"One of the best French restaurants in the city."

Business: A marriage of classic French cuisine and the gastronomic identity and culture of Québec.

4worldlovers: Though it seems like it has taken its time to arrive this year, spring is upon us. It’s the most inspiring time of year for a chef. Our cooking moves with the seasons: after a long winter working with root vegetables and preserves, the appearance of tender, green, fresh and flavourful vegetables is more than welcome. For our spring menu we’re working closely with B.C. farmers and purveyors to bring the best local products available into the restaurant.

A heartfelt homage to Chef/Owner Jean-Christophe (J-C) Poirier’s heritage, formative years in Quebec and early experience in renowned Montréal restaurants, St. Lawrence offers a marriage of classic French cuisine and the gastronomic identity and culture of Les Québécois.

French spirits serve as the backbone of classic and signature cocktails, while the French focused wine list offers the perfect complement to Chef Poirier’s rustic, signature haute country cooking and underscores the fact that at St. Lawrence, simplicity is the ultimate form of sophistication.

At its heart, St. Lawrence showcases time-honoured traditions in an elevated-yet-approachable space where food, drink and atmosphere combine for a transportive dining experience unlike any other.

One of the most celebrated restaurants in Canada, St. Lawrence was proudly awarded One Star by the Michelin Guide in 2022. The restaurant received a series of other recognitions this year, including Restaurant of the Year and Best Upscale by the Vancouver Magazine Restaurant Awards, 'Top 3' Placement in Canada’s 100 Best Restaurants, and inclusion on the World’s 50 Best Discovery List.

Previous accolades include: No. 4 on enRoute magazine’s 2018 list of Canada’s Best New Restaurants; Vancouver Magazine awards for Best New Restaurant (2018), Restaurant of the Year (2018 and ’19), Chef of the Year (2019), Best Gastown and Best French (2019 and ’20); consecutive top-five spots on the prestigious annual ranking of Canada’s 100 Best Restaurants (No. 5 in 2019, No. 2 in ’20, No. 3 in ‘22); and recognition as one of Monocle Magazine’s 50 Favourite Restaurants in the World in 2019.


Originally from Quebec, J-C has been a fixture on the Canadian culinary scene for more than 25 years. After voyaging west in 2004 and helming kitchens at a number of notable Vancouver restaurants he launched passion project St. Lawrence in 2017, where he indulges his razor-sharp focus, dedication to craft, and affinity for time-honoured traditions.

I was craving a sandwich and stumbled across TORN on Uber Eats. This sandwich is SO AMAZING! I literally cannot recommend this enough. I tried the “chicken” sandwich and it topped my expectations. The truffle smell, the crunchy bread (even after I left it for a few hours), and the veggies were just perfect! I cannot wait to try all the other sandwiches. It is fresh, delicious, and reminds me so much of France as it is just of such great quality. There is truly nothing like it in Vancouver! If you have the chance to try it I really hope you do as you will LOVE it!
