Monarca · Restaurant · Vancouver
Gastown fine dining with premium steak and fresh seafood, turning into a late-night supper club.
Monarca is Gastown's fine-dining supper club, a modern steak-and-seafood room at 181 Carrall Street where the kitchen is the headline act before the night turns. The cooking is premium and built for sharing: tomahawk, striploin, and skirt cuts off the grill, plates of salmon, tuna, scallops, and prawns, and Latin-inflected dishes like guajillo mole and hand-pressed tacos that give the menu its own accent. It is the kind of table where a group orders wide and lingers.
The room sets the tone. Dim lighting, textured jungle-inspired design, and a low, moody warmth make it read intimate for a date and generous for a celebration. Service runs to the upscale end of Gastown, and the wine and cocktail programs are built to match the food.
Reservations for dinner run through OpenTable. The dining room is closed Monday and Tuesday; Wednesday and Sunday run 5 PM to 11 PM for a calmer, food-first evening, and Thursday through Saturday stretch from 5 PM into the early morning as dinner turns into the supper club's later hours.
