Ok, I understand there is a new owner and chef but we have gone here every time we visit Vancouver. The service and the meal we had last night was awesome. The fish was cooked perfectly, and the entire dish was a product of an expert chef! This place is the gem of the West End, don't miss it.

This place has excellent Italian food and a lovely patio. I recommend booking reservations if you want to sit outside.

I took my Mom here for dinner last Friday evening, some time to unwind after a long work week with one of my favourite people. The room is beautiful, the staff welcoming and accommodating. When we were having a bit of difficulty conversing over the music (very good music, at that) someone came over and volunteered to lower the volume adjacent to where we were. We ordered several items off the menu and each met or exceeded expectations (the brodo enveloping the duck tortellini was a standout among delicious dishes). Frankie, our waiter, recommended a perfectly paired wine, and service throughout was impeccable. Cannot wait to go back.

I'm changing my rating from four stars to two. There are new owners and when they took over, all the staff left. The menu has changed and they no longer offer martinis, which is strange because we were told by several staff the new owners want to bring back a Delilah's​ vibe. Service was not great. Antipasti was inedible. The rest of the food was just OK. Overall a real shame. Really too bad about the staff. They were the best. I will really miss the tall waiter, Gavin. I wish I knew where he works now. I would like to eat there.

It is a hidden gem in the heart of the West End. The restaurant has been beautifully renovated. Bar and wait staff provide excellent service, they enjoy what they do. The restaurant also has an outdoor patio space, it's perfect in warmer days to sip wine and visit with friends. To call it a patio is actually unfair, it's a pretty garden. This restaurant is where locals eat, I highly recommend.

Best service, ever! We came for happy hour drinks and stayed because our server, Fatune. She was amazing and went over and above for us at every turn. Bonus: they have heaters and blankets on the patio so no need to worry if you're not sure about the weather, just sit on that patio.

I’ve been here many times and the best I can say for the restaurant is that it really does have one of the best patios in town. That being said, the food has never been impressive. It is often overcooked, underseasoned, and very overpriced for what you get. There are few restaurants I can go to, spend $50 on food, and leave hungry, but this is one of them. In addition to that, service can be very slow and disorganized. You have to wonder if their turnover is super high. I will give them a shoutout on their cocktails, which are generally excellent.

I hadn't been since management changed. The food used to be good. Our waitress was inappropriate with her conversation and her hovering, more interested in hearing snippets of our conversation and removing the napkins while we were still chatting than doing her job. How I'm being served is as important as the food. Will I go back? NO! Will my guest go back? NO! The place used to be busy but after the evening I'm not surprised the place was empty.
