Sai Woo - Vancouver

Large Chinese fusion food. excellent cocktails and good service. the place was very quiet as it was early days after the reopening to covid. but would certainly recommend

Eating was good for the worth in portions were excellent! service was always punctual and well explained. the chef recommended her hot sauce, which I will probably not order again. apart from that, eating was excellent

Delicious! the drinks were delicious, the food was delicious and the atmosphere was fantastic.

Fabulous place for an easy date night. Highly recommend! Could also be good for a small group, they had amazing cocktails AND mocktails. We took home leftovers. :

Having been to Sai Woo at least a half dozen times, I love the craft cocktails, ambience and share plates. But I have had two very negative experiences with a staff member who reacted very poorly to my telling her that I have a cilantro allergy. Yes, I know lots of Asian food (Thai, Indian etc. as well as Mexican food can be laced with cilantro. And yes, I still chose to go there because I like their food. But both times, several weeks apart, when I mentioned this (politely I might add , she was very rude about it (not my opinion, my wife's view the first time, and my daughter's the second time . Instead of politely advising that a lot of the dishes had cilantro but that she would speak to the kitchen (which is the proper response and the one I have experienced at every other restaurant I have mentioned this at , she was quite rude about it. Let's be clear, servers are in the service business! That is not service. My wife and I are foodies we travel the world for food and have eaten everywhere from street stalls in the third world to muliple michelin starred restauarants include three three star restaurants (Mexico, Italy and USA . And several two starred restaurants and lots one one starred ones. This is the only place I have had such as negative response. Vancouver is a competitive food scene and restaurants should be working to entice people like us to come out and support their businesses. This kind of service does not hurt me, it only hurts the restaurant. Come on guys, get your act together.
