I recently had a customer dinner at Hart House and was very impressed with both the service and quality of food as were my guests. Prices were fare and represented the value of the meal. The location is just a quick turn off Hwy 1 but beware of the terrible traffic of Vancouver and construction in the area, so allow... More

Second time trying this restaurant, my first time I was not 100% satisfied, so though maybe they had an off day. I decided to try it again and received top notch service, on the second go. I mentioned that I had issues the first time I was there and the manager came out and treated us like royalty. The food... More

We went for dinner with my partner. First, the location is superb, in a heritage building, by Dear Lake. We had the six-course menu at $80 per person. Everything was perfect! The service was very attentive, without being intrusive, very traditionnal like in France. The food... delicious! For those who think that portions are too small, do not forget this... More

We were a party of 4 older folks and had purchased their "6 course Pacific Northwest Dinner for $155.00 which had a regular price of $320.00 from Groupon. We had been to Hart House before so we expected a great meal. On arriving we found out that it was a "tasting menu". The service was great as usual but we... More

This was my first trip to the Hart House although I have lived in the Vancouver Lower Mainland for years. We all had the fixed menu which had 8 courses and were very pleasantly surprised by the matching of the foods with sauces and accompaniments. The service staff was attentive and quite able to talk about the foods and wines... More

The Hart House never ceases to amaze and also be so predictable. The service is superb as all of the staff treat you like royalty and if you are a returning client they will most certainly remember your name. They have a lot of great selections of dining tables with various views of the lake or the forest or well... More

Used Groupon for my spouse's b'day dinner as the set 6 course dinner menu appealed to both of us. We had eaten here before on several occasions and had come away satisfied each time though not wowed. This visit would remain in our memory for a long time. It started with a lovely sunny evening and a table in the... More
