I live down the street from this place and sadly can't visit it as much as I'd like (my husband has a whole bunch of allergies that make most Asian cuisines tricky to navigate) but whenever I do go there I'm always really pleased with everything I order. The prices could maybe be a BIT cheaper but short of going all the way to Commercial I'm unlikely to find anything competitive in the area.

Their dim sum menu is small but really good, and their hot pot is super-tasty. On the rare occasions when I have enticed my husband to join me they've done their best to accommodate his allergies and serve him up a decent meal. Their milk tea is also really good. I just wish I could haunt it more often!

Been going here since it opened as well as when is was on Denman. My all time favourite is the Katsu Curry. YUM!!!!! It is not the kind of Japanese curry you make at home or at your Japanese friend's place, but it's equally awesome and creamy. The Shrimp cocktail is delicious as well. We have tried almost everythign on the menu. Yes, the prices have gone up and the side salad that came included with some of the dishes is no longer there, but all restaurants that have been running a long time has had to make similar adjustments.

We have continued to go here because of the food. Sometimes, the service is lacking since there is only one staff/server in the dining room. At times, this causes her to be awkwardly rude and disrespectful. If the place is packed, you may be asked to leave before you are ready to leave! This is my only complaint.

BTW, the chef is Japanese and his wife, the server, is Korean.

Went with friends on a weekday evening for dinner. We ordered two pizzas, the Prosciutto & Arugula and the Salsiccia, split between the four of us which was enough to fill us up. The pizza was delicious and the service was good. I honestly can't think of any negative comments to say... the price is fair, for downtown Vancouver restaurant prices, since usually pizza is split up between two or more people. Would definitely come here again if I were craving pizza while hanging out with friends downtown.

My husband and I came after work. Sat on the "patio" - beautiful glass enclosure and awesome view of the river etc. In a great location with awesome new developments. The buiding itself is spectacuclar - great reclaimed wood, concrete, etc. That's sadly where it ends. What a thud for the amount of money someone shelled out.

Thud 0ne - unisex bathrooms are cutesy and trendy - but I don't want to go to the bathroom and smell man piss on the floor. Thanks anyway.

The menu - I looked and looked and looked again - I could NOT find anything remotely that interested me to order. Olives? Um no thanks. Hot nuts? Cute. The waitress mentioned the "special" burger that was lamb and a bunch of other items. I joked to my husband that I'd order that except hold everything except for the bun and the cilantro. It was like they look my list of everything I hate and put in on one burger.

I did not get the food. Plus all the burger were $12-14 PLUS and sides were extra - no fries or anything included. WOW. We had one drink and left and ate elsewhere. It was more than half empty on a Friday night, so it looks like a lot fo people did the samething

Went out after my friend's choir concert in Vancouver. My friends raved about the place but didn't seem that special to me.

-It was way too loud inside, hard to hear each other when talking.
-My food was okay but nothing special. Actually I got kind of sick of it and decided to stop eating it because I felt it wasn't seasoned well, tasted very plain.
-The portions are pretty generous. I did notice that the nachos came in a HUGE portion which was nice. My friends loved them, so nachos here are good.
-Price was okay for a bar in Vancouver, but I think I spent too much for food that was pretty plain tasting.

Overall I had a mediocre experience and would have rather spent my money elsewhere.

We lucked out and got there before a small line up began forming outside. It seems that some people get seated in a preferential sort of way but the staff were good. The food was a little pricey but pretty good. The location in the city is run down and the restaurant itself really is a dive, but in a good way. It has a cool retro feel and the customers are what you would expect to see along Commercial Drive which is cool. They are relying still on their debut on the Diners, Dives, and Dirt Holes. Once the novelty wears out, they will have to work a little harder and sharpen their pens around price points but overall, it was worth the trip over to this part of town.

They moved from Harbour Centre food court store. New to Robson street. Welcome. This place is fantastic. Butter Chicken and the Chilli chicken it excellent. Try the mushroom rice and the fresh Naan from the Tandoor oven.

Only $9.00 for 2 meat curries, Mushroom rice, fresh naan and fresh chai. It's lovely. They have modern Indian Naan wraps too. I'm going to try next time for sure.

Although the staff (specially that woman who with the big ear rings and a beautiful smile) is very friendly and helpful. No need to wait. FOOD IS READY. NO NEED MENU OR WAITING TIME. Just look and order.

This is definitely up to the standard of our big Indian restaurants. Try CURRY FUSION. You won't be disappointed. Amazing food.

This afternoon I enjoyed a wonderful lunch with a premier business client at the Dockside Restaurant in Granville Island. The ambiance was the perfect setting for such lunch and the view of the harbor is beautiful. The service was fantastic and our server was attentive but respectful to our lunch meeting. Although I’m sure Dockside is more noted for its seafood I opted to go with the Dockside burger and it was everything I could ask for and more. It was sided with a delicious Caesar salad topped with fresh parmesan and real crisp chunks of bacon. We were seated inside for our lunch but with a beautiful patio overlooking the water I can see myself enjoying future meals while soaking up some sunshine. I will most definitely return to Dockside and refer my clients to this definite gem of Granville Island dining.

From the moment I walked in, I knew this place would be authentic Mexican. Awesome!! The decor is hip and trendy, with a casual atmosphere, and beautiful wood counters and Mexican ceramic tile floors, like the ones you would see at a hacienda patio. The smell of the food cooking opened our appetites right away. We sat at the bar. My husband had a mezcal flight, which he was pretty impressed with, and I had a tamarind martini. OMG, soooo good!
We ordered ceviche, queso fundido, and tostadas. The ceviche is fresh and delicious, it took me right back to a beach front palapa in PV. But if the ceviche was good, the cheese was amazing! Sizzling in a black rock bowl, served with warm tortillas... yum! I scratched the crunchy cheese that was stuck to the bowl at the end. I could eat this every day. Seriously.
I'll be coming back every month, no, every week....mmmm, ok, maybe daily.

I think before you go to the Rumpus Room, you should realize what its potential is. It's a place you could go to relax with friends and have a meal, yeah... but it can be much more. My scenario involved me and some friends grabbing a couch, pulling out "Sorry" and playing a game. They've got Jenga, Operation, and a few others to play around with while waiting for your meal and drinks.

Whether you're getting fried chicken with waffles and gravy or one of the better hot dogs I've had, this place does comfort food right. The drinks aren't half-bad either, and there's this one involving a pickle... very recommended!

But hey, it's probably not for everybody, but don't be turned off by the swarm of hipsters that congregate around the place at all hours. It's actually a very friendly clientele and staff, that all make you feel welcome. Very communal. Great experience!
