Foie gras sandwiches with fruit preserves sit alongside soft-serve drizzled with olive oil, the menu stripped to its essentials: lamb belly brochette, arctic char with sauce meunière.

    Contemporary New American

    In a bright room edged with greenery on Main Street, Chef Gus Stieffenhofer-Brandson builds dishes from fermented condiments, foraged ingredients, and West Coast precision—squash roasted and pickled, shrimp barely cooked beside apple and cucumber. The tasting menu and bar menu both deliver the same revelatory sense of timing, where seasonality isn't philosophy but practice.

    Peter Ho tends a 14-seat binchō-tan grill with the focus of a monk, rotating heritage chicken skewers inches from the coals until skin crisps and meat yields to the gentlest pressure. The omakase unfolds across impeccably butchered cuts—thigh, heart, oyster—each one glossed with a decades-old tare that tastes less like seasoning than like time itself.

    Chinese Cocktail Bar

    Behind backlit anatomical charts, a Chinatown bar channels traditional Chinese medicine into cocktails—durian and baijiu meet rum in a Colada; turkey tail mushroom deepens a Daiquiri. Crystal-clear house ice, funky DJ sets, and dim sum from neighboring dumpling shops complete the prescription.

Crisp snacks arrive in lunch boxes; the drinks are for adults, but the whole room feels like permission to play.

Downstairs, the listening bar Lala serves cocktails like the Noisette Manhattan, a browned-butter riff orchestrated by Keefer Bar veterans, making the pilgrimage to Cambie Village worthwhile.

    In Yaletown, a steakhouse where the adjacent butcher shop isn't decoration but doctrine: every cut sourced from BC ranches and beyond, Japanese wagyu for the serious spender. Start with Dungeness crab spring rolls or tartare—smoked bison, vegetables, traditional—then the bone-in Vancouver cut, seared and confident, or beef Wellington if you want theater with your protein.

A celeriac akimono glazed in yuzu or tuna with fermented rosehip and sudachi arrives as the culmination of that philosophy, accomplished and inventive in equal measure.

  80. Rank 80. Chupito

    Mexican

    Chupito feels like a back-alley discovery you'd text friends about, tucked into a covered outdoor spot on Yukon Street where the elevated Mexican cooking—tender sautéed octopus with capers and olives, charred lemon and jalapeño—tastes both refined and unpretentious. The cocktails are equally thoughtful, especially the Xochimilco, a temperature-shifting clarified milk punch spiked with mezcal and topped with hot horchata foam.

  81. Rank 81. Bacchus

    European-inspired New American

    Nestled in the Wedgewood Hotel's hushed lobby, Bacchus wraps you in marble and candlelight while chef Stefan Hartmann serves European cooking with local spine—foie gras terrine with roasted plum, prawns in lobster bisque. The wine list ranges globally; the martinis are formidable.

  82. Rank 82. Savio Volpe

    Contemporary Italian

    Clean, marble-lined rooms that could belong to any Italian city set the stage for cooking that respects regional tradition while keeping one eye on the diner's pleasure. Garlic knots studded with black pepper arrive warm and tender, their piquant marinara worth the extra charge. Lamb ragu with sage and pecorino finds its ideal vessel in creste di gallo.

  83. Rank 83. Anh and Chi

    Vietnamese

    Anh and Chi occupies the bones of their parents' three-decade-old restaurant, now stripped clean with midcentury furniture and a vintage neon sign glowing behind the bar. The kitchen moves through Vietnam's classics—banana blossom salad bright with softshell crab, grilled prawn mousse with herbs—with the ease of people who know the territory intimately.

  84. Rank 84. Sushi Hil

    Sushi

    Natural light spills across blonde wood at Sushi Hil, where Chef Hil Nguy works the counter with unhurried precision, building each piece as if it might break. Sweet prawns arrive whole over crushed ice; aka isaki meets bright citrus; aji from Kagoshima carries ginger and scallion's sharp bite. Seasonal fish and careful technique make a modest argument for what sushi can be.

  87. Rank 87. Song

    Thai

    On East Broadway, Song channels Thai cooking through an idiosyncratic lens: lemongrass wings arrive deep-fried and fragrant, pad Thai stakes a claim on savory perfection, and northern laab blooms with the push-pull of fish sauce and lime against tender pork. The kitchen works from regional ingredients with evident invention, turning familiar dishes into something you won't find elsewhere.

The service reads your mind before you need anything, which is the kind of polish you'd expect from a fine-dining seafood room that somehow stays unfussy.

The buzzing bar is perfect for a solo meal, while shared plates make it equally welcoming for groups.
