Convenient Yaletown location, we visited on a Sunday night and had no problem finding parking. Our group enjoyed a corner table tucked away with just the right amount of privacy. We were all warmly greeted and seated, asked if we need anything right away. I've been to this location in the Opus Hotel many times over the years under different names, I think the ambiance and decor have the right touch for a pizza/pasta wine bar vibe. Our group ordered pizzas and pasta, all were good and arrived quickly. Service was solid, friendly and warm. The food prices are reasonable and the portions are substantial. I would visit again.

Sunrise and The Royal Spritz

The pizza here is exactly how it should be, amazing!! The crust is PERFFFFECTT. Their classic pepperoni is made with cup pepperoni which makes it crispier and a little bit greasier. The salad was great! Full of bold flavor and a great dressing. The drinks are tasty and strong. The service was great, our waiter wasn't pushy and gave us plenty of time to finish our drinks. The restaurant itself is really nice, especially on a warm day when everything is opened up. All in all, the food is great, you can't go wrong.

Located inside/part of Opus Hotel. Only had breakfast since we were in Vancouver for a short 2-day trip. Space seemed majestic yet calm and beautifully balanced with photos and artwork on the walls. Service was great. Tasty breakfast food. The iced latte was delicious, which was unexpected.

A great option for Italian food in the area, particularly for drinks and antipasti. We started with the Burrata and Prosciutto di Parma with Gnocco Fritto. This dish was the standout of the meal. The gnocco fritto (fried dough with Parmesan) was a delicious surprise--crispy, savory, and something I hadn't tried before. The prosciutto and burrata were fresh and flavorful. The burrata was creamy, drizzled with balsamic vinegar, olive oil, and seasoned with s bit of salt and pepper - simple but perfect, which is exactly what Italian cooking is! The pickled onions added a nice zing to the dish. 10/10--absolutely loved it! We also shared the Hot, Hot, Hot Pizza, which was also excellent. It had the perfect level of spice without being overwhelming. The mozzarella was freshly grated on top, and the tomato-based sauce had a bit of spice to it as well, very yummy! While it's not my *absolute* favorite pizza in the city, it's certainly a solid choice with quality, fresh ingredients. We also had a few cocktails that were great. It's worth noting that they have limoncello and a few other flavors, I believe they are made in house. The restaurant has a modern vibe, with part of the dining area adjacent to open-air windows, giving it a light and airy feel. They also have outdoor seating when the weather allows. The service was also great, friendly and attentive throughout the meal. I was throughly impressed by this hotel restaurant; it exceeded my expectations. I'll definitely be back!

The pasta

The food was great and the ambience as if on a side street bistro in Milan .. we had two pasta dishes , a rigatoni and a cannoili and two pizzas and a exquisite Tuscan fried chicken toped off with a tiramisu .Prego

Came here with a friend for brunch since we were in Yaletown. Really like the venue and ambience. There was a small outdoor seating, the lounge, or dining room area. Tables were nicely spread out from each other. We chose the dining room area with a great view of the outdoors. My friend had the nicoise salad while I had the egg's benny. The salad was good and the egg's benny was done a bit differently. Both were great, but did not stand out for me.

Headline: Above average Italian food in a somewhat confused space in an excellent location. It's a giant space, when you enter there's tons of room and different areas (lounge, bar, dining). It has the feel of a fine dining experience but then there's flat screens everywhere which really distracts from the vibe. Is it fine dining? Is it a sports bar? It feels like they got a great location and are trying to capture every type of customer. That said, the food was really good and we loved the service.

After receiving a kind of reception from Craffles up the street that would deter any appetite, we decided to ditch it and go else where. We literally stumbled on CAPO...and they had brunch.....ok here we go. As we walked in I noticed a warm and excited smile from the hostess and the place smelled like Jasmine flowers....it was so lovely first thing in the morning, and to our relief the place was shining it was that clean...like you know....someone had cleaned it the night before closing...something that apparently and sadly is going out of style these days....anyhoo.....moving on.... What can I say....it was eggs and bacon and they were cooked perfectly. How can you get eggs wrong?....oh you can.... We asked for extra crispy bacon and that shit was so good that I almost ordered an extra side of it. The West Coast Salmon also was cooked beautifully....the whole thing. Just try it. So, having grown up in Switzerland I know my ROSTI and these guys brought that back for me that morning. I can still taste the butter and the crisp with the gently graded potatoes without any grease.....oh yeah. The service was one of the best I've had in a while. All three ladies were professional, friendly, attentive and just great. Oh...you'll see me again.

Gnocco fritto
Amanda R.

Made a happy hour stop here while in Vancouver. I was so excited they had a variety of spritz's. I got a limoncello one and my husband got and orangecello one. I wish mine had had a stronger lemon flavor. We also grabbed some snacks - olives and gnocco fritto. The gnocco were delish - fluffy, fried pastry pillows! I'd go back for them in second! Not a bad stop for happy hour in Vancouver

Dough bites
Sonia C.

Wanted to try a new place and came to Capo & the Spritz. Ambience was nice and it was busy. However the food was quite disappointing. Everything was lacking in flavour and it's definitely not authentic Italian. It was also pricey for the quality of the food, although portions were decent in size. Would come here more for drinks and snacks rather than a full meal

Tia Y.

We celebrated NYE and enjoyed dinner and breakfast here. Both times, service was wonderful and food came out quickly. We thoroughly enjoyed our dinner and breakfast. You can't go wrong with anything on the menu. The breakfast potatoes were unique and we are trying to figure out how to make them for ourselves! Great location and the beautifully decorated restaurant.

The fried garlic bread with Parmesan and bomba sauce. DIVINE.
Veronica V.

We come here once in a while for snacks. The service is always friendly and chill, and there's always room for people. I usually order their pizzas, but tried their fried garlic bread with bomba sauce, which was INSANELY delicious. I will go back just for that! Their autostrada meatballs were... ok. Nothing special. I tried their Cacio e Pepe and wow, it was so bad I couldn't even eat it. Ever have a picky 5 year old that will only eat boiled noodles with a bit of butter and just the barest sprinkle of cheese? Well, that's what this is, but they charge you something like $24 for this watery pasta that might at best have a tiny bit of pecorino in it. Our excellent server took it off the bill. To compete with Cactus Club across the street with their 50% off bottles on Tuesdays, they also had that option, so we went big on a lovely bottle of wine. While the meatballs and abysmal pasta were disappointing, I still really enjoyed my time and will go back because the service was stellar, the vibe is great (not too busy, and very friendly), their fried garlic bread is fantastic and the 50% off wine special is awesome.

Squid Caponata $10. nice appy
Lindsey D.

The amazing reviews made me stop by. Strolled in with no reservations and was hoping for a fest, and it was "um" the rest of the meal. I got my pick, and I choose my seat near the entrance of the kitchen. I had to ask for my water and asked another staff for my server, every asking is another asking for my server. Which resulted to allot chains to actually get one task done. All I can recall from this visit was, tons of asking, allot ice in my drink, and allot of dough. Aperol Spritz $6 On the positive it was in nice glassware, presentation is nice, tons of ice, but tasted like nothing. Coca Cola $4 each glass Served in a mini stemless wine glass with 70% ice and filled up to the 89% level. 4 sips. 1 sip is $1. I had a "refill" that I asked for in the middle of my meal and came at the end for another $4 charge. They keep it classy here by not telling you. I did mention this when she asked while paying what I thought of the meal and I told her "anyone ever mention how tiny the colas are served in". She laughed. Fried Dough with sauce $5 Supposedly, this was suppose to have the mild taste of cheese. I couldn't even detect salt in it. The sauce was a little spicy, with lack of flavour. The presentation was nice. pass. Rebel Pizza $12 The crust/ dough was lovely, the middle was soggy. I wasn't even able to pick it up and fold it. It disinagrated into the plate. It was a hot mess. I liked how they sliced the juicy pineapple so thin that it bled. For the size, it's too much for one person and it's better as a shared item. Capo Sauce $1. Best add on ever! This is their house made "ranch". I wished it was listed somewhere.... Squid Caponata $12 Beans were really nice, squid was soft. This is enough for 1-2 ppl. The fried sage didn't taste like anything... which is weird bc I hate sage. The sauce was oily and light, wish they added some tomato paste then it'd be almost an A. Starter of the Day "Fried Rice Ball with mushroom and cheese" $5 I'll pass, flavourless again. Mushroom was too tiny and where is the punch of cheese if one serving is one ball? Overall, Known for their beautiful glassware, with tons of ice in signature drinks. Fully staffed but not all trained to assist. My server was overworked, but it was frustrating to watch from where I was seated, Im also frustrated for me as I tried to get assistance. Not the best first impressions for me, as there are so many consistent restaurants nearby. I spent $60ish dollars for one person at happy hour and there wasn't much than dough and ice I can remember, and the long waits. I'd have better bang for my buck at minami, even at the keg at regular price, I can get better protein and carbs for about the same amount. ummm

We came here for a Winnie the Pooh Afternoon Tea. Oh my goodness...it far exceeded my expectations!…read moreHats off to the kitchen staff for coming up with such a creative and whimsical afternoon tea. First thing that caught my eye was the cover of the afternoon tea menu. It was red with a picture of Winnie the Pooh and Christopher Robin printed upon it in a shiny gold colour. When flipped over, it had the menu for the afternoon tea printed upon it. I was super impressed that they even had a separate menu printed for Vegetarians. (I opted for a Vegetarian menu). There was a cute little ceramic jar that was shaped like a Honey pot, and it had sugar cubes in it! Then there was this booklet that was pages long, and divided into Chapters. It was basically the menu again, but in the form of a small book. Each Chapter of the book described different foods from the afternoon tea. The last chapter listed all the different tea flavors one could choose. When we sat down and read this menu, I heard more than one person at the table say that they wanted to take this menu home. Guess what? For the price of $25, one could take this menu home as a memento of this extraordinary afternoon tea? Maybe I'm a bit of a sucker, but how often does one get to go to an afternoon tea as special as this? And I've always been a huge fan of Winnie the Pooh. So I coughed up the $25 and brought one of these menus home with us! Food was sooo good. I loved how warm the scone was when I cut it open. This was one of my favourite items. The sandwiches were amongst my favourites as well. As phenomenal as the experience was, I do think there are a few things which could have improved the experience. For one, a bit more service would have been appreciated. I had to wave my hand in the air to get our server's attention so that I could ask her to refill our tea pots with more hot water. Would have been nice if she'd just come around a bit more often and offered to top it up for us. Tea cozies on our tea pots might have been another improvement. A lot of my tea cooled down by the time I got to it. I like my tea hot but I didn't get in very many cups of hot tea as there was a lot of food to eat and by the time I was ready to pour myself some tea to wash down my food, the tea was...not so hot anymore. Oh, and while most of the food was appropriately sized, there was this one chocolate cookie sandwich that was really gigantic and suggested to be eaten last. We were so full already from all the other foods in the afternoon tea, and then to squeeze that giant cookie sandwich in...right at the end? A smaller and daintier cookie sandwich would have been preferred. It was overall a truly phenomenal experience. Yes, I do think it could have been slightly better, but I do emphasize the word "slightly". The points lost were so minor...I would still highly recommend this afternoon tea to anyone. It was well worth the money. It's offered every weekend for now but not sure how long they'll keep this around so if you're interested in a Winnie the Pooh themed afternoon tea, I'd make a reservation for it ASAP!

For this one it is not easy to rate as there are 2 sides of this review. The afternoon tea is…read moreabsolutely lovely and delicious and so brilliantly presented. The setting is cosy and relaxed atmosphere. Staff was lovely and we were not rushed. Unfortunately they require full payment at the time of booking including a tip % automatically applied. I find this quite distasteful. It is one thing to pay a deposit to secure our spot ....but asking for the tip for a service yet to be provided is terrible. My friend really wanted to go and therefore I agreed to it this one time but I would never do it again.

Checked out The Red Accordion tucked away on Alberni for an evening of comfort food and cocktails…read more The Food The kitchen leans heavily into elevated, soulful comfort dishes with generous portions. The short rib stroganoff was deeply savory, rich, tender ribbons of beef folded into wide noodles with plenty of earthy wild mushrooms. It's deeply satisfying, though with all that rich sauce, the last few bites can feel pretty heavy. We also tried the savoury Dutch baby, which had great puffed, crispy edges and a custardy center that held up well against its savory toppings. The cocktail program is just as strong, with well-balanced drinks that don't lean overly sweet. The Service Friendly, down-to-earth, and attentive. We were greeted warmly at the entrance and guided upstairs without any awkward waiting. Drink orders were taken quickly, water was refilled consistently, and our server had honest recommendations when we asked to compare a couple of share plates. Pacing between drinks and hot food felt natural and relaxed. The Ambiance Easily the standout feature of the experience. Set inside a converted heritage house, it feels like dining in a bohemian, antique-filled living room. Between the fringed vintage lamps, dark moody walls, eclectic framed art, and soft amber lighting, the vibe is cozy, quirky, and distinctly romantic. It does get a little dim once the sun sets, and some tables in the smaller rooms are arranged fairly close together, but the character makes up for it.

When we arrived rather than being welcomed we were advised of when we needed to exit. Unfortunate. We sat, my gal excited for the evening was perusing the wine list to select something special. Three times we were approached to see if we were ready to order food. We hadn't selected wine. We had been there less than 10 minutes. We were told at that point (for the second time) when we had to leave by. We selected a top bottle and when we ordered were told what time we needed to vacate the table. At that point I had enough. I wasn't prepared to spend that much on a beautiful bottle of wine (and dinner) to be harassed the entire time we enjoyed it. Very embarrassed I had to ask my guest if we could leave. Went to Cin Cin on Robson and had a proper dining experience with professional service. I will NEVER return to sequel despite living a block away with significant disposable income.

The interior was super cute but small/intimate. This would be a good place to go on a date night as the volume inside wasn't deafening; you could easily carry on a conversation with your dining partners (surprisingly, I can't say this about many restaurants lately - especially in Yaletown!). The center of the restaurant is occupied by a bar-island. You'd think with a name like "Alchemy" that they'd be known for their cocktail concoctions here but, IMO, this cute place is more of a pasta/bistro/pub than a cocktail lounge. Their alcoholic beverage menu seemed more run-of-the-mill standard to me. Here are the positives: -the staff here are AMAZINGLY nice and attentive. Like, SO nice and friendly! -there's a pretty fast turnover time between ordering and receiving your foods and drinks. -as mentioned above, the restaurant is cute and intimate, there's a nice patio, and the interior volume is very reasonable. -they have a really good happy hour menu, and it's every single day, from 3-6pm. -they have a daily special, including "pasta Monday", where every pasta dish costs $17.95. -their everyday menu is pretty varied with quite a few options for "pub" food (i.e., pasta and pizza, chicken wings and burgers, and mains that include steak and salmon and chicken). Their desserts look pretty decent, too. (The creme brûlée sounds particularly good!). We were there for Happy Hour, so I got a glass of excellent pinot Grigio and my friend ordered a Malbec (or two!), and we shared a Margherita pizza and some tortilla chips with artichoke dip. The presentation of the chips and dip was amazing (a neighboring table had ordered this dish and it looked so good, we had to order it too). And both the pizza and the chips and dip were really good. Really good. The only reason I'm deducting a star is because there was a dirty napkin on the floor by my feet. That was kinda a turn-off for me. The rest of the table and restaurant were very clean. It was just this one dirty napkin. (I took a photo, attached). (Wish there was a way to just deduct half a star TBH). This was a fun local place, with very reasonable prices for good bistro-like fare, and the staff here was fantastic. I'd definitely return.
