    Eating at Pubmished has always been enjoyable for us. Food and service are always excellent, the wine service in particular. The food prices are a bit steep compared to the other options available.

    My wife and I sat at the bar and was served by Andrew, and all I have to say is WOW. The service was impeccable, the drinks were amazing, and the food was out of this world. We've been to a handful of nice restaurants but never experienced such attentive and kind service before. Andrew suggested a few things to eat and each item was better than the last! We also asked if he could recommend us some places to eat and see around vancouver and he went around to all his coworkers asking for recommendations and wrote them down on a card and gave it to us. We will most definitely be back here again! Thank you for such a memorable experience.
