"Bacchus is very special indeed. Cocooned inside the Wedgewood Hotel & Spa, this elegant restaurant is the kind of place where quotidian concerns immediately disappear. Just off the intimate lobby, where stunning flower arrangements, a glittering chandelier and marble reception area exude tasteful luxury, Bacchus transports guests to a more refined era. There's even a grand piano to boot. Of course, it's not all style and no substance; Chef Montgomery Lau turns out classic but memorable dishes. Humble tomato soup is elevated; halibut from Haida Gwaii delivers a clean, sweet flavor complemented by a cool "chopped salad" of shaved apples, anise-sweet roasted fennel, beets and cucumber. Desserts by Kraków-born Chef Chris Janik will surprise and delight." - Michelin Inspector

"Walk through the doors of Bacchus Lounge—enter from its Hornby Street side, or through the lobby of the Wedgewood Hotel—and you'll find yourself in a room dominated by dark wood, velvet banquets, and high-backed club chairs, all a nod to a men’s-club aesthetic. On one end of the room, there’s a large fireplace; at the other, a lavish, well-stocked bar. From after work on, this classic hotel lounge, arguably the best in Vancouver, is always packed." - Guy Saddy

We had the best waiter! He was so friendly and had the best stories. Just made the whole experience pleasant. We came for drinks and snacks. The holiday cocktails were nicely made and tasty. We shared some appetizers which were perfect for sharing and tasty. Meatballs and chicken thighs. Then had a dessert sampler with chocolate and cookies. All were fabulous!

I recently visited this restaurant for the first time, and I was initially very excited. The decor and interior looked stunning from the outside, and I had high hopes for the dining experience. Unfortunately, I left feeling quite disappointed. The food was decent but not exceptional. I particularly enjoyed the oysters as a starter—they were creamy and had a rich flavor. However, the main course, which featured lamb, was somewhat dry and lacked depth of flavor. For dessert, the sticky toffee pudding had a strong and distinctive flavor that I can see others appreciating, but it just wasn’t to my taste. What truly let me down was the service. The server lacked warmth and didn’t even smile, which made me feel unwelcome and disrespected. At the end of the meal, a lady spoke to me, but I’m unsure if she was the manager or the coat attendant. Either way, the interaction felt insincere, as if her words were just for show rather than genuine concern.

Great Service and Food! Bacchus Restaurant & Bar in Vancouver is a true culinary delight! My partner and I enjoyed a memorable dinner for two in this beautiful establishment. The ambiance is simply stunning, with dim lighting that exudes warmth and an old-school charm enhanced by white linen tablecloths. It's the perfect setting for a special evening. The service was impeccable from start to finish. The staff was polished, friendly, and incredibly well-versed in the menu, ensuring we were well taken care of throughout our meal. They constantly replenished our fresh bread and water, and the dishes were promptly cleared after each course, allowing us to fully enjoy every moment. Now, onto the food! We indulged in the rack of lamb, which was cooked to perfection, and the lobster tartare, a delightful treat bursting with flavor. The herb-crusted fish was another standout, showcasing the kitchen's expertise. Each dish was beautifully presented and incredibly delicious. While Bacchus is on the pricier side, the quality of the food and the overall dining experience make it worth every penny. If you're looking for a fancy night out with exquisite cuisine in a charming atmosphere, Bacchus is the place to be. We can’t wait to return!

I visited this restaurant during the dine out festival. The menu was very good. I loved that they have a convenient vegetarian option on the menu. The wine was exquisite and the atmosphere was very pleasant. I recommend it.

Menu is somewhat limited but the dishes are well prepared and delicious. The wine pairing of local BC wines is very interesting, I certainly didn't know about BC wines until I tried theirs. I'd only quibble a bit about their oyster, not of the best quality I'd say, could be just a bad day.

Lovely ambiance and excellent service. The food overall meets the high standards you'd expect from a restaurant of this caliber. The duck liver parfait was really good and mashed potato was so velvety. One slight disappointment was with the burger's beef patty—it was a bit dry.

This is a restaurant that makes you want to come back again and again. Not only is the food delicious, but the ambiance is also elegantly vintage. Celebrating a birthday here is truly memorable, as the staff provides exceptional emotional value through their service.
