REVIEWS OF Brix and Mortar IN Vancouver

Nicole Paolino

Food was great and our waitress was super attentive

Wayne T

My husband and I celebrated our anniversary here. There was an event happening at the large dining hall, even so I don't think our experience was less special. They put us in a romantic semi-private nook and offered sparkling wine upon arrival. The food was absolutely amazing! But most of all the staff was so kind a helpful, we loved our service as well. A special thanks to Michael! It's the kind of service that really now all of the menu and try to understand the guest's taste to get the best suggestions for them. The atmosphere was just lovely. Will definitely come back!

Kelly Bren

I had my wedding at Brix & Mortar and could not have been happier with the venue and service I received! Our coordinator, Kimberly, took care of almost anything - so much so that we basically showed up and got the show on the road the day of after a brief meeting a couple days before, and correspondence from Australia! The venue is absolutely stunning, rustic and private and leafy in the heart of downtown Vancouver, and the courtyard was the perfect ceremony location. The staff were fantastic - everything went off like clockwork, with not a single hitch. The bartender was stellar and remembered everyone's orders all night long - and of course, the food! My guests absolutely raved about how good it was, with many saying it was the best they'd ever had at a wedding. Incredible venue, service, and food. hank you Brix & Mortar for giving me a perfect wedding!

Cody Harman

Great Appies. Only downside was the steak order medium rare came out medium.

Cas De Iongh

Food is very, well, unique. And in a good way. The combination of different ingredients, while at first might look unconventional, actually are carefully engineered. The tuna salad is really good and I’m not a seafood person. Wagu steak is out of this worldly good. Service and ambiance only accentuate the experience. They do have a courtyard which unfortunately was full. Hopefully next time!

Priya Jayakumar

Great food! Though, we were by the window near the bar and there was a cold draft. Nice atmosphere otherwise

Nicole Banis

Two friends and I went for our annual after Christmas/before New Year's dinner. Wonderful service from Jonathan, particularly when he suggested and then decanted the wine so it could breathe properly. Also helped me get to a cab (I walk …

Vanessa C

Manager needs to learn more customer service and cut his attitude, Feel sorry for staff as they are working so hard!

Nili Heidary

We had the taste of Yaletown dinner 3 courses for $45.00 an the food was excellent. The cauliflower salad was one of the best salads I've ever had! My second course was the lamb which was cooked to perfection and the dessert was just the perfect touch of of cream an citrus. Highly reccomend! Not only was the food amazing but the staff from reception who held our reso because traffic made us a little late to the server who was super attentive and sweet to the bartender who personally came over with a birthday toast for myself hand mixed cocktails for my girlfriends an dessert wine at the end! He even hand shook the whip cream on my specialty coffee! True 5 star service will definitely be back an tell anyone who asks how amazing it all was. Big thank you to your staff for making me feel so special an loved on my birthday ????❤

Nikki Moe

Went for dineout, food was great, service was very good. I recommend checking it out

Simon Bullock

Excellent food amazing portions and great quality. Service was excellent and cocktails are a must try

Diven Yeung

Generally, it is a great place to go specially the service. I went to this place for Dine Out, the food is good, but the salad was too sour for me.

Nick Whiteley

Great place. We had some really Good wine & the roasted cauliflower dish is amazing!

Polly Chan

Service is average, food is good but overpriced. Around 8pm they crank the music so you can’t hear the person across the table from you. Drunks scream the songs along from the bar around 9pm. It isn’t fine dining if that is what you were expecting. Maybe I was mislead

Marcus

Un....freaking...believable......soooo good!!! So, my husband and I ordered out from their "taste of yaletown" menu tonight. We have not been there in years, and used a gift certificate. The food was incredible, very hot still after picking it up ourselves and a 20 minute drive home. We ordered the pork belly, the squash soup, the lamb shank ( huge !) and had the lemon panna cottage for dessert. Hands down, the best meal we've had during COVID!!! We will definitely be ordering from there again, was wayyyyyyy better than any other takeout food I've had. You will not regret ordering from here, excellent value! We are looking forward to exploring the rest of the menu, it all looks wonderful.

We came here for a birthday dinner celebration and reserved a spot at least one month ahead. A few things that we did not know before coming was that the restaurant had a policy that guest could stay I believe up to 2 hours 15 mins. Our reservation was at 4pm, and we were only told about the policy the moment we were led to our table and also dinner would not start until 5pm which means we only had 1 hour if wanted to have dinner. I was a little bummed out because of it. How the message was conveyed to us made us feel that this was AYCE versus fine dining. In addition, we thought we reserved courtyard and it turned out to be a regular outdoor patio spot. Online reservation had patio and indoor two options only (we selected patio). My partner called in after booking online and was told patio was first come first serve so we were kind of confused and we thought oh well, it probably meant it was courtyard then....we were wrong...we should have asked specifically for courtyard...as we were told the courtyard was fully booked the today we went to the restaurant...I recommend anyone who is interested in booking courtyard to call in to make sure the correct spot is booked. The services were good, and I thank the manager for listening to us about the issues we had regarding our reservation and surprising 2 hours dining policy, and accommodating us to dine at the courtyard for dinner. We were switched to the courtyard around 5pm and finished by 6:30pm. By the time we were done, the courtyard was not even half full which tells me there might be some logistics problems that the management wanted to look into. I did not want to leave a negative rating as I know how important Google reviews are for many hospitality businesses and it is not easy to run a restaurant during the pandemic. I truly hope Brix and Mortar could improve in those areas to make it a positive experience for all guests.

Andrei Karpov

Had a great meal. Nice live music.1 Food and staff were great

Eric Liao

Came here for dinner the day before Valentines day and we both got the roasted duck. It's been 2 weeks since I had it and I still can't stop raving and craving it. Tried to get roasted duck in my neighborhood and was disappointed that it didn't taste like Brix. Can't wait to come back!!!

Emmanuel Bustamante

Best food in Vancouver. Great service!

Megan

Overall Food: 3.5 Service: 3 Ambiance: 3 Value: 3 Recommend or Repeat: N Just too many good options in yaletown. Nothing wrong with Brix and Mortar. But nothing special either.

ben cole

I went with my friends for dine out dinner. The food is great and the environment is super romantic. Next time I will take my partner.

Gloria Catherine Sinainos

Great ambience, delicious food, and helpful servers.

C G

It was a corporate event that I attended so not your usual two to four dining experience. The servers were very attentive, the ambiance of the restaurant was great and the food very good. I had the tenderloin. It was cooked perfectly and the accompanying vegetables as well. Definitely recommend.

Sarah Wunderlich

We booked a reservation at Brix and Mortar for my birthday. We went during happy hour and ordered 3 starter items including the Jalapeno Arancini, Pickled Pineapple and Pork Belly, and the Tuna and Sesame Prawn Tartar. Each of the plates were $10. The arancini was delicious and the sauce paired really well. The tartar was also very tasty with the taro chips. For drinks, we ordered a beer, moscow mule, and a red wine flight. For our mains, we ordered the lamb shank with cheesy polenta and the duck breast with beef brisket potato hash. Both were SO good and were really generously portioned. We couldn't decide which one we liked better. They are both dishes that I will definitely be coming back for and would be eager to try their other mains. Would highly recommend this restaurant.

N H

Overall a nice restaurant without many dinner options though. The lamp main dish was really well done and the vegetables cooked in the right temperature and time but was missing something interesting to get it to 5stars. The highlight of the dinner was the beef tartar which was done differently from any other restaurant and perfect in salt and sourness along with the panna cotta dessert which i couldn’t recommend more!

B C

Came over from Vancouver Island for a weekend getaway and we made reservations at a few restaurants before coming. This was by far our favorite of the weekend! I had the lamb shank and my gf had the ribs. The lamb was absolutely fantastic, but we couldn't get enough of the ribs. The flavor was over the top and sides that came with it went perfectly with the richness of the ribs. Service was great, and I always love it when the owner or could have been a manager came out to ask how everything was. I think that's a great touch. Can't wait to come back next time we are over there.

Derrick MacPherson

That little Italy patio is next level - and the food is amazing! Can’t wait to come back!

Saba Khoziry

Horrible service… waitress no wear to be found. Took 40mins to get our bill. Then she gave us the wrong bills and asked us to fix things for her..

Danny Ioannou

Excellent! Cozy setting in the 'courtyard', great service, and beautiful food. Loved it!

Some of the best seafood I’ve had my whole life! Drinks were also delicious, and our server Aimee was so lovely and helpful with suggestions!

Moira Casey

Service

Jared Krish

I've seen some really random negative reviews, but I was undeterred... Glad I went!!! Got there for happy hour, one of the cheapest around, which convinced our party to stay for dinner! What a great choice! I had the Salmon, and it was perfect. Hal, my server was great, and having Pat (the owner I think) come over was a great touch! Don't miss this gem in Yaletown!!!

Greg Toll

Excellent service, friendly staff, perfect setting and of course delicious food.

Jane H.

Great place to host events and the food is amazing.

Elizabeth Clayton Wester

Delicious and excellent service. Great ambiance and decor. Love the outdoor garden area but it was a little loud out there.

Micah Jakobs

We were at Brix and Mortar just a few days ago, and the service staff was great however I ended up getting food poisoning( I was extremely sick) from the restaurant. It was the only meal I had that day and when I notified the restaurant out of courtesy the manager David just gave me a cop out answer and took no ownership. We will never dine hear again and it was disappointing to see how they deal with a valid customer concern

Fadi Semaan

Great food, beautiful patio, and an exceptional service. Our server, Mattias was welcoming, patient, and gave great suggestions!

Soroush Bagheri

Absolutely love this place! I called to make a reso and was warmly greeted by Emily who was incredibly helpful in snagging a sunny patio spot. The food and drinks were ON POINT, too. We'll be back!

lu wang

My fiance really enjoyed her Duck Breast and the service was good, which is why I gave it 4 star. But I really did not like the lamb shank at all...

Raysing Guo

Very friendly service. Food is good but expensive for what you get.

Andrea Lyman

We had dinner on their beautiful patio and really enjoyed the service, quality of food and ambiance! Highly recommend this place and we felt very safe as they space out the tables and all protocols are followed.

Corey Petersen

The food was extremely average and over priced. We got lingcod with poached lobster, and AAA tenderloin with grilled prawns. The actual steak was very good, however the sides were very average, it came with mashed portatoes and broccolinis that were very bland. The fish that was served was extremely overcooked. It was dry and the texture felt very stiff and chewy. Same with the lobster. The service wasn't very good either, food ran late, the waiter didnt check up on us often. Overall experience was fairly poor. We went here for valentines day and we did not enjoy it very much.

J G

Super friendly, excellent food, large choice of drinks

Javier “Jim” Diaz

Absolutely amazing food only surpassed by the service, servers are friendly and always willing to give you their opinions on food and wine pairings. The manager even came out to sure that we were having a great time. The entire staff is willing to go above and beyond!

Cass Lao Real Estate 勞麗嫦專業地產

Leanne Robertson-Weeds

The only thing I enjoyed here food wise was the scallops and risotto. Everything else here was not good. Classic example to not trust google reviews lol...

Mark P

Food is good, but the seated us downstairs by the bar. Not as nice as the upstairs area.

J W

Absolutely fantastic. Great food, great ambiance, nice servers and an incredibly unique courtyard to top it all off. Do not miss this restaurant!

Geo Vslrs

I found this place online when looking for happy hour options and it didn't disappoint! This place is in a fab location in Yaletown, it has amazing cocktails on happy hour (starting from 7$!) and some super tasty happy hour appetisers. I look forward to going back, even if it's not happy hour!

Rob Mitzel

Service from waiter Ben was amazing and food was great. However, management was very unaccomidating and rude. Spoke to me very rudely and workers clearly miss spoke to us regarding our reservations. Not a great experience unfortunately, we were very excited to go.

Karen Cheung

I been here multiple occasions, food wasn't the issue tonight. As I'm downloading my vaccination card one of davids team this lady was so upset that was taking so long and was super rude that came up to my table and raising her voice. Thank you Brix was a great night :(

April Jordan

Absolutely amazing food only surpassed by the service, servers are friendly and always willing to give you their opinions on food and wine pairings. The manager even came out to sure that we were having a great time. The entire staff is willing to go above and beyond!

Jennifer Richardson

The food here is absolutely tasty!!!! Love the scallops and seafood. Such a beautiful courtyard and great ambiance. Price is a tad higher but you get what you pay for.

Joel Gladd

Paul Friesen

Excellent! Cozy setting in the 'courtyard', great service, and beautiful food. Loved it!

Ron Eggler

Excellent food and environment, but they keep you serving everything quickly so you move out fast for the next one in line. Didn't had the chance to enjoy the whole experience, everything happens so fast

Erynn Paton

For the price of food, most amazing meal I have had in my life. Their medium rare steak was textbook! Props to the chef and server.

Alexandra Currie

Held a company event here. Although we did find the floor layout kind of weird (it is like a L shape) I did end up liking it a lot. For people who wants a break from the music they can go all the way to the back and sit down. And u know give your feet a break. Total costs wise I'm not sure since I wasn't the coordinator for this. But the servers were very professional and attentive. The food was pretty good and fit great with our 1920s theme ????

Sharon Cheng

Very friendly staff, delicious food and a great selection of wines, beers, spirits and cocktails. Great spot for a romantic dinner.

Connie McGinley

Great food and great service. Great people come here!

Ashley

Good food was delicious. Definitely recommend . Would come again.

Wilson Lin

Brix and Mortar is such a great venue and I would recommend it to host any events (including a wedding). Jennifer and her team did everything they could to make sure we were happy and taken care of. Jennifer and Jamie worked extremely hard to make sure our plans were executed to perfection and the venue looked beautiful.

Mariam Khan

Was here for a wedding, definitely will be coming back for cocktails or dinner! The food was great, and the garden area is beautiful. The drinks were super good too. Definitely worth checking out!

Fiorella Calderoni

Everything was quite nice but the food was a bit dry and wasn't matching the price tag.

John Fan

The food here was good, and the patio seating was nice.

Alexandre Guertin

It was nice place, good food, pleasant staff. What more do you need?

Luis Castro

Food was amazing, service was good. Music was far to loud! I could barely hear my partner talk and so we spent much of our dinner in silence. We were looking for a nice intimate dinner spot, not a noisy bar atmosphere.

Thomas Evdokimoff

Great food and lovely Service! Since there was a Wedding in the Main room I can talk only about the Bar section.

Maria Adato

Nice scenery, and good staff but food is pretty underwhelming and expensive.

Anson Li

Food was salty and my steak was over seasoned. We booked the place a week before and yet we were seated in patio. While half of the upper floor was empty we were told that all tables are booked. Upon our arrival a tray was on one of our seats which wehad no choice but to put it somewhere to be able to sit. For appetizer we got prawn which was disturbingly spicy. Steak was cold and when floor manager asked about the food we mentioned that the meat tempertare is not hot enough. Unfortunately the weakest point of the night was my experience in men's room. The washroom is outside the restaurant in the end of a corridor. The space has nothing to do with the $$$ resturant experience. You almost feel like you are entering into a gas station washroom. Scratches are all over the walls, which was extremely shocking. I truly worked hard to give two star to this place. And we are very disappointed by our choice.

Kayla Cagan

There was nothing exceptional about this restaurant except the prices for the food. The food wasn't bad, it was just alright, but priced as if it were amazing. I had the scallops which were just okay, the beat salad was very tasty. I wish it had been a meal sized salad you could add a protein to. The chicken and waffles was.. entirely unnecessary. $29 for a waffle and some fried chicken. Just no. Also, the bathrooms were something I would expect at a TGI Fridays. Not a higher end restaurant. Other than that the service was good. Oh and the focaccia bread was awesome, but for the price point of the food should be complimentary.

Tal Gill

Our amazing evening at Brix & Mortar shouldn't end with 5 stars. The staff and food were wonderful. They have the best happy hour with delicious drinks and snacks available. It was a special night for us celebrating the life of a friend we lost. They supported us in every way. The owner, Patrick, made an extraordinary effort to welcome us. Absolutely fantastic.

Michelle Graham

Super fun place, great bar team. Great selection on liquor inventory.

Pankaj Babla

Great food and service! Fresh and quality ingredients used in their dishes and chefs know how to prepare them - great place.

danielle Lorde

After eating here this evening, my husband and I decided we probably wouldn’t return. It was pretty disappointing that a meal of that expense came with mediocre service, mediocre food and bad decor (there was a wedding in the pretty part so …

Michael Hermann

Always have good service, food has always been delicious. For an intimate dinner for 2 the courtyard is nice, for more than 2 the restaurant side is ideal.

Vlad Olteanu

I'm sure it was just an off night but unfortunately our experience was not the greatest. For starters we had the beet salad and the carpaccio. The beet salad was bland - begging for some acidity and could have used more beets. The carpaccio was good but again was under seasoned and came with an odd overly large mountain of kale. Our mains is actually where our issues truly began. The halibut was not seasoned at all. It actually tasted like it could have been microwaved. The prawn crust was rubbery. The second dish was the tagliatelle which I was very much looking forward too. It came cold and the acid I was missing in the beet salad was found here. Maybe they didn't let the wine in the bolognese sauce cook off? The saving grace was the service. The hostess was pleasant. Our waitress was attentive and helpful. We weren't even going to say anything about the food but she notice and informed the manager on our behalf. The manager was generous enough to remove the mains and our drinks from our meal. We were very grateful and made sure to tip the waitress on the full dinner as she didn't deserve to be penalized for the problems in the kitchen. I hope they sort out the inconsistencies in the kitchen. If they do this will be a great place to dine.

Irish Kristine Thomas

Beautiful, romantic vibe which is perfect for a date night or special occasion with friends. The lamb falls right off the bone and the striploin was amazing. Also, you gotta try the chocolate panna cotta!

Ciara Morgan-Feir

Favorite hangout spot. Regulars now.You feel you are with family. They go out of their way to accommodate you. Old Fashioned lovers, please try an Old Fashioned by awesome bartender Hal. It is the BEST. He's an artist

Rob R

An alright happy hour selection. food was tasty and decor was nice

Benjamin Feagin Jr

Had a girls night out with a friend and my sister, service was good, the waiter made Good recommendations, food great as well. Definitely will be back. I was too hungry to take pictures lol

We celebrated our wedding ceremony and reception here and the experience was fantastic. The stuff is helpful and efficient, the service is good, and the food was perfect. They helped us organizing and coordinating all the things, so we did not have to worry about anything on our big day.

I rarely write reviews but I really enjoyed this place! The food and the service are both on point and the ambience is lovely. The owner Patrick and his staff really put effort into ensuring a positive experience which is much appreciated. Check it out!

Jonathan Pumphrey

Okay scenery. Service was good. But the restaurant's weakness is their chef. Execution was off. The waiters told us the salmon would come out medium rare. Fine. When the fish came, well done. Hmm... Lacklustre for the setting and perceived quality. Shame.

Dave Graff

The food was excellent. The service was great and they had really lovely live music.

Elaine Wescott

Even if the service was at times slow... the food makes you scream: YES! I want MORE!!!

Went there for dinner for a friend's bachelorette last night. We were treated wonderfully by the staff, the food was SO incredible and perfectly done, and the restaurant manager even came out to say congrats to my friend! Would certainly go back.

Bump Lee

The hotel I'm staying at directed my group to Brix and Mortar and it was a wonderful recommendation. My entire group loved the scallops and my gnudi was delicious. The service was also fabulous. I'm from Toronto or else this would be a new go-to for me! Cheers.

Ambiance 100% Food 100% Service 100% I always leave happy and full when I visit here!

Ella Cannon

Amazing staff and really nice atmosphere. Appies and drinks were delicious. Small portions and high pricing, but worth it if you're aware of this factor prior to arrival. I didnt particularly like my main course- I got the lingcod- but everything else was delicious.

Markus Akert

Amazing ambience with great fine dining

Jinah

This place really surprised me! I love that they use the 100 mile diet. All ingredients come from local farms within 100 miles! They have such a beautiful liquor wall with a fantastic cocktail list. Don’t drink? They do custom mocktails based on your desired palette. Their menu changes based on the season for the most freshest in season ingredients.

Wilson Lau

Really amazing happy hour! Loved the patio seats outside. The server forgot a couple of our drinks/request to not want any plastic straws. It’s no worry this time, although we can always be more conscientious about the earth. Still had a great time!

Carolina Lemay

Just shared an outstanding take-out meal! Steak dinner for two. Compliments to the chef!

James Harris

Nice service and good vibe But the food potion is really small....

Madelyn White

RUDE service. We asked one of the waitress to take a picture for us. Another waitress saw this and ROLLED her eyes at us. And she was mumbling some words as she walked passed our table. Our waitress was snobby at first until we ordered something off the 'dine out menu.' The atmosphere is good. The food isn't good. The experience wasn't good at all.

Tom Hazeldine

A great Vancouver Institution. What began as Brix has expanded to Brix & Mortar. Enjoy happy hour on their fantastic patio.

Amrit Hundal

We held both our wedding ceremony and reception in the courtyard; and planned it all in 2 weeks thanks to Jennifer and Jaimie's organization, attention to detail, and professionalism. We brought minimal decor since it's already so beautiful and were able to use a lot of the items (candles, easel, bird cage, etc.) included with the venue. The staff, food, service and ambiance were also absolute PERFECTION. It was the wedding of our dreams and we couldn’t be happier that we chose Brix & Mortar!

Philip Giammarino

Staff was great, food was great. Best rib sauce I have ever had.

Mojgan

Friendly servers who actually recommend tasty drinks. Beautiful outside sitting.

Alicia Diederichs

My wife and I went there for her birthday dinner and we were blown away. The food is great and the staff friendly and attentive. We wish to recommend the pork belly starter and the tagliatelle. We will be back soon

Angelique Meise

We've been coming here the last few years for NYE dinner and birthday celebrations. We always have a wonderful time with the amazing staff and delicious food. We booked ahead for an early seating as we had people over later for NYE countdown. We ordered: -PROSCIUTTO WRAPPED SEA SCALLOPS This is our go to appetizer. The scallops are perfectly seasoned and seared. The barbecued duck risotto with each bite with scallop is to die for. - LOCAL LINGCOD I love eating fish and living in Vancouver, plenty fresh seafood. This was really tasty! The fish was done perfectly. It had potato crust (loved this) with roasted winter squash, succotash, chive aioli. - GELDERMAN FARMS PORK BELLY Lemongrass chili glaze, prawn & pineapple kimchi fried rice. Wow. This was a the tastiest pork belly paired with kimchi fried rice I ever tasted. The fried rice was more sour than spicy. But the sour really cut into the fat with eat bite. We always feel the staff love their job as their service is always wonderful.

Kawin Kaentrakool

The food and wine was good. Our waitress was great but we were totally harassed by the random servers. My plate was cleared while I still had food in my mouth. I had to ask three random servers not to remove the cheese plate before I was done. Thus flyby service totally ruined our evening. If I wanted fast food I would go to McDonald's.

Sachin Khona (Creative)

Lamb, pasta, and the duck! I was skeptical at first but after trying one bite..... it was heaven. Very delicious and will go again! Having live music was nice and he took all our song requests and made the evening that much better!

Kristoffer Barber

Great place to play. The courtyard works well for smaller weddings. Brix's event managers typically do a bang up job

Rodrigo Diaz de Rivera V

try it on dine out, the food is perfect! very delicious!

Milan Gorasevic

Our server Andres was fantastic! Excellent service and we enjoyed our dinner.

Kendra McConnell

Pros: beautiful courtyard patio, knowledgeable staff, great wine selection, delectable food, easy transit access Cons: on the pricey side

Wendy Cheng

Great service by a friend and knowledgeable bartender professional, Dylan. He knows his cocktails.

Ali Mehrizi

Did a reso for me and my boyfriend to celebrate. Unfortunately, we left the restaurant disappointed. We ordered vodka soda and the bill was charged as a double vodka (4 drinks) - the server mentioned that is how the restaurant works, you get doubles and pay for doubles without asking. We ordered 2 steaks and mid rare was the option that I chose. As you can see in the pic, I did not received that. Update: I did mentioned with the server at the time and she said I could remove her tip from the payment but the bill was right. Very unprofessional!

Shirley

The food was great, the service was excellent and the live entertainment was lovely (Thank you, Antoinette!). An excellent choice for any occasion. Wether you're looking for a venue for a group, as we were, or just a romantic dinner for two. Wonderful atmosphere and your choice of a cozy inside table or an airy patio seat. The prices were what you'd expect from a Yaletown destination, but the food was worth every penny and the portions were just right. Most of us went from famished to full after an appy and an entree. 10/10 would recommend and will be going back!

Andrew Lass

Great service at the bar. Best cocktail I ever had - the Bryson - ask for it if Hall (pronounced the same as shall) is working. Great happy hour menu. The dip trio was on point full of flavor properly seasoned, deliciousness. The beef tartare was a good dish that became excellent once I added salt and pepper, they forgot to season the dish completely. Sadly I had to rush out, but I'll be back for sure. Place looks classy all done up for.christmas. And management give hall an applause, as a lifelong restaurant guy, he exceeded everything.

Maggie Jialing Wei

I constantly come by getting some food in this place. I love the efficient service and well cooked food. Keep up the good work.

Bobby Bhinder

Great food and great service. Came here while attending a wedding, so not sure it's like this all the time. If it is, with coming again. Caveat of this place is that it is in Yaletown and that means no free parking and cramped alleyways if driving. Roundhouse SkyTrain station for Canada Line is a couple blocks away, so convenient to train into this location.

Peter

Food, wine and dessert were all amazing!! Server was super friendly as well.. overall a lovely dinner and would highly recommend!

Favian Yee

Great food, tasty drinks and friendly staff, what more can you need?

Holly Fraser

Food, drink, service and feeling Covid safe made for an outstanding evening.

David Thomas

Went there for 4 year anniversary with my wife. Food and service is fantastic. They even remembered that it was my 4 year anniversary when I got there and surprised us with some wine.

Nicholas Slater

The restaurant is beautiful! Great design for pictures or hosting events. I'm not impressed by the food, I've gone there several times and left disappointed about the quality of the food every time.

Louise Parker

Great food in an intimate setting

Ryan Pak

The italian food served here is simply excellent, since the high score. Didn't impress me in any way by the atmosphere/design, it's modern without anything specific to make it stand out - but the food makes it worth it!

Eduardo delavega

delicious

Nilin Interiors

Best restaurant in downtown, no contest. We hit up quite a few of the highly rated dinner restaurants in 3 different neighborhoods across downtown. Brix & Mortar, hands down, served the best food and drinks. We had two small and two big plates along with curated cider and cocktail choices. We finished it off with sharing their desert of the night & I had an ounce of curated scotch. The server knew everything about the drinks and dishes she served. We'll be back anytime we're in town.

We didn’t have the best experience but the manager went so much above and beyond to fix it that we will give it another shot.

Good food and great service. The items on their seasonal menu are unique.

Went here to celebrate my birthday, was able to get a seat in the hidden patio in the back and it was so lovely. Highly highly recommend and the staff were so lovely all night, the bar is also a lovely spot to grab a G&T with a large selection.

The food was amazing, the live music was phenomenal and the waitress was very friendly

First experience here was not great. The service wasn't too great and the food was not so good either, I had the linguini with the crab, the crab was over cooked and it was not what it said to be, also too spicy. My girlfriend, my friend and his sister all did not like what the ordered as well.

While walking home last night I peaked into the restaurant’s court as I live next door and walk by every day but never had a chance to check it out. I was approached by a very disrespectful staff who rushed me out with little consideration. Two friends that were with me were also taken aback by what felt a rude and unnecessary approach. Too bad because the place looks really nice and I was looking forward to trying it out. Not so much anymore.

Bill Carrigan

Went here for the first time last week. Can't believe I've never been before. This is a beautiful restaurant with elegant decor; the vines really make it stand out. I knew it was going to be something special and the food/service/WINE did not disappoint one bit.

Z.Ä.S

Great place to catch up over a cocktail or have dinner

Sherif Tarek

Love this place. Great west coast food with knowledgable attentive service. Couldn't ask for more!

Leah Poser

Never fails in quality. Been loving this place for many years.

Kathleen Carrigan

Very rude service!!!!!!!We came to the place last night as my first visit. It was my friend's birthday party. I was standing at the door for about 5 min but nobody came to ask even though 3 of the waiters saw me. Then we waited soooooo long to order food but no one even come. So my friend raise her hand up. After a long time, her boyfriend raised his hand up as well. Then, the waitress who stands behind us told us very rudely to stop raising hand and waving. She could done this in another way which could be more polite and comfortable. Very bad service. Shouldnt come again

Emily Driver

Went to the Happy hour with my girls! The service was great and the wine was $5 a glass! We grabbed a few appies and our bill was $22.55! What a steal! The ambiance was great and it's a must try when you are in yaletown Highly recommend!

Dustin Pates

Nice choices for vegetarians. Cauliflower dish was amazeballz.

Ryan Beauchesne

Food was great, service was excellent. The chicken karaage and waffles was really good, though I hear they are removing it from the menu. There is an upstairs and downstairs (bar) section with an entrance from the back, so it can be a bit confusing, but everyone was very accommodating. The main restaurant is partly inside and partly in a covered courtyard. The courtyard feels like being outside but warmed with heaters to keep it comfortable even though it was cold out.

Arthur Kanaria

One of my fav spots. Perfect for a nice dinner date or corporate dinners.

brent breedveld

I love the vibe. We went when there was live music upstairs on Friday and they gave us a beautiful seat. The food was amazing. The server Nicolas was super friendly and helpful. It was expensive but quite worth the price.

Natalie L.

Great food, good location, fair price!

Alfred Jeffrey

We sat on the patio and enjoyed the people watching. Fine menu, with good follow through.

Maggie M

I visited Brix and Mortar for the first time today. The atmosphere was pretty amazing, and the staff were very friendly and made my friends and I feel at home. The food was okay. Overall, I would recommend Brix and Mortar more for its ambience than food. It is definitely a good place for date night.

ken L

The best wedding venue ever!!! Beautiful setting and accommodating staff!

Cathy Wang

One of the best restaurants I've eaten at! Class, great staff and awesome food. Made my trip to Vancouver that much better! ????

Bill Gill

Where can I even begin, there is not enough words with how amazing Brix and Mortar is.. It was a dream to book my wedding with Brix & Mortar and without fail; they proved why they are one of the most sought after Venues. The owners are the most genuine and kind hearted people with a staff who offer the same characteristics. Being a Covid bride had its hiccups but I never felt stressed with Jennifer. Her support and guidance along the way was always with open arms. Every question, inquiry, asks or requests was always looked after with the most care and understanding. The day itself was put at ease with Jennifer by my side, along with the sweet Laura who watched over us and our guests the entire night. It makes me tear up thinking of how magical my night was and knowing I could not have had it so successful without Jennifer and Laura. The food and drink options are endless, delicious! The attention to detail with the little things, made my husband and I stand out just a little bit more. They made sure to be mindful for us with costs without having us thinking of it as a concern. Thank you a million times to Jennifer, Dave and Laura: from the depths of our hearts; we sincerely Thank You and to al the Brixs team to make it happen. Thank you for being present, being ready and available every second, minute and hour with addressing my million inquiries. The plates were devoured and glasses always filled. We will forever be grateful for our magical day. We can’t wait to be back

Gina Bennett

Took my girlfriend here for a birthday dinner on a trip to Vancouver and it was great. We had to change our reservations due to a border crossing delay and they were very accommodating. The inside is very cool, with vines and a beautiful chandelier! We were seated timely and our server was very nice offering wine samples (3) and extra whiskey samples before we chose our drinks. The muscles and beet salad are a must. My girlfriend had the salmon and I the fried chicken. Both were good , but I think the salmon was the better dish. The chicken was southern style with a heavy, spiced Cajun sauce. Definitely check this place out for a great meal with nice service

J J

I can't say enough good things about the dinner we had on Friday night at Brix & Mortar. We're already planning our next visit. We went later in the evening and sat on the patio. We had pate to start, chicken & waffles and pork chops as mains, and every element was perfect. The waitress gave excellent answers to our questions about drinks and food, and advised on meal options (even though she was vegan!) If you want a five star date night at four star prices, incredible food, and exceptional service, this is your place!

Leah Kloeble

An ok experience. Service was great, but salad was not even tossed, meat was overdone and mashed potatoes were greasy. Nice atmosphere.

Mark Olsson

Helped my friend plan a wedding there. Food is ok, the bar is exceptional, but the main attraction is their patio which is great for the ceremony and for pictures. Cozy place

John Felix Tolentino

An amazing experience! They took care of our entire wedding and made it so beautiful! Food, service and personalized assistance and experienced staff went beyond our expectations. Start to finish was perfect. Jennifer was beyond amazing. Thank you for making our day so special!

Michael Alinauskas

I usually never post or rarely post reviews but this I had to share with the foodie / google community. Brix Restaurant & Wine Bar is a must for your SPECIAL OCCASION. My project: Sister's 30th Birthday. Patrick who facilitated and guided my plans from start to finish was amazing. From first call to last touches he's A+. I have never had someone care this much in the food and beverage industry. He knows what to do and how to do it and in sequence. Tanya who covered for Patrick shortly did a very great job as well. She deserves her own kudos. I had a party of 14 which all got seated in a timely fashion. My party included 2 tots which usually are well behaved and they didn't make them or parents feel unwelcome a real plus. The ordering went smoothly with Tanya. All the little things were well taken care of like a well orchestrated symphony. Jackets, Cake, Cutting of the cake you name it, it was done. Food speaks for its self. Kurabota Porkchop in Brine amazing. Pickled Beet Salad same. I can't recommend Brix enough on this review. Will return soon!

What a fabulous gem here!! The food is amazing and it is NOT small portions by any means! The cocktails were delish and fun!!

My husband and I arrived at 3:50 pm and were told to come back as they were still “setting up”. We left and returned at 4:10pm. After the hostess seated us, she informed us of their two-hour stay limit which caught us somewhat off guard, given that the pre-COVID Yaletown, usually bustling with many locals and visitors from far and wide, had turned into what to us felt like a ghost town. We thought that with so many COVID restrictions in the past two years that restaurateurs would have been happy to welcome us, especially so early in their business day, particularly since there were very few customers there at that time. Then we were presented with the menu: one for Happy Hour and another with their dinner features. We were hungry and looking forward to ordering entrees from the dinner menu; however, then we were informed by the waiter that we would need to wait until 5 pm to order off the dinner menu…To us, this just added insult to injury: not only are we explicitly told we’re only welcome to stay for two hours, but now we have to wait almost one hour to order a full meal. And so, this what was supposed to be “Happy Hour” quickly turned into “Unhappy Hour” for us. We purposefully decided not to just get up and leave but stay a bit and share three of their featured $10 appetizers. But we refused the alcoholic beverages, as our mood had already been spoiled by what we considered very poor customer service. We ate, paid and could not wait to leave, all well before 5 o’clock. It does not matter how good the food is, if the customer does not feel appreciated. A disappointing experience overall. ☹️

Roja Andii

This place is TOP NOTCH!! Everything from the welcome to dessert was spot on. Food is delicious. Make it a special night and book a table here. It's a really romantic place to boot if you're looking for an anniversary meal.

Jean Wharf-Garcia

One of my favourite Yaletown restaraunts. Great wine selection and ever dish is fantastic

C Lee

Wow! Not only is the decor beautiful and the service super friendly, but the food is unreal! They really crushed it from all angles and went above and beyond to make sure we had a great experience!

Andrew Leung

It was yet another fantastic dining experience here. I went here with my work team from TO. They asked how I found this place and replied that this is my “go-to anniversary” restaurant. We started off with drinks and their special negroni with sun-dried tomato might sound weird but was absolutely incredible. For appetizers, we ordered their cheese and charcuterie (great but not exceptional). I reserve the exceptional compliments for their prosciutto wrapped sea scallops with duck risotto. I remember having this before and this was the highlight of my previous meal. We ordered this for the 5 of us (2 orders plus + 1 extra scallop) and it was exactly how I remember it. It is a bit pricey but I assure you, it was absolutely worth it. For our main, I had the ling cod which was very good. It was cooked well but I think it needed just a bit more flavour. Somebody ordered the pork belly and that... was.... awesome. I will need to order that next time! For dessert, we ordered the panna cotta... another home run. All in all, another fantastic dining experience with great service. Brix&Mortar, until we meet again.

Boris Wertz

Great place for a small wedding. Staff were great

JESSICA

The patio, the service, and the food were all good. We had to get our server’s attention a few times but overall he was attentive. Our entrees were delicious too. However, there was something missing from the experience that I can’t quite put my finger on it. If you choose this place, You will enjoy your experience and the food. It might just have been an off night for us …

Red Murphy

Beautiful and trendy restaurant. Was here for a private function in October and the food was incredible. Highly recommend.

Justin Lazorko

Great place for a wedding. Got to walk my daughter down the aisle. Downtown Vancouver location in Yaletown. Everything came together everyone was happy.

Dee Lee

One of the best dining experiences in Vancouver. The staff are amazing and the food is always creative and ridiculously tasty.

T W

We were actually impressed by the food. The service was amiable but clumsy (that's probably just our waitress)

Mamta Babla

I love coming here and sitting in the patio! It’s so cute!!

Kimberly Stetsko

We were visiting to celebrate my husband's birthday. They really do pay attention to special occasions and gave us a very nice and private spot. The server was very attentive and nice, we had a fantastic time there. Food was delicious and seasoned well, definitely will come back again. Highly recommended!

Cheyenne

Nice restaurant/bar. Was here for a Christmas work event, food was a bit of an odd menu, but generally very nice. Good drink options and a good location in the heart of Yaletown

Andreas Lerch

Normally love Brix and Mortar but be careful of the Pork Ribs. For whatever reason they decided to serve the end flap meat you normally trim from St. Louis ribs. The meat was filled with fat and cartilage. Basically made it inedible. Didn't make this a 1 because normally this restaurant is fantastic, and maybe this was an abrasion as I had takeout. Also called and they were not going to rectify so beware of the ribs. Only order if you are in the restaurant and can send back to the kitchen if they serve you what I got.

Daizy Ferigotti

Got the $48 Dine Out combo with pork belly salad (that’s lowkey more like bacon), pork chop, and hazelnut panna cotta!! The pork chop was ????????????????????????????????????????. Even though we sat in the patio the heating system was pretty good to keep us comfortable. Not a bad meal at all, just not to my personal likings ????

Torben Ferber

The food was good and the building is very nice, the service was mediocre. I felt like the server's didn't care about use and our experience .... but the food was super good!

John Cho

Had a really good team meal here for 20+. We had a private space and an excellent set menu with a couple of options for starter and main. Food was way better than the average set menu - genuine restaurant quality.

Bruce Gillespie

Great atmosphere! Had a private event and the service was fantastic!

Amber Butterworth

Funky location with excellent service. Price point is $$$. But on the lower end of 3. Food was excellent with a large wine list along with beer and cocktails. There is inside dining along with a very cool courtyard area. The menus is varied and includes GF and vegan dishes if that is your thing. I had a lamb dish and pork belly both were delicious. Would reccomend and go back. Good for date night, bday party, business meeting.

Henry

Great dine out menu! Highly recommend the duck dish and tuna appetizer.

Shayna Berkelmans

Went here for date night. I'm still salivating over the duck I had. Amazing patio with beautiful lighting!

Melody Robens-Paradise

Lovely interior, great food and excellent service. Most friendliest restaurant I have ever been. I would like to thank to Thomas, who was our server last night. We had a lovely time! Food was also great!!! We enjoyed every single item.

Yvonne

Usually I don’t do reviews but this time I have to.This is a first time since I came to Canada I felt like I was at home so this restaurant is the closest one which looks like European restaurants.Just keep to be so kind and grounded like last night and success is guaranteed for you.Thank you for fabulous diner Dragoljub.

Darren Franko

Great food and customer service. Everything was just great.

Sarah White

From the staff, to the food, the atmosphere- there is literally nothing I would change. I’ve enjoyed meals and our wedding here! 20/10 would recommend!

Jennifer L

Service, venue and food were top top notch. I had the halibut after scallops and duck starter. She had a very large lamb shank on the creaminess mash with extremely flavorful gravy ????

Valeriia Padalka

A fantastic meal for a fantastic wedding celebration. The tenderloin steak was as good as it gets, seared and cooked to perfection. Highly recommend this establishment of you are in Yaletown, beautiful courtyard as well.

Fraser's Films

We celebrated our wedding ceremony and reception here and the experience was fantastic. The stuff is helpful and efficient, the service is good, and the food was perfect. They helped us organizing and coordinating all the things, so we did not have to worry about anything on our big day.

Philip Thampy

One of my favourite Yaletown spots. So much that I hosted our company Christmas party here too and they were very accommodating. Classy heritage-vibe upstairs, more modern heated patio downstairs. The food here is fantastic; everything from the tenderloin, duck confit, to the halibut. Interesting cocktails too.

Paul Tiwana

We went to Brix and Mortar last night for my boyfriend’s birthday but unfortunately we got the worst service that we have ever experienced! The atmosphere was very nice, the food was good, but service, from our experience I’m sorry but it was very very disappointing. When I reserved our table online, I mentioned that its my boyfriend’s birthday and I’m bringing a cake and I would like that to be served after our food! and I got a reply back saying they look forward to hosting us for a Birthday dinner. When we got there, and we sat down by a host, we were literally sitting there for 15-20 min without any water or any food or drink menu on our table. All the servers would pass by us and serve other tables but no one came to our table to ask us if we need anything. So I had to ask one of the waiters to bring us some water and menus. After all our guests arrived, we still had no one to take our order, and still no waiters, so I had to go my self and ask for someone to come and Serve us. When we finally got a waitress after 30 min, we ordered a wine sample and it took her literally 15 min to come back to our table, and when she came back, she asked us “ have we decided on anything for drinks” , and I said we ordered a wine sample to try, and she was like Oohhh I’ll be right back!! Then she came with a wine sample and we ordered. We ordered our food, all good and delicious. But when we got to the desert, she came and asked if we want anything for desert, and I had to tell her that I brought a cake and its in the fridge. (basically ruining my own surprise). Even though I mentioned it on my reservation and they totally forgot about it. We were all very surprised by the kind of service that we got last night. Very disappointing. Hopefully they can have more people on board when they are experiencing a busy night. Thanks!

Trae Rey-Coop

Beautiful venue for weddings. Also their risotto is amazing!

Georgina B

The three of us came in on a Thursday evening for dinner. The staff was friendly and engaging. The food was great, especially the peanut butter dessert. The prices are good.

Jenny Ho

Went for dinner in the main restaurant. Went for the first seating and felt very rushed to be done. Sat next to the bathroon and musician, music was great but the restaurant was half empty, not sure why such a horrible table. Service was good but not great. The food was overly salty, but still good. One guest at our table ordered the vegan dish, 9 whole jalapeños!! Seeds and all, inedible. Cocktails were amazing. Wished I would have gone for dinner in the lower part of the restaurant.

Helena Biasibetti Brendler

Romantic restaurant indeed! Several large crystal chandeliers in the dinningrooms and patios! No wonder it's popular for med-size wedding receptions! Generous portions of delicious gourmet Canadiana cuisine for Dine Out Vancouver 2022 dinner menu! Attentive friendly service staff also!

Chris Hynes

Great bar downstairs, with an excellent happy hour with drink and food specials. Service is top notch too. The only negative thing is when visiting the washrooms you go through a door that magically takes you to a 1980s commercial building

Lyle Isbister

Very nice room serving up delicious creations. All appetizers shared were very good, scallops were fresh and very well prepared. Pesto Fettuccine was amazing. We also got the Panna Cotta as well as the sorbet. Both great but the sorbet was next level good. Quick and friendly staff. All of which provided a great dining experience

Josh Sitter-Konishi

Food was delicious and happy hour options were a great deal

Benny Kwok

Poor reception and unhelpful GM. This seems to be a hang out for their own staff at the expense of their customers.

Roberto Ruz

Was there for a wedding. Great service. Great location. Very nice venue.

Ben Klein

My fiance really enjoyed her Duck Breast and the service was good, which is why I gave it 4 star. But I really did not like the lamb shank at all...

R T

Loooove everything about their aesthetic, food, drinks, music... everything. One of the few places in Vancouver (in Yaletown no less!) that offers casual fine dining and has genuine personality.

Marissa Martha

Connelly love the servers and hours more! Didn't get any food but man did I ever feel super welcomed

Gabriella Franco

An excellent evening - great atmosphere, great food and great service. Was a birthday celebration that was, of course, muted due to Covid. However our outdoor space was still ideal and magical. Birthday girl was very happy!

Adam Gibson

Terrible. Food just ok. Had an issue with the bill, unfortunately it took 20 minutes to resolve . The manager, Graham, is completely incompetent. Lots of great places in Yaletown - don't go there Chris / Vancouver

Jude Conroy

On June 21, 2017, we had our wedding ceremony & reception at Brix and Mortar. We cannot say enough about the venue and the Brix team. Jennifer guided us through the process of planning and put together an incredible dining experience for our guests and she did it all within our budget. The food was amazing. The Brix team truly was a 'dream team' who were never more than a few feet away to make sure everyone had what they needed. Sonya was like a wedding coordinator, she directed guests, the wedding party, cued music and kept us all calm and comfortable. The venue is pure magic and everyone who attended is raving about all of the above. Thank you Jennifer and the team who worked the day of our wedding.

Aman Middha

Classy & Upscale venue with very friendly staff and waiters, great ambiance. Love the scallops and the rest of the food - definitely check this place out you won't be disappointed!

Patrick Hui

Stumbled upon this gem during a pleasantly surprising visit around happy hour. Ordered the chicken karage (5 stars) and tempura. The wine selection is great. The ambiance is dark lit and feels like you're in London. That's my take. You should check it out!

Fresh, abundant ingredients. Beautiful flavor. Love sitting up at the bar and watching the cocktails being made. I was super impressed with the portion size for small plates. I’d go back again and again to work my way through the menu.

Nader Kianzad

Brooklyn style classy interior, great service, and quality cuisine

Allen Y

Excellent atmosphere, delicious food. The bartender is great!

Iconic Concierge

About average for high end food. The two main courses duck*** and lamb*** tasted like a mixture of Korean, Chinese, Indian, and Mexican food, pretty weird. The two appetizers cauliflower*** and mushroom*** tastes pretty good. Service were friendly but not so professional, I had to ask them to refill my water.

Shawn Miller

The appetizers and desserts are beyond amazing. Explosion of flavours, I was extremely impressed. However the mains are alright, nothing too crazy about them.

Scott Mitford

Went there for a Xmas company dinner. Excellent setting, outstanding food and drinks, great service! I'll be back for sure!

Robert Budnar

Had a great experience at Brix. Love the ambiance and vibe here. Amazing drinks and service. Hal the bartender makes excellent cocktails and wine recommendations. Nice courtyard space for celebrating and singer upstairs some nights

Denis Emond

We've been here three times for happy hour now, and the attentive staff already know us! The happy hour beers are an absolute STEAL, and the happy hour food menu has something for everyone. Great vibe here - upscale casual but you wouldn't feel out of place dressed formally either. One of the best wine lists in town, too, if that's your thing.

Tabrez Hussein

Their service is amazing. Even when the restaurant is packed, servers are very attentive and impressive. One of the best focaccia and mashed potato I've ever had and A+ beef tenderloin. Halibut was overcooked but it happens. I would definitely go back.

Emily Back

Very attentive service. We ate inside but their patio is beautiful. The steak was cooked to perfection (rare) and the duck was juicy. I really enjoyed the Asian fusion elements in the duck dish (Kim chi, gochujang, etc.). Recommend getting the scallop as a starter, the fried risotto is so good.

Cecile Lam

A favourite (not just) for Happy Hour. Conveniently located in Yaletown and with a big patio.

Marin Relatic

The service was great. Craig was an excellent server. I asked for a small sub on one of the dishes (Can't eat truffle) and was told that the chef does not allow substitutions. When a chef doesn't allow substitutions I make the assumption that they stand behind the flavours and quality of their dishes. I got the ribs. The food came out (literally) 4-minutes later - it was clearly re-heated quickly and put on a plate. The presentation was beautiful and I'd put money on the presentation taking longer than the food did to be reheated. Took my first bite - enjoyed it. Took my second bite, thought I recognized the flavour. Took my third bite - realized that the ribs were coated in the sweet and sour pork sauce that I sometimes order from Manchu Wok when I'm at a food court. The ambiance is beautiful. The service is great. The food is extremely mediocre. The restaurant desperately needs a chef that actually takes pride in their food. I can't believe that I paid 40$ for Manchu Wok.

Tri Tran

Great wine list, nice atmosphere, unfortunately food was mostly average with a few high points

London Morrison

Had our wedding dinner here amazing staff.

Adam Hutt

Unfortunately booking almost two weeks in advance and emailing the reservations email about a reservation for the patio apparently “doesn’t guarantee” you a spot on the patio… even if you reservation literally says PATIO beside the time you booked. Really disappointed we got to the restaurant and they insisted we sit inside. The hostesses at first said no there’s nothing that says you booked the patio… ? Which there was.. as it literally says patio, and at the time that we booked during COVID, they were not taking reservations inside. I’m not sure how this wouldn’t guarantee us a patio table? Anyways, after explaining we booked the patio they insisted we wouldn’t even want to sit outside because there’s no AC and after we again explained we didn’t care, we specifically booked this patio as we wanted this ambience and to take patio pictures for the moving away dinner we already booked, they said there’s no room. So we sat inside, and asked our server if we were able to get a spot in the courtyard that had only two people in it at the time, and she explained they were fully booked. Honestly; we’re not gonna recommend this place to people and we’re not gonna come here again, it’s really disappointing the response we got as we had been dying to come here for so long and really wanted to enjoy the patio or courtyard setting. We did everything we should have to secure this important dinner reservation for our family To enjoy, but we were basically met with a “shit out of luck” attitude and the food was mediocre.

Linda Nguyen

Great service, great food attractively presented. Nice and warm sitting outside under heat lamps.

Patrick Potter

Came here for Happy Hour! Great food!

John Pyper

We recently had our Wedding at Brix & Mortar. Couldn't have been happier with the food, service, help we received with the planning or the venue itself. Top notch.

Tonye Brown

Very friendly staff, delicious food and a great selection of wines, beers, spirits and cocktails. Great spot for a romantic dinner.

Heath Delzer

Phenomenal service, fresh, tasty, exquisite food, and fantastic ambiance. Highly recommended, especially for special occasions (let them know beforehand).

Sukhdeep Nahal

Very nice place. Went there on a Tuesday night and it was very quiet. Very nice place inside and sat at the bar. Bartender was very helpful and knowledgeable. What impressed me the most was the food dishes - the decent sizes and reasonable prices. The food was unique, portions much better than expected and it was well priced, especially for Yaletown. I can imagine it would be busy later in the week, but definitely worth a try.

Steve Leong

Still tops and n service and cuisine

Danny Tse

I was always curious about this terrace through a walk way until I decided to step closer to it. This restaurant gives a stunning impression as you walk in. I was promptly greeted by staff and got seated comfortably. The staff had a genuine attitude and seemed to loved their work! Made wonderful recommendations and it was a delicious meal. Thank you Georgia and your colleagues! I will definitely be back.

Clair Lam

I had the halibut special and it was totally amazing!

D S

As a professional wedding Officiant I am always thrilled when I get booked for a wedding at Brix and Mortar. The wedding staff are incredible and go above and beyond to make sure everything runs smoothly right down to the last detail. The venue is always spotless and decorated simply and elegantly. I also had the opportunity to stay for a few receptions over the years and their food is to die for. Fresh and local ingredients prepared in such a way that the flavors really shine. All in all an incredible venue to host your wedding from start to finish. Highly recommend you check them out.

Tige Johnson

Mediocre food. Pasta was oily and pork chop was gristly. Server was not familiar with the menu and not attentive to our meal. We have dined here in the past and believe the quality has gone down in recent years.

Kynan Suttle

We hosted our wedding at Brix in January and can't express how amazing Brix and the staff were! Everything was perfect from the food, wine, staff, etc... it truly was an outstanding evening. We have heard nothing but praise from our guests …

Graham Scholton

Very captivating atmosphere here, great date spot!

Brian Deo

Staff are a little rude. I went there for my birthday with a few friends and the waiter kept asking them why aren’t they ordering the main dish and instead taking pictures, talking and doing the normal event things. The restaurant has a 2 hrs stay policy, but when we stepped in the front desk told me they don’t have anymore reservations for our table after us for rest of the night and that we can stay as long as the place is open (the point is that we had no reason to be in a rush to order). However, we got starters and bottles of wine to get the night started before hand anyways. Unfortunately, not many of us liked our main courses at the end and it was a disappointment for such an experience and classy restaurant.

Dave Stevenson

Had an amazing experience on our anniversary. Wonderful service, surprised us with champagne and even though it was a bit late and they were going to close soon, they let us sit in their beautiful courtyard. The food was delicious! They went above and beyond and worked really hard, everything was beautiful and clean/safe, I can't wait to come again! ❤️

Richard Gee

Had a lovely evening at Brix and Mortar. Their upper patio is stunning - great ambiance in the evening with the lights and plants. Service was great - Ryan took care of us, made recommendations and assisted throughout the evening. We also had a lovely chat with the Manager - great West Coast hospitality from both! I ordered the chicken thighs and they were amazing - the best meal I had in Vancouver during my vacation.

Mark Liangco

I'm very much impressed with this place. The reviews were good, but they should be better for what this place is. We has squid starter and salmon main and both were incredible. I love how their menu specifies gluten free, shareable, and océan-sustainable seafood. Nice to see that. Plus service was impeccable - always checking on us to see how its tasting and if we need anything. Overall 5 stars across the board and highly recommend. (Our server was Chip who was amazing in himself!)

Have been looking for THE happy hour spot before Whitecaps games. This is it! The happy hour food proportions are generous (& delicious) and the drink specials extend to 30% off bottles of wine. Need I say more!?!?

Great atmosphere. Pricey drinks, but then, they use premium liquors so justified I guess. The drinks were definitely high quality and very creative and unique. The bartender was very friendly but in a professional way. He definitely knew his stuff.

I have passed by the Homer St entrance of Brix & Mortar many times and always wondered what it's like. I finally paid a visit last night and had a fantastic experience. From the very beginning we were made to feel welcome, the staff were fantastic, funny, genuine, had an in-depth knowledge of the menu and kept us happy and laughing throughout the night. The food and wine were also incredible. Definitely one of the better dining experiences I've had in Vancouver. Many thanks to Evan and everyone else at Brix & Mortar for a fantastic evening.

WOW!!! I went here for the first time during Dine Out last night, and can't think of a single bad thing to say about it. Service at other restaurants during Dine Out can be a bit slow or rude as they're so busy, but Brix and Mortar went …

The PERFECT wedding venue! The outdoor courtyard is gorgeous, private, romantic, and the food is delicious. I have an incredible amount of gratitude for Jennifer (owner) and Jaimie (wedding coordinator), who both went so far above and beyond to ensure that everything was exceptional. Bringing guests through the private entrance definitely delivers a "wow" moment, as the space is incredibly beautiful. Much of the planning was done via email, but on the day-of, Jaimie had every single detail impeccably planned. Our server could not have been more lovely, she called every guest by name. Every dish was photograph-worthy, and delicious. Thank you so much to all front of house, and back of house Brix employees that put in hard work to deliver us the absolute perfect day!

Just wanted to give a plug for Brix & Mortar as a wedding venue. As a wedding officiant for a wedding there last week, I found the staff very helpful and cheerful, and very attentive to feedback when adjusting music volume and heat levels. The outdoor/indoor space for ceremonies is so beautiful, especially the lighting - I loved the big chandelier and the little seashell lights on the brick walls in the entrance. Due to some guest misunderstandings, the wedding started quite late, and they did a great job of flexing with the changes. I would be happy to work with them again! - Beth Carlson-Malena - officiant with Young, Hip & Married

Guerric Haché

First time here was for a birthday dinner, poor service made for an overall bad experience. 30 min after our reservation time only 4 of our 9 guests were there, although they were just about to arrive. The server was very rude about it. Her words were along the lines of "so where exactly is everyone else, because youre reso was at 8 and its 30 minutes after that, so im not sure whats going on?" She made us feel incredibly inconvenient and told us we needed to hurry up and order because they wanted to close the kitchen early due to it being a slow night (it was 1.5 hours before closing time). However she wouldnt let us order our appys to start and insisted the whole party had to be there/we had to order appys and entrees at the same time, i work in a restaurant and have never heard of such a rule. Food was definitely delicious and worth the price point, and what im assuming was the manager came in to personally check on how we were enjoying dinner. Much more hospitable in those few minutes than our server ever was. The second we finished eating practically every staff member in the restaurant came to clear our plates, making us feel a bit rushed. When our server took payment she was still quite rude and cold towards us and never said thank you. As we were leaving a bartender none of us had ever interacted with asked us how our night was and gave us a very warm goodbye, again being more hospitable than our server. I thoroughly enjoyed the meal and the ambiance of the restaurant but the terrible service does not encourage me to go back.

Great ambience, good wine, good service. Food was average for yaletown. I had the beef tartare and had food poisoning. I will usually only get this dish at fine dining because I trust their preparation but I won't be going back because of my experience.

Benjamin Straight

The whole environment is good, decorating are nice and beautiful. At the same time the service was so good, foods were all very delicious!

Danton Nguyen

Food and ingredients are amazing. I love how they pickle their own peaches in house. The ambiance in the courtyard is worth the trip here. It is so romantic. Service has gone downhill in the past couple years though. Minus 1 star.

Ramin Vatan Doust

Service and food was awesome. For a small wedding it is the perfect venue.

Janus Weng

Staff is not helpful at all and rude. I went there few times at different events and weddings but I found them rude every single time. Food is also quite expensive but not worth the price. I will not recommend this place to anyone.

Olivia Yu

Sparkling service, very nice decor, wonderful solo singer who sounded so much like Nora Jones, fabulous dishes for the four of us.. gotta come back for other dishes like the mushroom toast.

Samy Elsisi

Exquisite flavors, the duck is a must try as well as the fried cauliflower salad.

Thank to Brix and their entire staff. My wife and I tied the knot a few weeks ago here and it could not have been more perfect. Everything was amazing. They are true professionals at what they do. And as my uncle told me, FOUR times, the food was spectacular. Go for the scallops and lamb canapé options!! If you want a smaller wedding in a beautiful space, with amazing food (and choices!) for your guests ran so smoothly you can focus on what matters, your partner and guests, this is the venue for you.

We went B&M for my wife’s birthday and sat in the courtyard, beautiful setting, round table for 5 of us under the chandelier. Fantastic atmosphere in a unique quaint setting. Menu was a delicious selection- bravo to the Chef! The evening was a brilliant success, all staff very attentive with first class service... all ended with a dessert with birthday candle presented to my wife. A memorable experience for all and we will definitely return!

Nazgol Goshtasbpour

I discovered this restaurant after a family friend of mine got married here, and after seeing the decor I could not resist visiting myself. Here’s how it went Let’s start with the good stuff: - It was a rather large party (11 people as it was my birthday party) and the restaurant was so accommodating, booking us for a busy weekend night with just one email. - The ambiance of this restaurant is beautiful. It feels both upbeat and rustic simultaneously, making it a great place to go for a fancy dinner that still feels casual. - The servers were so friendly and definitely deserve a shout out for being that attentive during a busy night. - Delicious food The negative: -Their “cake-cutting fee”, charging $3 per head for cutting a birthday cake. It kinda puts an asterisk of the festivities, and from my experience this is a highly uncommon surcharge from a restaurant. That being said, if you are not having a birthday party here I’m sure that won’t be an issue for you. Definitely a great restaurant to check out!!

Ward Brady

My husband and I got married here August, 2016. Could not have had more helpful staff! So polite and accommodating. Brix handled everything, no one had a single worry everything went so smoothly. We went back to Brix & Mortar recently to celebrate our 6 month anniversary. We were welcomed with champagne and again received top knotch service. Brix & Mortar is a 5 star restaurant, on of the best by far.

DMR Tech

We can't review the food because we never got to eat it. Waited an hour for it to arrive before we decided to just leave. Apparently everyone going to the U2 concert after got to eat food, at the expense of us ever getting served.

Spencer Kotowick

Overall good experience. Customer service is great, they take care of you and they will admit if there was a mistake on their part and will correct it accordingly; but, the food for me might have been a bit of a miss. The Kale salad with pork belly was amazing, the duck entree though, was salty and just rough around the edges. I might have to go again but not during dineout.

Madinah Ramji

Ambiance is good, service is decent. Food is okay. :) I ordered steak and its decently tasteful. A must try food is the chicharon appetizer!! I really love the Wither Hills wine though its on the sweeter side.

Jenny Schweyer

Outstanding! One of the top happy hours in Vancouver. Amazing food, cheap drinks, outstanding service!

Over priced, mediocre service, food was not cooked properly as ordered, kitchen staff not interested in correcting their mistakes.

10/10! My wife and I had our wedding at Brix and Mortar this weekend and everything went as smooth as can be! Our coordinator, Jennifer, made sure everything was well prepared and gave us a stress free experience. She along with her co-worker, Kim, made the whole process easy and enjoyable. Very professional and friendly. Dinner was fantastic after our ceremony. This venue is BEAUTIFUL and all the staffs go above and beyond. 100% recommend. Thank you Brix and Mortar :)

Tyler was our waiter for a work event & he was a great addition to the night. I have worked in customer service for 8+ years and you can tell Tyler is a people person and loves what he does. Would go back just for the hospitality!

Brix & Mortar is the best restaurant in Vancouver. We booked a 12 person informal wedding reservation and we couldn't have asked for anything better. The service was phenomenal, the food was cozy yet inventive, and the atmosphere very chic without being pretentious. I was blown away by the flavours & presentation of the food, the incredible cocktail program & wine list, and the kindness the staff showed every single member of our party -- all of whom said it was the best meal they'd ever had. We will all be back!

Joe Neighbour

Came here for a work event. The service was excellent!

Corbin Lock

We had an outstanding experience at Brix and Mortar. The food and wine were terrific, but even better was our experience with the staff - without exception they were wonderful. We got stuck in traffic and they moved people around to give us more time to get there. Their COVID protocols were excellent (among the best we have experienced downtown). The room was comfortable and quiet enough for conversation and privacy. Overall a really enjoyable evening - a ray of sunshine at the end of a rainy week. Thank you!

Lee Robinson

As a wedding photographer I've worked at Brix several times and each time has been a pleasure. The atmosphere is great, the food is amazing, and Jaimie the coordinator has always been great to work with. If you are looking at an intimate venue in downtown Vancouver, Brix is one to consider for sure!

Great service and good food. From the time we called to make the reservation, the service was great. They were accommodative to our request and pleasant to deal with. Very uncommon in Yaletown sometimes. Our server, Ashley was attentive and made our experience even better. Definitely coming back.

Suzanne Mandybura

Very nice and quiet ambience and portions are big.

Food / service / attention to detail / over the top. You won't regret visiting this fabulous restaurant.

Maling Sun

Food was okay, aside for it being overly salty. When we told they staff they happily offered to remake it. When they remade it, it still was on the salty side (not much was changed). When asked again, they said it was the sauce that is making it salty but we all knew it wasn't. The sauce was fine, it was the vegetables that absorbed all the salt. Service was good and staffs were friendly. It was just the food that gave us a bad experience.

Jan Schwieger

Excellent service and great food! The customer service was exceptional and the owner was such a gentleman... Patrick and staff are very welcoming. I was celebrating my brothers birthday last night and this was our first time dining here. I WILL BE BACK! :)

First class service to top off great selection on the menu! Love the ambience of the courtyard.

My cousin had her wedding here, the food was delicious and the venue is beautiful!

Alexandre ABRAHAM

I can say without a doubt that Brix & Mortar is a must go to place. I got married here recently, and they helped make the experience super easy for me and my wife. They helped us plan the menus, helped with timing out events, it was just incredible. The food was incredibly delicious, I recommend getting a steak and one of the coconut mocktails. We will definitely go again real soon!

Adriana Orta

Tasty plates, delish entrees, feels like 3 different restaurants depending on where you are seated. Service is great, vibe is tight. Bar menu amazing. Drinks could be a little bit stiffer for the price but oh well. Definitely will come back.

Overall was satisfied but not blown away by my experience at Brix and Mortar. The ambiance was amazing- the outdoor space is absolutely stunning. The service was also great- despite our server mentioning he was new (he did amazing and had a great personality)! However, the drink menu for cocktails was quite small. Although I do consume meat and found the duck to be perfectly cooked and full of flavour, my partner had very limited option when it came to vegetarian dishes. I would definitely come back if I saw some additional vegan/vegetarian options on the menu! :)

Kaz Okuda

First time at this restaurant and it was lovely. Went there for Valentines Day. Appetizers and entrees were delicious, zero complaints. We had the scallops, braised lamb shank and the pork belly. Cocktails were great also. I gave them a 4 rating only because we didn't particularly like where we were seated. It's a nice place but we were downstairs where there's not much to look at scenery wise. All in all, great experience and I would go back and highly recommend.

Linda Tsai

Everything about this restaurant was A+. The service, the food, the decor, etc. etc. We came here during happy hour and to try the Taste of Yaletown menu- it did not disappoint. We came on a Saturday night and the hostess was able to get us a table right away. Service was immaculate and our waiter was so great and attentive. He was such a delight! Everything tasted great and the complexity of flavours was mind blowing. We had the short rib, creole pasta, and pork ribs, along with several appetizers (that focaccia bread though... so so soft and pillowy). We will definitely come again. Highly recommend!

JF Beaulieu

Excellent food and service. Great atmosphere.

Tracey Turko

Everything was great. Only thing is the prices weren’t correct on the menu. Example, $9 for dessert but charged $10.

Upstairs patio has really good ambience. Good food and a solid selection of drinks and cocktails. Staff was very friendly and accommodating. Lamb Shank is a must try.

I have never written a review before, but after experiencing this I need to warn people about this place. Horrible. Everything about this restaurant was awful. Celebrated a Birthday here with a set-menu provided by them for $52/person. We weren't allowed to order from their actual menu. The shared "dish" was bread, which was served cold and when asked for additional bread they told us they're going to charge more for it. The appetizer was a choice of a salad or a salad with cheese and tomato. It literally tasted like I pulled some weeds and grass from my backyard and put it on a plate. The entree selection was mushroom risotto, chicken breast, and a steak option that was an additional $14. I tasted all 3 and they were mediocre at best. The most disappointing thing was the dessert, a so-called cereal pudding. The dish tasted like a small bowl of un-flavoured gelatin topped with frosted flakes. On top of this, they charged us $60 to cut the cake we provided. I will never go back to this place and highly recommend you go somewhere else. If I could go back, I would've eaten at Mcdonalds instead. You will feel like you got scammed if you go there. Be warned.

Natalie Labelle

October set menu option was amazing. Great pairings and a delicious dessert. Highly recommend going her for a nice dinner anytime. Great service however if you are looking for a bit more space I would suggest asking for a table not on the wall as the shared bench seat and the space between the tables is tight.

Katie Rabb

Excellent food and service. Loved the cocktails, and the patio is lovely in summer.

Rouge Caramel

Incredible food, incredible atmosphere, incredible service!! My partner and I had the focaccia appetizer to start which was very tasty, and and he had the duck while I had the ribs - both were amazing! Huge shout out to our awesome waiter, Benjamin, who helped us pick great wines and was a pleasure to chat with. The flavors are so creative and yet so delicious (and that's coming from a neat and potatoes kinda girl). Highly recommend the ribs and will definitely be back.

Kathya Arteaga

The hotel I'm staying at directed my group to Brix and Mortar and it was a wonderful recommendation. My entire group loved the scallops and my gnudi was delicious. The service was also fabulous. I'm from Toronto or else this would be a new go-to for me! Cheers.

Rumi Keshavjee

An amazing dining experience that won't disappoint. Brix and Mortar offers an eclectic mix of appetizers and entrees that make you feel like you are eating something that you don't get at home very often (i.e. lovely Yellowfin Tuna or Wagyu Beef). While prices are "up there" they won't murder your pocket book. Service is paramount and from our host who greeted us to our table server Taylor, the experience was fantastic. The manager was also checking on every table to ensure everyone was happy and informed me the chef has been with them for 10 years and constantly rotating the menu to keep things fresh. Brix and Mortar has two dining areas... an open air courtyard upstairs off of Homer and a large bistro style feel (with outdoor patio seating as well) downstairs off of Hamilton. Each offer a different ambience but are equally enjoyable. Their upstairs may be booked most weekends for weddings or private events so check ahead when making your reservations. You will not regret giving this place a try.

Bryan Trudel

My nephew who is a Doctor at a Greater Vancouver hospital held his wedding reception at this location. Booked the place a year ago. Small but cozy restaurant. Since my nephew and his wife, who is a lab technician, invited many of their peers to attend. The availability to dance after dinner at this same location was great for the young couple and their friends. Because it is located in downtown Vancouver, the valet parking services is a plus & an excellent choice for a wedding reception. The food were small in portions but excellent. It was an excellent experience shared by those who attended. When you can impress an ex high ranking RCMP member, you have to say the place is excellent.

Hal Smith

The entrance/ courtyard is pretty, there was a private wedding party we had to walk through to the enter the restaurant, which was awkward. Upon entering the interior restaurant there is no central entrance with a host, I walked into people eating and looked for a waitress. Once seated took about 10 minutes to be greeted, 15 to order a beverage, and 20 minutes before the drink was delivered. Drinks were creative. The food was delightful! Large, multiple storey space. Different floor, different vibe. Courtyard and patio, with private room rentals available. For a more causal vibe request downstairs, patio is also downstairs.

Nancy Massicotte

We recently had the pleasure of hosting our wedding reception at Brix & Mortar, and had the most amazing experience. We HIGHLY recommend holding any event you’re planning at Brix & Mortar. We originally chose Brix & Mortar because of its beauty – the brick wall, chandeliers, covered courtyard – it is a secret oasis in the middle of downtown, close to transit, cabs, and hotels for guests at the end of the night. We loved the “all-in-one” venue that required minimal coordinating on our part. Brix literally has it all – a coordinator; cocktail, dinner, and dance spaces; tables/linens/etc; serving staff; amazing food; ambience; etc. The space is so beautiful as is, adding décor is optional. And with the beautiful courtyard, you feel like you are outside but it is covered for those “unexpected” rainy days in Vancouver! For us, it was the perfect choice! We were originally supposed to have our reception at Brix & Mortar in April, but due to COVID, had to postpone (and limit) our guest list. Jennifer and Jaimie from the Brix & Mortar staff were extremely patient and accommodating through the whole process of unknowns, decisions, and modifications that COVID forced upon us. To say I was an anxious bride with a million questions is an understatement (thanks COVID), but Jennifer and Jaimie promptly replied to each email and phone call with calm reassurances, thoroughly answering all my questions. The process of planning the night was seamless – they have held many events at their restaurant, and are set up for everything. There are many options for food, drinks, personalized his/her cocktails, open bar/cash bar, etc. They were accommodating and flexible when it came to adding personal touches for the evening. We especially appreciated Jaimie and Jennifer’s attention to our bill and working around our selected budget. While the night was a little different than planned due to COVID restrictions, it was perfect. The restaurant was beautiful, the serving staff were attentive and friendly, the food was amazing, and there were no issues! I would HIGHLY recommend Brix & Mortar for any event you are planning!

Ian Muirhead

Absolutely Gorgeous! Service was great, food was great, ambiance was great. I had a dinner on my birthday and everything was great.

A lovely space and great atmosphere. Food quality matches price. Had to get the attention of the server a couple times but very pleasant staff members otherwise.

Cindy Tang

This is a review for our wedding ceremony here. We had a small ceremony in Jun 2021 on the hottest day ever recorded. Throughout the whole pandemic/planning phase Jennifer and Jaimie were great in accommodating our wedding changes. The venue was gorgeous on the day of and Jaimie made sure everything ran smoothly and kept us will hydrated and cool! Thanks again for making our wedding day so smooth!

Adam Halat

I went there for Dineout festival. Surprisingly the portions were big!! But the duck breast was super salty

Richard Teng

Not sure how this restaurant got such a high rating. We’re told right at the beginning to watch our time because our reservation only held for two hours and they had “other” customers after us.Our servers were polite and attentive but my wife’s white wine was warm. Had to send it back for chilled. How do you miss that? Ordered the tenderloin medium and it came blue rare. Sent that back too. The host comes to apologize, had his mask at half mast and kept putting his hand on my shoulder? Left after an hour and a half and the place was still half empty. Check your game B and M. Never coming back.

Service = nice. Food = way overpriced The environment is nice but the quality of the food isn't worth the price... You definitely pay the "Yaletown" location, but not the quality one. You can definitely find better (or equivalent) for less! Very disapointed... I would NOT recommend this place. Only for a glass of wine or a cocktail to get the vibe! If you get the duck... please say RARE when ordering it. This just how a breast duck is supposed to be served...

Tried to get drinks and dessert after dinner. Was refused entry on their patio because "restaurant policy is to order food". Patio was half empty.. very dissapointing service. Would not recommend.

Erica Bone

Came here for a birthday celebration. Good food and excellent ambience. The live music was a nice touch. I’m not usually a rib person but I ordered the ribs and they were very delicious, just too salty for me to be able to eat all of it. The vegetables were cooked perfectly and the rib sauce was amazing. I rate this place 4 stars rather than 5 because of the service. Our server did the absolute bare minimum; asking for our order, bringing the food, coming back once to ask if it was good, then back at the end for payment. The machine’s lowest suggested tip percentage was 18%, which I did not feel was earned by the service. I assume it’s because the restaurant is more on the fancy side. Everything else was great.

Phil Bubis

Love their cocktail! We tried the summer dine out event, the service is nice and the food is delicious. Unfortunately there is a wedding going on, so we couldn’t sit-in the other nicer, decorated area.

Fantastic experience. Went early and caught the happy hour 4-6pm plates and discounted drinks. What a bargain! One of the best values I have experienced in recent memory. Service was excellent also. The plates in the attached photos are $8 each.

This place only opens for dinner but its gorgeous, cozy and hip. I had my wedding reception here and Jennifer and Kimberly were super helpful. The venue is amazing and food is perfect. My guests all tell me how wonderful the small courtyard looked and how amazing their main dishes were. Staff were friendly and courteous minus the one server who had a bit of attitude maybe because it was so busy. I just expect a bit more patience from someone serving the head table. The bartender was super nice though and she made my evening because she was helpful and understanding. If little issues arise they helped me deal with it and it really did turn out amazing even if some things had to be tweaked the day of. Overall the evening was a great success and servers were awesome in helping set up my dessert table and reloading the treats. The locations is rustic with brick walls and classy with their courtyard vines and large mirror and drapes. I loved that their plants were fake as I'm allergic to flowers. And the best part is that the courtyard is covered so you can have you wedding rain or shine. If you want a wedding with 96 people or less with a cozy rustic feel that you don't have to do too much decorating or if you want greenery but you are allergic to trees and grass like me, this is the perfect venue for your wedding. You get the whole top floor for your party and they are accommodating to your needs. They allowed us to bring in our own curated dessert table with goodies from a few cake shops which was a big part of why i choose this venue. You have to have dinner here to know what I'm talking about. Their halibut is tender and hot in the center and their beef tenderloin in medium rare is like melt in your mouth amazing. Even the foodies at my wedding had only great things to say about the food. The only downside is parking only available on the street but there is a lot a fee blocks down. Like all places in yaletown parking is a bit annoying but worth it.

Mark Ansermino

Actually the dine out 2020 didn’t meet my expectations - specifically in regards to foods. I cannot say how this is worth 45 bucks. The chef put too much lemon savour in the desert. The dining environment is good though, very hospital. Considering the fact, I would recommend first date to happen here. Don’t come here for the 2nd or following dates!

Doesn't surprise me it's empty as I sit here. Mediocre service. Tries to be a cute setting. If you like uneven floors, over priced food, and average cooking this is the place for you. Never had potatoes SO GREASY before. They're greasier than McDonald's fries on a bad day. Bread is covered in a mountain of salt. Only bonus was the drink was mixed well, but for the price it was not at all worth it.

Perhaps we came on an off night but our group of seven arrived at 7 p.m. and were seated right away but it took over 90 minutes for our food to arrive. It wasn't that busy for a Monday night and everyone else around us was served their food even though they arrived after us. The server kept telling us our food would be out shortly but after he said that, it took an hour before our meals were served. The scallops were tough and overcooked. The manager was unapologetic and offered to comp our bread, which was okay but we were never provided with an explanation. We plan meetings for a living and this will not be a place we will recommend to our delegates at our meeting in July.

Justin Leisle

Excellent service, nice atmosphere with the right choice of music to suit it. I reccomend the Ambrosia cocktail, very tasty!

We came on a cold rainy Thursday and sat on their warm and comfortable patio. The service was friendly and the food was great. Good specials and welcome recommendations by the waitress. Try it.

Yukie S

Very good dinner. The lingcod was particularly tasty and original. Very different flavors combined wonderfully: highly recommended. The flights of wine were also quite well chosen. We each had one and especially liked the BC red wines. The only thing that we didn't like very much was the dessert (chocolate pot de crème), which was a bit too sweet and overall pretty ordinary. (And the only reason for the 4 star rating instead of 5)

I would like to bring something to the owners attention, last night I mistakenly entered through the courtyard entrance, again just like the reviewer below me said I was pounced upon, if you cannot lock the courtyard door I suggest cordoning it off, I realize we are in a health crisis but this could be done a lot better, its not the action of telling someone off but the way the message is delivered and it was for sure a bit aggressive, I gave you guys 5 stars because I have been going to Brix for years and the food and ambiance is as always brilliant, hope to see you again soon albeit through the Hamilton St Entrance.

Edric Hao

Wonderful atmosphere. Good food, drinks, and service too!

Jared Formosa

Really delicious happy hour fare. A bit too expensive for regular entrees and such, but swing by during happy hour and split several dishes for a meal with more variety that's about the same price or even cheaper.

Maria Gatchalian

Food and drinks delight + special attention = 5*. Celebrated a couple anniversary here. They put us in a romantic spot and offered …

Happy hour menu is amazing. The beef tartare is one of the best in the city. Legitimately good food and great service. The only point off is that the cocktails aren't tasting as good as they used to.

We had a reservation for 8:15 last night. I had asked for a nice deuce top in the Homer Street courtyard when I made the reservation. We arrived about 5 min early and told the people at the table for us were still there and they should be wrapping up very soon. After 15 min, I checked back with maître d’ and the manager/owner came forward and said the previous occupants of our table are taking a bit longer than they should and asked if we could patiently wait another 10-15 min. We were in no rush so it wasn’t an issue. At 8:35, we were escorted to our lovely table in the courtyard. And within a few minutes of us sitting down, out came a couple of flutes of champagne ???? courtesy of the owner, which was a very classy touch. We ordered a few very tasty drinks ???????? recommended by our lovely server Laurel. As we settled in, we ended up ordering three share appetizers - mushroom toast, albacore negitoro, and the beef tartare - with the anticipation of ordering an entree or two to to share. The entrees were not necessary after the very generous portions of tasty appetizers. We sat and ordered another round of drinks, just kicked back and enjoyed the beautiful ambience among the amazingly ornate chandelier and mini festive lights in the very romantic atrium courtyard. After giving ourselves some time to digest the fabulous meal, we ordered a serving of fresh fruit sorbet to end off the evening. All in all a brilliant location to be in if you’re looking for a romantic restaurant with a diverse and delicious menu. Brix n Mortar gets 5/5 stars! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Great wedding venue. Awesome courtyard for ceremonies and it's heated for those cold days. Service was great and the bartenders were fun.

Came on Valentine's Day. The food was excellent, and the drinks were amazing. The bartender (Stefan?) makes a killer Negroni. Michael was hands down the best waiter I've encountered in my life, he made us feel right at home! Dude deserves a raise!

I constantly come by getting some food in this place. I love the efficient service and well cooked food. Keep up the good work.

Lukas Coetsee

We just had our wedding at Brix&Mortar on September 2nd, 2017 and I cannot say enough amazing things about it. Where do I even begin! The venue is absolutely gorgeous, the food is out of this world and the staff were incredible. Our guests have been raving about it non stop the past few days. I cannot get over how special the night was for us, and we owe it all to Brix! The event coordinators, Jennifer and Kimberly, were so helpful and all of the night staff went above and beyond our expectations. I HIGHLY recommend this venue to anyone looking for an option in the city. Love, love love!

Daniel Silver

Probably one of the best filet mignon I've ever had. The steak just falls apart without a knife. The tuna tataki had the perfect spice and kick. The cauliflower salad was amazing and nutty. Staff were accommodating and friendly. Make sure you give em a try!

Adam Cronkhite

LOVE this restaurant so much! The beautiful courtyard and amazing service plus superb food and drinks make for the best night out. I'm getting married here next year and i cannot wait, since the very first time I dined at Brix i knew i needed to get married there.

The food, the ambiance, everything was amazing! We loved the wine recommendations. The food here was so good! The meat were cooked to perfection and the apps were presented do beautifully. Fine dining at it's finest :)

Honestly an average place for high end food. The prices for the quality of food I think is a bit much. The food wasn't anything super special and the flavours were that of an average restaurant. For the price I was expecting a lot more. We had the cheese platter which did have a good selection of cheeses and the AAA beef tenderloin. I asked for medium, the steak seemed to come out well done and a bit too salty for my liking. The interior design of the restaurant is incredibly gorgeous, however overall the food was not worth the price point for me.

theonly panda

Food on the salty side and too much grease on the duck main but the taste was very good. Carrot cake was very tasty but a bit over sweet. I think they just give you a bit much of the good things. Good sized portions. I had the mistress cocktail which really was spectacular.

David Farrely

Delicious food, great service and beautiful setting.

David Chong

Just had an amazing meal at brix and Mortar. If I could give this 10 out of 5 I would. The mistress cocktail and pork belly toast were simply phenomenal. Wow. That's really all I can say.

Tia Sanat

Attended a wedding here a few days ago. Beautiful courtyard for wedding, food was delicious. Will come back again for the food!

I've lived in Vancouver for four years and this is hands down one of the best restaurants. Consistently good service and amazing food all put together in a beautiful ambience. You won't be sorry

Carol Lawrence

Great personnel. Good food. A bit pricey.

Mark Lee

They have a great happy hour! Good selection of tasty small dishes for $10 each, great selection of craft beers for $5 each, cocktails for $7 each and wine for $6 a glass. Nice patio, friendly service and a great bar inside. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

Fabulous restaurant with excellent food and very knowledgeable staff.

I came here to celebrate my 30th birthday - it was a special occasion and I really wanted to pick an amazing restaurant to have it in. I picked Brix. Leading up to my reservation everything was great - the people on the phone were really quick in getting back to me and very helpful. However our actual dinner was made very awkward by both the manager and our server. We felt rushed and unwelcome. I called to tell them we were running late by 20 minutes and they said that after 30 minutes they’d open the table up, which I understand. Some friends arrived on time and from the get go we were rushed to place our food and drink orders, being told that if we don’t get them in at 630 the next reso at 830 won’t be able to come in. Our actual server seemed to just really not like us and came across cold and unfriendly. I don’t really know why. I had to ask three times for her to take a simple phone photo of us. She refused twice saying she “didn’t want to back up into the table behind us” and wanted to wait till they left. That’s absolutely bizarre in my opinion. It’s perfectly normal to ask a server to take a photo on a special occasion. I appreciated that we got a free round of shots (which were delicious) and a dessert on the house - the food was great. Anyway I asked our group to leave and go to the next place because it was 830 - a friend came late and was hungry and we would’ve preferred to stay there and have her order but as we were warned about the next reso I decided we should just go elsewhere. We went to the Keg and actually had an awesome time. It was relaxed and we were never made to feel like a burden or unwelcome as a group. Good food but because of our service I really didn’t have a good time here and wouldn’t come back. A friend ended up returning that night and saw that the table we left was empty. If there was a reso by then they either left or never showed up. Just a very weird experience and I’m really surprised, given all the good reviews. Anyway I hope this feedback is helpful for management. I’ve never been here before and in my opinion that’s not the way customers should be treated at an upscale restaurant. I sent this feedback in private following the meal but never heard back.

Had an issue with wrong dishes delivered to our party and Manager was combative. Likely not returning.

"In the middle of Covid, so enjoying their take out service. The lamb shank is fall off the bone tender and the sauce is divine, together with the roasted vegetables it's an incredibly delicious meal - my favorite dish in Vancouver. Hats off to the chef!"

The food was great and the reception was very polite - but service took a while

Michelle Deslippe

Dined at this restaurant yesterday evening to celebrate me and my partner's 4 year anniversary. The garden terrace is beautiful and the perfect setting for a romantic dinner. We were greeted by our server, Laura, at the table who was very pleasant. We started with enjoying a few wine flights featuring French and Bordeaux wines. We were able to taste through all the samples and determine which wine we wanted to proceed to order. We ordered the mussels and focaccia bread to start, both the mussels and broth were extremely flavorful and the bread was perfectly salted and paired well with the mussel broth. Dinner we enjoyed the duck breast and lamb shank, which were both perfectly cooked and just the right size for portion. We finished off with bread pudding for dessert, which was the recommendation of our server, Laura. The presentation of all the dishes were impeccable. We were also given complimentary glasses of Moet & Chandon as we were celebrating 4 years. Overall, the evening was perfect, the price was worth every penny, and would definitely return! Highly recommend.

Yvonne Yong (EvieExpress)

After eating here this evening, my husband and I decided we probably wouldn’t return. It was pretty disappointing that a meal of that expense came with mediocre service, mediocre food and bad decor (there was a wedding in the pretty part so we were seated on the lower floor). It also would have have been nice to have some complimentary bread. My husbands meal wasnt great, and they ended up taking it off the bill which was nice. The waiter also seemed to have an attitude but the manager walking around was really nice!

Good food. Good experience. Price is a bit on the up scale. Will visit again but won't be any time soon.

This is the most breathtakingly beautiful indoor dining space. Their charming, hidden away enclosed courtyard makes it any visit a special occasion. Food and drink are above average, but nothing super special.

Nikki Ji

I went here for my birthday. We had cauliflower hummus, cauliflower salad, and french fries to start. I highly recommend the hummus. I didn't like beef tenderloin-- it was bland. The bolognese pasta and lingcod were delicious. They have an extensive wine list. I recommend the gewurztraminer from Alsace. We ended the night with the bailey's cheesecake dessert. It was absolutely delicious. I would recommend this restaurant for its delicious food and romantic ambiance. The service is professional and friendly.

Jordan Cheng

Great service, ambiance, food, and live music. Perfect!

Best steak ever I had, delicious, tasty and fresh

Neville Khajotia

Been at this restaurant couple time and had good good. Service is great and their wine selection is fine.

Kristina Maryla

WOW!!! I went here for the first time during Dine Out last night, and can't think of a single bad thing to say about it. Service at other restaurants during Dine Out can be a bit slow or rude as they're so busy, but Brix and Mortar went out of their way to make our experience great. Friendly, ultra-attentive service, a beautiful setting, and probably the best Dine Out meal I've ever had. They even offered us our sparkling waters for free as they felt the food came up slower than it should have (which we hadn't even really noticed). I can't recommend this place enough, and will definitely be back!

Priscilla Goundar

For appetizers, we ordered their cheese and charcuterie (great but not exceptional). I reserve the exceptional compliments for their prosciutto wrapped sea scallops with duck risotto. I remember having this before and this was the highlight of my previous meal. We ordered this for the 5 of us (2 orders plus + 1 extra scallop) and it was exactly how I remember it. It is a bit pricey but I assure you, it was absolutely worth it. For our main, I had the ling cod which was very good. It was cooked well but I think it needed just a bit more flavour. Somebody ordered the pork belly and that... was.... awesome. I will need to order that next time! For dessert, we ordered the panna cotta... another home run. All in all, another fantastic dining experience with great service. Brix&Mortar, until we meet again.

Dragoljub Stamenkovic

I could eat the Roast Chicken every day, phenomenal food and a matching beverage program.

Federica Di Stefano

We chose this restaurant to celebrate my friend's bachelorette, as many recommended it and we heard great stuff. We left very disappointed; first of all, there was a dead fruit fly in one of our cocktails, which can happen, so we kindly told our server, who did not even acknowledge or apologized and just took it away without a word. Then our food came out and in our scallop risotto we found a strand of hair that was intertwined with the rice, we couldn't even fully get it out. When we told our server again, he just said a quick "oh sorry", which was not sincere or genuine at all. He did not make our dining experience pleasant. The irony of this is, that the table behind us also had issues with their food, same server, but we could hear him apologizing for the food not being on par with their standards etc. The difference in customer service was shocking. I have never met such a two faced rude server. Will probably not come back nor recommend this place.

Rachel Cramm

Beautiful restaurant, ate at in the atrium and it was a wonderful night. Food is prepared very nicely and the price is not too steep for the quality.

Bill Dey

Place has its perk just Location food was decent I got to say I’m not impress with the graduatity 20 doller tip already included for what? Bringing out a couple dishes and a few drinks. Not to mention the waitress got help and he broke a glass too. I’m not saying they don’t deserve a tip , they are friendly ppl but she probably got over 80 doller tip for a table of 7. Isn’t it 8 ppl at least for graduatity. And come on I’m a stundent. 8hrs of work to pay a 125 doller bill. Literally paid for 2 main 1 small plate 2 beers and two glasses of wine. Thanks a lot

Their new winter menu was very flavourful, beautifully plated, and the servers were very kind and knowledgeable about the menu. The atmosphere was cozy and intimate. Perfect place for a date night.

Christian Colquhoun

Good service, good outdoor patio. Scallop is amazing good. The rice is crispy and tasty when cook it with duck fat. Main course we ordered Lamb and Halibut , both are so so . A little bit on the dry side. octopus salad is unique but it doesn’t match with watermelon. roasted potatoes and pasta ( they special made for the kids)are pretty good. My kids love it.

Lisa Leo

Excellent food (Salmon) with a nice BC wine flight pairing. Parking on weekends is Yaletown-typical crazy.

Louie Bryan

One star for the good waiters and bartender. Nothing for the rest. Food is wayyyy overpriced. We booked the venue for paying over $130 per head and the amount of food served for that price is too little. When i was leaving the venue i asked how I could get to Homer St I was told by a waitress to go round the block. What the waitress did not say is that i could have went through the back door.

My new FAVORITE restaurant in Yaletown! I newly discovered this gem and have been twice in the past week because it's That Good!! I've taken a total of 9 friends now to eat dinner and 100% agree this is some of the Best quality food and incredible service they've had in Vancouver! I Highly recommend the prawn/jalepeno pasta, the ribs and the chicken dishes! Great portions for sharing ???????????? YUM! ???? Big Shout out to the management (Patrick) and server (Sasha) for ensuring my birthday dinner celebration was perfect in every way from the moment I made my reservation till the moment the bill was paid! Absolutely impeccable, professional and superb treatment, drink & food quality from beginning to end ????????

Jonathan Harris

Absolutely incredible venue for weddings and really ideal for any couple that wants a more relaxed and intimate wedding in Vancouver. I've captured over 4 weddings here over the years and each time it's been a fantastic experience. There are several locations nearby for portraits, the courtyard is perfect for the ceremony and family formals and everything has always run smoothly due to the care and attention to detail of the staff at Brix & Mortar. 5/5.

Ryan Ghan

Dining experience at this restaurant was OK. Ambiance on the patio is beautiful. Food is average for Yaletown. This restaurant lost most of its stars with service. The gentleman that answered the phone clearly does not enjoy his job OR has the attitude that he’s better than you because he works in a restaurant that has a reputation for fine dining. Some individuals tend to forget that when you’re in a line of service it’s important to provide that to clients in order to maintain a reputation and have people come back as well as recommend the business to others. Based on service alone and seeing that there are many other options in the area, I would recommend other restaurants before this one.

Michelle Hillock

I really wanted to like this place. They also do weddings and events therefore if they were suitable, then I wouldn't have needed to keep looking. Overall it was okay. The food was okay but nothing to write home about. The steak was kinda dry and could have used more sauce. We asked for more and they gave us a few tablespoons of extra sauce for $2.50 which is... interesting... and price was unannounced, but we didn't bring it up. Fish was under seasoned (bland), but the shrimp mango salad was good. Water is refilled quickly. Our server declined to make any other type of small talk. The level of service was noticable to us and I was surprised. At other similar restaurants we have rated, the servers are attentive and friendly. For example they usually explain menu items, give recommendations if asked, comment on how our night has been, our relationship status, any special occasions etc. However at Brix and Mortar there wasn't any of the friendly banter or service. Especially considering that it's Valentine's Day ... It's low bearing fruit to achieve a higher rating service wise. I don't think server ever introduced her name. The manager was good and rotated through the tables. Food came extremely fast. Set menu was $80 per person, additionally we had 2 cocktails and 2 champagne*. Cocktails were not the flavours I expected. Champagne was a little flat. There was a mix up with reservation where the reservation we made was *taken* by someone else with the same name. It's not that^ client's fault since he couldn't have book himself in, so it was probably a miscommunication with scheduling staff where staff misunderstood that^ client calling to book as calling to confirm appointment and gave them our reservation by mistake. All good in the end as both parties got to dine and our *champagne was compensated. Food: 3/5 Service: 3/5 Atmosphere and decor or courtyard 5/5

Byron Tammerick

Went here with a few friends on a Thursday night, service was okay. Food wasn't super spectacular. At the end of the night, apparently a friend saw a rodent and got frightened, received no empathy from the waiter but justified that it was normal. Drinks was super unpleasant, if we wanted to grab tequila shots that night we would have just done so instead. Would I recommend this place? Hard pass. There are so many amazing restaurants in Vancouver instead.

Corentin Babaud

Two friends and I went for our annual after Christmas/before New Year's dinner. Wonderful service from Jonathan, particularly when he suggested and then decanted the wine so it could breathe properly. Also helped me get to a cab (I walk with a cane). Very sweet. Food was excellent and lovely atmosphere. Wine list excellent too. Will definitely go back.

The waitress probably want to go home ASAP because the restaurant close at 9pm, we left the restaurant around 9:15pm. A fine dinning finished within an hour. We brought our friend here for his birthday. We had a reservation at 8:45pm, I got a phone call from the restaurant said we can come earlier because their last call is 9pm. We arrived before 8:30pm, and had our orders before 8:30pm. We ordered a bottle of wine, three appetizers, and three main courses for three people to share. And we guess the waitress forgot our wine because she took away our glasses while we were having the appetizers. After that, she served one of our main course. We almost finished it and still waiting for other two. We asked for the rest of the main courses, but the waitress forgot to take the other two mains. The waitress showed us her notes that there’s no other dishes we order. I don’t know why she showed us her notes, that’s not our problem that you forgot most of the orders.

I think that Brick & Mortar is a little known gem! The food, service and ambiance of the patio was exceptional. Check it out. My wife and I celebrated our 30th Anniversary dinner there.

Ordered the striploin, it was the size of my palm and around $38. A group of 8 went for a friend's birthday, they generously added the 18% gratuity and charged us each $10 per slice for the cake WE BROUGHT. I will most likely never return.

The muscles were great. The bar selection is quite extensive and the food was great. It's also in a cool area.

Enda Sheil

I did not make a reservation and walked in the restaurant about 6pm. It was a warm evening so most chose to sit inside. I couldn't get a patio table but was happy to sit inside this eloquent bistro. I had my service dog with me and there was no problem me getting her in. Within a few minutes of coming inside it was a nice gesture of the staff to offer my dog a bowl of water. For my appetizer I had BEEF TARTARE ‘ABURI STYLE.' It was beautifully presented and the different, delicious bites I got in my mouth was just divine. For the main course I had their 'BRAISED PEACE RIVER LAMB SHANK.' It was quite simply the best lamb shank I have ever had. Ryan was very attentive towards me and he made sure I was well taken of, from the beginning to end. Oh, by the way, the cocktail I had 'YOU’RE HOT THEN YOU’RE COLD' was simply one of the best cocktails I have had anywhere and I have visited many countries and tried different ones.

Amazing and delicious food; my birthday dinner couldn’t of been more perfect. Thank you Brix!

Jrod Dski

We had such a nice experience at Brix & Mortar! We were going to sit out on the patio (heated and covered) because of COVID-19, but everything inside was very clean and well spread out so we sat inside instead. The atmosphere was excellent - it felt very relaxed but slightly more upscale at the same time. The staff were all super attentive and gave great service. The food itself was very tasty and I would argue very reasonably priced. We had the oxtail/short rib and lamb dishes. They brought over an extra dessert on the house for my boyfriend's birthday which was a nice touch and very appreciated. The live music was also a great addition to the vibe. Overall it was a great night with very friendly and professional service. Would definitely come back!

Obi Vattanawong

Awesome place! I went there to a wedding. This is probably one of the best places to host special occasions. Great food and service too!

Cat R

Food was okay. Small portions, expensive, and really nothing extraordinary. Server was rude. Patio was ridiculously hot in the summer and our requests for the heater to be turned down were denied. (We were a party of about 15 and were 80% of the people on the patio, and we all found it way too hot - we were sweating at 9 o clock at night.) It's a beautiful looking restaurant though, and in a very nice trendy area of Yaletown.

Gino Shay

Very accommodating for our group even though we didn't have a reservation. Craig was great, super friendly and attentive! Loved the Sea Scallops and Hazelnut Panna Cotta, Rock Fish and Lamb Shank were only okay.

Chris Hatty

I took the longcod and my wife took the salmon. I was quite satisfied with my meal but the salmon of my wife was clearly overcooked. I took the pot du crème as dessert and it did not taste a lot like chocolate. For me this restaurant is overrated and I would advise people to go to the flying pig instead of this one.

A good choice for a wedding ceremony. Duo d'Amore, a string duo, trio and string quartet has performed a number of weddings and corporate events at this restaurant. Beautiful!

The ambinace and staff were great but the execution of the food was off. The dishes were imbalanced and the ingredients weren't allowed to speak, instead being overpowered with aggressive sauces.

I took my dad there for celebrating my birthday as I went there few times and I enjoyed the food and service. I made my reservation 12 days ahead and requested to sit at the courtyard area. When we got there, they offered a table that's right next to the door. We asked if we can switch to another table instead, the staff told us right away they are fully booked before trying to help us to switch another table even though there were few tables available that time. I later on talked to the manager about it, all he said is it doesn't matter how many days I reserved ahead, there's nothing to do with their system. And if they are fully booked, there's nothing they can do. Food is still great but I'm not happy with the service I had. I'll not go to this restaurant anymore.

Excellent first night out dinner in a year Excellent Staff fantastic food good security (pandemic safety)

Brett Welch

Good food but you go for their cocktails. Same kitchen and hence quality for food as Brix above.

Jean Hannon

Haven’t even been to the restaurant yet, just made a reservation and the service on the phone is terrible already!

Went here for NYE dinner and it was lovely! We had a preset dinner meal and the food was exquisite, service was also great. The live music was excellent, I’m not sure who the singer was but her voice was quite incredible:)

Yvonne Finley

Had dinner here tonight for the very first time with my wife. I had the AAA 7oz steak and my wife had the Vegan Harvest. Food was amazing. Our server Laura was fantastic. She was very kind and attentive. Food and drinks came in a timely manner. Highly recommend!

Necqui Teja

Slow service, mistakes all over, drink were mixed up. Bread was... wet so moist is was like soggy hands

Andrea Denham

Food was pretty good but the service was a bit curt. Went for the Vancouver dineout menu and got the Vancouver dineout service I guess.

Food was fantastic! Our waiter, Michael was one of the best waiters I've ever had. Would highly recommend!

Stacey P

Stopped by without a reservation and the staff was very accommodating. Service was quick and attentive, the recommendations on point. We ordered the duck breast over corn polenta hash and the salmon. Both were perfectly cooked and paired well with a few of the many wines they had by the glass.

Jared Wong

Got takeout - Good customer service, but food is nothing special and slightly overpriced if you dont get their specials.

Great food, great service. Would go again

Our experience here was amazing, our server Tim gave great service and was very personable! The live music was a good touch as well, Antoinette had a beautiful voice and even asked us if we had special requests! The only downside was they did last call very early at 8:45ish

Wonderful atmosphere, attentive staff and delicious food!

Jocelyn Lee

Wow, I would absolutely love to come here again! The atmosphere is the best; great songs, lighting and music. The service is excellent, as soon as I finished my water the glass was filled again. Definitely recommend, it’s a bit more expensive than other some around but it’s more than worth it!

Moussa Bassiony

I loved this place. The drinks and foods were unique and top-quality. The servants were nice with good manner. I ordered a drink named First get hot then get cold or something like that which I loved!!! My husband ordered an old-fashioned whiskey cocktail that he liked very much. And the environment, oh it was a delight!!! Definitely will go again!

Martin From BC

Absolutely an amazing experience. The food was delicious and everyone made you feel so welcome. Thank you for the 5 star service

Rebecca Lambert

Came here for the Taste of Yaletown festival and they had some amazing food (see photos). The atmosphere of the restaurant feels very upscale and luxurious and I felt like I was a bit under-dressed for it. But the staff is very friendly and nice. The food was also very delicious and generous portions. Would definitely recommend for a special ocassion!

Aaron Barry

Friend's wedding here. Great service and beautiful food. Thanks!

Megan Dunphy

Went there for dinner, and honestly, it was good! The cocktails were really yummy, (definitely one of the highlights of the meal), and all the dishes we ordered were cooked very nicely! Service was also great, we loved our visit!

David Mao

It’s ok. High end price, high end looking restaurant. The garden area is great. But the service was not good at all. The waiter told us one thing; the kitchen gave us something else. Would not go back; rather spend my money elsewhere.

Xtinepaige

Food was amazing, flavourful and definitely worth the money. Our waiter, Tim, was the kindest soul we have ever met and contributed to the amazing experience we had. We had a great time and will be returning! Will definitely be recommending to our friends :)

David Hoang

What a amazing time Fantastic everything !! From the Service to the Atmosphere would definitely recommend
