We dined at Joey's on our 3rd evening in Vancouver. So far it is our favorite! The vibe was lively and the service attentive. But the food! There was such good variety for my husband and my varied tastes. I had the steak and sushi along with the house salad. I have never tasted such delicious and unusual sushi before! The aburi sushi was new to me and very much enjoyed. I ate every bite. My husband had the chicken parmesan. It came artistically presented with the noodles spun atop the chicken. The chicken was moist and delicious and balanced well with the imaginative house salad. The prices were reasonable for downtown Vancouver.

We really enjoyed this spot. Great drink selection. Very friendly and welcoming staff. We really enjoyed the oyster mushroom calamari. I had the seasonal shepherd's pie which actually blew my mind how good it was. We would definitely eat here again.
