The Mahi Mahi was incredibly tough and I couldn't chew through some pieces. The beef tartare didn't taste like much like beef. The drinks are ok.

New pub along the tip of Howe Sound…read more Parking is plentiful thanks to the city owned lot nearby. The place is new and modern. There is a nice SE facing patio as well. Not sure why, but the entire venue smelled strongly like vinegar, which was quite irritating. The ventilation inside is quite lacking. Worth mentioning as it may be too much for some. Staff are friendly. Friends and I decided to try the whiskey sours (Sealy Dan) as per Elizabeth Z's recommendation. They are absolutely fantastic. So good that we all had to have a 2nd round. I think it's the amaretto that makes everything go together so well. Will be back to try their food at some point. Recommended.

The staff were rude and we were forced to order an extra hookah that we didn't want (as one person wasn't gonna smoke) just because they had a rule that it was 1 hookah for every 2 people. Plus it wasn't exactly low cost either and the extra hookah we got wasn't that great.

There's free parking outside, just register your license plate when you enter the building. I went with 2 other friends on a Saturday night. The place was pretty full but we got lucky and only had wait a few minutes for a table. It was decently loud inside but it was still easy to have a conversation. The waitress we got was super friendly and knowledgeable about the menu items. I'm also super envious of her memory because there's no way I can remember who had which drink without writing it down for so many tables throughout the night!!! My friend also asked for a drink recommendation for the last round and she gave a great one. There's a lot of selection for drinks, as well as food. I really like their shared plates of finger food like tater tots and onion rings. My fish and chips were also very good. The table beside us ordered nachos and it looked huge and very delicious.

Aside from the time warp location, the food is easily 4*s, and honestly, I'd say it's better than White Spot as a comparable. The clubhouse sandwich contained actual turkey breast, not the deli turkey breast slices a lot of places use. That's an easy win right there. Very reasonable pricing to boot! It's basically a sports bar/pub grub menu set up. Pool tables as well. Lighting is on the darker side, with friendly and courteous service. They chat with you since they're curious as to how you know about the place. It's definitely not on too many peoples' radar for sure. They seem to like their hockey, as there are a couple of jerseys hanging. Guy Lafleur, Paul Henderson's autographed jersey from the Summit Series 1972, and a couple of others. Located in the basement of the Lougheed Village Mall, which is literally the Land that Time Forgot. I'm not exaggerating. Come and have a look for yourself. Free validated parking if you eat here. Recommend that you go for a stroll in the upper and lower levels and the courtyard whilst you're here. Maybe come in the evening during Halloween. You won't need to spook yourself out at a graveyard. This mall will suffice you plenty.

Also, it's a good idea to come after a hearty meal to fully appreciate the alcohol. As you step into this bar from the bustling streets of Vancouver, you're instantly transported to a humid, tropical paradise. The theme is all around you, and you're suddenly in Hawaii, ready to order a mai tai. We began with the mystery bowl, and each bowl comes with its own unique song and flair, making it a fun experience. Whether it's the fire, the smoke show, or the lights flashing in the background as everyone turns to see what you've ordered, it's all part of the show. Besides the bowls, be sure to order your own drinks, as they have something for everyone. Their menu is easy to read, so you can already picture the drink you're about to enjoy. Overall, this is a wonderful place to celebrate a special occasion with their whimsical drinks.

Burnaby Mountain Clubhouse, Riverway Restaurant and Mintara currently has a new 3 course Summer…read moremenu available Wednesday to Sunday evenings for $45/person. Included is a Summer Corn salad, choice of entree, and daily dessert. I made a reservation for my Mom and I for Wednesday evening at 7pm and the restaurant was quite empty though golf course was buzzing. Pro tip: There is free parking in front of the restaurant but it's also for the golf course and is pretty busy even on a Wednesday after 7pm so plan accordingly as street parking is a bit far away. We ordered the mussels as an additional appetizer in white wine broth and also each ordered the $45 menu. We both selected the Oven Roasted Beef Striploin and for dessert there was a choice of cheesecake with caramel sauce, cinnamon cheesecake, and black forest cake. My Mom chose the black forest cake and I ordered the cinnamon cheesecake. The mussels appetizer dish was quite generous in quantity for $23 and mussels were a good size. Served with 2 slices of toast, the white wine sauce was more watery than other places but still decent. For the $45 course, the Summer Corn salad comes with artisan greens, feta, carrot, radish, tomato, red onion, orange vinaigrette. This was a refreshing light start to the meal and we both really enjoyed it. For the slow roasted beef striploin, it was served with asparagus and bell peppers, mash potatoes, Yorkshire pudding, and a red wine demi. The beef striploin was lean but not tough and was super trendy and juicy. Yorkshire pudding, which I'm usually not a fan of, was really warm and soft. Overall, a really solid dish that was generous in portion. Dessert was also solid for both the cinnamon cheesecake and black forest cake. We barely finished the dessert and both of us had leftovers of our entree to take home as we couldn't finish our food. Great value for a 3 course $45 meal for today's economy and the service was really friendly and warm.

For drinks, we tried the kombucha, the yerba mate kombucha fusion, and the nitro horchata mocktail. The horchata was really good; refreshing, creamy, and light, at all the same time! I would highly recommend. I also tried the garrapinadas, which were excellently seasoned and caramelized. The lime gave the caramel a really nice kick! We were able to catch the Alec Shaw performance that night, and the performance was absolutely amazing. The energy in the room, the acoustics, and obviously the performers themselves, provided an amazing experience for everyone. I would highly recommend visiting Mateada if you are looking for some authentic South American food, tasty drinks, and great music!
