Dockside Restaurant

I always have a great time at Dockside. Our family of three had some items from the HH menu and a dine out set. We had the salmon main, which was intricately prepared and would have taken me over 3 hours to make myself. The salmon was moist inside and seared with a perfect crust that stayed crunchy even when slathered with a pesto sauce. It was accompanied by a thick wedge of butter braised cabbage, parsnip puree, parsnip chips, miso butter and an apple slaw. So many components and each one perfect! The gluten free mushroom ‘calamari’ came with a refreshing yogurt tzatziki with a delightful, fresh cucumber aroma. Every dish had something delightful about it! The pizzas had a chewy, crispy crust that tasted from scratch. They certainly don’t serve frozen pizzas at Dockside! The Caesar salad dressing also tasted from scratch and featured a piquant, raw garlic tang that I am craving to taste again. They have the most amazing salads! Even a basic salad features fresh ingredients, thoughtfully composed. The chocolate mousse dessert was so rich and creamy, I was deep in chocolate bliss. I feel like the chef was the A+ student at culinary school who always gave 150% 🤣. And if the food was not wonderful enough, the gorgeous Vancouver water view lifts my spirits no matter the weather, especially at dusk. The rare restaurant with both good food and great views! Reasonably priced. Highly recommended!

This was an absolutely wonderful experience. The restaurant is quite beautiful especially the patio with an amazing view! They actually have quite a good selection of food on their menu which is great! They had a decent amount of dairy free, gluten free and vegan items. The great thing was that they actually noted on their menu which items were GF, DF, vegan or vegetarian. A lot of restaurants get noticed don’t often note DF free items so it was nice to see this restaurant did do that. Our server was also great - wonderful service. The only thing(s) I would note is that it is a little pricy and it’s also not the easiest to get to via transit (if you’re transitting) but I would say it is worth trying out.
