WestOak Vancouver Reviews
From the exterior, it looked like an upscale Italian
From the exterior, it looked like an upscale Italian restaurant, great for a nice sit down dinner to catch up with friends. We got a table inside, and the music was extremely loud (think club vibes). The music was amazing, but for the wrong setting. Our group ended up texting one another as we couldn't hear ourselves. As for food I got some pasta and truffle fries. The pasta was incredibly bland, but the fries were delicious! Our server was also lovely - friendly and attentive.
Kitchen needs to do better with quality control of size proportion of same meal
First time eating here for brunch on a Sunday on the patio. Our male server was very good and very efficient. I had the chicken and waffles ....chicken was very crispy and not dry but the waffle was disappointing....batter is too dense thus the waffle was not fluffy at all. The blueberry whip cream was delicious and so was the compote. One thing to note...the quality control needs improvement from the kitchen...one of the chicken waffle meal had 2 huge pieces of chicken while the 2nd meal had one small piece along with 1 medium sized piece. Kitchen should really ensure size proportion to be fairly comparable. Each of the meal is $21. Ambiance on the patio was lovely as it was a sunny day so with the roof, it was not hot at all. Will I return to West Oak in Yaletown for brunch? Only if I were going downtown.
Such a negative slash bizarre experience here.
Late afternoon on 6/28/25 we stumbled upon this restaurant and decided to have a late lunch. The hostess said I'll be right back to help you so we waited out front for her, meanwhile a large party walked past us and inside. As we waited and waited we finally saw her seating them on the patio so we went inside too. We told her we thought maybe we should come in since she never came back for us and she said, "Those people walked in, what was I supposed to do, tell them I'll be right back I have to go outside to help someone else?" I was like, "...probably..." and she just went, "it's no worries," like I was apologizing for something rather than waiting for her apology. So odd. Then we had a mixed quality meal, a decent appetizer and then a less than decent salad. The veggies in the app were floppy and old. The lettuce was old and yellow. Our server may have overhead our commentary because he brought us a cheesecake that we didn't order and without any explanation. It was odd all around. And music so loud it was like a club in full daylight. We couldn't get out of there fast enough.
Try the cookies!
amazing food. Great service. Specialty cocktails. You need to try the cookies... Warm from the oven. Cream on the side.. Just sayin
Excellent restaurant in Vancouver in the Yaletown area.
Their appetizers are killer. I had their Shrimp dish and their Calamari, along with a glass of Malbec, and both were to die for. It's too bad I wasn't hungrier because they have many more interesting things on the menu I would have tried, All in all a pleasant experience when visiting Vancouver and highly recommended.
Nice place with really wonderful patio.
There's some swanky glass that allows either open window style air flow and can close off to create a solarium sort of vibe for inclement weather days. Their food was really good, truffle fries are quite rich and flavourful, same with the beef carpaccio. I don't think the menu mentions it comes with these sliced toasted baguettes which were topped with olive oil and balsamic glaze. Service was slightly disappointing as our service was quite flat. Two instances, both not the fault of our server, but the bar had a friend a drink in a dirty glass, she ordered a clear drink but it was brown tinged, and had a weird flavour. Multiple people at the table tried it before we told the server that it seemed off. It was slightly off putting, but our server went back and got a new one for my friend. Second thing, they said they updated their POS so for some reason the person who had the most alcoholic drinks had been put in with a really high autogratuity, but it was strange because everyone else at the party had the regular autograt of 20% I believe and the only person who was drunk ended up getting 30% or something of the sort. Our server again, amazing and took care of it working with the manager who fixed it and came to apologize but the optics of that only happening to the one drunk person if the party, well you know. Kinda left an unsatisfactory taste in everyone's mouths regarding the service. Food was still great and so was our server, and the manager who came to personally apologize about the issue.
I like this restaurant on thanksgiving especially.
They have a nice turkey dinner with amazing moist but fluffy stuffing. I tasted their steak and it was good but unfortunately I've been spoiled by having Texas and Calgary steaks which can't be beat. This is my favourite street in all of Vancouver, a stroll through mainland makes you feel like you're walking in a movie set and a date night at many of the restaurants transforms you into the star of the production. They have fast and super friendly service. The prices are decent and it's definitely the place to go for date night.
went for brunch and the restaurant was probably 30% full.
Nice ambience, service was attentive yet the food was just OK eggs Benedict had a nice presentation, but was a little bit cold and the whole experience would've been better if the music wasn't blasting at 11:45 in the morning. I put a request in with the staff, but I guess it didn't mean much to them I doubt we will be back, sorry
Excellent Seafood in Yaletown
My wife and I enjoyed spectacularly fresh seafood perfectly cooked and seasoned all served by excellent staff. Compared to other downtown meals, we found the price to be reasonable. The atmosphere was dark with loud music which is not a perfect fit for my wife and I, but the food and service made up for it.
Went to this restaurant on a Saturday night with
Went to this restaurant on a Saturday night with reservations. The hostess seated us quickly and water was served within 4 minutes and our waiter came by not a minute later and took our order. The four of us ordered 2 lamb shanks and the two chicken dishes. The lamb shank was delicious and I found the veggies a bit over cooked. There was lots of sauce for the lamb and veggies. I had the tomato soup which was delicious and large. I jut wanted a cup but I got the full bowl. This is a $$$ restaurant. The place was packed to the rafters and it was filled with 20 to 35 year old people. Is is great place to eat but everyone had to use a loud voice to be heard. It appears to be a warehouse style so that's why it was so loud.
Chain kind of vibe
We forgot to book reservations at a few other nearby places and were lucky enough to get a table for two on a Saturday night. My husband ordered the salmon and was very happy with that. I ordered the fettuccine pomodoro and it was basic and bland. The atmosphere is a lively and younger crowd and reminded me of the Cactus Club. It hit the spot for the night but I’m not sure I would stop by again.
Delicious food and great service.
...The Wagyu burger was brilliant, but the Ahi was the real winner! ...And our server Yousef was kind, knowledgeable, professional, and made us feel so welcome. ...We'll definitely be back!
Came here for a friend's birthday and we sat on the patio.
Because it was a winter day, it was great because they ensured to set it up so it was warm enough for people. Service was wonderful... our server was great and she checked on us a few times as well. It's not an overly large restaurant. Some spot in it can be a bit tight on walking space but overall gives a lively vibe. I tried the vegan gyoza and a rose sangria. It is a bit pricey to be quite honest for what I got in my dish ($20 for the gyoza) and it was okay. I found the gyoza to be a bit bland but the sauce itself made it better. The drink was really good though. I really enjoyed that.
Great spot
Very good happy hour with great food. Drinks were great and the servers were super hot! Even better than cactus and joeys etc… My new spot in DT for sure
Very popular spot to eat in yaletown Lots of lady's love to
Very popular spot to eat in yaletown Lots of lady's love to eat here Been around quite a few years
Great setting, very good food
Three of us went for dinner. Sat inside which has a great atmosphere. Dim lighting, exposed brick, huge wooden beams. Service was quick and friendly. Food was surprisingly excellent. Chicken Supreme was one of the best ever. Salmon and risotto excellent, burger huge and tasty.
Great vibe
The restaurant's right in the heart of Yale town. The food's always great, and the staff are really good-looking.
Fabulous meal with authentic service
Enjoyable first meal in Vancouver. Highlight of our tour so far. The charcuterie board was impressive. Really enjoyable scallops and salmon for mains. A shared cheesecake and good value, wine choice. Special call out for Keeley and Andre. A rarity to experience great as well as authentic service.
Rude front door "hostes"
Dear West Oak, I am giving you this non-positive review for the way one of your arrogant and judgemental stuff treated us. It was a girl at a front entrance who intakes and “welcomes” people and she refused to give us her name. Without going to too much details, I can say that she insulted us, labeled and was extremely rude. We love West Oak and we are loyal customers and come their regularly. But we never had such an unpleasant experience. Please, do a better screening and training of your newly hired staff. Someone from the management, whose name is Mason James, knows more details of the situation because we talked to him right away. On a positive note, I can say that thanks going to Mason for being open to our feedback, listening and handling situation professionally. Hope we will not see that girl again and she doesn’t work there anymore. Thanks.
Best Truffle Fries
Really liked the vibe of this restaurant. Our server was friendly. Cocktails were good (really enjoyed the Tiffany Blue). We had the Burger and the Salmon. Both were tasty, and they have the most delicious truffle fries I've ever had. Yummmm. I would return when in Vancouver again!

Let's say Peter has a great morning and decides to take his three friends to WestOak Vancouver at 6 PM the same day.
He checks the restaurant's website and sees that no reservations are available. He then looks at the WestOak Vancouver page on AppointmentTrader, but finds that there are no user postings either.
That's where the community-driven bid process comes in.
Peter can place a bid on AppointmentTrader, which serves as a reward for any community member who chooses to work on securing the reservation. AT then notifies experienced users who may be able to help.
Step-by-Step Process
1.) Setting a Reward (Bid)
* AppointmentTrader uses historical data to recommend a reasonable reward amount for securing a reservation - let's say $100.
* Peter really wants to go, so he increases the bid (or reward) to $200.
* At this stage, the reservation does not exist yet.
2.) A Community User Picks Up the Bid
* FulfilledThread16, an experienced AT user, has a strong track record of successfully securing reservations and low refund requests, they receive a notification about Peter's bid.
* FulfilledThread16 picks up the bid, meaning they will now work on securing the reservation.
* Peter can now talk to FulfilledThread16 for any questions Peter may have as FulfilledThread16 user fills the bid.
3.) Finding the Reservation
* FulfilledThread16 now uses their connections at WestOak Vancouver to secure the table.
* If they successfully get the 6 PM table for four, Peter receives a confirmation that the reservation has been secured.
* If FulfilledThread16 fails to secure the reservation, the bid is returned to the pool so another user can try.
4.) Payment & Protection
* Once the reservation is secured, FulfilledThread16 receives the $200 reward which is credited to FulfilledThread16's AT balance, where users manage their own funds and can withdraw via available payout options such as bank transfer, PayPal, or Zelle.
* Peter can now enjoy the dinner with his friends at WestOak Vancouver!
* As with all transactions on AT, disputes and no-show fees are handled through the platform's community-driven resolution system. Users with a strong track record are incentivized to fulfill bids successfully, and community members can report issues to maintain trust in the marketplace.
