I love the vibe of Cactus Club Vancouver. It is a restaurant that doubles as a lounge in the evenings. The bar section (in the second photo) is great for meeting up with collegues after work for a drink and to chat, the rest of the restaurant is great for getting together with friends for a bite. The atmosphere is a step up from casual if you go at night and eat indoors. If you go during the day though, it has a business casual feel to it. They play upbeat music in the evenings inside which can be a bit loud if you are trying to have an intimate conversation or energizing when hanging out, depends on how you look at it. I was recently introduced to this place and I will be going back time and time again.
