   Forgot about us twice and had to find the server both times. They did comp one meal and provided a cheesecake to go, acknowledging they did forget. Overall manager was good but server was dismissive. But Earls is great food. Thank you

   You always know what you’re getting here. Very similar to others in the chain, clearly the same menu. I was surprised how good the oysters were as Earl is not a place. I would ordinarily consider ordering oysters. Servers or nice and efficient. Also quite attentive. As always, I find Earl’s a bit overpriced for the quality and amount of food. In this case, this version of Earls is quite loud as it is a wide open space.  All in all if you enjoy Earl, this is a good one.

   A few hiccups. Scanned the Earls code on Robson sy to buy a $100 gift card with includes a later use $20 card with my Canadian credit card. $100 posted in USD!!!! Eventually a manager was going to reverse a similar amount. Ordered their happy hour steak — asked for the Cajun spice as I’ve had it many times with no extra charges. This time a $4 surcharge for a spice. Hmmm it was a birthday event as noted on the reservation. Nothing was offered until we had to ask. Eventually a micro chocolate muffin tasting item appeared. Wasn’t worth the hassle. Not the best experience today at Earls.

   I'm sorry to hear that we missed the mark on your visit, Corey! Following your feedback, I noticed that the option to select USD or CAD isn't especially clear or user friendly, so I've shared this feedback with our gift cards team to consider adjusting. I'm also disappointed to hear that our team failed to make your birthday celebration memorable. I understand the importance of facilitating the celebration of these notable milestones. I've touched base with my host team to ensure that reservation notes are being passed along so that we can make each experience special! I would love the opportunity to make this right! If you have the time, will you please email me at bryn.horner @ earls.ca? Sincerely, Bryn Horner General Manager

   Attentive and responsive service. Accommodating to our slow pace during a quieter time. Food was delicious. An enjoyable meal and get together with friends.

   Seemed to be very understaffed. The guy running the hostess stand was out of his depth. Didn’t know what he was doing. He ran our pizza to the table. Dropped it off without saying a word. Did not bring any side plates etc. looked like there was only one server for the whole section of the restaurant. He was doing his best but was stretched very thin. More staff did arrive and things got a little better. We had a great time at this location 2 x over the summer. I’m not sure I would return. It was my husband’s birthday as well. Not impressed at all.

   Our server was outstanding. The kitchen was understandably busy, so our appetizer took about 50 minutes to arrive. I was starving because it was 8:00 PM and I had not eaten once that day. When the main course arrived, I was completely famished. But even if sawdust would have tasted good, the steak was awesome. I didn't care how fast or slow the service was because I was out to be with my wife for a date night. I also had not had a steak for a long time. Steak seems to be a luxury meal no matter where one takes it. The price of beef is too high. I like this Earls because it is two blocks from home, the prices are not too astronomical and we only go out on dates during a Harvest Moon.
