    When in Vancouver, a visit to Hawksworth is always in order. I decided to try the seasonal tasting menu. The selection looked impressive on the menu. It exceeded my expectations as I savored each bite. Thoughtful wine pairings complemented each course. Top marks for service and presentation. The sea bass, duck, and sunchoke ice cream were stellar. For the price, such fare is great value. The attentive service only contributed to the experience. I highly recommend Hawksworth.

    We had a great birthday dinner at Wildlight: the restaurant was busy at 7:15, when we came, but we got a nice patio table marked with Birthday card from Wildlight, enjoyed our food (delicious dishes and impressive presentation) and cocktails, and had a really cool Riverside Rock cake for dessert from Wildlight. Our server was amazing - she went above and beyond to make our celebration special. We keep coming back to Wildlight for our special dates - great atmosphere, amazing food, and excellent service ❤️👍
