Neighborhood: West End
Price:$-$$
Tucked away beside the busy Davie Street corridor is Balthazar, a pleasantly gaudy, peacefully tacky oasis in the gauntlet of tourists and bikinis that is English Bay. The dark windows of this residential-looking restaurant piqued Vancouverist's interest for months until we were finally lured in by half-price brick-oven pizza Thursdays. Inside an open space of plush red greeted diners who enjoyed specials while sunbeams flitted into the dining room through a small terrace. The pizza was tasty, the beer cheap, and the service friendly. Balthazar transitions at night into a performance space for comedy nights, as well as karaoke, and where the specials continue in abundance. - daenalus

(UPDATE 4/02/08: changed names, maybe even management, seems to be "burlesque-themed" now. have not reviewed since this change)
