They selecting fine ingredients, explore global flavours, showcase unique cooking techniques, and engage through table-side service. These are all elements that speak to their commitment in crafting a truly distinctive dining experience in Burnaby.
Interior
The dining space is very nice and great for any occasion. They even have a private room with lots of seats if you want something more cozy and intimate for your group.
El Diablo
Start the night off with an electrifying cocktail. It has Sauza Silver Tequila, Crème de Cassis, fresh lime juice, and Ginger Ale presented with sparks of fire using cinnamon. From the name of the cocktail, you would think it would be spicy, but this was such a refreshing cocktail. We really enjoyed it.
Agua de Valencia
This yummy drink has dry English gin, fine orange liqueur and orange.
Lobster Bisque
At the centre of the bisque is a seared scallop and roe. The broth had a lot of depth and essence of the lobster. It may not look that great, but it was delicious.
Steak Tartar
This has hand minced tenderloin, miso mustard, pickled daikon quail’s egg, and gnocco fritto. Mix the ingredients together and then eat.
Steaks and Mains
Only the top percentage of Alberta Angus Reserve Beef and U.S.D.A Prime make the ATLAS cut and are selected for dishes. Sourcing from North America’s top producers, they seek out the ultimate commitment to quality and stewardship to ensure the best in marbling, tenderness, and flavour. The steaks are hand-butchered from the top breeds, hand-selected, and aged before being prepared in our mesquite-fired Josper oven.
Chili Ribbed Cowboy Rib Steak
With got the steak done medium rare without the chili rub. The steak was very tender and it was 16oz, so it wasn’t small at all.
There were some leftovers, but we were happy to have it for another meal.
Tomahawk Pork Chop
This has snake river farms kurobuta pork chop, smoked pork belly and apple relish with warm potato salad. It was suggested that we order this as medium. This was recommended by the staff and it was also tender and delicious. We enjoyed the pairing of the apple relish on top.
Whipped Brie Mashed Potato
We got this on the side to share and it was so smooth and fluffy. Who knew brie and mashed potatoes would be so good together. Highly recommended.
Roasted Wild Mushrooms
Ultimate savoury side dish to share for the table. I enjoyed the variety of mushrooms in this. Another winner.
Salted Caramel Creme Brulee
It comes in a mason jar with the torched sugar on top. It is served with chocolate dipped biscotti. A good comforting classic dessert.
Baked Alaska
If you’re looking for something unique, try the baked Alaska that is flambed tableside. How cool is that? It’s a dinner and a little show.
The layers are made of raspberry coconut ice cream, lemon sorbet, orange vanilla cake, and italian meringue.
Final Thoughts
Overall, we enjoyed the experience and it’s something that Burnaby is lacking. They bring some exciting dishes that aren’t easy to find in the area. I would recommend Atlas for intimate dinners for special occasions.
