A place that is timeless to me, everytime I come here it brings me back to another time and yet it creates a new memory for me. Your very close to a 5, and I would have to say that you are 4.5. From when I was young and my father brought me here, this place was known to have good food, and a wicked view. Now many people know about this place, the inside may look the same as before, but sometimes things should be kept as they are. Just off Highway 1, and through some small roads I always get excited coming here for the food.
The first time I was here, which was way back when (the place has been around for 35 years!) I had rabbit, and even though the last few times I have been here, I did not see this on the menu, I always remember my first time. Lot was filled with the prestigious cars like the Porche's, Ferrari's, etc... gone are those years but the restaurant remains.
Not too long ago I ordered the sable fish here, and it was absolutely amazing. Tender, moist, full of flavour, and fresh. Another time I was here I ordered alder-grilled spring salmon. I guess tastebuds do change when we grow up and I enjoyed my sable fish order way more than the salmon I had recently here, but it was still done well. The service has always been top-notch here and it has that casual feel in here. No need to dress up for a wine and dine, but knowing your getting great food is a plus. 
The portions here are a fair size, nothing overly big, and neither on the small side either. The wood finish gives this place a very warm feel, something very British Columbia about it, from the totem polls to the hanging wooden canoe to where this restaurant is located. Surrounded are trees and greenery overlooking downtown Vancouver. If you have never been here, come to eat, even come to have a drink, but do come on a clear day or night, or your not seeing anything. The illumination of the bright downtown core, combined with the lights of the Lions Gate Bridge are quite a sight.
I can't really say anything about anything non-seafood here, I mean the name of the restaurant is 'Salmon House' not Angus's Ranch, so I come here for the seafood, but looking at what other people have ordered, the meat looks attractive too, as you can see them char'ing the meat up on the side. I still remember bringing my date here, which would now be my partner now, and just another great memory from this restaurant.
If you get a chance, on a good night, probably Friday in the lounge, there is live music, and sometimes accompanying that is singing, adds to the atmosphere of the place, still one of my favorites.
