What Robin Wiza doesn't like about Boathouse Restaurant:
The best location in town and sadly the worst restaurant we have here. The steak is overcooked, the drinks take forever and the staff is disengaged and unmanaged. Feels like a bad airport bar for food, staff and vibe. Gave it three tries over the...last year cause we live across the street and the location is amazing, seems criminal they get lease that perfect spot on the beach when the Cactus Club across the water i... View all feedback. What Alfonso Anderson likes about Boathouse Restaurant:
Enjoyed eating here before a theatre trip, we sat by the window and the views of the bay and Kitsilano beach were wonderful. Had fish and chips which unfortunately were a little over cooked, and the batter was very heavy, but nevertheless it was a really pleasant experience. View all feedback.

We share a few appetizers and drinks. Crab dip was served with deep fried pita. Why ? Dip is already greasy from the cheese. Most of it was left despite that we...

Location is great, overlooking KIts Beach and towards North Shore. On a windy day, if you sit by the windows, you'll be in an annoying draft of cold air on one...

The Boathouse at Kits Beach is a mixed bag according to recent reviews. Some diners experienced rude and discriminatory treatment from staff, leading to early departures and negative recommendations. Others found the view of the beach at sunset to be beautiful, but were disappointed by slow service and mediocre food. On the other hand, many patrons enjoyed their dining experience, praising the delicious food, pleasant servers, and amazing cocktails. Overall, while some issues were reported, many customers still appreciate the restaurant for its location, ambiance, and food quality. It seems that personal experiences may vary, but if you're lucky, you might just catch a beautiful sunset while enjoying a great meal at the Boathouse.
