White Spot - Vancouver, British Columbia

Okay, so first time here and my friends said it's awesome. We luckily got here for happy hour. So, we got a bunch of different dishes, so let me review. (I did not try the impossible burger and Cobb Salad, but from my friends, it wasn't anything special.) Pros on food: The Fish ... Haddock Burger with ceasar Mediocre and honestly the coleslaw flavor neutralized whatever fish flavor there was. The crispiness was on point, but having jo flavor really shine through this burger, I was left sad and feeling like I had a fish filler at McDonalds. The ceasar was the most disappointing salad I've had. So I started nibbling on my friends dishes. Prawn Spinach and Mushroom Fettuccine: Dry. More like a dry pasta salad with some shrimp. The prawn was decently cooked, but once you're done with them and left with the rest, it's exhaustivdly dry. She's didn't even finish her dish, just a few nibbles that's it and left the bowl full. Fries: Average Okay so let's be real, I just ate at a burger style Denny's. Price was moderately higher for this quality of a meal. I'd rather stick to my more trusted restaurants. Worth it, if you're hungry it's a fun place and service was spectacular. Our waiter deserves a raise and the speed of food to table was nice. But quality of dishes, 3 stars. Sorry supporters of White Spot. Read more

My first time trying white spot, believe it or not! My friend and I had a great time, we’ve been welcome with smiles and warmth then we choose our spot, decided to get outside and it was lovely. Our server was literally the nicest ever and helped me kindly but surely ... to enjoy as much as I could my dishes. He was a real professional, and if you read this lines I personally thank you again, I should have ask your name. I got myself the sweet potatoes fries, I was craving for those since a while, they were delicious then I got the tomatoes and spinach benny because Benny are a must to get, I added an extra bacon with it. It was really good. And to harmonized my lunch, I finished with the salted caramel milkshake… I was full and my heart soothed. Thank you 🙏🏻 Read more

I’ve not been to White Castle since 1965 when it was a drive in only burgers and fries joint. The dining room and expanded menu are a very pleasant surprise. The legendary burger was just a burger then, but it has since become legendary and is still as delicious as I ... remember. The fries are very good and the coleslaw is wonderfully sublime. I’m told that the perogies are quite tasty. Read more

Dined during happy hour and had the Humboldt squid appetizer (savings of $4) and Caesar salad. It was a satisfying portion for lunch. The squid batter was crispy and came with lots of Tzatziki presented on the plate versus in a side container. At a regular price of $16, I ... would have expected more squid but it was reasonable for $12. Service was adequate and friendly! White Spot continues to be a favourite spot for comfort food. We are disappointed that they no longer have a seniors menu, although our server did say a couple of items like the fish and chips can be made in a smaller portion. Read more
