MAJOR TOM

Major Tom is elevated yet approachable, excellent and at ease, confident and gracious. The food, the room, and the service capture the sophistication and glamour of mid-century New York penthouse life, and you feel instantly at home.

Always a wonderful experience at Major Tom. Shoutout to Lacy and Steph for top notch service. Food and cocktails were delicious as always. The gnocchi is my favorite!

The setting is beautiful and the food is good; service was spotty (took a long time for our entree to be served).

Lulu Bar
4.7 (2423)
CAN$30 and under
Pacific Rim
Downtown
Lulu Bar is an escape from the ordinary. Its welcoming vibe is reminiscent of hidden gems from your last vacation, only better because it’s right here in your own backyard. With a healthy, Pacific-inspired menu, Lulu’s wood-fired food is light and fresh — but heavy on flavour.
Chef Joseph Sokoloff’s fare is a tribute to the Pacific Ocean and many of the regions that touch it, with influences from Asia to Hawaii, California to British Columbia. Lulu’s fun, light, and refreshing drink menu is equally well-travelled. Its wine, beer, and creative cocktail offerings will make you feel like you’re far from home — and we like that.

Everything we tried as a group was fantastic. Service was great, food was prompt. Can’t wait to try more things in the menu.
