Grays Restaurant & Bar - Vancouver (WA)

5 /5 Xär Blackthorn: My ex roommate and I stopped here for burger week yesterday, it was such a huge burger for the price! We loved it! Cute spot right across from the Salmon bell tower so we got to people watch from a window table.

5 /5 Matt Baugh: I can’t say enough about Gray’s! After a delayed red eye flight, I came here for breakfast and was so pleasantly surprised. Had to go with the made-to-order omelette -I couldn’t resist some awesome ingredient choices: goat cheese, peppered bacon, mushrooms, and sautéed onions. The omelette was huge, delicious and the accompanying bliss potatoes with onions and peppers was on point. David was a fantastic server-helpful, fast, and friendly. A really nice guy and a great server! Will definitely be back next time I’m in town.

4 /5 Phillip Burum: I ordered a burger from the Burger Week special and surprisingly it was better than it looked. Chicken fried patty, lettuce, tomato, and egg salad. It has more fancy descriptions but really thats all you need to know. It was a unique experience that I enjoyed far more than I expected to enjoy. The brussel sprouts were good but definitely order the mustard-mayo on the side because it adds nothing. The pretzel was good, but the pimento sauce stuff was suspicious. I ended up mixing the mustard and cheese sauces.

1 /5 Guy Meacham: I cant rate the food because we didnt get to taste it! After waiting more that 30 minutes from when our order was taken and with no follow-up checkin or service I went to find our waitress and asked if she knew when our food would be arriving as it had been over 30 minutes. She said that she didnt, but they were very busy. The Restaurant was 50% full at best. The food finally arrived after 40 minutes only for one of our two orders to be the wrong thing! The lady who brought the food out quickly pointed out that "it wasnt her fault!" We were told that we could get what we had ordered in about another 10-15 minutes or so! No apology, no offer to keep my food warm while they cooked my wifes. That when we decided to just leave. Grays was one & done for me.

3 /5 Ben Curtin: Went to Gray’s while staying at the accompanying hotel on business (airlines). I travel frequently and I am always on the lookout for healthy meals with good fats and protein. Rather than eat protein bars and snacks of my bag, I decided an omelette would be nice, and decided to give Grays a try. It was a Saturday approaching lunch time, and I don’t think there was more than a couple customers in the restaurant. The atmosphere was nice, it was a beautiful day and they had big windows opened up to the outdoor sidewalk. However the lack of customers may have been because of some anti-customer business practices I found to follow. The food was decent. The 3 egg omelette was pretty standard. Had good flavor, maybe the eggs were slightly overdone but it wasn’t burnt or unappetizing by any means. Pretty standard I would say as far as food on the road goes. However I’m reducing a star purely because this restaurant feels justified to charge a “to-go” fee for any to-go orders. That type of price-gouging should never become an acceptable practice for any restaurant as American consumers and tourists are already nickel and dimmed for many aspects in their lives already. Often I choose the “to-go” route to save some time as I can get more work done in the hotel room, rather than enjoy the full dine-in experience, however I found Grays actually penalizes the customer for choosing to take food to go, by charging an extra $2.50 (often more than a standard 15% tip costs) which misleads the consumer by charging a fee that isn’t advertised within their menu (at least from the quick glance I saw online). I hope the management of this establishment chooses to remove this fee in the future, otherwise next time I’m here for business, I’ll most likely be looking elsewhere for food options. There is an abundance of restaurants in the area.
