Joe Fortes Seafood & Chop House Vancouver Downtown Storefront Review
This is the storefront of the Joe Fortes restaurant. They have two levels so it is quite a large restaurant.
Joe Fortes Seafood & Chop House Happy Hour Menu & Prices Review
This is the Joe Fortes Happy Hour menu. It is available everyday from 3-5pm. We recommend making a reservation online as it does get busy even during happy hour. For the food, they are essentially small appetizer snacks. The fresh shucked oysters at $2 each is not bad considering they open it for you too!
Joe Fortes Seafood & Chop House Miso Glazed Short Ribs (Price: $14 each)
The Joe Fortes Seafood & Chop House Miso Glazed Short Ribs happy hour price is $14. This portion is super tiny and you only get three very thin slices of beef ribs. The sauces were not bad but this is pretty expensive even for happy hour. This was by far the worst happy hour item on the menu for the price that you pay.
Joe Fortes Seafood & Chop House Crab & Corn Fritters (Price: $11 each)
The Joe Fortes Seafood & Chop House Crab & Corn Fritters happy hour price is $11. The portion size was ok as there are four deep fried pieces. There’s crab, corn and flour inside these little balls. It is served with a mayo style sauce and a lemon wedge. This taste not bad but not a super outstanding item either.
Joe Fortes Seafood & Chop House Crispy Calamari (Price: $10 each)
The Joe Fortes Seafood & Chop House Crispy Calamari happy hour price is $10. The portion size is not bad. It is served with a spicy mayo and a lemon wedge. The crispy calamari taste pretty good as they were quite crispy. Not a bad happy hour item.
Joe Fortes Seafood & Chop House Mini Lobster & Shrimp Roll (Price: $12 each)
The Joe Fortes Seafood & Chop House Mini Lobster & Shrimp Roll happy hour price is $12. You get one small size sandwich. There’s two pickles at the top too. A decent amount of shrimp and lobster meat was inside the dressing. This taste not bad. However, at $12, its not exactly a cheap or good deal for happy hour either.
Overall, Joe Fortes Happy Hour doesn’t seem to be really a deal. They basically pro-rated the normal portion size to based on how much they are charging for the happy hour. In a lot of other restaurants, happy hour appetizers are usually the same portion as the regular hours appetizers. But here, they cut it quite a bit for happy hour. In addition, the minimum default tip is 18%. Normally, it should only be 15% so its quite high. This is an expensive restaurant and the happy hour is not bad for the food. However, price wise, its not really that good value.
Joe Fortes Seafood & Chop House Vancouver Downtown Address & Location
Joe Fortes Seafood & Chop House is located at 777 Thurlow St, Vancouver, BC V6E 3V5. There is paid street parking. However, it can be difficult to find parking in downtown Vancouver. There is the nearby Burrard Skytrain Station so you can probably take the Skytrain to downtown too.
