Joey in Burnaby

Joey Burnaby on Urbanspoon

Huge restaurant on Lougheed Highway near Brentwood Mall. The interior seems like a Yaletown-ish look with a mix of vintage decor but modern, slick look. The staff here looks like they could be models. The higher-end look is also reflected in the price of the dishes.

It was a group of us, and we ordered dishes to share, as well as our own main dish. I ordered the Chicken Fettuccine Alfredo $18 with garlic, cream, nutmeg, arugula, shaved Grana Padano. It was really good and filling.

Since it was the first time going there, I left the others decide the other dishes.

The Japanese Gyoza $11.50, pork dumplings with hot mustard was presented very well and tasted good too.

The Szechuan Edamame $8.25 (wok tossed with chilies, garlic, soy sauce) was interesting mix of Japanese food and Chinese flavour. It was quite addictive, lol. Though I thought I’d never pay $8.25 for a bowl of edamame.

I don’t think I would have ordered it if it were coming out of my own pocket.

The bathroom was fancy with really high walls and heavy wooden doors. The decor in the hallways were neat and modern classy. They have free valet parking, and they’ll also vacuum the inside too!
I quite enjoyed the dining experience. I have since gone back once and had a salad with friends, but will need to go back to try out more! :D
