Provence Marinaside

Vancouver


There's a serious seafood fixation at this elegant, French-approach restaurant just across from Yaletown's False Creek waterfront. But if you're not in the mood for marine-based treats, there are also lamb and chicken dishes. Feeling aquatically inclined? Face-plant into the feast-tastic seafood platter, including everything from clams to scallops; it's simply prepared and utterly delicious. Patio summer dining recommended.

This restaurant is also one of Yaletown's most popular weekend brunch spots (don't miss the seafood crepes). And if you're in the area and suddenly thirsty for an afternoon libation, the 2pm to 5pm Tappy Hour includes a huge array of by-the-glass wine deals.
