    Best Lunch in town! Convenient downtown location located in the Georgia hotel. Beautifully appointed dining room comfortable seating, swanky decor, great place to people watch. The food is over the top, I had the foie gras appetizer, followed by the seafood tower. It was epic! The in-house Somalia Antoine is happy to guide you through the wine list. The service is friendly, knowledgeable, professional, They definitely make you feel welcome and important comma even if you're not. I will definitely go back, so many items on the menu to work through. Thank you Hawksworth!

    Our visit to Nightingale was absolutely unforgettable. From the moment we walked in, the service and ambiance set the tone for an exceptional dining experience. The food was beyond incredible—each dish was thoughtfully prepared and bursting with flavor. A special shoutout to our server, Colwyn, who truly made the evening special. He was not only attentive and caring but also incredibly thoughtful with his recommendations. His warm and welcoming demeanor made our first meal in Vancouver a highlight of our trip. We couldn’t have asked for a better start to our time here. Thank you, Colwyn, and the entire team at Nightingale for such a memorable experience. We’ll be back! Let me know if you’d like any tweaks!

    The restaurant had a casual setting. We went there for the Christmas Eve and Christmas Day dinner buffets. The buffet had lots of options to fit everybody’s tastes. The food was excellent and the service was as well. Prices were very reasonable.

    I can’t tell you much I appreciate that you have both. Kids menu and a plant based section on your menu! It’s so nice to find a modern, yet casual, restaurant that can accommodate the needs of my whole family. I also really appreciate that you have tofu for your plant based diners, because a lot of places that have vegan options only serve you vegetables, and vegans want/need/deserve protein, too!! So happy with our experience at tap & barrel!!
