Arms Reach Bistro - Vancouver

Very good food, extremely nice location with lots of windows onto beautiful Deep Cove, Cosy atmosphere. The cauliflower starter and the penne with chicken were amazing. We found the baked spaghetti a bit bland: the sauce was good, but there were too many spaghetti for it. I only rated 4 for service because when we asked for a glass of wine when our food came (our glasses were empty) it took quite long before it came, meanwhile our food getting cold. This can happen but in fact it happened twice, on consecutive evenings. Perhaps it’s my European background but I wouldn’t mind at all if the food took a little longer to be served but once you have the food you want the drink fast.

The best!!! My family and I are regulars here. Service is excellent along with the food, we usually order caesar salad, coconut mussels, carpaccio and black cod! Delicious food. Can’t go wrong with Arms Reach

Ridiculously delayed service, 92 min for the food to arrive!!!Very limited menu, the side dishes are very limited and repetitive. The appetizers are part of the main course dishes too!Rookie and young staff and inexperienced management team.

I always wanted to try this place because of the location and the great views they have.We didn't have a reservation for lunch so we were sitted on a table in the middle of everything ?‍? I asked the hosts if she could move us to a different table but that was the only one that she had for us.I thought about leaving the restaurant cuz we just came basically for the views, luckily the server was more helpful and was able to move us to a different table, I think the host lady with blue hair) needs more training, and to be more friendly as well).The mussels we really good but the short rib was a little Salty.They have good prices, but they have room for improvement ??

Been going to arms reach for years and it is always a great experience. The mussels are my favourite, and I have never had better ones anywhere else. They are steamed in a creamy, garlicky broth that is like no other! I have had a couple of bad batches in the past (out around 30 times ordering the mussels but the staff is always quick to make up for it and bring me something else. Spicy spaghetti is always delicious and full of sausage! They also offer a gluten-free penne (so good you would never even know it didn't have gluten! for those with a sensitivity/allergy. Brunch is also great, my favorite is the salmon Benedict with the mimosa flight!You can make a reservation for indoors, but the patio is first come first serve. With the incredible views of the water, it makes sense why. Dogs are also welcome on the patio. Brunch, lunch, or dinner, if you are looking for a nicer place with fresh seafood, Arm's reach is the place to go!Photos are of the baked spaghetti and rose wine flight, and my family after an amazing meal for my birthday dinner!Vegetarian options: The fried cauliflower and green beans appetizer with the green goddess-like sauce is to die for!Dietary restrictions: Amazing gluten-free pasta!
