Lombardo's is a cozy family restaurant with an authentic Italian ambience and the food is awesome. It may well still be the best pizza in Vancouver despite the neapolitan pizza craze that has recently hit Vancouver. Lombardo's is always my favourite and always fantastic. Pizzas, whether veggie or meat are mouth-wateringly good and wines are consistently excellent. If you haven't tried it before, the stracciatella soup makes a wonderful starter, with a pizza or (home-made) pasta to follow. Salads are also delicious.. Just thinking about it makes me want to go in right now. Great for family dinners out, a meal out by oneself or a romantic hide-away date. Amazing home-made tiramisu. Service is always friendly and attentive, I don't agree with the previous comments but then again Vancouver is quite precious about service and loves to complain (I find). Relax Italian style and enjoy a great atmosphere - especially on a bustling Thursday, Friday, Saturday or Sunday night!
The Topanga Cafe is awesome. I was introduced to it through my husband who has been enjoying dinners there with his family since childhood. The service is so friendly and the food is delicious. Recommendations (especially if you are veggie): the enchilada with eggplant and beans and a Dos Equis. For dessert: their famous chocolate cake. Warm staff and atmosphere and wonderful comfort food.
I love this restaurant! Sit out on the patio on a hot day and have a Li Pecuri and a Moretti or inside in winter and enjoy a heart-warming pasta and a glass of wine.. The atmosphere is upbeat and fun and the place has great character. Desserts: to die for.
Liberty Bakery is a charming place with excellent food and treats. I love to have a bowl of black bean with lime soup there on a rainy day or a capers, roasted red peppers, loves and feta sandwich with some lemonade on a hot day. Cookies, cakes, pastries and coffees are amazing. Great service and character. I love this place.
