Review White Spot Metrotown - Burnaby

Chloe Rachel
Good place for a hearty meal! A dinner will likely cost over $20 per person (just for the main), but the portion size is fair. I had the Avocado Impossible Burger, with the vegan/GF option and upgraded to sweet potato fries. With the $3 upgrade, you only get one serving of the sweet potato fries (not endless like one would with the regular Kennebec fries). I wish there was more avocado in the burger, but the kitchen was able to accommodate sautéed over picked onions at no cost. Service was friendly and attentive! Hoping White Spot adds more to their menu to accommodate dietary restrictions (vegan, GF, etc.) in the future.

CANADA DAY 2022! place is getting old but they are still trying their best to keep up. there are a bit more options in the menu. they have unlimited fries for burgers, but it's not as good as Redrobins but for sure better than McDonald's. got the cheesesteak hash. it's actually good! and filling! it will probably be my go to on the menu if ever i come back here to WS. server was really really nice. im pregnant and asked if everything was cooked and all those things. she went 1 step further and went back to the kitchen to make sure everything was pregnant friendly for me. points for that! they just dont have enough vegetarian options so it's hard to eat with my husband with me. you can swap the patty which is ok, but you will pay the same amount just to take out the meat in the other meals. washrooms were actually kept good and clean. yes outdated cz flush is by hand. still good enough cz water is sensor.

White spot is our favourite chain restaurant, homey, and not too flashy. Service was great, my wife loved her breakfast, mission accomplished. Well done

4 orders of our fries were old rotten and moldy! Looked like they had been rotting and they chose to fry em up and sell to customers?? Ruined our dinner and had to throw it all out, fast food places don't even serve their customers old moldy fries! Very disappointed 😞

Nice family restaurant with a very good server. The coffee and hot water was regularly topped up. There were 4 of us and my mom and I split a clubhouse sandwich and didn't get the stink eye. Food is good, not Amazing hence the 4 star. Parking in front of the restaurant is a bonus. Good place to eat, talk, catch up with family.

Sat here for a good half hour looking at this disgusting mess. Lots of staff everyone looking, no one cleaning. And now the party being seated is pointing out the garbage at their booth. Most disgusting White Spot I have ever been in.

The experience at this white spot was excellent the service a 10 the three different meals that the three of us had was all 10 out of 10. Thank you to our waitress she gave us excellent customer service the overall experience at this white spot over the top. My family will be returning to this location In the near future. Thank you White Spot. 😎👍

Was great actually. I wanted breakfast but it was lunchtime and we had time before a doctor's appointment so we actually first went to Denny's up the road which had a 15 mins wait. So we didn't wanna wait since we didn't have much time for that. Went to White Spot and got right in and the waitress was very helpful. I was very disappointed there weren't any pancakes but got a waffle and it was actually very nice. The waitress helped us order a meal without meat. The atmosphere was very pleasant and the decor was very nice and calm. One thing I noticed was it smelled like they recently had had a flood or something. I went to the washroom and the same dank smell was so much stronger in there. Not sure if something had recently happened but if nothing did happen and it always smells like that, I'd say it's a problem. Not the kind of thing you wanna smell when eating.

Ordered the beef dip fully loaded, and garden salad with vinaigrette dressing this entire order is so delicious. <br/>The server is very attentive to her customers.

The service here is fairly decent. I ordered the White Spot burger and it was delicious. The milkshakes are very good. All in all a fairly decent dining experience.

The cheesesteak hash came in a hot skillet with smashbrown potatoes cheese, beef, spinach, red peppers topped with two poached eggs and hollandaise.

I actually really like White Spot's burgers. The bun is always fresh and the burger is always juicy. The triple O's sauce is delicious and I really like the fries as well.

We had brunch with a friend last saturday at the Metrotown location and the experience was overall amazing. Since the moment we came in the service was perfect both the hostess and the server were friendly and efficient. We were seated immediately upon arriving in a comfortable booth in a quiet area. The server came up to take our orders as soon as we were ready, and the orders were quickly delivered to our table, she also came up to check on us and refill our drinks several times through the meal.<br/><br/> The food was delicious. We ordered from the brunch menu that has quite a few interesting options that can be enjoyed until 3:00 pm on Saturdays. We got our plates quite fast considering we were in the middle of the lunch rush. The chicken and waffles I had were perfect, crispy and full of flavour. <br/><br/>All things considered, White spot provides good value for the price they charge and the menu makes it the perfect place to enjoy with family or friends.

It was a Saturday and the weather was a combination of sun and cold. A friend and I decided to take advantage of the day and we decided to go to The White Spot restaurant. It was the first time that I knew a White Spot, we went to the one that is close to Metrotown with a close friend, everything was new and and with full of expectations for me, it wasn’t what I expected, it was so much better. To start, the host gave us a friendly welcome, then she took us to our table, a comfortable and clean table that you can enjoy eating your meal. The service was the center of attention, kindness and satisfactory customer service by our server, the important concept was to make us feel pleased. The table was clean and the environment was delightful. The server filled our cups of water immediately after we sat in; also, the server gave us the enough time to see the menus and think what we were going to eat, well everything seemed provocative and appetizing. The menu was really exquisite, explaining every detail of the content of the food, it was three menus about every specialty that the restaurant offers. I decided to eat the ribs with fries (also the restaurant offers that plate with mashed potatoes), the portion was enough and delicious, everything were cooked and I could taste the juice of the ribs. The plates were clean and the food were in our table fast, we didn't have to wait so much time. The server was concern and asked if everything were fine or if we need something else. We didn't have to get up of our place to pay the bill, the bill was in our table fast and in the right way. The part that I found amazing was that always the server was with a smile and was responsible for clean run away the other tables when some customers left. I really want to come back to the restaurant, the experience was really satisfactory. I can say that everything was Bon Appetite¡¡¡

What’s your idea of comfort food? I’m sure macaroni and cheese is near the top of the list for many people… like me for instance.<br/><br/>White Spot had recently brought in a Comfort Foods menu offering with a macaroni and cheese burger near the top of the list. The 6oz patty had a nice char on the burger and was pleasantly accompanied by sautéed onions, bacon, cheese, and Sriracha ketchup & mayo.<br/><br/>I didn’t think that the mac and cheese itself was as creamy or cheesy as the one we had at The Cheesecake Factory in Waikiki and I didn’t even taste the Sriracha ketchup, but the burger itself was pretty good.

So disappointed. I have been ordering take-out from this White Spot for years and I have never been this disappointed. I ordered the two piece chicken pickns and this is what I received. (This was already taken at a flattering angle..compare the size of the gravy to the chicken to see how small the pieces were). The chicken was fried badly, small and overcooked. What astounds me is the price.. about 15$ for these two pieces of chicken and mashed potatoes! I honestly could have had better at Church's chicken for under 5$. I have ordered this before and it was much, much better. Also, I added gravy for a dollar extra and the container was barely half full. I feel ripped off and makes me rethink ordering from here again.

Good was taking a while but manager Robin came and explained the problem<br/>And comped our entire meal. Above and beyond in my books. We come here often and will return. Food was good

Variety. White Spot is a clean place with a varied menu that works well for a large mixed crowd but doesn't have any dishes the truly shine. I find their burgers and salads are way over-sauced. The yam fries are really good. <br/><br/>There is one male server that is obnoxious, but in general the staff are friendly.<br/>Washrooms are clean, and the decor is cozy.

Way too many hosts and a seem quite bossy manager (?). Not a very welcoming hospitality environment...

Friendly, but.... Our experiences at the New Westminster White Spot have been good, but we work near the South Burnaby restaurant and our experience here two years ago was also good. Lately, though, I've heard mixed reviews of this location and discovered why.<br/><br/>The central problem was a special order due to allergies. The order was a Monty Mushroom Burger, wrapped in lettuce instead of a bun, with no Triple O sauce, and the tomato on the side. Unusual, yet, but other locations have done this successfully.<br/><br/>The order arrived fairly quickly; it was after 8:30pm. The mushrooms were sparse, the tomato on the side was not there, and the lettuce was completely soggy. The first two things could be dealt with, the third made it inedible. <br/><br/>Attempt number 2 was much improved. The wrap was much more substantial and not soggy. Unfortunately there was one crucial mistake -- the triple o sauce was not omitted. To avoid an allergic reaction, we had to send this one back also. I felt really sorry for the server; these mistakes are easy to make.<br/><br/>Attempt number 3 had the instructions right but the wrap was soggy again. The burger was also broken, giving the impression that the cook had simply tried to drain the triple o sauce and sent back the same order. The server offered to take the order off the bill.<br/><br/>Oh well, at least the veggie burger was tasty and the Top-40 music selection they had was fairly good.<br/><br/>To their credit, the manager did come out and ask if there was anything<br/>else they could do and they gave us a complimentary coffee. One thing about White Spot is that if a situation comes up, they'll do their best to make the experience better. Mistakes happen, and I certainly can't fault the waitress who was doing her best. <br/><br/>The more chronic issue was the portion sizes for the sides. They were smaller than those on our previous visit for both our dishes. <br/><br/>This is something you can sometimes get away with if your restaurant is known for refined dishes or exotic ingredients. People going to White Spot, however, are going there at least partly to be fed adequately. White Spot has too good a reputation for service for the odd location to be nickelling and diming customers.

Dine-in= good, take-out=bad.. I appreciate the re-vamped menu, especially the veggie burger. Dine-in experience and food quality is far better than take-out. I do not recommend ordering take-out from this location. The whole 'spot-check' procedure is an attempt to ensure some quality control, but often falls flat.

Can be good but. They are not consistent. Some days the burgers are great. Others they are not good at all.

....... interesting that the Smashbrowns is a real potato pounded flat. Good actually. The soft bacon wasn't really soft. Not crispy, but not soft. Pancakes good too.<br/><br/>

White Spot, known for their Legen… (wait for it) dary! burgers is highlighting special “Burger Guest Stars”.  Gourmet burgers (among macarons, crayfish, izakayas, and donuts) are among some of the trendy food items that’s been making the rounds around the fickle Vancouver food scene over the past year or so.

After a failed attempt to visit Chill for some alcoholic bubble tea (because they are closed for renovations) we had no back up plan. So we looked across the street and saw White Spot. I didn't really want to go beca

Kevin and Steph got the Hearty Breakfast. I’m about 80% sure about this, so if I’m wrong, sorry! 2 eggs, 2 bacon strips, 2 sausages, 2 french toast slices, and hashbrown. $9.99 I think. I couldn’t have my burger, so I made up for it by getting something t

Shrimp sandwiches are great. This one cut the roof of my mouth and made all my meals for the next two days sting. I kinda wish they cut the crust off like the HK restaurants. Sorry for the weak post, I was tired today. White Spot Various Locations Posted
