    Really enjoyed a nice dinner at the Arbutus room after walking around Buchart Gardens. Burrata appie was outstanding, the Calabrian chilli in there was the perfect touch! For my main I had the scallops and risotto, it was fantastic, such a great array of mushrooms in the risotto, it was seasoned perfectly! So nice to have some dishes with flavour finally!! (I find most restaurants don’t season enough). The ambiance was perfect with the live jazz music. Love the room, the light fixtures are beautiful, the service was fantastic. My water glass was always full, cutlery switched out between courses. Just such a wonderful experience, we enjoyed every bit of it and we will be back for more for sure! We don’t venture out to Brentwood Bay often, but I will make more of an effort to get out there because this restaurant was fantastic!

    What an amazing experience and n Christmas Eve as well. Food was outstanding as well as the service. We got to then look around the gardens after the food. It certainly made things feel very Christmassy.

    We went to Glo for an early Christmas Eve dinner and it was lovely. The ambiance in the restaurant for the season was beautiful. Our waiter was knowledgeable and very personable. There were three of us, all ordering a different entree and all three were very good and beautifully presented. We all ordered dessert and they too were delicious. I personally ordered the bread pudding and it was the best I have ever tasted - I am still talking about that bread pudding! All in all it was exactly the experience we had hoped to have for Christmas Eve.
