Review Laughing Oyster Restaurant - Powell River

The seafood platter was pretty darn delicious. All of the items were seasoned nicely or had a tasty sauce to go on it. I will admit I wasn't totally full after but I do have a big appetite. My mom had the spinach salad which I finished and that was pretty disappointing but overall the view is great and they have some awesome menu choices. For a once in a while splurge place I'd say this is the spot.

Lovely views and lovely owners. We sent there because a taxi driver recommended us and it's completely wellworth. The quality of food is well related with the price that you pay. Thank you to all the workers there, they were so nice with us ❤️

Had a great experience at the Laughing Oyster. I turned up to my reservation *three hours* early as I was camping nearby and needed to get some work done. They were amazing about accommodating me (when they really didn’t have to be). While working I had a couple of drinks - really enjoyed their tropical mule cocktail. When I finally wrapped up emails I sat on their cute patio with friends, enjoying a stunning sunset, really great service, and superb food. Thanks again Laughing Oyster!

I really recommend this wonderful restaurant! Dave was super accommodating of my group of 8 after a miscommunication when booking due to bad cell service. The food was perfect, the view was stunning, and the service was top notch. Good value for money when you consider portion size and the location. A perfect treat after spending 3 tiring (but amazing!!) days on a backcountry kayaking trip around this beautiful area.

Amazingly great food and views! The beer on tap was fresh. And the staff very friendly, polite and accommodating! Reservations highly recommended!

Incredible food and the most breathtaking views from the back patio. A brilliant way to round off a 4 day kayaking trip. We were initially put off by the menu on the website not listing prices as we were worried it would be too fancy and out of our price range, but we decided to go for it anyway and were SO happy we did! Prices are reasonable (and actually much cheaper than what you would pay in a large city for the same high standard of meal), portions were substantial and the staff and owner made us feel at home.

Visited this place on the eve of my sisters bday. It’s not near the main Lund attractions so not a touristy restaurant. We called last moment for a reservation in the evening were luckily squeezed into a dinner slot. As we drove towards the restaurant the location unexpectedly amazed us. It was right next to a gorgeous vista of mountains and water and we were seated probably in the best location ; inside but right opposite the porch view . The setting is also perfect for a romantic meal. We ordered numerous dishes, but my favorite by far were the 7 mushroom soup made with foraged local mushrooms and the Stick Toffee pudding with a caramel sauce and fresh cream. Individually the dresser components did not stand out but together it was a symphony. Dave, the owner, was really sweet to get us the dessert as a cake for my sister and had most of the patrons sing the bday song together. Tanya our wait staff was amazing and great with her recommendations. I will be back to this restaurant whenever I visit Lund again, not just to have the food but to experience the hospitality of the amazing people who run this place.

Recommended by everyone in town, it lives up to the reputation. Excellent food, wine ... and fantastic tiramisu! Beautiful view, pleasant ambience, friendly proprietor and host. Definitely a wonderful way to celebrate a birthday or any occasion.
