The dishes that came to our table were all exceptional. Very nicely prepared and presented, very fresh and high quality ingredients. The service was very good, and the interior of the restaurant was nicely decorated with very high ceilings.

Every aspect of our experience at Pepino’s was outstanding. From the ABBA playing in the background to the incredible service, everything felt so thoughtfully done. We were celebrating my partner’s birthday, and the staff went out of their way to make him feel special. The interior design, atmosphere, and of course the food were all memorable. I ordered the Martini del Fico, which might just be the best martini in Vancouver. The whole place has a little bit of that 1970s New York Italian restaurant, old-school mobster charm, in the best possible way. A truly fantastic evening. Can't wait to go back!
