The perfect little corner-café to have a nice cup of coffee and people-watch! If the weather's good, snag a seat on the bench outside and watch the world go by.

This stunning spot serves beautiful dishes that taste just as good as they look. Whether it's for brunch, lunch or dinner, peruse the garden and sip on one of the many cocktails at the bar. 

Dimly lit, green interiors and a little patio makes Caffé La Tanna the perfect spot for a glass of vino and some Italian favourites. Small plates and family-style pasta dishes, this intimate spot may be a casual neighbourhood do, but it's remarkably cosy. 

As our friends at Kokomo like to say: summer is a state of mind. But let's be honest. Getting that summer feeling is much easier with a nice breakfast burrito and iced-matcha in hand. Good thing this stylish café has both! 

La Quercia strips the tasting menu back to basics, in all the best ways. A family style, à la carte, pasta is rolled out daily and Northern Italian dishes are lovingly prepped. Pop by the deli for a lasagne to-go, or a heavenly sandwich for lunch.

Livia is a self-dubbed small bakery and Italian café filled with joy and carbs. And we think that describes this gem perfectly. Carbonara for brunch, sourdough and negronis at lunch. What more could you ask for? 

Thai cuisine, family-style and a multiple course Chef's Menu–our three favourite things in one. Maenam not only convinces with their stylish interior but also their vibrant Thai dishes. Our personal tip: the lobster claypot!

One of the first things that springs to mind when we think of Mott 32 is its signature 'Apple Wood Roasted 42 Days Peking Duck' (aka the Mott 32 Cut). Though, in truth Mott 32 is so much more than this: stellar cocktails, an abundance of exceptional food and a dining space ideal for any dinner party. 

Can you really go wrong with a classic sushi experience? Osaka offers you exactly that. Fresh, high-quality ingredients and an inviting menu of all the classics—a delightful journey into authentic Japanese flavours. 

An oasis of serenity: light pretty much swaddles the space at Sushi Hil as light floods through the windows. Sit by the counter to watch Chef Hil Nguy rustle up some of the tastiest makimono and sashimi sets you can find in Vancouver. 

Who doesn't love classic, old-school sushi? Sushi Mania is everything you expect from your local Sushi hub and more! Try the spicy tuna hand roll and the prawn tempura. 

This unassuming gem is one of our favourite places for Japanese cuisine in Vancouver. And let's be honest, can you really go wrong with good, authentic sushi? We recommend the goma-ae, octopus karagee and salmon belly sashimi! 

Marry local ingredients from the Pacific Northwest with Vietnamese flavours, and you get this gem: The Lunch Lady. It's Vietnamese street food in with a vibrant, modern and award-winning touch. 

While sushi spots aren't necessarily too hard to come by in Vancouver, finding a casual one to pop by for lunch or an easy dinner is. That's where Toshi Sushi comes in. Exceptional flavours, fresh fish and generous portions, what's there not to love?
