Tapenade had long been my favourite Richmond higher end restaurant but it has slipped under new ownership. The food is still good, but no more linen and silverware and a seriously less elegant or refined menu. They used to have a real chef but this is no longer in evidence. OK for a burger or grilled salmon but now disappointingly... More 

Tapenade Bistro ‘Simple yet Elegant’ Steveston Village, Richmond BC, Canada In the lively village of Steveston BC, there is a wide choise of restaurants, specially on the seafront overlooking the harbour and the south arm of the Fraser river. Just a few meters away from the tourist crowds you will find the Tapenade Bistro. The secluded natural setting of the... More 

This restaurant is sitting on the main street of Steveston and has a nice outdoor patio. I had not been to this place for awhile, and I was not really satisfied with the food or service last time, but thought I would give it another try. The service was indeed not very good again! Different staff but the same sort... More 

This restaurant has fallen a long way from its original standard. It has a great location and good patio but the menue is limited and expensive. Your bill can creep up on you in no time and at the end you feel you've paid good money for mediocre quality. My chefs meat balls served on a piping hot cast iron... More 

My wife and I had dinner with another couple at Tapanade Bistro during a recent visit to Vancouver. It was a sunny, cool July evening. Dinner on an outside patio across from the fishing pier in Steveston seemed like the perfect place for a Friday evening dinner. Mistake! Should have paid closer attention to some of the recent review on... More 

What more can u ask for? I always go back to the same restaurant when I am at Fisherman Wharf. If you go there before five, you can also enjoy the happy hour price for food too besides the drink. All the dishes we have ordered are good. Reasonable price.

I used to love this restaurant~ Now it is really poor (and this is being generous). The service was terrible, the food was poor quality for the price, and the dessert (fruit cobbler) was made in the microwave~not at all the same quality as with the previous ownership.

I have eaten here many times in the past and was never disappointed. However since the ownership change, I have been here 3 times and have yet to have a decent meal. The servers (or those that are left) are now very casually dressed, yet prices remain high.As other reviewers have stated this place is having an identity crisis, and... More 

Since under new ownership Tapenade is NOT the restaurant it used to be - it has gone casual with fine dining prices. Service is still good but find the food is just OK - had a hamburger that was so dry had to ask for ketchup to moisten it up. I wanted a cappuccino after only to discover they have... More
