Kate BillingJuly 8, 2015Get a seat out on the patio and drink in the marina and mountain views. Standard fare delivered with great taste, quality fresh produce and engaging friendly service.
Aigerim NMay 17, 2017Cardero's special (salmon or catch of the day) is out of this world. Fish tacos were ok, Italian meatballs yummy. The view is amazing. Fun atmosphere and great staff.
Richelle MarieJune 26, 2015Great ambiance and nightly live music. One side is a restaurant, the other a bar.. separated by a quasi wall. Great date place, but I'm biased as it's an easy 5 minute walk from my place <:)- Dean NelsonMarch 24, 2019Crab 🦀 sushi rolls amazing! Sit outside on the upper deck, great views of Stanley Park and the marina / yacht club - stay warm by the fire 🔥 pit
- Olivia ZFebruary 27, 2015I have been here a few times for lunch and I absolutely love it. It's casual/fine dinning food but very affordable. Great wine list, oysters, burgers and mussels
Shima HdrJune 23, 2016Alex is a wonderful bartender! I loved the red wines and the cheese platter. The ambience and live music are awesome too!
The food here is always fantastic (especially the seafood). The salmon burger is one of my faves, and the kids love the hargow.
Maggie FreegardMarch 4, 2018Sea food platter to share. Scallops and prawns very good, salmon slightly over cooked for our taste and good lamb chops.
Brian StraussJune 10, 2016You couldn't ask for a better view. Clean and healthy seafood plates. A little expensive for lunch, but you're certainly paying in part for the setting.
Benny DoroMarch 28, 2016Great ambiance. Good drinks and drink prices. Stodgy apps but the bread service is a nice touch when you order any food item even apps.
Try the sable fish with white table clothes and friendly relaxed atmosphere
Marta DevisJuly 9, 2016Super recommended! Salmon burguer amazing! Nice service, nice place and nice views
David AndersonMay 5, 2013Had the mussels and steak sandwich for lunch. It was the best. The Stanley park amber ale was great. The patio is awesome.
Nancy Quincy McDermottApril 19, 2016Nice location on the water. We had ahi tuna salad, oysters and a beet salad that was fabulous.
Harsha H JOctober 1, 2013The best seafood. And impeccably friendly service. Great atmosphere and views to boot! Can't go wrong!
Jelena VemicFebruary 14, 20195* for Laura She was great host, fast and professional. We will be back for sure.
Nabil BazzariSeptember 5, 2013Amazing restaurant. Amazing location directly on coal harbour. Must go there
Eva PoonJune 9, 2011Amazing location! Food quality is pretty good, limited selection though. The bell they ding for every table the seat gets annoying after a while. Oh, they have live music too:)
Beth MayesAugust 4, 2013Amazing views and ambiance. Food is good, but with so many other unique food places, there's nothing that stands out besides the location.
Katie McCannNovember 18, 2011Beautiful view, great food, awesome staff. Sit outside on the heated patio and look out over the marina. So cool.- Nabil BazzariSeptember 8, 2013Must try reataurant. Excellent views on coal harbour. Excellent seafood
Fresh seafood and salmon the steaks are also very good, the view of coal harbour is stunning.
I really like their fries which are served with a nice coarse salt.
