The Arbutus Room
A Culinary Journey Rooted in Respect and Collaboration
The Arbutus Room is an adults-only (16+) dining experience.*
We humbly and gratefully operate our business on unsurrendered and sacred land of the W̱SÁNEĆ peoples.
The Arbutus Room culinary program is lead by Executive Chef Matt Cusano with Sous Chef Ross Mando.
“Instead of ‘Either, Or’ we can make it ‘And and With’.
We can move mountains when we figure out how to work with one another rather than against one another.” Kathi Camilleri
