Best Restaurants for Quiet Conversation in West Vancouver

The food and service was amazing! The only issue I had was that it was so loud that it was difficult to hear the server when we were speaking to each other. Keep in mind it was at 6pm on a Friday though, so I think more noise is to be expected at that time in a busy restaurant.

The Botanist was recommended to us by our nephew and since we were going to Vancouver we made reservations at the last minute. Brunch was the only meal available during our stay and we have zero regrets! The service was attentive, but not intrusive (shout out to Jess, who was friendly, professional and helpful - always able to answer our questions about ingredients and preparation style!). We opted for the full 3 courses and each was more impressive than the last. The aesthetics of each dish, the quality of the ingredients and the flavor profiles were absolutely delightful! Being able to enjoy the courses with a mimosa and a cocktail was a pleasant surprise, as well. And the drinks? Truly inspired! And then live DJ was a fun addition. We left feeling giddy, and it wasn't just the sparkling wine talking.... we felt welcomed, cared for and well-fed. Our experience at The Botanist was the perfect exclamation point on an already fabulous visit to Vancouver. We hope to be back again the next time we journey north ...

The calamari was excellent, the other food was decent, I would recommend getting cocktails elsewhere. The dining room itself is pretty tired and needs a major freshening.

Always my favourite place to celebrate and meet up with good friends! An elegant setting, fabulous food, wonderful staff and service…..

Lots of selections and overall good experience. Will definitely go again.
