21 Best Restaurants in Vancouver
"The room is cozy, with black and white checkerboard floors and modest wood paneling—no modernist black walnut millwork here, folks. But the interior, executed by local luminary restaurant designer Craig Stanghetta, is not meant to be a hifalutin dining experience. As the decor suggests, this is comfort food, but the classics are innovative. The restaurant is owned by Kitchen Table Restaurants, which operates a number of beloved, award-winning spots in Vancouver, including MICHELIN Recommended Carlino and Bacaro. Appetizers range from meatballs; burrata with seasonal vegetables; and arugula and fennel salad to fried cauliflower and chickpeas, while entrées comprise pastas like pappardelle and duck ragu and risotto with porcini mushrooms (all pasta is freshly made in house.) For dessert? The choices are limited to three, but the delicate olive oil cake is a must." - Guy Saddy, Nicole Schnitzler
