"Yes, Araxi Restaurant & Oyster Bar is hard to get into, the tables are too close together, and the service can be hit-or-miss. But this long-time farm-to-table favorite (with a brand-new executive chef, Quang Dang, since October 2017) sources ingredients from local farmers, fisheries, and ranchers—including, naturally, a wonderful selection of West Coast oysters—and features one of the best wine selections in British Columbia. Come for splurge-worthy seafood and drinks in a lively locale." - Liz Humphreys
