The Sedgwick

Down-Town Delight

I finally tried this well-known Vancouver eatery from the good folks at Feast 316. Their design features tall ceilings, plenty of wall art, plush velvet seating, and a swanky chandelier that creates a very cool vibe.

The menu leans slightly toward seafood and Japanese influences with dishes like grilled octopus and yakitori (skewers), yet it also includes hearty Feast 316 staples such as ribeye steak, beef medallions, and a French burger. We ordered a braised pork yakitori, a burger, and duck fat fries. The braised pork was very tasty. The burger came with a massive deep-fried mushroom. The sandwich was too tall to eat as served, so I removed the mushroom and kept the crusty batter, which made it manageable. The fries were decent but not worth $15.

The cocktails were enjoyable. While their stock is somewhat limited, I was able to find one on the menu that worked. I’d love to see a few more premium liqueurs and mixers so the cocktails could match the level of the décor, but overall The Sedgwick is a delightful eatery. Street parking is hit-or-miss.✌🏻
