Burdock & Co delivers an exceptional dining experience that truly celebrates the artistry of local, seasonal ingredients. We recently had a curated dinner here, and I can confidently say that every dish was a masterpiece—thoughtfully crafted, beautifully presented, and packed with rich, complex flavors.

The tasting menu ($150 per person) felt like a journey through the essence of Pacific Northwest cuisine. From the delicate starters to the imaginative main courses, each bite showcased the restaurant’s commitment to sustainable sourcing and culinary innovation. The flavors were so memorable that we ended up buying the Burdock & Co cookbook to try and recreate some of the dishes at home.

If you’re someone who appreciates meticulous attention to detail and bold, fresh flavors, Burdock & Co is not to be missed. This meal was an experience worth savoring, and we’ll definitely be back for more.

The interior was hip but had a cold vibe when you entered. It was awkward going to the washroom, 2 kitchen staff were chatting right in the middle of the pathway and there’s no acknowledgment that I’m even there. It’s a small restaurant but it wasn’t full around 7:30pm when our reservation ended (Sunday evening). The patio was closed too. We had 3 different servers. Each were kind enough but the interactions all felt a bit superficial/show-like. Food was beautifully presented. We added 2 appetizers with the set menu as well as the wine pairings. My favourite dish was the lamb and my partner loved the spotted shrimp. The corn risotto was hyped by the servers but personally it was my least favourite dish. The dessert was a lovely sour cherry meringue. We enjoyed that as well. The pricing was standard for a Michelin. Was it worth it? Yeah. But can you find other cute and cozy restaurants with delicious food sourced responsibly? Yes. Overall, it was okay.

3 stars: 1. culinary creativity, 2. dietary accommodations, 3. staff friendliness. 2 stars off:  1. pretentiousness, 2. atmosphere (poor lighting and staff [lack of] uniform).

Came here for a wedding anniversary. Yes, it is a Michelin star restaurant; yes, the culinary creations are innovative and unique; yes, it is therefore prestigious and impressive. Alas, it is not for me. For our visit, the featured ingredient was radicchio. Every dish (creations!) was romanced with a story of origins and significance (even the gratuitous bread). While we appreciated the staff's knowledge and the novelty of creative presentations, a salad is still just a salad. Don't be alarmed by the portion sizes: you may still be full by the end of the tasting menu (well, depends on your stomach size). To celebrate our special occasion, we were give two slices of apples that were from a "special orchard", cultivated through a "special agricultural process", from a "special region" of the province. Since the staff there wore plain clothing like the patrons, I was a little worried that I would accidentally flag down a guest for services. Call me old-fashioned! The lighting is (very) dim for coziness, so if you have vision issues, be prepared to bring your own flashlight to view the menu (and bill!).

All in all, it was a fun experience. If you like a unique dining experience that awakes (and shocks) all your senses, and you are there to impress, it might be worth a try. Be sure to increase your credit limit on your card first though!

Great experience. First time to Burdock & Co and just have to say that the service is top notch. Everyone was so kind and knowledgeable and passionate about the food. We went for a tasting menu featuring raddichio. First time trying it and was surprised by the variety of flavour you can get out of a vegetable. There were 6 courses + macarons and we were full by the end of it. We also did get the sourdough bread but we could've not ordered it and still be full. Overall the food and flavours were exquisite, service was amazing and the ambiance was perfect for a special occasion.

The restaurant we visited featured an exceptionally knowledgeable host and sommelier who truly elevated our dining experience. Opting for the wine pairing, we were treated to an array of wines, each accompanied by a fascinating story that enriched our understanding and enjoyment. Their deep expertise and passion for wine shone through in every tale, transforming the meal into a delightful journey through vineyards and vintages. As always, the food was superb, but this time, each dish seemed even more exquisite when paired with the carefully selected wines
