Fodor's "If the weather's fine, head for this seafood stand on the seawall overlooking the docks beside Granville Island." Full review
Insight Guides "Outdoor cafe serving fresh fish and shellfish. Don't be put off by the line-up, people come back for a reason."
Travel + Leisure "This unassuming seafood joint on False Creek Fisherman’s Wharf ) doesn’t look like much from the outside- which is just fine for locals, who'd rather keep it for themselves." Full review
BlackBook "Crisp, modern, and breezy space with regatta-worthy décor, much of it (like the whimsical nori lamps and chandelure) built by Chef Gord Martin’s energetic sous-chefs."
Gayot "Although the line-ups can be significant at this popular seafood shack on False Creek's Fishermen's Wharf, it's worth the wait." Full review

Then tuck into some of Vancouverâs best Granville Island beer-battered fish ânâ chips (choose cod, halibut or salmon), oyster poâ boys, a char-grilled rare albacore tuna sandwich with sweet chili ponzu glaze, tomato âsnake biteâ salsa and wasabi mayo, or grilled salmon âtacones," all served with zesty Pacific Rim coleslaw.
Time Out "Tucked away on the Seawall between Granville Island and Vanier Park, this little shack serves up the best fish and chips in town." Full review

"The top- notch seafood is enhanced by a spectacular setting: the stand fronts bobbing boats and a skyline view of the city."

Concierge "Located in a scuzzy back alley in Gastown, Salt Tasting Room is an unlikely destination on Vancouver's culinary map. But this wine bar is a popular spot with local foodies, particularly chefs and kitchen crews."
Frommer's "Salt is unique and a wonderful place to get a good, fairly inexpensive meal." Full review
Travel + Leisure "This unusual eatery off historic Blood Alley is trendy even for Gastown, with a bare-bones constellation of menu items changed daily and displayed on a giant chalkboard." Full review
BlackBook "Keeping it elegantly simple, this kitchen-free concept does combinations of artisanal cheeses, superb cured meats and luscious condiments like mustards, chutneys and rosemary-marinated olives."

Choose three meats or three cheeses and three condiments, plus three wines from the extensive wine list or leave the pairings to Saltâs capable wine-aware staff.

"You can choose your own dining adventure at this charcuterie hideout where patrons pick three items from a rotating selection of meat, cheese and “condiments” – such as almonds or cornichons."

We recommend taking the path of least resistance and letting your server choose the cheeses, meats, and condiments to pair with your wine flight.
