Subjects loyal to "Vancouver's prince of pasta", Pino Posteraro, "stare in amazement" at the open kitchen at this Yaletown Italian–Med while savouring the mix of "creative and traditional" plates that issues from it; "outstanding" wines, "exceptional" (some say "a bit pretentious") service and a "lovely" earth-toned dining room, plus a more casual enoteca next door, add to the pleasure, so... more
Consistency is underrated in our fad-happy age. This Yaletown room has been the gold standard for more than 10 years.

An expensive night out...

Excellent selection of Italian inspired food. I had the ox tail ravioli and they were amazing. The patio setting is wonderful for a summer evening dinner. Great service, attentive, friendly and helpful.
If you want good food, you must go to Cioppinos.Being a doctor I travel all over the world and dine in many places, Cioppinos is definitely world class.If you want good food ask Pino to give you an explosion of flavors, he can do it.
