Experience refined Italian dining at Il Caminetto, where fresh local ingredients shine in every dish and an extensive wine list enhances the vibrant atmosphere.
"Tackle an Italian feast with crispy wagyu meatballs, nonna-approved pasta Bolognese, and grilled octopus paired with a nduja sofrito."
"After coming under new ownership, Il Caminetto, a classic Italian restaurant, underwent a renovation and reopened in December 2017. Not only is the look airier and more contemporary than it was before, but the new celebrity chef James Walt, formerly of Whistler’s Araxi, the renowned Sooke Harbour House, and Vancouver’s Blue Water Café, has shifted the focus to a lighter-style cuisine. Standouts include warm olives served with almonds, citrus, chilies, and herbs, and wild mushroom risotto with parm and truffle. You can’t go wrong with any of the pastas, which are made in-house every day. Desserts tend toward the unfussy." - Liz Humphreys
