    Focaccia with balsamic and olive oil
    Em G.

    Sunday Lasagna Dinner I had made reservations online a few days a head for availability for the Italian Kitchen's Sunday night 100 layer lasagna dinner for $45. It was super easy and they sent reminders the day before and even the day off to remind you. Its a very central area, only a couple blocks from the Burrard Skytrain Station, just off of Robson Street. The restaurant inside and out side was lit up and decorated with a beautiful holiday vibe with fairy lights and ribbons. Even if you ended up sitting outside it was still very festive and warm thanks to the heat lamps. Once we were seated, the host took our jackets and gave us time to look through the menu. Our waiter (his name escapes me...) was great and attentive. Even if he was busy there was always someone coming around with water or asking how our meal was. The food: 100 Layer Lasagna Dinner Sundays - 3 course meal for $45 Rock Prawn Caesar Salad 100 Layer Lasagna Signature Zeppole I really enjoyed the Caesar Salad with the crunchy romaine, garlicky croutons and the rock prawns. Cooked and seasoned to perfection. There was was a sprinkling of crispy onions as well as tiny salt bombs of fried capers, which was amazing! The lasagna pasta sheets were so light and thin. The beef ragu layered with béchamel and the beautiful Bolognese rose sauce was filling. I asked for an extra piece of focaccia just to help slop up the Bolognese sauce on my plate. The zeppole (stuffed donut) was warm and filled with a decadent chocolate ganache which oozed out after you cut into it. The vanilla anglaise matched perfectly to help with that super rich chocolate ganache. 10/10 would order 50 of them if I had any more space in my stomach. Overall if you're looking for a great meal deal in a beautiful setting you should go and eat at the Italian Kitchen. There are upgrades to the meal or a wine pairing if that what you're into, but the food and service was fantastic. My only regret is that I should have taken a lactate pill a head of time.

    Pappardella Ripiena ai Quattro Formaggi
    Jess S.

    Full experience from top to bottom! Located in a beautiful location, IK is known as a part of the Global group! Resos are easy to secure and highly recommended! And they have one of the BEST happy hours available! We came before a show at the Commodore and highly recommend! The service, by Dave, was wonderful! He recommended some wines and key dishes! They bring around some house made focaccia and oil and vinegar. The oil is good quality but the bread is cold. It would have been so much more heated! I started with the individual Mushroom Arancini (wild & cultivated mushroom, parmesan, arugula, truffle aioli). Good but you don't taste mushroom. You get the aioli and parm! Next was the Eggplant Parmigiana (fior di latte, tomato fondue, parmigiano, herbed bread crumbs, basil & arugula pesto). I loved this but didn't really get the pesto! The eggplant is so flavourful and keeps its true taste, and the herbed breadcrumbs are so tasty on this! Lastly, I got Pappardella Ripiena ai Quattro Formaggi (confit heirloom tomatoes, fresh basil, extra virgin olive oil, butter). So cheesy and perfectly al dente. This dish was so dish and we couldn't even finish it! I loved this experience, meal, and overall atmosphere! Will definitely come back, especially for their cooking classes! Yup, that's right, they really make it a fulsome event!

    Truffle Spaghetti & Meatballs
    Amy C.

    Our waiter, Corey, went above and beyond to make us feel welcome and appreciated. He is the sole reason for the fifth star. Hands down The food was great, wine was light and smooth (Tuscany), ambiance perfecto, and wait did I mention the food? We had the Beet Salad and carpaccio to start. Delicious. Especially, the carpaccio. We had eaten a beet and shrimp salad earlier in the day, which was impossible to "beat." So it's the only reason theirs didn't absolutely shine here. But I pinky swear it's good! We had complimentary arancini which DID NOT disappoint. I don't usually love this dish, but it was perfection here. We had the Veal, Halibut and Truffle Spaghetti and Meatballs for our mains. Our gf didn't say much about the veal but the other loved her Halibut and Risotto. NOBODY could get over my Truffle Spaghetti and Meatballs. We all ate it, and the girls ranted and raved over my dish. All the kudos is true. If this is a dish you would like...GET IT. There will be "No Ragrets." Lol I've been here on a previous visit to the city and it was good, but just not great. This by far made up for it and then some. We'd come back just for Corey and the Truffle alone! Well done, Italian Kitchen. Well done.

    Ravioli and gnocchi
    Steve A.

    Had the most amazing meal tonight, the drinks were great. The food was spectacular, I've never tried the gnocchi before but it was world class. The service I got from Renata was top notch and I'm just going to keep coming back to this place.

    We stopped by to celebrate a friend's birthday. We made a reservation but when we got here, we still had to wait about 20 minutes for a table despite it being a Monday evening. They didn't seem all that busy either. However, once we got seated, everything went pretty smoothly. Our waiter was super attentive and kind, and the atmosphere of the restaurant was lovely. My least favourite part was probably the pasta. We ordered the pasta tower to share. While it was aesthetically pleasing, the food just wasn't great. The pasta was way too tough for my liking and the flavour wasn't amazing. Good thing we got appetizers because they were all definitely the star of the show! Their drinks (both alcoholic and non alcoholic were refreshing!) A free birthday dessert was a nice bonus and surprise. I'd come back to give it one more try :)

    Black Squid Ink Seafood Linguine
    Dominic D.

    Went on a date here. Had a fantastic evening. Very polite service. He took great care of us including keeping our flowers safe and untrampameled in the back. Had the delicious seafood pasta with big prawns and squid ink linguine! Only drawback is that it was VERY LOUD and tough to have a conversation. Otherwise would like to come back here again.

    Food was excellent! Very tasty, well priced. I would defiantly recommend this place if you are looking for an excellent menu

    Steak and Lobster Italian feast
    Cecilia M.

    As part of our anniversary celebration weekend, we booked and bought the Steak and Lobster feast for two that includes drinks and multi courses for around $130 for two people. The Italian Kitchen has a cute street patio but with the recent cold weather, even with heat lamps, I prefer to dine indoors. Inside the decor is a little moody but sophisticated. Each table has an adjustable little lamp that added to the ambiance. Included in the multi course meal was: - House made focaccia - Ibisco Flower spritz drink - Arancino - Burrata & Beets salad - Tuscan soup - Entree platter with 100 layer lasanga, 10 oz prime striploin, 1lb Atlantic Lobster, Rigatoni Zucca - Dessert plate with Limecello creme brulee and Rocher Focaccia was solid but was slightly disappointed that the bread wasn't warm as nothing beats a warm fresh piece of focaccia bread to dip and indulge in! I don't consume alcohol so they were nice enough to accommodate and made a mocktail for me instead, which I really appreciate. The service was great and while dining, a table nearby had a male customer who experienced a slight food allergy. Apparently, he has a peanut allergy but never had pine nuts before, consumed some, and had a reaction though nothing of an emergency. Their server, managers, and chef did address the issue seriously, apologized, and offered to remake the rest of their meal without pine nuts and packed it up to go. That is clearly a great sign of service, hospitality, and management. All the food was great but my absolute favourite was the Lobster, which was so buttery and delicious! They didn't ask how we liked our striploin so I did make sure to request for it to be cooked rare, which they did. I also managed to get a second piece of focaccia bread to finish the fresh and delicious Beets and Burrata salad. What can I say? I love my carbs! There was so much food and all the tables around us with the same feast order packed leftovers to go. We barely touched our entree so had it to go. My boyfriend ate most of the dessert plates, as I'm not much of a dessert girl, but the lemon cello creme brulee was nice and the Ferrero wasn't too rich or sweet. Great meal and service where the value for money definitely delivered. Look forward to purchasing more of these multi course feasts in the future!

    Outstanding Italian meal. Poached Pear & Gorgonzola Salad. Truffle Spaghetti & Meatballs. Table Side Linguine Cacio e Pepe: fresh atlantic lobster, cracked black pepper, salt cured egg yolk, shaved black truffles. Dough Balls with Dark Chocolate and Vanilla Dipping Sauce. House-made Gelato and Cannoli. The service was way above par. Our waiter was super friendly and attentive. He was a real pleasure to talk with. The dining room was very warm and welcoming. Elegant and comfortable.

    We made reservations for dinner for 6 PM but we went earlier because we were in the area and it was raining. Luckily they were able to accommodate us even when we were 45 minutes early. We were able to catch them before their happy hour ended and ordered one of each item on their happy hour menu. Service: Our waiter was so friendly! He made the effort to talk to us and even joked with us a bit. He even came around and reminded us last call for happy hour. Food: Everything we ordered was very delicious. Some dishes were a little too flavorful and salty for my liking though. The best dish was the linguine with lobster and black truffle twirled in the cheese wheel.

    Arctic char, my mom loved it
    Devon S.

    Had another beautiful dinner here tonight. The room is gorgeous, the location is great, especially if you're watching a movie or shopping before/after your meal. The service is great and you can tell they are real professional servers. The food is always wonderful and they have a great happy hour as well. A couple little complaints but nothing that would stop me from going back again and again. The acoustics are really bad. Like really bad. This is no problem if you go during a quiet time. However if it's busy you have to raise your voice to hear the person across from you. Also, tonight I ordered the butternut squash ravioli with toasted hazelnuts and brown butter sage sauce. I was kind of sad because it was not a browned butter sauce. Just a plate of melted butter on top. So much so that I could see butter floating on top of my wine in the glass from my lips. Was still yummy but disappointing as I love browned butter. My mom did mention it to our server, but there was nothing I wanted them to do about it. I don't like to send food back unless something is terribly wrong and like I said, it was still good, just a bit disappointing as it wasn't what I Anticipate when I order something with brown butter sauce. They asked if I wanted to get something had but I said no, so they definitely were gracious and professional and offered to make it right if they could. I simply declined their kind offer because I didn't want to be a bother and it still tasted yummy. But like I said, nothing that will stop me coming back again and again.

    Five stars for the immaculate service and tasty food. For starters, my friend and I were a block away and trying to figure out where the restaurant was. One of the staff happened to walk past us and overheard our conversation. She helped guide us to the restaurant and chatted with us briefly during the walk. I believe her name was Pamela if I remembered correctly. Next our server was also fantastic. Unfortunately, I forgot to ask for her name. Our server was friendly and experienced at her job. She filled our water glasses, dropped off menus promptly and checked in throughout the meal. We enjoyed some drinks, pasta and desserts. Complementary focaccia bread was offered right after placing our order. The bread was fresh, fluffy and soft served with a side of balsamic vinegar and olive oil. I had the mojito melibisco as my drink order. It was a refreshing fruity drink. Next I ordered the truffle spaghetti and meatballs. The pasta was amazing - freshly made spaghetti with some black truffle cream sauce. It was aromatic and scrumptious with every bite. The meatballs were seasoned well and covered in tomato sauce. It was a great combination of flavours. Also, it was a pleasant surprise that there was a complimentary zeppole dessert for the birthday girl. We still ordered the table side tiramisu as it is one of my favourite desserts. The zeppole was like a fancy powdered donut with chocolate filling. The tiramisu was prepared table side. Lady fingers were soaked in espresso, covered in mascarpone cream and topped with grated chocolate. It was a decadent dessert. While dining, multiple staff including our server stopped by our table with a table crumber. They were very efficient at maintaining the clean aesthetics and elevating the dining experience. Ambiance was warm, inviting and classy. Overall, we thoroughly enjoyed our dining experience at this restaurant. I highly recommend giving this restaurant a visit when you are craving for some mouth watering Italian cuisine.

    The sablefish over risotto. Delicious!

    We were with a large party celebrating a graduation. Service was very prompt and attentive. The food was served in a timely manner and was excellent. The prosecco and wine were always readily available. I had the steak, my wife had the fish and a friend had the gnocchi. All were superb. The caesar salad and wild mushroom soup were also excellent. The tiramisu was honestly excellent, but not as traditional as we were expecting. There was very little amaretto and less "spongy" ladyfingers as a result. It was really light with a lot of mousse. Loved it! We've stayed at Sutton Place many times and it's just across the street. Surprised that we've never tried this place. We will be back.

The service was also great, with multiple people checking in on us. The corkage, at $20, is very reasonable and the restaurant even comp'ed our tiramisu! We will miss it once it is gone. The food was quite decent. I thought the prices were a bit inflated for just pasta, but the portion size was pretty massive -- most of us took leftovers to go.

We absolutely loved their house-made pasta during that visit, so we knew we had to return and explore more of the menu. Ambiance - 4/5 One of the things we appreciate most about this restaurant is the outdoor seating. On a beautiful day, it's a wonderful place to enjoy a meal, especially if you're dining with a dog. Being able to relax outside with our pup made for a very enjoyable experience. Service - 3/5 Service was friendly, but not quite as attentive as during our previous visit. Our server was pleasant, though there were a few missed opportunities to enhance the experience. For example, we weren't informed that alcohol could not be served in the outdoor dining area until after we had already started looking at the drink menu while we were in the middle of dining. Food - 4/5 The highlight of this restaurant continues to be its house-made pasta. The texture is wonderfully chewy and perfectly cooked, giving each dish a freshness that's difficult to find elsewhere. This visit, we tried the mushroom tagliatelle with truffle rosé sauce. While the description sounded incredible, the dish didn't quite live up to our expectations. It was enjoyable, but we still preferred the bolognese from our previous visit and cacio e pepe from this visit, both of which showcased the pasta more effectively. We also ordered the gnocchi, which was well prepared and satisfying to certain extent, but it didn't surpass our favorite one from San Francisco. The pesto sauce was just okay. If we order the gnocchi again, we'd likely try it with a tomato-based sauce instead. Overall Value - 4/5 This restaurant offers excellent value, particularly for pasta lovers. The quality of the house-made pasta alone makes it worth a visit, and there are still several dishes on the menu we're eager to try. We're already looking forward to returning and exploring more of what the kitchen has to offer.
