    We got Hugo spritz, negroni, campri classico. The Hugo spritz was not bad. Negroni was strong which i liked The crostini we had was quite disappointing. The bread was crunchy but the beef tartare was quite bad. The ricotta did not taste like ricotta at all but instead tasted like beans. Would not come back again

    Margarita, Almafi Sour

    A little bar we stopped by after dinner. With there not being that many people when we arrived, we sat at the bar as soon as we walked in. The restaurant itself was dimly lit so it gave it a very lowkey, mysterious vibe. There is only one big table for a group of 4+ people other than that they have the bar and smaller booths. We just grabbed a quick drink, I ordered the Almafi Sour and it was really good!

    Came for late night dinner with our party of 4. The place was still hoping on a holiday Sunday. We ordered Wagu Tatar crostino and tuna crudo crostino to start. They are bite size so the server suggested to order one of each per person. Good thing we did as I can have 4 of the wagu crostino myself. It was delish. We ordered 3 mains to share since it was late and we didn't want to be too full. We had the daily pasta which was bucatini with bolognese sauce and shavings of pine mushrooms. Very intense flavour. Then followed by the smoke eggplant stuffed with olive tapenade. Nice smoky flavour that came through. We finished with the bison striploin. It was a very satisfying meal indeed

    Came here during the Dine Out festival in January 2025 with a friend. Everything from the food, ambiance, and service were amazing. My favourite dish was definitely the wagyu crostini - it's smoky and rich, but also perfectly balanced. The menu changes regularly so I'll definitely visit again :)

    Wow it's been a hot minute since i had such delicious italian food. This experience hit all the right spots and really left my taste palette mesmerized. I never knew i'd like sourdough bread so much accompanying so many of my dishes But wooo if you do like to drink, that Almafi Sour is a must!! That wildflower empress gin really wows you!! That featured pasta of the day wasn't so much of a huge hit for me. The noodles itself semi tasted partially undercooked? Texture wasn't all that consistent .. parts of it were kinda hard. But aside from that the shrimp went well really nicely ... not too sure if $34 for the pasta was really worth it though. Prices are a bit of a splurge i'd say but definitely worth experiencing. service was amazing and be sure to make reservations ... the ambiance was really lively! dim but energetic with high energy people and really good taste in music. Perfect place for drinks after work or date night .. oo they do have happy hour too. Website mentions everything

    Buratta and waygu crostinis

    Great happy hour times on Saturday!! I came here with my partner just when happy hour started. The staff was so friendly and accommodating - service was great. Plan for max group of 4, spacing appeared quite small at the restaurant, unless you like to get cozy! There's also outdoor seating outside on the street. We were non-stop inhaling the crostinis. Our favourites were the wagyu and buratta crostinis. Will definitely come again!

    Been meaning to try this restaurant as I've tried their sister restaurant, Published on Main. Came here with a party of four and decided on the tasting menu. The restaurant, a dim light narrow restaurant. Whatever they were cooking in the kitchen you can smell it. The fumes irritated some of the girls eyes. Service was great when they brought out the food, however in between such as refilling our drinks could have been better. My favourite dishes of the night, the corsitinis + the pasta dish which I cannot remember the ooo name. The other pasta dish with the rabbit was overly salty. We did not finish the dish. I am happy I was able to try this restaurant. But I rather eat at Published on Main.

    Trendy little tapas/bar place on commerical drive. $10 happy hour cocktails were nice, especially their sours. I think it's a great place for a cute drink with a friend, but keep in mind that they're often booked in advance, so secure a reservation. Good service.

    Happy hour menu is good! Server was extremely personable and took a shot with us. Espresso Martini was frothed well

    We had an amazing time dining here at this restaurant. The food was unreal and the service was amazing. Definitely recommend checking out this awesome spot. We will be back again!

    Our server brian was delightful! Loved his vibe and he gave complimentary bread with our drinks. The bar had a very cool bar interior. Come in on Thursday for their discounted spritz!

    The highlight of the night was the mushroom and rabbit pasta (albeit slightly over-salted). Everything else fell a bit short for us, including the service. We tried to order more food and drinks but couldn't catch our server's attention every time he passed by. We had to catch a movie afterwards so ended up not ordering more due to time constraints. We also tried the salmon rillette and wagyu beef crostinis. At $7 a pop, these were pretty pricey for what it was worth. The roe on the salmon crostini was nice and fresh, however the rillette felt like I was eating canned salmon. The waygu beef was nice but the smokiness overpowered it. We also tried the meatballs - the meatballs were great! However, the sauce fell a bit short for me and gave me Campbell's tomato soup feels. Love the decor, ambiance and atmosphere - a very trendy addition to Commercial Drive. Unfortunately there are some better options along the Drive that offer better value and service.

    Complimentary bread!!

    Server was such a vibe! Gave us complimentary bread to go with our drinks and made us feel so welcomed and fast service

    Super cool vibe, great organic wines, in a great location…read more The staff was super friendly and provided locals insight on what to do in Vancouver

    Okay, I am officially a huge fan of Juice Bar. After visiting Vancouver recently, my friends and I…read moremade several stops here to enjoy the vibes, interesting wine selections, and the great patio. Juice Bar is open in the evening only, since the space is shared with a café during the daytime. The team is very welcoming even when you arrive early, which is rare for most restaurants. Once you receive your table number for at-the-counter ordering, go inside to chat with the servers. The incredible selection of local and international natural wines blew me away. I was incredibly grateful to try a B.C.-based Lambrusco, which was perfect for the cooler summer temperatures on the shaded patio. The food options are limited, which I prefer, so I would recommend ordering a few of these. The restrooms are easy to find and are very clean, and transportation to and from the bar is easy. Cycling routes are right off the patio, Ubering is simple, and walking is easy. On my second venture to Juice Bar, we had some pretty sad interactions with one of the female-presenting staff. She raised her voice at us multiple times when she wanted us to listen to their directions, and they also treated a few groups poorly. At one point, they came outside and were quite rude to a parking enforcement officer - when it seemed to be the Juice Bar person's fault. At the end of my experience, this person once again raised their voice with our group, demanding we leave the tight indoor space if we were finished - but we were hoping to ask a few more questions to the team. Instead, we left disappointed. My experience here was great, but this staff member should probably take advantage of some self-care or personal skills workshops. Or, just chill and have fun! Hopefully, it was just a bad day for them when we visited. I would typically take more stars off for this interaction, but the rest of the experiences were excellent. We will be sad to see this place leave at the end of September, but I look forward to returning when the space grows up into what comes next!
