Best Restaurants for Outdoor Dining in North Vancouver

I always like Pier 7 mainly for the location. I don't like that their CC machine starts at 18pct on top of tax. I didn't like that today's lunch included GST when food, beer and wine are supposed to be GST free for a designated period. These two issues aside, I'm happy to award 5 stars.

I recently had the pleasure of hosting a business lunch at Joe Fortes, and I must say, the service provided by Tim and Heidi was truly exceptional. From the moment we were seated, both Tim and Heidi were attentive, professional, and ensured that every detail was handled seamlessly. Tim’s knowledge of the menu and wine list was impressive, offering thoughtful recommendations that perfectly complemented our meal. Heidi’s warm and personable demeanor created a welcoming atmosphere, making our guests feel comfortable and well cared for. Together, they worked in perfect harmony, anticipating our needs before we even had to ask. The food, as always, was outstanding, but it was the exemplary service from Tim and Heidi that elevated the experience to another level. Their professionalism and genuine hospitality reflect the high standards that Joe Fortes is known for. I would not hesitate to recommend this restaurant for any occasion and will certainly request Tim and Heidi on my next visit. Thank you for making our business lunch a memorable success!

We had a fantastic experience thanks to our wonderful server Ollie! He was super hospitabile and genuinely friendly. Our orders were accurate and he was accommodating when we had to rush our bills so we could make it to our event on time. Thank you Ollie!

Our pizza and Espresso martinis were really good. Our server made my birthday celebration very special.

We really enjoyed our meal again. Excellent server. Nice amd warm on a rainy cold day. Noise level was quiet so we could talk easily to each other. Delicious food and wine. Love the decor. It is a warm and inviting space. Highly recommend.
