Good and tasty hotel restaurant. On expensive side, but the food quality is good. They have good cocktails menu as well. I really liked their lobster risotto. The restaurant is typically not very busy during lunch time, but they require a deposit to guarantee your reservation. To be honest, most times reservation is not necessary. Solid 4 stars restaurant

Highly recommend the carpaccio & pan seared scallops! Intimate ambience, attentive & friendly staff, great interior decoration. There was a lovely pianist playing during dinner. Great for smaller groups or dates.

We went for dinner around busy holiday season. The waiter was super nice and attentive, recommended good cocktails.

I had What the flower and my partner had Me Time. For food, we ordered wagyu beef carpaccio, grilled octopus, kurobuta pork chop, and black pepper crusted salmon.

My favorite was the pork chop and grilled octopus! The salmon wasn’t my best taste because the soup was quite sour. Overall the food quality was really good and interior was really nice! I would come back again 😊

Second time visiting. Amazing food. Even more amazing cocktails! Atmosphere is surprisingly peaceful/comfortable for a crowded and lively place. Great service both times. All-round 5-stars for me.

My friends and I went here for a 3 course brunch. It was delightful. Every server was Amazing and Friendly. The atmosphere was aesthetically pleasing. I love the food. I would rate 5/5. I would come back to try the dinner menu. Compare to their other partner restaurants, this is the best fairmont restaurant that I went to.

The service was amazing, they even remembered your name throughout the whole dining. I was here for brunch and it was great experience. However, the food can be better, it was nicely presented but I didn’t enjoy the medium rare steak. The coffee smelled good but they can do better, it was ‘watery’ for me.

Service here was super welcoming. Shocking for such a high end area. Especially for how they treat people of color. Impressive. Food was really good, overall the menu has things other restaurants do but everything is served and made meticulously, you can tell there’s a lot of effort put into everything. Servers are friendly and flexible. Good experience and the atmosphere is welcoming too!

Can’t say enough good things about our time at Botanist! We came for our wedding anniversary and had a beautiful card and champagne waiting for us at the table. The hostesses were very courteous and our server, Chris, was amazing. He thoroughly explained different menu options to make sure the experience was catered to our tastes and checked on us often from the appetizers through the main course to dessert.

The atmosphere was wonderful. We sat in the semi-outdoor seating area near the bar with beautiful foliage and piano playing in the background.

One thing to note: be wary of the bread—delicious and so tempting to keep eating it but save your appetite for the main course and you won’t be sorry. Tagliatelle, poached halibut, and king salmon were perfect along with the raspberry pavlova. Also enjoyed our drinks: “What the Flower” and “Needed Escape”.

Would definitely recommend!
