  Phnom Penh came as a highly recommended restaurant online. Reservations are not accepted here so you have to walk in to put your name on the waitlist. It seemed as if the best time to come in so you could be accommodated quickly (within 30-40 minutes) was off times like 15:00. After much research we ordered the three most popular dishes: chicken wings, butter beef, and bo luc lac. As you look around the restaurant everyone has some sort of these 3 options. The main standout was the butter beef. It had a nice soft texture to it and once mixed with the sauce had a nice tangy taste to it that was memorable and like nothing we had tried before. The chicken wings were perfectly fried and had a subtle salty garlic taste but to be honest wasn’t that memorable. The Luc Lac was another dish that although good didn’t stand out. I recommend you come here as a group so that you can try multiple items and not just the most popular dishes. If you have time in your itinerary to stop by I recommend waiting but if your time is limited I’m not sure I would recommend waiting over an hour to dine here. Regardless we still enjoyed our meal and highly recommend the butter beef.

  We went at around 3:30 pm and thankfully there was no line at all! We were seated within 5 minutes of getting there:) The food absolutely lives up to the hype. The beef butter was just amazing and melted in the mouth immediately. The chicken was perfectly crispy and n didn’t feel oily or heavy at all! I ordered the durian sticky rice and I really loved it, though I wish the smell was stronger but I get why that wouldn’t be ideal in a restaurant lolol anyways the meal was amazing, service was great and fast! Will definitely come back when we visit Vancouver again!

  We'd been wanting to try this place for a long time because of the great reviews and constant lineups. We came early and ordered their popular noodle soup, butter beef, and chicken wings. Everything was good but nothing particularly stood out or worth the hype. If you can get seated right away, it's worth trying, but I wouldn't wait an hour in line for it

  10/10 highly recommend! Service was lovely. The entire restaurant crew was a well oiled machine and they were all happy and singing. To see a staff so lit up on the job was truly heart warming. Food was phenomenal. My partner is Mr French Toast and he said it was hands down the best he has ever had. My only critique is that the hollondaise was lack luster, any flavor gets lost in the egg yolk. Maybe a brown butter hollandaise or truffle salt even would be the cherry on top. Lovely atmosphere, attentive service. Unless you arrive at opening expect to be added to the waitlist. We waited about 20 minutes at 1045 am on Sunday. The French pressed coffee is soooo good. Flavorful and robust. If you have the opportunity, you must go!

  We had such a lovely brunch with fantastic servers who were keen for us to try their homemade sauces. These were so good!! Their ketchup was so nice. The food was delicious and a special shout out goes do their cinnamon rolls which were so tasty. The restaurant was such a lovely space with cool art on the walls.

  We headed there on Saturday morning and, surprisingly, didn’t have to wait. The place is really great! As for the coffee, they only have French press, but that didn’t matter. We ordered shakshuka, which was good, and a sandwich (good;the sauce and something green was on the side so we put it in otherwise it’s a bit plain (It’s just a brioche, cheese, and ham). We were in the mood for something sweet, so we ordered their popular banana French toast- same thing,quite plain/simple. Even though they serve it with maple syrup, it’s still pretty dry and I didn’t really surprise me. All dishes have great potential,would make them a little better.

  Popped in here before heading to a show and it was the perfect spot. Two of us sat at the bar and ordered The Boyfriend and a custom Martini. William was our bartender and absolutely nailed our drinks. A great atmosphere, lots of bustle.

  Great spot in Gastown with a really cool atmosphere. The cocktails were excellent — well made, balanced and honestly some of the better ones I’ve had downtown. Great local beer selection too, and the food was really good. Staff were friendly and attentive. Definitely a place I’d come back to.

  I’ve been coming to the Alibi Room for quite a while, and I honestly love what the new management has done with the place. It still has that unique Alibi Room character that made me like it in the first place, but it feels much more lively and welcoming now. The beer selection is still amazing, the food has gotten really good, and there always seems to be something going on. I especially love the atmosphere on weekends — it’s become one of those places where you can come for dinner and a couple of drinks and end up staying way longer than you planned. The staff have always been lovely with us too. Really happy to see an old Vancouver spot being looked after and given some new energy. Definitely one of my favorite places in Gastown. ❤️

  I had a great experience at Old Spaghetti Factory! 🍝❤️ The pasta was really good, and the drinks were amazing too. One of my favourite things is the complimentary bread they serve at the beginning — I always look forward to it! 🥖 Their pastries are also delicious, especially the pistachio one they currently have. The clam chowder was really good as well. Overall, a lovely place to enjoy good food, drinks, and dessert. Definitely worth visiting! ✨

  This was Day 3 since we arrived in Vancouver all the way from Hong Kong. We would like to thank Soraya for her service during our visit to the restaurant. She is passionate in serving us, and so patient when taking orders for my parents cuz their English might not be that good or fluent. She is also willing to help and acts quickly to provide whatever we requested. Besides, she is so friendly, which leaves us with a great impression during our first few days trip here. We really love her vibe, and indeed she did make our day ^v^. Thank you!!! (Pls forgive me if I spell your name wrong; my jet lag still hit me) The food was really good too: pasta, sauce, excellent balance (we tried pesto linguine, lasagna and manicotti). Garlic butter spread goes really well with sourdough. French onion soup was so fresh and hot, and Clam chowder was also filled with different seafood treasures (my parents really like it). Great design for the hot tea cup holder (light bulb shaped), so unique and special; good coffee taste with milk and sugar aside; ice cream is the perfect wrap-up for the meal (the trio mixed flavour is really good) Atmosphere there was good too, the place is very-designed and vintage in a good way. The train in the restaurants adds a glimpse of history taste, which can synchronise with the background of the Gastown. The weighing balance can hardly see in HK now so really surprised to see this and we also weighed our weight for fun XD. Overall, very impressive restaurant with amazing employees ❤️.

  Everything was really good! Our server was super kind and friendly. They brought us bread with garlic butter before the food, and we could choose between soup or salad with our pasta. The pasta itself was really good, and the tiramisu for dessert was amazing too. The restaurant was really big and had a calm atmosphere. Overall, we had a great experience and I’d definitely come back!

  I’ve been to this restaurant a couple of times—once with a friend and another time to pick up some takeout. Every time, the staff have been incredibly friendly, welcoming, and attentive. One thing I really appreciated is that Cristina and other staff members are willing to help you either in English or Spanish... You could give a try to your Spanish if you wish to do so! 😁 They also have some lovely outdoor seating along the sidewalk, decorated with beautiful flowers, which gives the place a really nice atmosphere. A beatiful stained glass of Our Lady of Guadalupe makes you feel at home! We’ve tried the chilaquiles and the ceviche, and both were absolutely delicious. I definitely recommend giving this place a try! The prices are very reasonable too. Great food, friendly people, and a really nice atmosphere. Definitely worth checking out!

  Big plates of Mexican food and a lively open-space dining atmosphere, what’s not to love? My wife and I enjoyed our dinner date chatting over some corn chips, guacamole and chilli sauces, gazing out at the bustle of the busy evening street traffic. Service on these starters were quick to keep our hunger at bay. Our huge main course plates held hearty combinations of tacos, tortillas over refried beans, rice and salad greens, with sizeable portions enough to put anyone in a food coma. This places is often busy entertaining large groups, as well as putting on a good dinner party to support the many events happening around the city. If you are in need of a spot to get fed in Gastown, this is one of the better ones.

  I love me some Mexican food and La Casita was fantastic. I had margarita and pacifio and my partner had a Pina colada, well made cocktails with great presentation. Our waiter had an amazing smile and was energetic with his approach. Service was fantastic. I had the chicken burrito (lg) $28. Came with Pico de galio , refried beans and Mexican rice. Some of the best refried beans that I have had. The burrito contain a generous portion of chicken which was well seasoned. My partner named the flautaus , vegetarian potato and onion which she said were amazing. Highly recommend this establishment . Great for a night out

  Went to The Cambie with a group to enjoy Happy Hour followed by live music on Sunday evening. Located in Gastown, this historic pub features heavily worn wood floors and tables that showcase its history and character. The Happy Burger and fries, chicharrón, and rum punch were affordable and generously portioned. The staff were friendly. The atmosphere shifted naturally from lively chatter among a celebrating sports team to a quieter, conversational space before the music started. A popular spot with authentic local character.

  Very loud but lovely and delicious place with a menu with many global influences added into the options. We had dropped a fork and a waiter immediately came with another one before we even picked up the fallen fork! It made for a very magical moment. The food was delicious, perfectly cooked and suited everyone’s tastes. Would definitely recommend for a fun outing!

  Enjoy coming to this restaurant. I ordered the lamb dish which is what they are known for. Huge portions, can definitely be shared with someone. It would be nice to order this, and something else a bit smaller and share with your friend. We sat in the round booth with red chairs. So it was really cozy, and good size to chat with everyone around the table. Very nice atmosphere that's not too loud, which is appreciated. So easy to chat with people. Other people ordered ahi tuna, tofu, mussels, and other dishes. I also had a glass of chardonnay. So it was a very pleasant evening songstress new friends and acquaintances. The server was really friendly and polite.

  Chambar is absolutely buzzing right now, just before the Bruno Mars concert, and the service has been exceptional! One name to remember: Conor, the fantastic bartender! He recommended the food for my husband and me, and we trusted his choices immediately — what a great decision! He somehow manages to remember everyone’s name, even in the middle of all the hustle and bustle. Conor is professional, warm, friendly, and incredibly knowledgeable. His attention to detail and genuine hospitality really stand out. Amazing service, great recommendations, and a wonderful experience overall. Highly recommend Chambar, and if you’re lucky enough to be served by Conor, you’re in great hands! The whole team rocks! Check the photos… the best cheesecake . Conor is on the first photo, Bryan on the second and Jeremy on the third.

  Came here for lunch with friends. Friendly staff, very efficient and on top of our food and drinks. We order the chicken plate, lamb plate and the cauliflower appetizer. They were also so delicious and highly recommended. Definitely will come back.

  We dined here on a Saturday evening while vacationing in Vancouver. The food was phenomenal and the service was more than what we expected. All the staff was extremely friendly. Even though we ate during their closing hours, they did not rush us and allowed us to order additional items. Highly recommend the mixed mezze dips platter and mixed grill platter. We ordered additional rounds of the lamb kebab because it was to die for. Cocktails were 10/10, every single one that we ordered was better than the last. I would however avoid the desserts. The baklava, though tasty was dry. The molten lava cake was refused and sent back by our kids. Didn’t look very appealing. We would definitely go back on future visits for dinner.

  Nuba was a great experience for elevated Lebanese cuisine in Vancouver. The grilled halloumi cheese skewers were absolutely amazing. The service was good, and the atmosphere was intimate. I’d come back.
