I was introduced to this place a few months back and I have to say that this is one of my mew favourite places to eat! The food is flavourful and great quality and the service is impeccable. I was impressed with the new menu as some of the specials from the previous months ( which are to die for!!) are now offered regularly. As a person who enjoys vegetarian food often, I was so very impressed with the selections available (you wont just find damn mushroom risotto here!!) The variety of foods is amazing. I would highly recommend anyone or any vegetarian to try this place!!
If a friend didnt take me here I wouldnt have no idea about it. The owner is super friendly and hospitable. Restaraunt is licenced, they have great expresso as well. Very casual place, perfect for lunch. The food is to die for! I had the warm spinach salad, so good! Prices are decent.
He is planning to expand...cant wait!!!!
this place is amazing! the food is ALWAYS fresh and perfectly prepared! they have the best paninis and thin crust pizzas in vancouver! im fully addicted to this place! the owner Mo is very welcoming and quite a hottie! not only is the food incredibly tasty but it is very reasonably priced! you can also enjoy ur food on their outdoor patio..which is perfect for people watching on robson st!
We discovered this restaurant by accident, while walking along Robson. Tried a couple of appies and a glass of wine. The crispy battered prawns won us for dinner. Our grilled 7 oz New York STEAKS were done to perfection. Veggies with it were, too. We'll certainly be back and would recommend this restaurant to anyone without hesitation.

Since first having lunch here about a month ago I have become addicted to their pizza. It is simply the best thin crust in the city. Nobody else even comes close! Everything is very fresh and tasty and it's obvious to me that these guys have the upmost respect for quality. The price is also insanely reasonable. Two people can split a salad, a pizza, a bottle of wine and a dessert for $40. When I asked the owner why his prices were so cheap he told me that a quality product would bring in volume. He's right, I've been there 6 times in a month!
The service is casual and friendly but definitely "cafe style". You need to ask for more water if your glass is empty ect.
Great place to kick back and relax!!
Bottom-line I don't give out fives but Cinch is close (very close) to deserving 5's. Owner Moe has done a fine job and now the whole office is addicted to soups, grilled paninis and pizzas .... fine salads, fine coffee.. everything has that flair of extra care and attention. Busy at noon hour and not too many inside tables. Outside patio (right on the street) in the sunshine is pretty nice in the summer time too.
We read other reviews of this place and are big fans of the food called Pizza. So, hearing there was great thin crust pizza, we figured we would give it a try for lunch.
Arriving, the place was pretty full and busy, which is always nice to see. We noticed everyone having paninis - and if I do go back I will certainly try them - they all looked great! But only 1 person had a pizza box on their table, so we couldn't see a pizza beforehand.
It is not thin crust, for sure. Thicker dough and pre-cooked to boot (topping and sauce added to pre-baked dough). My husband has been in the industry for years and knew it immediately. The pizza also came too quickly so that indicated it was pre made in some fashion. The cheese is of a lesser quality, no double pressed mozzerella here, and lots of it, which is great if you dig that, and the sauce was not fresh and zesty as it should be with Italian thin crust, but more like tomato paste with some seasoning.
Service was okay (never came by to ask if all was well, and some hot sauce could have been used) By the time we had finished the place was nearly empty it still took us a long time to get our bill as the server was busy chatting and just not around. I think it's a psychological thing; when places are busy things move (both in the kitchen and the front of the house) but when it's not, it's like break time has begun.
I would go back and try a panini or perhaps their chicken breast with salad as it did look great, but if you are a thin crust pizza fan like myself, it's not what it claims to be.
