Lovely and quaint. I have loved this building since I was a little girl. Tonight my husband and I went for dinner. The hotel has a lovely lounge for casual eating and the slightly more formal restaurant. The atmosphere couldn't have been more perfect with great jazz music playing in the background at just the right volume. We got a table right up against the window that faced gorgeous English Bay. Service was impeccable - Pierce , our waiter, was amazing . He was polite and attentive without being intrusive. We were very well looked after. The food was great. Fresh and delicious. We had fried squid and crab cakes for the appetizer course. Delicious. My husband had pasta with clams. It was perfect. My BC salmon salad was just as fantastic. Food locally sourced and cooked to perfection. As a bonus I found out that charming Errol Flynn, one of my favourite actors, was a regular at The Sylvia back in the day. What a wonderful date night Valentine's dinner we had. Thank you to everyone who took such great care of us at the charming Sylvia Hotel. We will most definitely be back.
