Vancouver’s Best Upscale Restaurant 2014: Hawksworth Restaurant

The Vancouver Magazine judging panel recognized that:“Not only has Hawksworth’s kitchen maintained supremely high standards, the brigade has been relentless in sharpening and refining every dish. Flavours from Chinese, Indian and Japanese cuisine are incorporated with a delicious ease and confidence… As a result the food, free of flash and fashion, is better than ever.”

In the Best Downtown category, Hawksworth Cocktail Bar received considerable recognition, tipping Head Bartender Cooper Tardivel for his “inventive, thoughtful retro cocktails like the Income Tax (c.1926) and a plate of the more-ish Korean Fried Cauliflower… won’t break the bank but will send your Tuesday night into overdrive.”

General Manager Chad Clark added, “Our incredible staff is the anchor to the continued success of our restaurant and I extend my personal thanks to the entire team, in particular Denisa Johnova who was acknowledged in the Premier Crew category.”

Held at the Sheraton Wall Centre yesterday evening, these 25th Anniversary Vancouver Magazine Awards reinforce Hawksworth Restaurant’s position as Vancouver’s leading dining venue and are a tremendous measurement of success for the team.
