- Overall, my experience was quite well.
- This is one of the best dinning experiences we have had in many years.
- I was quite surprised as I had been told it was an excellent restaurant.
- It's also a good "people watching" venue.
- love this restaurant....everything was perfect.
- I will definitely go there again as my husband and I enjoyed the experience from beginning to the end.
- a long delay after a very disappointing visit almost a year ago.
- Our server was exceptionally knowledgable which made our dining experience even memorable.
- Top notch restaurant with everything on the menu earning well deserved rave reviews.

- The food (appetizer & entree) were great but not filling....Dessert was excellent and well presented....It is the highlight of my experience there.
- Wonderful food, as always!
- To be honest, the DOV menu is not as impressive as other restaurants....My dad ordered the beef tenderloin from the a la carte menu and it was delicious and juicy!...The only negative comment I could give would be the small portion.
- they have the best food during dinner and dine out!
- If anything the dessert was great.
- Great food!
- The lamb and the pasta were amazing -...The cocktails were delicious and unique.
- The food was great and the mood was romantic....The bartender recommended this great beer to go with the meal (a dark stout with hints of cocoa)....Otherwise, the meal was great from beginning to end.

- This was one of the worst meals I have ever had in a restaurant any many in my group felt the same way.

- Excellent food and ambience.
- We enjoyed our lunch....The food was delicious and well presented....A lovely meal in deed!
- they have a fantastic selection at all levels.
- Flavors were good, but sometimes delicate flavors (tuna) were lost.
- It was a wonderful dinner for my guests from Italy, Austria and Turkey.
- This time however, the food was pretentious, and average.

- Dinner was amazing....The staff + chef made it very memorable.
- in February 2009, only to be disappointed by the uninspired cuisine and mediocre taste....Given West's stature, we were surprised by the overcooked, dry and chewy lobster....Unfortunately, the second lobster was still overcooked, though a bit less.
- Our server was exceptionally knowledgable which made our dining experience even memorable....I really appreciated the detailed explanations of the meals as they were served.
- Great food, service.
- Tasting menu was phenomenal.
- The food was mediocre, excellent ingredients treated sloppily, wilted vegetables, overdone meat and lukewarm entrees -...For fans of fresh, westcoast food, Raincity beats out West any day.

- It's hard to eat anywhere else when you are sure of a sublime meal at West!
- The pumpkin soup & pineapple tart are outstanding.

- Great food and very expensive!
- Wine list is overpriced.
- We had the Crab and Tortellini appetizers, pretty good, nothing I would order again, small....The Fish was excellent, but not worth $35 in my opinion, you can get amazing Mussels at chambar for $22 for example....Overall I found it pricey with very small portions....If your into a "food experience" and not Dinner its a place with a unique menu presented well....Desserts were amazing and only $12 so 5* for desert.
