    Fantastic fish tacos. That's all I come here for. Atmosphere and crowd isn't right for me but people definitely enjoy it. Come for the fish tacos.

    Local is a vibrant spot just across the street from Kitsilano beach that has a great energy and good food. This is a trendy place to stop during or after a day at the beach!!

    The sangria is the best I've ever had! The veggie burger is one of the best I've ever had! Service could be better though. We waited almost an hour for our dinner on a busy sunny Thursday!

    The Calimari was yum! It had sweet bits of purple onion also battered and deep fried, arugula, and just a touch of heat. I'd order it again!!

    Awesome fish tacos and burger but the poutine was disappointing. The gravy was bland and the cheese was not gooey. Service was very good. Can't wait to go back to try more stuff!
