Lonely Planet review for Bishop’s

A pioneer of superb West Coast cuisine long before the ‘locavore’ fashion took hold, modest but legendary chef-owner John Bishop – he’ll almost certainly drop by your table to say hi – is still at the top of his game in this charming, art-lined little restaurant. Served in an elegant, white-tablecloth room, the weekly-changing menu can include stuffed rabbit loin, steamed smoked sablefish and the kind of crisp, seasonal veggies that taste like they’ve just been plucked from the ground. The service here is pitch-perfect, so stay a little longer and indulge in dessert: if you’re lucky, it’ll be sweet fried fig empanada with brown sugar ice-cream.

    For the foodie with a large budget

    jklass recommends this,

    If you are looking for a true Vancouver culinary experience, Bishops is the place to go. The service is amazing, the atmosphere is quaint and elegant, and the food is astounding. This is my favorite restaurant in all of Vancouver. The food is incredibly simple and innovative. Every bite is glorious to say the least. John Bishop uses all fresh, LOCAL, seasonable, natural produce and meats. If you money isn't a factor (because yes, a night at Bishops is pricey!) and you call yourself a true foodie, YOU MUST COME HERE!! Go all out, and opt for a three course meal with wine :-) You will not regret it
