    I was stunned by the quality of food here. The fish was light and delicate and perfectly cooked, the pasta had the perfect bite and everything was very well seasoned. The French onion soup was piping hot and cheesy. My only major critique is the cocktails need improvement, the one I had was way too sweet and very imbalanced. The food more than made up for it though. Kudos to the chefs here.

    The food was amazing and the portions were generous. I tried their lunch menu and really enjoyed my time there. The restaurant was not too crowded or noisy and the atmosphere was chill and relaxed. Most importantly the environment is comfortable and you can still hear what your friends were saying haha

    Absolutely loved everything about Petrichor Social! The Parisian vibe is spot on—elegant, cozy, and effortlessly chic. The food was divine, the music set the perfect tone, and the service was warm and attentive. Every detail, from the ambiance to the plating, was perfection. A beautiful spot for a date or a stylish catch-up with friends. Can’t wait to return!

    Be transported to the French Rivera right in the heart of Vancouver! So much to love about this sweet little spot. The little potatoes that were so perfect like little golden fried pillows. Engaging service. Lovely french table wines. We happened past for a drink at lunch, stayed all afternoon and came back for dinner the next day. Every thing was fantastic, I wish it was here in Beverly Hills. Until our next visit, Merci Beaucoup!
