I like the choice of pubs in New West, there is something for every taste. There’s cheap and reliable like the Duck or the Moonrakers, the Heritage Grill with its live music every night, and there is the more “upscale”, newly renovated Old Terminal Pub.

The Old Terminal has the type of food you’d expect to find in a pub: burgers, sandwiches, appies, etc, but also offers more creative dishes such as a pulled pork poutine (which is actually quite delicious). When I went, I had the spicy green beans (which aren’t really spicy but are still very good). Some of the people I was with had the nachos and they looked phenomenal. The crab dip also looked terrific. Another friend once had the salmon sandwich and said it was great. I can’t wait to try more of what’s on their menu. They have a nice selection of beers at reasonable prices, a good wine selection and quite the drink list.

The service is great. The staff is friendly and accommodating. I definitely have nothing bad to say about the service. Our server said she loved working there and that if she wasn’t working she’d probably just come to hang out anyways. I believe her, she seemed happy and cheerful. She was also quite nice and patient when our slightly drunk party left about 45 minutes after the bar was technically closed…

Value is there. It’s not dirt cheap but it’s not really expensive either. Prices are reasonable.

The ambiance is great. I haven’t been there before the renovations but the place looks really good with nice stone walls and dark hard wood. The place is impeccably clean too. The music is fine, my friends were impressed that they played modern indie rock and things like that. Not really my cup of tea but it did fit well with the atmosphere of the place, and it was not so loud that we’d have to scream at each other. They also have a couple of flatscreen TVs showing different sports.

I will definitely, definitely go back. I am looking forward to it.

Only negative: it closes really early (midnight on a Friday night!!) so get there early to enjoy as much food and drinks as possible.

Went here for lunch with the wife the other day. Ordered beef pot stickers, curry beef brisket with rice, and Shanghai noodles with green beans and pork.

Service was slow and inattentive to begin with (even for Hon's) and then the server said they didn't have steamed pot stickers so we went with pan-fried. Loads of grease is the best way to describe them which was quite a bit worse then previous times we've had them there. Curry beef brisket was good, always order it here, nice and tender. Noodles were like a greasy spaghetti with no sauce and little bits of pork thrown in. Not a winner.

Paid the bill and got out. The place looks like it could use some upkeep to say the least. Still, value is pretty good if your standards are low.

My wife and I visited the Orange Room for lunch. We realize that food in restaurants will not be perfect everytime so we usually put up with alot. This day the food that my wife ordered was unedible. When we told the waiter he said it is usually good. I told him that I am sure it is 'usually' good but here try it....anyways short story my wife had two bites and pushed the plate away. The waiter knew that we did not like it and took it away. When the bill came we were charged for that dish. My wife said to the waiter are you not going to remove this item? He said that he was sorry but the manager said not to remove the item. I tipped the waiter as it was not his fault but am not happy with the manager (who is the daughter of the owner). If something a restaurant serves is not edible and the patron has 1 or 2 bites and is done then clearly the food was not good enough. To tell us at the end that you have to pay is not good service.......I will not go back.

I heard about this place being newly renovated, so my partner and I decided to give it a try. We came in for an early dinner, around 5 on Saturday, and were promptly seated.

The menu was large, with a wide variety of different types of Thai food - based on the (numerous) other Thai restaurants I've been to, I'd say they have a decent selection, with most of the "traditional" bases covered with innovative or uncommon options (Squid w. egg noodles, anyone?). Prices for individual dishes were very good, and the combos were an especially good deal (basically 2 entrees, 2 appetizers, etc for 15$ per person).

Drink selection was broad; a good selection of beers, and wines, and a large number of non-alcohoic options. No cocktails, though, despite there being a bar in the restaurant. Prices were much better than many restaurants, esp. in downtown New West.

Ambience was very good; clean, "modern Thai" decor with dark wood, muted lighting, and golden Thai accents on the walls. Similar to the more upscale "Urban Thai" restaurants in Yaletown or Vancouver. HUGE room (probably seats 80 people, full) but made more intimate with a large number of spacious booths and nicely placed screens.

We ordered the chicken satay, black bean stir fry with prawns, and a beef red curry. Satay was nicely done, and the peanut sauce was EXCELLENT; definitely a winner there. I enjoyed the stir fry, which was generous with the prawns, and had a nice assortment of very fresh vegetables. Curry was also well done, with a good level of spicyness, and fresh veggies / meat. Jasmine rice was tender and seperately nice; very good! Overall, food was excellent. Service was attentive and pleasant, but not intrusive; zero complaints, there.

Overall, and excellent experience and definitely somewhere to return to. Very classy, excellent food, and the price was EXTREMELY affordable; I believe the entire meal, including alcohol and tips for 2, was only 45$.

The Ki-sushi is a very friendly spot, they treat you well and give great food.
I hope they stay here throughout the New Westminster downtown facelift. I like the chicken fried rice, really nice yam tempura and won ton soup.
will definetly be back again. Next time i will try the california rolls and theier house rolls are to die for.
Thank you.

This noodle house surprised me. The food was so so but when I ordered the mushroom noodle soup, I was shocked by how good it was. I am a picky eater but this bowl of noodle soup really impressed me. Noodles were so good. I am hungry just thinking about it.

The place is spacious and right at the casino so there is lots of parking.

I would like to come back to eat here more often but New Westminster is quite far to drive.

King Sushi is a nice looking little place, the restaurant is comfortable and looks reasonably clean (though they have issues with cleanliness according to the health inspections reports).

The service is efficient but never really friendly. Still, they’re not rude and they rarely mess up your order. As with a lot of Japanese places though, you often get your appetizers at the end of your meal.

The food is not very good. The sashimi tastes like fish water, and often you can tell it’s been in the freezer for a while and it has just been unfrozen (some parts in the middle are still frozen). The gomae is weird, they don’t blend the sauce with the spinach and the sesame sauce tastes a bit like melted kraft peanut butter. The rolls are too heavy, there is too much rice.

The prices are reasonable but since the food isn’t very good, it’s not like the value is great.

I –might- give them other chances in the future but I can’t recommend the restaurant. Go to Sushi Paradise on 8th instead. It’s cheaper and much better, and only a few minutes walk away.

The thirsty duck is decent; I think that would be the best word to describe it.

The ambiance is okay, typical for that type of neighborhood dive-ish establishment. It’s unpretentious. The music is what you’d hear on typical radio with some rock and some pop. Not my cup of tea but it fits well with the ambiance and it’s not overly loud or annoying. The décor is like most sports pubs of the type, it’s quite alright.

The service is usually friendly, but not consistently. Some servers are definitely nicer than others and if you complain, they may take it the wrong way. I’ve never personally had a problem with any of the staff there but someone I once went with did. But overall the service is satisfying.

The food is okay, the chicken wings are good and cheap, I have heard nice things about their pizza and last time I went, my friends had the burgers and they seemed decent. Their nachos are quite good. I’ve also had their mushroom neptunes (mushroom caps stuffed with cream cheese and crab). They’re quite good but you KNOW they’re really bad for you. Overall, the Duck offers cheap, honest pub food. The beer is also on the cheap side, which is nice.

Value is good, the food is extremely cheap, especially the daily specials, and the beer is reasonably priced.

I like the Duck and I certainly plan on coming back, you get what you pay for and you know what to expect. It’s nothing great but it’s consistently okay.

Oh, forgot to mention, it looks a bit dingy but it’s actually quite clean.

I decided to try Pattaya because I had a taste for Thai food, it is conveniently close to where I live, and they passed all of their health inspections. I was not disappointed, to say the least.

As mentioned by other reviewers, the place is tiny and doesn’t look like much from outside, but it is warm and inviting inside. (Only problem I found with the ambiance is that the strobe light they have outside reflected on the window and it was annoying me. I guess I could’ve just say to face the other way…) The place is also very clean and well maintained.

The service is simply outstanding, not terribly fast but not too slow either. But always remarkably attentive and friendly. It really does feel like they are happy that you’re there.

The food is very good. I must admit I’ve only ever tried to pad thai and the tofu swimming rama, but they were both excellent. I always want to have an appetizer but I never order one because I know I won’t be able to eat it all. I guess it’s good to go with people you can share food with.

Value is good, I don’t remember exactly what the prices are so I’m guessing it’s neither overprices nor incredibly cheap. It’s definitely on the affordable side.

Overall it is one of my favourite restaurants in New West and I should probably go more often. People should go there instead of Hon’s and King Sushi which are both right next door… The service is better, and so is the food and it’s cleaner too.

Very disappointed in new location. Too small and poorly laid out. First time ever h ad to line up . Waiting time would probably have been 1/2 hour. Didnt wait - very disappointing as the food and servicehave always been excellent
Have been going there fore years and never had a porblem
