwashinf, there was also a service with very long hair (up to her lower back) without hair being tied up. Her hair can easily swipe onto the food without noticing. seeing the significant decrease in the quality and service, i dont think i will recommend this restaurant anymore
Very pretty restaurant with comfortable seating. Good service and friendly staff. The Korean chicken appetizer was yummy and had a nice kick with some spice. I tried the shrimp scampi for dinner and it was OK. I was hoping for larger shrimp considering we are coastal, however the shrimp included were tiny. The noodles were a flat, thicker type of noodle than I'm used to with shrimp scampi (I'm from the US). Overall, it was fine, but not my favorite. My friends shared a 10oz steak meal and that looked amazing! The fries were crisp, asparagus fresh, and steak cooked perfectly with a nice char. I would totally get that steak meal when I go back - hopefully soon since I'm staying at the hotel this week!
We came here for breakfast while staying at JW Parq. The food here was not bad. We had another early lunch planned for the day so we went with a light breakfast and didn't get the chance to try some of the more interesting menu items. The service was also pretty good. I would be interested in giving it another try when we visit again.
Came here for a quick bite before heading to the spa. Wonderful service. Food was great. My friend mentioned that it was my birthday when she reserved. Restaurant had a happy birthday message on the table and gave us a complimentary birthday dessert.
Overall lovely high tea experience! Service was great and attentive. Loved the tea selection and assortment of offerings. The crepe was also yummy too.
A solid 3-stars for this restaurant/bar in the JW Marriott Parq Vancouver Hotel. We ate too much for lunch so didn't feel like venturing out for dinner. We opted to get some light appetizers and drinks at Honey Salt. The restaurant was pretty busy for a Saturday night. The apps we got tofino fry (fried calamari and shrimp), garlic shrimp (came with pan con tomate bread) and truffle fries were all pretty tasty. It was the perfect amount for a couple of people who weren't too hungry. I also got a special raspberry martini (made for Valentine's weekend). The drink was on the sweeter side so not to my liking. Service was a but slow due to the number of diners in the restaurant but our server made up for it with his friendliness. The restaurant has indoor and outdoor seating and a big bar. Noise level is a bit on the louder side but expected at hotel restaurants and bars.
I make it a bit of a personal goal to check out all the afternoon teas available in the area! We got the Four Points Tier, which includes the 'mini' market. Essentially, it is a platter of various roasted, raw, pickled vegetables along with some hummus dip. This market was my favourite of the afternoon tea. It feels healthy and fresh, and different from the regular scones, sandwiches, and desserts. Instead of the traditional desserts for the sweet tier, they offer a crepe with three options for the toppings. We both went with strawberry and lemon curd for that sweet and tart. The crepe is done at a station not too far from our table so we got to watch it being made. Tea selections were minimal and standard, which is helpful if you have trouble deciding like I always do. I would have liked to see one or two options unique to the restaurant, though. The atmosphere was nice and serene, with a beautiful setting. They offered to refill the teapots with hot water several times throughout our meal as well.
What a gem! We stayed at the hotel for Taylor Swift weekend and were blown away. Generally, restaurants inside hotels are overrated. This place however, was excellent! Service was top-tier, especially when we sat at the bar. Their drinks were some of the best we had - especially their espresso martinis. We had brunch here as well and the food was great - all the classics with good flavors and variety.
Breakfast is delicious!! The salmon board was plenty and sufficient for as a healthy option. The salmon cream cheese was SO tasty! The breakfast potatoes are a must--crunch and full of flavor. The sweet potato pancakes were perfectly sweet, not too overbearing, and went amazingly well with good quality maple syrup. The ambiance is welcoming for the morning with plenty of sunlight and comfort. The reason I gave 4 stars instead of 5 is because the service. Oh my goodness. There was like one server for half the restaurant. Girl was HUSTLING!! Because it was one server (and like 5 bus boys...what a weird ratio), she was zipping around like a headless chicken. She was doing her best but damn it was hard to get a hold of her. We felt bad that she was hustling and would have to ask her multiple times for things (like ketchup, or a fork...) so we would be sitting there waiting for her to come back so we can re-ask her. Food is 10/10. Perfect breakfast option. But the service definitely needs a change!! read more
We stayed at the JW Marriott in Yaletown and decided to stop here for a late lunch during Happy Hour. We ordered the Tofino fry, which consisted of calamari and shrimps. Then we ordered the Korean crispy chicken bites along with the burrato with the heirloom tomatoes. Everything came out quickly and tasted decently. We loved the brookie: brownie with cookie and the scope of salted caramel ice cream. Next time, we will definitely order two scopes of ice cream to go with the brookie. The interior of the restaurant was nicely decorated and the theme was a very clean and homey feel. There are coffered ceiling and nice wood accents on the ceiling. Our waitress did an amazing job. She came around and checked on our table often. I would recommend this place if you're in the area. read more

Had a wonderful brunch here for my birthday celebration. They were very accommodating for big groups. Good feedbacks in terms of flavour and presentations from everyone. People also really loved their Caesar cart hahaha! The brookie was a personal favourite of mine. Keep in mind that for big groups you have to order from (rotating) course menu. Some of the options we had include: 1. Avocado toast/yogurt with granola/fruit platter 2. Eggs benedict/breakfast gallete/pancake 3. Brookie /tiramisu read more

Honey Salt was on my listed for awhile and I finally had the opportunity of going there for my friend's birthday. I think this is a great spot to celebrate birthdays or special occasions given the sophisticated ambiance and cozy charm. I would describe the interior of Honey Salt as a fusion of rustic elegance and modern comfort. They had earthy tones, reclaimed wood accents, and soft lighting to create a relaxed atmosphere. To start, I ordered their mochas which were presented with cute heart and star shapes. I quiet enjoyed the mochas, it had the right amount of chocolate flavor added to the coffee. For appetizer, we got their crispy fried mushrooms, 5/5!! It was actually crispy and had good flavors. For main course, I would highly recommend their chicken parm and backyard burger. The chicken parm had a flavourful tomato sauce with crispy chicken breast. The portions were pretty big! I think no one on the table was able to finish their meal and had to take it to go. Finally, their service was splendid! Our hostess was so charming and warm. She found out that we were there for my friend's birthday and gave us complimentary cake for dessert to celebrate her. Appreciated it so much! I would definitely go back! read more
I am actually giving this restaurant 3.5 stars. We were a big group for a birthday celebration. The space is very comfy and open and nicely decorated. We were pleased to see a 3 course menu special for $42. Many of us had the 3 course menu and others orders a La carte. I went for the 3 course which included corn soup or tomato salad. For the main, all of us got seafood Bouillabaisse, which took over an hour to arrive. In general, dishes came out very slow but luckily we weren't in a rush. Our dinner took 3.5hrs!!! The Bouillabaisse was ok and not piping hot. My friend's seafood pastry was apparently quite good and had lots of seafood in it. Dessert was ice cream or Bundt cake. Service in general was slow and not attentive when the restaurant was only about 1/3 full. Friends had the seafood pie and it looked good. I'll get that next time. Chicken parm was apparently good too. Steak was cook to well done when medium rare was requested. Luckily, the restaurant redid another at medium rare as originally ordered. read more

Came here for early dinner at 5:30 and the whole restaurant was ours. They have long tables that can easily sit 8 pax. There was only one server during our time slot and she was attentive. We tried most items on the menu and most of them are delicious! read more

Nathaniel was splendid, so charming and attentive. The breakfast potatoes are a dream, perfectly fried and soft on the inside. The turmeric juice is delicious, $10 for a little bottle (silly imo, but it's the price you pay). The bowl of fruit was delicious- even though blueberries and strawberries are out of season - you'd never know. The restaurant was decked out in Christmas decor which was cute. read more

Came here for weekend brunch with some girlfriends and had a great experience. The ambiance was really nice and relaxed, making it a perfect spot to catch up. The Caesar cart was such a fun touch and the Caesar itself was really yummy, definitely recommend ordering one. Breakfast was really good and the avocado toast stood out. Service was friendly and attentive, and overall it was a great brunch spot I'd happily come back to. read more
Was not sure what to expect but was pleasantly surprised. Surpassed my expectations for sure. Whenever I'm in a hotel, I have hesitations for the food quality. However, the food here was delicious, there was live music, and the staff was friendly. Braised Beef Short rib - very soft and nice large piece Short Rib Parpadelle - decent, but did not like it as much as the braised short rib Burrata & heirloom Tomatoes - great tasting Granville Island Pasta - my favorite, little spicy, very tasty - would recommend! The seating is very open and there's a ton of room. It was not very busy at all everytime I passed by. There's plenty of seating and a bar, and ability to look out. There also happened to be live music the night I went. This is not the cheapest option, but given the hotel it is located in, it is understandably pricey. Food was great and much better than expected. Would recommend! Food: 5/5 Ambiance: 5/5 Service: 4.5/5 read more

We went to Honey Salt for Thanksgiving with our son and his family. From the very start our family was welcomed with special attention to our grandchildren. The ambience was very warm and inviting. The seating was spacious and comfortable. The waiter was very friendly and witty, engaging with all of us. We ordered the monkey bread to start for the kids, which they loved. Two of us had the Turkey dinner and two of us the pasta. The Turkey was tender and juicy, it came with a side of stuffing and veggies. The pasta was a Chicken Alfredo with a truffle sauce. The sauce was creamy and very flavorful. Both meals were fabulous. Over all our experience was excellent with great service and food. read more

Really great service by Anna. She deserves a raise! We came exactly when the restaurant opened at 7am on Sunday morning. She was the only waiter that was there at that time and had to scramble serve a really large party of 20 and all the other table. She was great and amazing and tried to be attentive as possible to everyone. The breakfast was so good. We came almost every morning when we stayed there at JW. read more
The decor here is open and beautiful, kinda of like southern style. Seems to be a popular spot for dinner. Our host and server were very kind and attentive. I enjoyed the Steamed Mussels they were perfect combination of flavor and texture. The Pacific Black Cod had so much potential because the texture was great but the flavor was so bland, the vegetable pairing with it was great. The salmon was overcooked but the side pairing was great. Overall not a bad experience had to wait a bit for our food but nonetheless I would recommend. read more
If you're looking for an amazing date night spot, Honey Salt is a must-visit spot! Not only is the atmosphere great for a romantic evening, but their food is delicious too. The "Society Chocolate & Banana Cake" is a must-have. It's absolutely divine and definitely worth a try. We Ordered: Savoury Monkey Bread $8 Run Buffalo Run $18 63 Acres New York Steak $48 Chicken Parm $36 Society Chocolate & Banana Cake $15 Food: All the dishes were 10/10. The drink was on the strong side. Con: Parking. If you are lucky you will be able to find street parking and it'll cost you less than parking under the hotel. read more
Last visit: 1/22/2023 (Dine out Vancouver) We've dined at Parq's other restaurant, The Victor, quite a few times (it's always really good) but the Mrs suggested trying Honey Salt once. Roasted Butternut Squash Soup: I'm always afraid when trying butternut squash soup that it'll be too sweet, but this was done right. Bits of crushed hazelnut gave it a nice texture, and the flavour stuck the right note between savoury and sweet. 4 stars Korean Fried Chicken Bites: anyone who's tried Korean style fried chicken will know what to expect; this being the spicy & sweet variation (not the snow cheese one). Crispy, spicy, sweet and juicy, with the addition of pickles for added dimension. I would've loved a main course version! 5 stars. 63 Acres Striploin This was a pretty thin steak, all the more amazing because I asked for medium, and they nailed it. The arugula salad was standard fare, but the truffle fries were awesome; among the best I've had without even needing garlic aoli as a crutch. 4.75 stars. Chicken & parm Good flavorful, juicy chicken. I found it just a touch underseasoned, but better under than over. 4.25 stars. Smashed Pear, our non alcoholic drink, was refreshing, if just a touch sweet. Overall 9.0/10. A lot of dine outs are unsatisfying either in the quality of the food, or tiny portions, but this place provides creative and generous portions. As pointed out by the Mrs, no this isn't fine dining, but it is one of the more satisfying Dine out Vancouver meals I've had in recent years (Eclipsed by Annalena, & La Terrazza from years ago) and we will definitely visit again. The hard part will be divvying up visits between Honey Salt & The Victor. read more

Very cute from entrance, to indoor, to the napkin, and down to the presentation of food. Whoever was their interior decorator needs all the praises! It's like you stepped into a perfect Easter Sunday brunch place (I say Easter because of all the pastel colors haha). All the greenery and the cool decorated wall with their name on it. We got their bottomless mimosas which came with 4 little juice carafes. Although the juices weren't strong, it was the experience. The food was tasty but not orgasmic. Service was friendly and prompt. I loved how the check came with a guestbook for people to sign. That's clever! It's worth a visit and you can get some cute pics out of it. read more
This is such a cute and yummy place to grab brunch and lunch! Super cute decor and seating inside. I ordered the eggs benedict for brunch twice during our stay here because it was so good. The orange juice also tastes fresh and yummy! Also ordered the chocolate hazelnut stuffed french toast to go one day because I was craving something sweet, and I'm still drooling when I think about the banana caramel dip it came with. I would pay for a jar of that if I could. Would definitely recommend! read more
Came here for hubby's birthday brunch and we enjoyed ourselves. Some confusion upon arrival, we were left waiting to be seated for a long time but once seated, the service and food were lovely. I loved my deconstructed salmon/bagel type board. Mimosas were tasty and there were a few options. Ambiance is nice, the hotel and casino are right next door, but it's peaceful taking that into consideration. read more

We came here for brunch, and while the ambiance and service were excellent, the food was average. I ordered steak and eggs. My steak was burnt in some places so it was tough and tasted a bit bitter. The potatoes were bland, just very deep fried. My partner found his fried chicken benny to be dry and small in portion size. He was still hungry after brunch so we got him dessert. Very cool decor. If the food was better I'd come back. read more

Stopped in here for lunch to kill time between landing and checking in for my hotel. Had great reviews online with a large menu. It's a super cute location, convenient for anyone staying at the hotel and it's downtown. The ambiance was one thing that really drew me in. I was expecting a larger menu, more options, but all good. The savoury monkey bread is where it's at and was a nice twist! The salad was ok, the chicken a little to charred for my liking but fresh and I enjoyed all the colors. Wait staff was friendly and accommodating. Great dining location if you're downtown, but not sure if it is worth a lengthy trek for just this. read more
