This restaurant is trying to be all that it can be…but it just doesn’t measure up.

If you’re a vegetarian, run now…they can’t accommodate you.
The vibe was dull, the music bland, the seating was crowded and the food was disappointing.
All in all, it’s not worth hitting.

Dishes I tried:

some sort of vegetarian mismatch they concocted

everything on my plate tasted like pumpkin pie (and I mean everything!)

I sent that away, then everything on my plate tasted like vinegar.

hopeless.

r.tl is regional tasting lounge, and expect to find food from regions of the world, as regional here does not mean local food, but quite the opposite. The saffron mussels, fesenjun and barenjena stood out in the food menu. A mean Sazerac if you’re into cocktails, the bartender is THE MAN. Good atmosphere with nice lighting, and a bit unique.

Dishes I tried:

Fesenjun Deconstruction

A rather sweet and sour dish with a mix of special pomegranate and wulnut sauce on juicy chicken breast. Lots of flavour, and I think one of the most unique on the menu. Colorful pesentation and I could not get enough of the sauce.

Barenjena

Vegetarian eggplants and manchego cheese, this one is like lasagna without the starch. The eggplant is pan seared and has a lot of flavour, not being a big fan of eggplant I must say the best eggplant execution I have ever had, and actually enjoyed this.

Yummy eats and paired wines

Beautiful experience all through. Thanks to the GM and bartender, we had a great time and a beautiful meal on Friday. Make sure you check out the wine flights if you visit.

The cherry compote on bison bones made this dish a combination I had never thought of before, and it was great. If I were not sitting in a restaurant in Yaletown when this arrived on the table, I’d probably devour it with both hands like a wild animal :)
