NICLI ANTICA PIZZERIA REVIEWS

This is a great place to eat if you like wood fired Neapolitan pizza. We sat outside because the weather was nice, but the have indoor seating too. The place is nice and they keep it clean too. We ordered the margherita pizza which was great, although the really skimped on the basil. More Basil would have been wonderful. We also ordered the Rucola e. Finocchio salad which was delicious. The service was good too, although it took a while for them to greet us. Once they did the server was nice and helpful. We give this place a thumbs up.

We thought we had good pizza before but the pizza here is on a whole different level. We ordered Il Bastardo Pizza, Kids Pizza, and a simple Pepperoni Pizza. All pizzas were amazing especially the Il Bastardo. I never thought I would like a pizza without tomato sauce. This is the best pizza I've ever had. The bread was to die for.

Ahh I love this place so much. Like this location the staff are so chill and each of them have such dope personalities. Love the vibes here. Some 60s hits on the stereo when we were here. Thx guys for the excellent lunch time.

BUFALA EDGEMONT REVIEWS

A neighborhood Italian restaurant in Edgemont Village - great service and delicious meatballs, pizza and pasta. Reasonably priced, decent portions and delicious food. We enjoyed everything we had. Great for groups, dates and happy hour. We recommend this local spot for a nice dinner with friends and family. To the owners: You nailed the Dine Out experience compared to 90% of the restaurants. Great options, great value on the menu, incredible experience with no pressure to choose dine out or the regular menu.

We brought a promo from Travel Zoo. $75 for 2 of us! We didn't realize they want a 48hr heads up for the promo, but they accommodated us:) This was out first visit and I want to come back when it's nice and try out the patio! Parking: Parking lot access is around the back of the building.

One of the best meals we’ve had in a long time! It was Dine Out Vancouver time so the prices were exceptionally reasonable. Great food and friendly service. The lighting is perfect.

ORTO ARTISAN PASTA REVIEWS

Lovely little locally owned restaurant with delicious food. I had the goat cheese and spinach omelet, which was topped with fresh herbs and parmesan and came with a lovely salad and locally made bread. My partner had a pasta special with scallops and asparagus and fresh herbs and butter, we both loved our dishes! The people working here were all very friendly and welcoming, highly recommend.

As always, an exceptional evening in every way. The food, the service, the atmosphere. Simply the best restaurant on the North Shore! The squid ink spaghetti’s was delicious and I cannot recall the last time I had such a fantastic Caesar salad. On a nice day be sure to have a table in the garden.

Food was outstanding ! Quaint fresh family cooking! Ricotta gnocchi out of this world. Michael our waiter was great. Rigatoni with sausage and arugula pear salad.
