    Menu: First 3 pizzas (Margherita, Genoa Salami, Cherry Tomato) are tomato base; last 3 pizzas have no tomato sauce.

    The perfect home-made wood fired pizzas. Service was lacking due to short staffed this evening, but quality of food was an "A" and the person in charge (the owner?) was working very hard and did his best to manage the dinner rush hour inside / outdoor dining and take-out. I thought he did well in managing this as he told us before being seated that he was short staffed. (Came here a second time, and again they were short staffed -- so set your expectations). The House Salad with added roasted asparagus was excellent. Ordered the Margherita, Cherry Tomato with spicy Nduja (sausage) and the Raclette pizzas. Our favorite was the Cherry Tomato with the spicy Nduja and Raclette. Recommend for a casual meal. A great casual place for pizza and salad. Recommend!

    Really enjoyed their wood fired pizza here. Perfect crust on all their pizzas. We got the Genoa salami and the mushroom pizza. I would definitely get the Genoa again. Great flavours and textures. The mushroom was delicious as well but could use a bit more flavour (like balsamic or just more salt). The restaurant is also super cozy with lots of windows and right by the water. Well worth a try!

    JOS is a comfortable neighborhood Italian restaurant in Coal Harbor, a block from the waterfront, with stunning views of the mountains. If the weather's nice, there's even patio seating available to enjoy the idyllic setting. The menu is fairly limited - some salads, a charcuterie plate and handful of pizzas. Their pizzas are cooked in an imported Italian wood-fired oven. The crusts have that slightly charred look that you would expect from being cooked in a wood-fired oven. We ordered a Margherita and a Wood Roast Mixed Mushrooms. The mushroom pizza seemed to only have one type of mushroom (so much for the mix) but was executed perfectly. My Nicoise Salad, which came with seared tuna (a selling point), potatoes, eggs, green beans and butter lettuce in a vinaigrette. This simple salad offered a refreshing contrast to our pizzas. The pieces of tuna were on the small side, but the eggs made up for it. They were cooked so that yolks were still bit jammy, with some sea salt flakes sprinkled on top. Utter perfection. Not only was the scenery stunning out the window, but there's also a skylight above, revealing another beautiful view. If we were lucky enough to live in the area, JOS would be one of our regular places to relax and appreciate the Vancouver's beauty, while getting a bite. Should you find yourself in Coal Harbour (or staying at one of the nearby at the Waterfront), JOS makes a lovely spot to spend an hour or two.

    Pizza was great! Came here for lunch with a group on a weekday and they were able to seat us. Service was okay, a bit slow given they were slow. Food didn't take too long to come out. Pizzas were made to perfection and were so delicious. They are quite small though - I could eat a whole pizza myself. Menu has a good variety. The place looks really nice with a glass dome (I think it was dome shaped) with a lot of natural light coming in.

    My coworker and I tried this new restaurant today and it was such a treat! We shared the Niçoise salad and seasonal pizza (roasted asparagus, Gorgonzola, fior di latte, fresh herbs) and found both to be extremely tasty. The pizza had a thin crust which is perfect for lunch and had a wonderful bite from the wood fire oven. The seared tuna on the Niçoise salad was very pleasant and slices of hard boiled egg with a runny yolk was spot on! The server told us they will be updating their menu in celebration of their one month since opening in the next little while, so we are determined to go back soon. Thanks for the delicious meal!

    Everything is great here! The pizza as you would expect is out of this world; the freshest ingredients, awesome handmade crust and the flavour is fantastic! The atmosphere is beautiful and nicely located just outside the downtown core and right by Coal Harbour, so the view is great too! Make some time to visit this restaurant, they are open Monday to Friday 12-9 and Saturday from 5-9

    Simple. Pizza. The way pizza should be served. A wonderful evening enjoying a night out for pizza & salad. The romaine was just divine with clean flavors. An easy menu that makes perfect sense. We also enjoyed the blueberry pie (made by Robert himself) with ricotta, it had just the right level of sweetness to top the meal off. The cool music, friendly owner Robert, fantastic food and beautiful setting made for a perfect meal.

    My wife and I had a pretty good time here. The food was good, especially the Roasted Brussel…read moreSprouts! We loved it so much that we have since been making it at home several times since. Pizza was good but didn't meet the Brussel Sprouts bar. Service though was quite disappointing. We weren't getting the attention of the hostess for several tens of minutes each time we needed something. We waited long enough to get the attention of someone to get some red chilli flakes for the Pizza and finally we just ended up eating the Pizza without the chilli flakes since no one came to check on us for over 20 minutes. The place has a dim light setting for a nice romantic evening dinner date with your partner. Go here for the starters and for a inviting vibe.

The vibe is stylish without feeling pretentious, making it a perfect date night spot. The staff was incredibly friendly and welcoming from the moment we sat down. The espresso martinis were fantastic, the Caesar salad was huge and easily shareable, and the pasta was absolutely outstanding. From the atmosphere to the food and service, everything just clicked. We'll definitely be back the next time we're in Vancouver.

    Woefully sub-average. It is best I can describe this place…read more Entered the place on a Monday afternoon whilst three East Indian men chillaxing in the dining area. They quickly jumped at my presence and returned to their stations as if they're caught slacking off. First idea was to order a deep dish but a few moments later upon entry I decided otherwise. I opted for 2 slices and a pop. Meatloaf and cheese. The sever didn't bother to warm them. They were dry and like old pizzas. Taste is okay/sub/average considering the price but very unlikely I will return.

    Ordered two pizzas from here on Uber Eats…read more My friend and I wanted to check out the local deep dish scene, and this seemed to be one of the few places that offered it, so we decided to give it a try. I didn't have very high expectations, but I was pleasantly surprised by the pizzas here. They offer a variety of veggie and meat pizzas that can be made with regular crust or deep dish style. We ordered a small deep dish margharita ($19.99) and a medium deep dish butter chicken ($23.99) pizza. Both weren't true deep dish pizzas, but the crust was nice and thick. I'd recommend the pizzas here to anyone who likes a breadier crust. My only minor complaint is that the pizzas didn't have enough sauce to complement the thick crust. The pizzas kept well for leftovers too. They tasted just as good the next day heated up in our toaster oven.
