The food was so good, and the best part: huge portions! But you can order half portions for cheaper. My one down side is that it was on the expensive side.But I loved the lasagna there, and the Alfredo pasta was tasty. The mozarella sticks were awesome with their homemade sauce as well. Will come back for sure

One of the best pasta I've ever had!! Me and my partner went around noon and they were handing out brunch menus (no pasta). I was disappointed at first since I am visiting from WA and wanted to enjoy their pasta, however the staff were INCREDIBLY KIND and let us order from their regular menu. The waiter was incredibly patient and attentive. Food portion was quite large, perfect for two people to share and some left over. Will come again!

It was very busy on a Friday at 6:45 pm, and we got to share a high table at the front with a lovely couple. Everybody ordered a full pasta (except me- pizza) as they saw the neighbours' big bowls and figured that they could handle it. Turns out that was the smaller portion, so these oval platters came out and only 1 out of 3 could finish it, and took half home. It's not fresh pasta, but it's cooked perfectly, so you would not notice. I ordered a pizza, and took half home. They didn't have hot honey, but our waiter was so helpful, he brought honey spread and chili oil and it was genius. Some wine. Some tiramisu, and truly a spectacular dining experience at a fair price.It's a little noisy for a business discussion, but fine for friends or a date.Bathroom was immaculately clean. Bar seating

AMAZING!!!!! Quantity and quality is incredible! Quantity was humongous half a serving. Quality was perfect. Our waitress Marjan was excellent. She is nice, lively, efficient, and more. Pasta and pizza is a must have order because the seasoning and cheese is phenomenal. Sauce for the pasta is awesome. If you ordered chicken with your meal, prepare to be amazed. It is so flavorful that it almost doesn’t seem real. The atmosphere of the restaurant is calm and pleasant. If we can we will definitely come back!

Four of us stayed in Vancouver pre and post-cruise. We came across Bonta while researching where to eat. We were so glad we did. The food was fantastic! We decided to go to Bonta again post-cruise because we knew we would have a great meal. I ordered the bolognese both nights. While there was not as much meat in the sauce as I've had elsewhere, it was a delicious red sauce. Two people in our party had the DaVinci Chicken pasta. One had gluten free pasta. They were both very happy with the garlic cream sauce. I don't recall the name of the other dish but it had Italian sausage. Just know that t

Outstanding dinner. I rang up and booked our group of 15 which included 9 kids, and Kelly was more than happy to accommodate us at short notice. We were there on a Wednesday night and the restaurant had half price bottles of wine, we had a local Okanagan Cab merlot which was perfect (thanks for the recommendation Tracey!) The food was spectacular- massive portions and a huge range of options, not one of our group left unsatisfied. You can’t go wrong with the pizza’s and the pasta was equally delicious.

We came in after a 20 hrs journey. Staff was very kind and welcoming. Suggestion for a bear was fantastic: Steam Works. We ordered pizza and cannelloni. Everything was really fresh made and it tasted very good. Price - quality relation is just fine. I certainly recommend this restaurant!

Visited here for dinner after reading the excellent reviews. Would agree that this restaurant is a must visit. The staff were super helpful and friendly whilst being attentive. The food was delicious and brought out quickly. The menu was huge so lots of choice. Also does gluten free pasta which is always a bonus. Would definitely recommend visiting this Italian restaurant.

Sooo good. We only had two days in Vancouver after a cruise and we went here for dinner both nights. Italian owned family business—the owner does the cooking himself. The tomato sauce was to die for. High quality tasty food. Wish it was in our city!

The portions are huge and the prices are excellent. We went on a Wednesday night and were pleasantly surprised to hear that bottles of wine were 1/2 price! We will definitely come back and try more dishes. The staff were so friendly and attentive too.
