Absolutely delicious, unforgettable experience. They give u a warm welcome and give u nice, cozy seats. They start you off with some warm delicious bread and give you time to look at the wide assortment on their menu. The food is high quality, and tastes fresh. I recommend their signature West burgers. Meat is tender, juicy and delicious. Brioche bun crispy on the outside, soft on the inside and served with a small stack of fries, a perfect experience.

West was more or less the first fine dining restaurant I went to more than 10 years ago. It was a fond memory, so I had high expectations on my much overdue second visit. The restaurant was much busier (and noisier) than I expected on a Friday evening. It seems the vibe was more modern rather than traditional fine dining. Bread was excellent, we gobbled that down. Oysters were fine as well. The mains, however, were a bit disappointing. I thought my lamb duo was plated a bit strangely with carrots sticking out of the plate, and there were only 4 small pieces of lamb. My partner's sablefish on rice was a poor imitation of Chinese cooking (although the fish was tender). The souffle dessert was so tiny, like the size of a two bite brownie. Overall I left feeling the meal was rather average west coast cuisine, and I could have the same quality elsewhere for a lower price.

Had a great experience at West. Went their for my 21st birthday and it's definitely a place to try. The menu is simple and sophisticated at the same time, and the food there was amazing. We were fortunate enough to be able to be seated at one of their chefs table and it made the whole experience even better.

West is a prime venue in Vancouver to thoroughly experience food via multiple inputs - taste, texture, visual artistry, verbal description, etc...We have dined here several times over the past several years to appreciate the complexity and nuances of food and its associated atmosphere. Having been to many fine-dining establishments in Vancouver over the years, West is one of the best for people who really appreciate food and its potential depth (flavour, texture, scent, etc.) and in relation to other components in the dishes. In addition to being on the higher end of places to go, this is not a place to go to when you have a cold/aren’t interested in an experience/looking to eat and fill up. Rather, it’s a place to go to truly experience food and savour appropriately-sized portions for this experience (not huge while not tiny). Added little touches to celebrate events are appreciated.

Very good food, but it is definitely one of those restaurants that you'd see comedy sketches about: fine dining with tiny portions. Honestly, I think they play that game a bit on the skimpy side... My appetizer of smoked salmon was two cubes less than 1cm in dimension. As tasty as it was, it feels like they are playing the game a bit. I'd go more often if it didn't feel like they were seeing how far they could push reputation. No doubt the quality is there, but the premium is harder to swallow than the food ;)
