Additionally i would've liked if the graham cracker base was more solid as it was way too soft

I'm not sure how transit friendly they are, never really looked for a bus stop around here. Large seating space - and generally pretty clean - they have large windows - so plenty of natural light. Service was pretty quick and waitress was friendly - Got the Hulk burger, as it sounded pretty fun - burger was full of flavor - I never know how people eat such big burgers with their hands, so I ended up cutting it up with a fork and knife haha. Onion rings could of used some work - they tasted very bland, and was like lukewarm at best. I'd come again to explore the menu further as there is quite a wide selection.

The restaurant was dimly lit with Background music playing in the speakers. Very modern classy vibe. Our server asked if we had any specific beverages other than the water we were given that we wanted. We decided to stick with just water as it was late(Monday night). We perused through the menu and both decided to have the taste of tri-cities menu they had going atm. Wifey ordered for appy the crispy chili tofu and I ordered a individual charred corn/avocado dip with tortilla chips. For mains wifey ordered blackened Cajun chicken and I had a deluxe burger. Dessert wifey ordered mini caramelized vanilla cheesecake and i got the mini sticky toffee chocolate pudding. The crispy chili tofu was quite nice, crispy and flavorful. It came with a dipping sauce which i liked but wifey found the tofu was already seasoned enough she opted not to use it. My individual dip was delicious and creamy, well seasoned. Cajun chicken was moist,I found it slightly salter than I like but maybe it's my age? I've been finding lots of things salter than I remember or maybe all you younger ppl like saltiness lol. Wifey also found it a bit salty. My burger was very messy but tasty, crispy bacon within and fresh lettuce. Decent burger. Fries again i found a bit over salted. For dessert the vanilla cheesecake didn't stand out. Pretty standard, tasted fine as vanilla cheesecake goes. The sticky toffee pudding was good. Soft and moist, served a la mode. Both desserts were served with a thin brittle which was very good. My only complaint was the spoon at the establishment seems kinda overly thick or something as it's very hard to scoop up the dessert into it. Made eating the dessert hard and finicky. Over all nice late dinner, decent food and great servers. Very solid in terms of food and service/atmosphere.

This place hates to deliver is all I can think. Prior to covid, they refused to get on delivery apps, yet the one in White Rock did. The food is good, don't get me wrong. And you can phone in an order and go pick it up yourself... but this location and delivery is nothing but a headache. So you install the Ihop Canada app... order, then try to check out. Everything apple pay is instantly declined. So you enter your card natively. Delivery time now says no. I didn't pick a delivery time, the app did! Push out delivery an hour, FINALLY it takes the order. It shouldn't take 30 minutes to find out you lied about the standard delivery apps and then didn't tell me about your own app! The food is here, and I was sent the wrong omelette. I ordered Spicy Poblano, I got some beef omelette with avocado. :( My coffee is an 8 ounce instead of the 16 ounce I ordered. :( I'm so dissatisfied with this right now.

B and I made a reservation because we knew this place is going to be busy on a weekend. Parking lot is very small so I recommend coming in for an early dinner instead. The restaurant is located a block or two away from Coquitlam mall. We walked in and was seated immediately but that was probably because we had a reservation. The greeting was super warm at this restaurant. Our server for the night provided a great experience. We ordered the the Moroccan Meatballs to share. I got the Seafood Risotto and B got the Chicken Clubs with Cajun Fries. For drinks I had an non alcoholic drink the Pink Fizz and B got the Negroni. The Moroccan Meatballs had a lot going on with the flavors. It came with bread to go with the meatballs. My Seafood Risotto looked small but it was quite filling. It had half a lobster with it, lots of shrimps and other seafood. The risotto was very flavorful. B chicken club sounds ordinary but again it was also very flavorful and unique. It is basically a chicken cob salad in a bun. The fries that came with it was delicious. I really like the garlic aioli dip that came with it. All food items that we ordered were only available at this test kitchen. The drinks were good. The meal with tips and taxes came to $120 for two people. Pretty standard pricing. Overall, good experience, good service and good atmosphere.

They have a patio outside, a mezzanine and quite a few tvs for you to watch games. We got the pineapple wok squid, brussel sprouts and the big "o" chicken sandwich/burger. They asked if we want regular or spicy version for the chicken, We asked for the spicy one. The pineapple wok squid was unique as it had a slight curry flavor and the pineapple gives it a tangy flavor which is an interesting combination that works. I didn't taste the garlic in the dipping sauce, maybe because of the curry taste. It was good. The chicken burger was good as it has cole slaw, pickles, and range sauce. When we told the waitress that we were sharing, she asked if we wanted the burger pre-cut in half. Not a lot of places would have asked that, so that was really good of her to ask. The brussel sprouts were good too as it was crispy but not burnt. If we are in the area again, we will definitely come back, maybe for their happy hour

If this were a stock it would be undervalued, so I'm giving 5 stars to boost the average score…read more Our group of four came hungry and we were eating within minutes of sitting. We had a reservation, so I'd recommend making one. The restaurant has a good layout where you don't feel like you're sitting so close to hear your neighbors' conversations. We counted 13 different types of meat coming across our table, but there may have been more. My favorites: tri tip, NY strip, pork belly, pork roast, bacon-wrapped chicken, and chicken hearts. The salad and side bar was adequate. We finished with a cheesecake worthy of NY. I was hoping they'd have queijo coalho, but they did have good pão de queijo. Would definitely come back.

It had chicken souvlaki, smokey BBQ ribs, pull pork, salt and pepper wings, coleslaw, fries etc. he loved it and so did everyone at the table!

Stopped by for lunch midweek to met up with a friend who resides close to this location. Opted for the beef brisket with thick noddle stir fry lunch special.

I quite liked the soup...almost more than the brisket. At $21.95, it was a good value lunch. It was a positive food experience but with so many similar restaurants in and around the Lower Mainland, I have no plans to return.

We ordered a pistachio latte, apple crisp macchiato and Turkish coffee. We asked for the first two drinks to go and Turkish coffee in house. Unfortunately, our barista made all the drinks to go. We did not get to enjoy the Turkish coffee in a nicer presentation. Also, we kind of expected a sugary treat to accompany the Turkish coffee and there was nothing. Maybe because I am used to other cafes just automatically offering a Turkish delight or something? There was a cup of water to wash down the bitter coffee. Overall, I think their food is probably a better option than their drinks. My pistachio latte was alright. I could taste a hint of the pistachio. Service was alright. We received our drinks fairly quickly.

I was intrigued why they did not have an Iranian theme with some ethnic uniqueness to it. Perhaps this is more palatable to the general public. They serve cafe style offerings with some breakfast items, sandwiches and pastries. The owner relayed to me all coffees and teas they serve are organic!! She would also like to expand their menu to include a liquor license. So we shall see what happens then. Coffee is good. Pastries were okay. Pricing is slightly above average. Okay environment to work in if you don't mind the Mediterranean guitar music playing full-blast. Overall, their chairs are more comfortable than usual coffee joints in the hood. May return in future if work with RELAXING music is in the stars.
