Lovely dinner tonight to celebrate my dad’s birthday. It’s too bad most people don’t know it’s still Open. Great food especially the chili prawn Spring Rolls and the salmon trio. Always a nice spot for a special occasion

My wife and I arrived at The Salmon House half an hour before our reserved time. They had no problem to accomodate us and gave us a table by the window where we could enjoy the beautiful view of the Lions Gate Bridge and Vancouver. The service was attentive and efficient. The food was exceptional, well balanced and well presented. We also had a great South African chenin blanc, which paired beautifully with the oysters and the fish we had for dinner.

A delicious dinner with an old friend. So nice to be able to talk and hear one another without ghastly muzak. Of course the view remains outstanding.

Friendly welcome, friendly service but very mediocre food, soggy salad with smoked salmen hidden under dressing, very small portion of Sable fish (48$) - way too expensive for what you get and an unsatisfying wine list. Very limited BC options, no BC bubbly by the glass - either big international names for big money and targeted at label drinkers or below average wines, again for too much money. We were lucky to get one of the last decent bottles from the "End of bin" list. Over all Average experience at best.
