"Food is definitely for sharing, although ironically, I found it wasn't good for big groups. They have a minimum amount spent of about $30 per person irregardless of people showing up or not. They require you to have the final number in your group 72 hours prior to your reservation. If not everyone in your party shows up, you will be given a gift card in the amount of the difference between your current bill and what it would've been if the whole group showed up. The place is small, and seating is scheduled, seats need to be filled somehow, hence, the minimum spend. Consider this a fair warning.
Otherwise, it was good fun painting after having some wine. This would be a perfect spot for a first date."

"Raw Canvas was the highlight of our weekend in Vancouver. If you are looking for a fun, lively, spot where you can actually CREATE rather than just consume, Raw Canvas is it!"

"If you've never been, go at least once! Painting your own canvas is a very different take on the concept of "dining" but a very worthwhile one to try at least once!"

"Went here for Dine Out Vancouver 2013 deal. It was a great experience. A different type of date night and the food and wine was great! :)We went as a group of four and they had our reservations ready for us right when we got there! Great, quick service and being able to bring out our artistic side was super fun too! We're not super artistic like some of the other people that were there but it was still a fun time!"

"Second time there, had a great time. The artist could have been a bit more helpful or interactive, but I think it would be hard to find the right balance. Food was great, and so was the service. Vanilla bean gelato with port stole the show."
