The Rise Eatery - Vancouver, British Columbia

I’ve made a couple of trips to The Rise for brunch, dinner and their dine out period. Every visit is a fantastic one. Every time I come back here I always order the UNI-versal XO pasta! It’s so good and if you get it you MUST order it with the fresh ... uni! They also have other Asian fusion dishes - we got the ultimate se-duck-tion which was a rice bowl with some duck and foie gras which is a unique take. All of their dishes have such fun and creative names :) They have a great selection of cocktails, I particularly like a bright future and lolliwood north. Dessert is also really good with their matcha tart and boba coma cake (sponge cake filled with tapioca pearls and brown sugar sauce). The ambiance is warm and lively- both family and date night friendly or even to celebrate your bday with a small group of friends. The servers were really friendly, sweet and attentive. Overall, I recommend this place for brunch and dinner if you’re looking for something unique with yummy Asian fusion food. Read more

The fusion food here is paired successfully with flavors that work really well together. I had the Uni-versal Eggsellence and it was pure yum. The Uni sauce was creamy and rich and you could even add on fresh pieces of local uni on the crepe which wrapped eggs and shrimp. ... The potatoes are perfectly cooked and crisp on the outside like a chip and soft on the inside with fluff. The flower power drink was refreshing. However, the best thing here is their homemade hot sauce! It is creamy with the perfect amount of kick. Read more

I came here for dinner and it was a wonderful experience. I think the drinks are good and the social atmosphere is welcoming. I also like that the portions are not tiny and everything is made for sharing. The food tastes very good and I enjoyed my time there. The ... only thing is that it’s not like super special I could get the same type of food elsewhere. I saw the lunch or brunch menu and I think I like those menus better so perhaps I need to give that a try first. Overall though I really liked it. Read more

First time here. The food and service was excellent. Nice little patio in the back. We tried several dishes (6 between 2 of us and it was too many to finish but the bill was still under $100 with a glass of wine). The corn/tapioca fritters remind me of the ... Brazilian cheese balls, so good! We liked them better without using the sauce. The scallops were cooked perfectly. The pea/mint risotto was also cooked perfectly. Portion sizes were excellent for the price, we were pleasantly surprised at how large they were. The decor is sheek and modern, a mix of concrete and wood. This is an excellent tapas restaurant.

Great place to have brunch. Great mix of Asian/West Coast fusion food. Plenty of different dishes to choose from. The selection includes vegetarian dishes too. Great service and the atmosphere is nice. Make sure you go early as the place fills quickly. Finding parking can be a challenge especially in ... and around the South Granville area. Definitely another place to go for Brunch. Had the Ratatouille dish and was great. There was the burger special of the day that was very delicious. They have booster chairs too for young kids.
