  • Great for scenic views
  • Great for outdoor dining
  • Neighbourhood gem
Located on the waterfront where Granville Island faces the city, guests can enjoy panoramic views across False Creek to the world-famous cityscape of Yaletown and beyond to the mountains of the North Shore.

The open dining room is relaxed yet refined, wrapped in spectacular floor to ceiling windows, while the lounge offers warm intimate surroundings for evening cocktails.

The award-winning seasonal patio (patio closed October to March) catches sunlight from morning to afternoon and is an oasis of calm, disturbed only by the occasional sound of boats making their way along False Creek.

Whether dining inside or outside the views are stunning!

    The restaurant is really nice and food was great too. One of the drinks we had was too sour but the vegetarian pizza was really good and authentic Italian pizza and not the North American style. The steak frites were ok but the cioppino was a better option!

    We had a group of 8 for a family visit and the overall place is amazing and the food and drink selection was all great! I do have 2 complaints however … our server Diah was not attentive enough to our group (and I still tipped 18%, even though she did not even give us the service worth half that) and there is a ton of hotel parking that we could not even park and pay for (there were dozens of open spots and we only needed 2 hours) … not sure if we will be back … sorry

    Great location overlooking False Creek harbor. We had lunch and found the menu somewhat limited especially for someone with celiac. This omnivore found it limited too. We had dinner the night before and thought the menu was much more appealing. Service was excellent and views can’t be beat. Check the menus before you go. Great wine and cocktail list too.

    I had one of the nicest dinners that I've had in the past few months. The setting is truly magical - and sitting out on a warm late summer evening was a bonus. Our food, wine and service were perfect. Alain our Server was efficient, friendly and thoughtful. I'm looking forward to my next meal at Dockside
