Vancouver Offerings

Hapa Izakaya

Hapa Izakaya is an award-winning Japanese restaurant with ample seating. Dimly lit, it’s an excellent place for big parties that want an intimate feel. Their tasty Tapanese (Japanese tapas) menu is sure to be a hit. Keep the party lively and order the well known mackerel scorched tableside. For 7+ guests, make sure to contact the restaurant.

PHNOM PENH

We’ve mentioned Phnom Penh before as it’s a favourite around here. Bustling and lively, this is a great place to have larger parties as most of the tables are already meant to accommodate large families. The food is bursting with flavours and is sure to keep the party going as each dish is a pure delight.

Tap & Barrel Bridges

Bring your big party to Granville Island for gorgeous views and keep the party going with picturesque after-dinner walks. The menu is mouth-watering, and this big space is known for hosting parties as large as weddings! We love that the reservation booking goes to 20; for larger parties, make sure you call ahead.

Sammy J’s Grill & Bar

One of the most popular and accessible Asian grocery stores that never disappoints. We’ve mentioned their cakes before because their bakery section is unbeatable. We love picking up hot food and cannot leave without coconut buns and shrimp shumai.

15770 Croydon Dr, Surrey

Mr. Ho’s

Mr. Ho’s is a perfect place to dine out for big parties and large families. We can’t praise their friendly and fast service enough, especially when you have a lot of hungry tummies to fill. Their top-notch dumplings keep them busy! They are great with walk-ins, but we suggest calling ahead.

6731 Kingsway, Burnaby

Joey

Burgers, sushi, pastas- Joey has it all- plus great seating for big parties. This vibrant spot is great for lively parties. If you need to book your party as a full fledged event, they can accommodate that as well. For a large party book here.
