About this restaurant

  • Great for fine wines
  • Good for special occasions
  • Charming
Our menu features a diverse range of dishes, revolving around locally sourced produce, that has been carefully crafted to complement our wine selection, creating a perfect pairing experience. Embracing the beauty of seasonal ingredients, we adapt our offerings according to the farmers’ bounties and the fresh catch from local fishermen. Our culinary philosophy centres on clean and bright flavours, and we love being playful with the presentation of each dish. Enjoy our a la carte menu with daily happy hour features, or chef's tasting menu designed by Executive Chef Baker Hsu.

Our wine list, curated by Wine Director Claudia Richard, highlights artisanal producers that believe in sustainable action and honest winemaking practices. We focus greatly on organic, biodynamic, natural, and low-intervention wines. If this sparks your curiosity – great! Come say hello and have a glass in our cozy, candlelit room, nestled in beautiful Mount Pleasant in an incredible, 112-yr-old building.

Why they're an Icon

Executive chef: Baker Hsu

From the OpenTable editors: Housed in one of Mount Pleasant neighbourhood’s oldest buildings, this hip wine bar’s line-up of natural bottles and cheeky wine-based cocktails is as alluring as its setting. The kitchen matches the wine list’s sustainable philosophy, using seasonal, local ingredients to create playful plates like pickled carrots with mascarpone or King salmon with smoked ikura.

    Food and Service were delightful, we had the baker's Tasting Menu, and all the different courses served were well thought and balanced in flavor. It was a wonderful night.

    Bar Susu has a nice ambience and decent service, but the food was disappointing. Most dishes were overly salty and lacked balance in flavor. For the price, the portions felt small, and the taste didn’t justify the cost. While the atmosphere is enjoyable, I wouldn’t return for the food. Might be worth a visit for drinks, but not for a full dining experience.

    We tried their DineOut menu. The appetizers- bread, and beef tartare and hamachi were really delicious! However, the flavours of the entrees were a miss for me. We had the pork shoulder and the fish. The pork shoulder was cooked medium rare, which was not something we were used to- the meat was rather chewy. Personally, I think that cooking it through would have tasted much better. The flavors of the fish did not meld together well- each component of the dish seemed to have its own intense flavors- they didn't seem to complement each other. It felt like it needed a side dish or bedding of mashed potatoes or rice/risotto to complement it. The dessert was a bit underwhelming. The mousse was oddly warm. Appreciated the deep chocolate tones, but it did not standout too much. This is likely a good place to go for appetizers instead of a meal at fine dining price. We were also disappointed at their service. We reserved the booking with standard seating at least a week ahead and confirmed our booking. When we arrived, we were told they were preparing a table for us. However, they then gave us a seat by the door next to the bar- which was available from the start. I had to speak up regarding our booking for standard seating. This fall shorts of fine dining service and further discounted our dining experience. This place definitely will not be my first choice to revisit anytime soon.

    Good food, but not good enough to justify the prices, especially compared to its sister Published. We were sat upstairs, which took away from the experience

    Did dine out Vancouver. $65 per person plus cocktails. Food and drink were both great and service was both friendly and attentive. The space is very welcoming with a familiar feel. Music choice was A+ too. Will be back.
