Hey Everyone,
Welcome to my post on
Sockeye City Grill, a waterfront seafood restaurant located in Steveston
Village. Jess and I decided to try this restaurant while walking around the
area as we knew there were several similar restaurants here. Sockeye City Grill
had two patio areas, which we thought would give us a higher chance of getting
a table earlier, so we decided to put our name down on their waitlist.
Upon arriving, we were
told it would be about a 15 minute wait for the patio, but throughout our half
hour wait, it seemed this was the estimate they were telling every party that
arrived. Despite there being several empty tables, they did not seat anyone
there until much later, either due to lack of staff or slow service. They have
a take-out window at the front of the restaurant as well. The patios were well
shaded around 6pm on a very hot summer evening, with umbrellas at every table.
When we were finally
seated, there were 5 other empty tables around us. A server arrived after a few
minutes to take our initial orders, but we were ready with the full order since
we had ample time to look over the menu posted in front of the restaurant.
They started us off with free bread and butter, which are my absolute favourite thing to eat when it's free!
