Great experience
A treat to have such well-prepared food from beginning to end. We started with the fried mushrooms and chips and dip. Delicious, but the next course of beets outshone the early dishes. We loved the sauce. The cabbage with hazelnut mole was next and m

Another Michelin-starred restaurant in Vancouver that truly deserves all its accolades. Their cocktails were amazing- borderline dangerous because they were so smooth and you couldn't really taste the alcohol. I highly recommend Figgy Sins (if i

I went as a guest with three others for a business lunch on a Tuesday in September. We ordered two dishes person plus dessert to share. The food is French inspired, high end good food. While the food was pretty good and it is served family style howe
Went for our first and overall rather enjoyable.
Service was good, but as a Michelin stared restaurant expect more, pouring our own whine is not acceptable. Food flavors were absolutely amazing, food was whimsical and fun. Unfortunately portions left something to be desired. Again for teh cost of
The food was good.
Was it something I never had before or would I remember this meal in one year's time - no. But, there was nothing wrong with it. However, there were several service and atmosphere lapses. First off, the hostess was barely civil on arrival. S
Not classic seasonal set, I recommend you choose a-la carte menu
I’d rather recommend you to go for a-la carte menu, not bet on a set. Because it’s not a classic Michelin experience, so you could be a little disappointed. We’ve tried Summer set menu - it is a rather creative set, but not striking. Some dishe

This place fires on all cylinders and is very deserving of its Michelin star. We couldn't decide what to eat so we split 5 dishes. Three dishes per person is recommended, but we left plenty satisfied after those 5 dishes and 2 desserts, a peach
Solid food experience although portions are quite small
Solid food experience although portions are quite small relative to the price. I was glad that we ordered a la carte vs the tasting menu as it felt better value - was surprised they did not offer any type of bread or amuse bouche to start the meal. T
Simply Superb
My husband & I ate here on vacation & it was, by far, one of the best meals of our 3 week trip. We selected the tasting menu & paired wines. Very pleased to see that Canadian wines were highlighted. Extremely knowledgeable & gracio

We had the tasting menu for our celebratory dinner in Vancouver before embarking on a cruise the next day, and it was quite a treat. Never in my life have I had a meal with more flower petals and leaves; and the way everything was composed, it was a
We were in Vancouver for the weekend and had heard great
We were in Vancouver for the weekend and had heard great things about Published on Main. Since we brought the kids, we had to go a la carte, but they were really kind about letting our 3 and 5 year old dine with us. Cocktails: I loved the puns in

I got a reservation for the Flourish tasting which has 10 courses. Lasted almost 4 hours. 1) Foraged mushroom and onion and elderflower gel with forest flower around the rim cold soup. Flavorful. Have to sip where the forest flowers are for max
Thought widely considered one of Vancouver's best (if not
Thought widely considered one of Vancouver's best (if not Canada's best) restaurants, I was a bit disappointed. The food is flawlessly presented, but there was little to distinguish it from any other "good not great" restaurant.
Extraordinary from start to finish! A great meal is
Extraordinary from start to finish! A great meal is enhanced by great service & we were fortunate to have Ali as our waiter. Everyone who stopped by our table was delightful & knowledgeable. They all seem to take a great deal of pride in work
Delicious barbecue beef
The menu has a good selection of food dishes. The German butter potato gnocchi was delicious and the barbecue beef was tasty.
Well worth a visit
Delicious interesting food using local ingredients, attentive knowledgeable service and a range of Canadian and international wines. A great experience.
An amazing dinning experience
Difícil decidir donde cenar entre las diversas opciones de restaurantes Michelin que tiene la ciudad. Al final optamos por este lugar de cocina contemporanea con un enfoque sustentable. Decidimos ir por el especial de día, un rib eye espectacular q
A mid restaurant trying to be top tier
Good waiter lazy service All dishes tasted the same Waited ages for drinks Go to Earls for a better experience. No one needs to hear Jessie Girl when they walk into a room.the atmosphere is that of a neighborhood chain restaurant. For a restauran
A must visit when in Vancouver!
One of the most creative, beautiful and delicious meals I’ve had in a very long time. Absolutely recommended. The service was superb, very professional, friendly and helpful. Will definitely return on a future visit to Vancouver.
Exceptional all around
Such a great meal and experience. It’s nice to see that everyone you encounter here truly values your experience from the moment you check in to the moment you leave. Exceptional all around. We ordered ala carte as we had dietary restrictions whi
Mid. Dull. Meh.
The kitchen needs to up its game. Ravioli had an almost gelatinous “vodka” sauce that makes Roa’s jar sauce high end. The spring vegetables were slopped in a vinaigrette which made the otherwise fresh veggies disappear. Potatoes with brassaole
Terrific food, fantastic service, well worth the trip!
Terrific food, great service! Went here for a special dinner with family. I can understand why this place got a Michelin star. Great, tasty, well-presented food, with attentive service. Not pretentious, but very "high-end casual". Wou
Don’t miss if you have the chance
This a wonderful spot although reservations can be difficult to find. The food is designed to be shared and generally the serving sizes are on the smaller side. This is not a problem as you get to try more dishes. Food and cocktails are delicious
Nothing says tashy like a mandatory tip!!!!!
Mandatory tip?!?! How abut pay your staff! For how much you charge for a meal you should have no problem paying a living wage.
On of the best
So we had to reserve long time beforehand! I did not like the location but when it comes to quality then yes! It was really delicious!
LOVED our meal and dining experience
We had the tasting dinner with wine pairing, and it was superb. I won't discuss the dishes because they are frequently changing, but each was delicious, and we sent back plates nearly licked clean after each course. As other reviewers had noted, th
Fun fancy food
Very interesting food. All good of course, things that you didn't know you wanted to try. Beautiful plating and incredible service, all staff were very friendly and answered all out questions. Ordered 5 courses for 2 people, the dessert, Hay custard
Interesting but probably not worth a return visit
Intimate dining it's not - our party of 2 was party to diners' conversations on both sides of our table. The menu is interesting - unusual combinations of ingredients and sauces contrived from fruits not normally found in this part of the world. O
Not very celiac friendly
Choice for celiacs was very limited and not much effort was made to accommodate dietary restrictions. Small things were missin such as No paper towels after washing hands in the bathroom. We ordered a starter to share and then a main each. The firs
Enjoyable
Came to the restaurant to celebrate my birthday. The service was very good, although it felt like 4 or 5 different servers were at the table at different points. Ordered 4 courses and asked that they didn’t arrive all at once. They didn’t, but th
Great food. Need some change I attitude to customer service
Great food. Inspired flavours. Great local cuisine. Excellent combination of ingredients Service is untuned. We asked for wine with our appetizers and no one came to take our request until after the appetizers were delivered to our table.
Fun and unusual dishes
This is a hip restaurant! Waiters are very knowledgeable and friendly, food is eclectic strong taste and innovative, this is a one Michelin star restaurant and well deserved, wine list is unusual and focusing on boutique wineries
Stunning
This is a restaurant not to be missed - we were fortunate enough to be a group of 4 which meant that we were able to explore more of the menu than we would have been able to if only a couple - but do not let this deter you from dining here. The vario
Outstanding
We went just a few days after the Michelin star was awarded, although we had booked before. Love the room - the size, the lighting, the atmosphere. Service was excellent - I actually knew the server from when she worked at a different restaurant in t
A well deserved Michelin star!
Everything was great! An energetic but relaxed ambiance. Original and delicious cocktails; truly well done… The food is outstanding. Order anything and you’ll be ooing and awing… Wonderful all around!
not all it's cracked up to be......don't want to go back
As a single diner they don't make reservations for one. I knowingly opted to get there early and hope for a seat at the bar......I got one...after about a 30 minute wait. There were other vacant bar seats....so I must assume the wait was staff orie
Connect with users posting reservations for Published on Main Vancouver
AppointmentTrader is a community-driven platform where users can exchange their reservations or leverage their personal relationships with Published on Main Vancouver. Buyers can make informed decisions using automated seller ratings, which reflect past transactions and reliability.
Each posting on AppointmentTrader shows you which user submitted it and along with that provides a trackrecord of that user which indicates how much experience
the user has and how many percent of their transactions resulted in them issuing a refund.
If there is no user posting that fits your schedule, you can bid on your preferred time.
Let's say Peter has a great morning and decides to take his three friends to Published on Main Vancouver at 6 PM the same day.
He checks the restaurant's website and sees that no reservations are available. He then looks at the Published on Main Vancouver page on AppointmentTrader, but finds that there are no user postings either.
That's where the community-driven bid process comes in.
Peter can place a bid on AppointmentTrader, which serves as a reward for any community member who chooses to work on securing the reservation. AT then notifies experienced users who may be able to help.
Step-by-Step Process
1.) Setting a Reward (Bid)
* AppointmentTrader uses historical data to recommend a reasonable reward amount for securing a reservation - let's say $100.
* Peter really wants to go, so he increases the bid (or reward) to $200.
* At this stage, the reservation does not exist yet.
2.) A Community User Picks Up the Bid
* ElaborateHouse74, an experienced AT user, has a strong track record of successfully securing reservations and low refund requests, they receive a notification about Peter's $200 bid.
* ElaborateHouse74 picks up the bid, meaning they will now work on securing the reservation.
* Peter can now talk to ElaborateHouse74 for any questions Peter may have as ElaborateHouse74 user fills the bid.
3.) Finding the Reservation
* ElaborateHouse74 now uses their connections at Published on Main Vancouver to secure the table.
* If they successfully get the 6 PM table for four, Peter receives a confirmation that the reservation has been secured.
* If ElaborateHouse74 fails to secure the reservation, the bid is returned to the pool so another user can try.
4.) Payment & Protection
* Once the reservation is secured, ElaborateHouse74 receives the $200 reward which is credited to ElaborateHouse74's AT balance, where users manage their own funds and can withdraw via available payout options such as bank transfer, PayPal, or Zelle.
* Peter can now enjoy the dinner with his friends at Published on Main Vancouver!
* As with all transactions on AT, disputes and no-show fees are handled through the platform's community-driven resolution system. Users with a strong track record are incentivized to fulfill bids successfully, and community members can report issues to maintain trust in the marketplace.
