So the trick here is to have a party less than 6 and reserve seats in advance along the window wall (they will know what you mean). You will get an amazing view of the harbour, Stanley Park, and the mountains. In the summer the wall is opened and you get fresh air as well. Cactus Club has great food and service as well. You will love it. Try the Raincoast Greens salad.
