Hawksworth - Vancouver

Visited Hawksworth for my anniversary. Servers were attentive and sweet all nigh. They even wrote us a card and provided a little celebration drink on the house. The food was top notch, packed with nutrient-dense seasonal creations. Portions were perfect. Ambiance was dim and romantic, with light music. Price was up there, but it’s worth it for a celebration once in a while. I’ll definitely be visiting here again.

A great fine dining experience in Downtown Vancouver. Food is made with great care and quality and although the portions appear small, it is still very filling and has great plating. Cost will be pricy, as can be expected. Definitely an exciting dining experience and Hawksworth is definitely worth a visit.

Came here for lunch based on the good reviews and having seen them on a few top lists of restaurants to try in Vancouver. I enjoyed my meal but I know my husband didn't enjoy it as much. We got the KFC and the crispy cod starters and I got the lobster roll and Earl Grey panna cotta for dessert while my husband got the prix fixe menu that had a cucumber salad, char siu chow mein and mandarin orange creme for dessert. Of course all the food was presented and plated beautifully. The KFC was so good! I really enjoyed that. The cauliflower is so lightly but evenly fried and has just enough spice in it. The crispy cod wasn't that great. Probably wouldn't order it again. My lobster roll had the softest milk bread with big chunks of lobster. Although I think they could have used just a bit less mayo for it. I also really enjoyed my pana cotta. There were so many different textures and the different flavors of the lemon chocolate, the early grey, and the caramelized pistachios all complemented each other so well. My husband's chow mein was way too saucy for a chow mein and also too salty. The char siu was good but more sausage like than a true char siu. And the cucumber salad can only be so dressed up. Service was not as good as I expected it would be based on reviews. Pricing is high but that was expected. Overall, probably wouldn't return. Reviews were overhyped.

Impeccable service, beautiful atmosphere. Above all else, excellent, inventive food that was perfectly executed. Expensive but worth it!

Everything was delicious and the service was very good. We will definitely return!
