Susana, Mateo, the Executive Chef, Behshad all provide exceptional and professional service in a fine dining atmosphere. The food here is outstanding. If you have breakfast which is served until 11am daily; you will love their idea of hasnrowns which I absolutely love, crispy outside, soft creamy insides. I have never been to a restaurant where you can see the executive Chef and the Pastry chef creating a new dessert for their diners and allowing you to taste it and provide honest feedback to them. Nor do you see them cutting the in-house aged steaks at other restaurants like they do here.

I want to thank all of the staff at CPrime for exceptional service an

My boyfriend and I came here for Valentine’s Day, and as people who regularly dine at high-end, our standards are pretty high. That said, this was hands down the most incredible steak we have ever had.Both of our steaks were cooked to an absolute perfect medium rare.

You can truly taste the care and attention in the kitchen.What made the evening even more memorable, though, was the service.

That level of professionalism and hospitality is rare.There was also another ge

We're from Las Vegas and went to C|Prime for my fiancé's birthday dinner. We found this to be a hidden gem and quite frankly easily rivals my favorite steakhouse in Las Vegas.

Most underrated restaurant in Vancouver. Every time I come to CPrime I am not disappointed. This time around it was our anniversary and we were offered 2 glasses of champagne on the house.
