The staff were wonderful and very attentive we had the sockeye salmon burger and fries and they were delicious. The server even recommended a local beer and it was great. We watched the pirate ship leave port from the restaurant and everyone had a fun time. Lovely place!
Had lunch today with my bff Kristine! The food is excellent! We had 4 pieces of Tacos and mussels for appetizer! The tuna tacos are great! It melts in our mouth! The sauce of mussels are heavenly!!! The main course: Tuna & shrimp bowl and 2 piece fish & chips... the taste and presentation are perfect and satisfies our hunger!!! Server is awesome! Coffee is always on top!!! Overall... perfect and greatly recommended!!!! The price is right!
Great food & service. Our server ROXY was outstanding and always there when we needed her. Loved the citrus forward take on coleslaw that accompanied our fish & chips. The patio couch made for a loungy place to relax and enjoy the sun and some beers.
Amazing !!
Beautiful place, excellent service and delicious food. I made a surprise dinner there and Agatha (the Manager) was really friendly and helpful. Also all the VFC were really corteous. My menu was prawns, tacos of fish, linguini, paella, trio of fish, lobster and banana pie. You should visit !!
Had a great time there! Enjoyed happy hour eats and drinks and excellent service from our bartender Luke!
Friend and I tried oysters, fish tacos, fish & chips, and salmon pot pie. All were delicious!
First time, can't wait to go back in the summer and enjoy that patio!
Three of us had lunch there today and we're excellently looked after by Julien. He went through the menu thoroughly and recommended the best wine. Despite the wet day we had a very enjoyable experience.
Was our first time there and loved it. The service was awesome and the food was wonderful. The right flavor and perfect portions. Will definitely come back again and tell me friends and family .
We had a great time on the patio. The food was great and so was our server
Had dinner there tonight. Great food and fantastic service from our waiter Julian. He made our visit memorable and we will definitely return again.
Clam chowder had good potato-y like consistency but could've used more seafood. Humboldt squid definitely didnt disappoint! Excellent presentation and taste. Good quality. Server was professional and well versed. I would definitely come back. Great patio seats with water views.
Tried the oysters & seafood platter——I wasn’t disappointed! Oysters were so fresh they’re sweet! Loved the perfectly cooked halibut & scallops specially. If I lived in BC I’d definitely keep coming back here.
We went for dinner this evening with another couple and couldn’t wait to express what a terrific meal we had and excellent service by our server Eliis! We started with the signature prawns..delicious! Two had halibut (yummy) one short ribs (melt in your mouth) and one had seared scallops (perfect) we all thought it definitely called for a return visit! Go you will not regret it!
Another Granville Island restaurant I have previously visited before, and am now back to preview the Dine Out menu for. Truth be told I found their summer patio nice, but after my first and latest visit, I would pass on their pricy seafood appetizers again. Although today’s second go had me reassessing things. This was the last stop on our media preview tour of Dine Out, Granville Island edition.
The other dessert is Pumpkin Sticky Toffee Pudding with maple bourbon custard, candied walnuts. It kind of reminded me of a dense bread pudding which if you think about it, can never be bad. Rich, comforting, carbs. Yup, that’s what this was.
All in all, I would highly recommend Edible Canada for their boldness in cooking with unconventional ingredients, their dedication to educating tourists and locals on real ‘Canadian cuisine’, and their execution of all of these dishes as it was one of the best DOVF experiences I’ve had.
After finishing shopping at the market i dropped by for brunch and ordered the Daily Hash that consists of mashed potatoes,pawns,sautéed beef and topped off with eggs benedict. The food was delicious and the service was amazing the staff were all friendly,i would highly recommend this place.
Granville island has a serenity environment. Best part of all is the choices of food you can have in one spot. Decor is nice, there's a area out in the corner to tie your dog, or just get take out.
Brunch is a decent experience. Vsc hash, it has sable fish, salmon, smoke salmon and shrimp in a hash mix with soft poached eggs and hollandaise sauce. Great start to the day!
The omelette with halibut and veggies is nice. Great texture and lovely flavors. Very fresh seafood here. Overall it's a safe bet, I would like to come back for dinner.
Overall I thought the dishes on the Ocean Wise Festival menu were well put together and flavours worked. On top of that, you know the ingredients were sourced in a sustainable way. My favourites were Oysters, Haidacore Tuna Tacos and Salish Sea Boil. I’ve never eaten at the Vancouver Fish Company before, but after this menu tasting, I’m intrigued to go back for its regular menu.
Vancouver Fish Company is a restaurant located near the front of Granville Island that opened up about a year ago in the former spot of Whet Kitchen. On the inside, it doesn’t look like they’ve done much redecorating as it has the same vibe of wood tables and black booths. We started our lunch with some refreshing freshly-made lemonade.
I came here for lunch today and my experience was amazing! The waiters were extremely knowledgable and friendly and checked back with us a couple times to make sure we were enjoying our food. We ordered the fish and chips as well as the raw oysters, despite some warnings from online articles about eating raw oysters during this season. Thank gosh it turned out well because neither of us got sick and they were delicious! Although the bill came to around $37 each, the overall ambiance of eating port side and the chic table settings made the meal excellent! Totally recommend this place!
Great place. I had not been there before but decided to go there for Valentines day. It was busy, but the service was great, the good was awesome (they ran out of steaks but me and my girlfriend weren't interested in them). Try the Potted Crab and the Buttered Ling Cod. Each both those were unique in their own right. Highly recommend this place.
Rock Fish and Chips. Light, crispy batter wrapped around the freshest fish. Great skinny fries. Perfectly tangy tartar sauce and lightly dressed, crisp coleslaw.
Great New Year's Eve 6 Course Dinner. The food was exceptional. I’d highly recommend visiting. We were a group of four and had the occasion to share a few bites of many courses. The ling cod and scallops were perfect as were the non fish options, steak & frites, lamb and vegetarian options, eggplant parmesana. We had a lovely time and enjoyed the food immensely. We had a lovely New Year’s Eve 6 course special. The space is beautiful, our server Ben charmingly humorous and the owners and chef welcoming and friendly.
The fish taco appetizer was amazing!
Their chocolate bread pudding was delicious for dessert
Great atmosphere and delicious food. I love this place. The heated outdoor patio overlooking the harbour is great. I had the mussels and the clam chowder and was impressed by how plump and succulent the mussels were and how flavorful the chowder was. I would definitely come back. This place is awesome and right at the entrance of granville island.
Awesome food, location & service!. Was initially surprised to see that 'Whet' had closed down at this same location two weeks prior, but was thrilled when I found it that VFC had opened in its place, with an extensive seafood menu; had the Trio of Fish for dinner (seared tuna, sockeye, smoked sablefish over sauteed veggies) - the presentation was amazing and the fish was cooked to perfection! Our server was very attentive and pleasant. I would highly recommend trying this new seafood place on Granville Isle.
Overall, this is a great dining experience. The restaurant is spacious and very open with the crazy high ceilings. The service was friendly and speedy so it's definitely a place I would return for dinner sometimes.

Hi everyone! The 2015 Dine Out season is upon us once more, so let’s get cracking on some $18/28/38 prixe fixe menus. First up is the Vancouver Fish Company ($28 lunch), a new restaurant on Granville Island. Does the seafood ring true and tender or should you stick to older fish houses? Read on to find out Food: My appetizer was the Dungeness Crab Rangoon (with baby shrimp, shallots, cream cheese, and red pepper bisque). This was akin to Asian fried dumplings but with some premium ingredients. It was a joy to swirl the pepper bisque around these fried bags of flavourful crab and bite into. Another appetizer Team Tastic enjoyed was the VFC Clam Chowder (with fresh clams and bacon-wrapped bacon!). This was a hot and fresh soup with the right amount of clams inside. The bowl was a hearty serving and great value for dineout seeing as its regular price is $12. My choice of entree was the Pan-seared Bowen Island Sockeye (with tomato risotto). What a treat! The salmon was very tender and juicy (though not as juicy as what I’ve had at Farmer’s Apprentice). The risotto was a good complement and the two made a very good pairing to swirl and mix together. The Rock Fish and Chips was our second entree. This is essentially a premium fish and chips (none of that basic cod) with a side of fries and tartar. I can’t say this was a very good choice as the batter was quite soggy and didn’t hold its shape very well. In addition, the Rock Fish was quite chunky and thick which I don’t feel is my style of fish and chips; the soggy batter didn’t help. To finish off, my dessert was the Flour-less Chocolate Cake . With a dallop of ice cream on the side, this dense cake was a welcome end to the meal. If you can imagine a thick brownie with ice cream on top, this cake isn’t too far from that idea, so dig in.
Our first meal for Dineout Vancouver 2015 occurred at the Vancouver Fish Company, near the entrance to Granville Island. This place opened less than year ago, occupying the space previously home to Whet (and Sammy J Peppers before that).
We had reservations, but it probably wasn’t necessary, as the place was not that busy. Particularly for weekend at lunch. We went with the Dineout lunch set menus. This started with two appetizers...
Happy hour prices are okay! Comparing it solely to typical buck a shuck in Toronto ($1 per oyster vs $2.5 per oyster) but the oyster taste was great! Food was good. We ordered a variety of dishes and all were great. Fresh and good! I wish the server was a bit more relaxed and not super professional as the place didn’t seam like a super fancy fine dining place. My friend said her grilled cheese was a bit burnt at the ends
I am not alone in loving happy hour. The smaller portions are just right. The maple prawns are such an interesting blend of sweet, spicy and nutty. The lingcod is deep fried but not greasy and so moist. Can’t go wrong. Wore warm clothes so I could sit outside and enjoy the view. Each table has ceiling heater. Attentive server, will definitely return
I LOVE THEIR HAPPY HOUR! The seafood was soooo fresh and we ordered ROUNDS of oysters, mussels and cocktail shrimps! Highly recommend dropping by here if you’re in Granville during their happy hour! Not only do you beat their dinner rush but you get to enjoy their fresh seafood at a discounted price!!
We had a great time happy hour! Small size oysters but perfect for me (size) and very fresh. Mussels are with amazing soup but not come with bread. Only 1hr we had this time but server was very nice and friendly.
Great spot for happy hour! The happy hour prices are pretty good, otherwise it's definitely on the spendy side. The staff was very friendly. We came 15 minutes before the end of happy hour and they seated us and took our order quickly so we could still get the great deal. The outdoor seating was right by the water, which was fantastic! I had the clam chowder, which was just ok.
4.5 stars! Great service and food. Really enjoyed the seafood hot pot and halibut cake from the dine out menu. Presentation of the halibut cake was ok but it tastes fabulous. The tartar sauce was just right not too sweet to help compliment the savoury cake. The seafood hot pot has a tad of spiciness to it and gave it an extra kick.
The seafood chowder and seafood linguine from the all day menu were also very palatable. The seafood chowder is also slightly spicy which I thoroughly enjoyed but it might not be for everyone, especially those who do not enjoy spicy food.
Only the cheesecake dessert from the dine out menu was a let down. Cheesecake itself is already quite heavy and combining with a thick chocolate fudge topping is over the top.
*Been back here a few times already. We would go to adventure with kids and come over for lunch. Kid friendly restaurant with family washroom. Hailbut fish and chips is one of our favourites. The kids love the chicken steps and cod bites.
