Knowledgeable staff regarding all of the wines. Loved the Blanc de Noir 2018 "champagne". It was definitely worth the price of $85 - just an incredible sparkling wine comparable to Veuve or better.

Coal Harbour

About the restaurant

Simple, fresh, local and handcrafted. Our waterfront Vancouver restaurant, ARC, is the perfect West Coast Setting to enjoy urban artisan food. Made with locally sourced ingredients, some from our very own rooftop herb garden and beehives, our food is rivaled only by our stunning harbour and mountain views.

Chinatown

About the restaurant

Providing Vancouver with very good Chinese-ish food since 2010.

Bao Bei is a unique restaurant in Chinatown that cultivates casual intimate dining experiences by providing small plates meant to be shared amongst a group of friends and family. Influences are taken from Taiwan and Shanghai but we are also inspired by a range of global flavours that form a more modern approach to Chinese cooking. We also love a good stiff cocktail and a nice glass of gamay to go with our food so we’ve taken great care to create distinctive libations and to curate a nice little list of wines for you.

The food at Bao Bei was an interesting asian-adjacent culinary experience. We had the family course dinner for a business group. There were wonderful and diverse flavors though the seasoning was very clearly intended for a western culinary palate, biased toward sweet rather than spicy flavors. Portions were adequate and the cocktails were really inventive and fun. I have to admit I was expecting a more authentic high-end Chinese meal, but what we had was delightful and quite memorable.

Came here for dinner on a a Tuesday night. Ambience and decor were tastefully appointed, with dim lighting and noise dampening on the ceiling so we could actually hear conversations at our table and not others. Ordered meatballs, roasted cabbage, chicken parm, margherita pizza. Meatballs were tender and flavorful. Roasted cabbage was cheesy, crispy, and the addition of hazelnuts and balsamic perfectly balanced. Chicken parm with spaghetti bianco - what more do we need to say? Cheesy, creamy, crispy, meaty, carby, tangy; hitting all the right notes. Margherita pizza could have used a bit more cheese and basil, but the pizza dough was crispy on the bottom and had a pillowy crust with just the right amount of chew. We were celebrating a special occasion and the server gave us some bubbly on the house. We really enjoyed our dinner here - looking forward to coming back!
