The "stupendous" view of Stanley Park, the mountains and "seaplanes taking off" is the draw at this West Ender where the "decent" Pacific NW plates get mixed reviews; still, with "cool surroundings", "hip" decor and a "beautiful backlit bar", it's a "place to be seen" and "fantastic" for drinks.

Several of us have had drinks on their patio in summer, one of the best in the city, but none of us had actually eaten downstairs in the restaurant. We hadn't made a reservation, so decided to take a chance on their ability to accomodate us. We were not diappointed!
As this was a Saturday evening and we didn't have a...
