Best Italian Restaurants in False Creek

The food was fantastic, the ambience was great and the services was great. We set at the Bar as our table was in the corner and had no view. We asked the manager to change unfortunately it was fully booked but there was a place at the bar which was perfect for us as its more relaxing. However, after awhile the manager came to us and mentioned there is a table open whether we care to seat on the table, well we turn it down but its very nice of the manager to ask us first instead of just giving it to other. Beside the bar was great and the Bartender was fantastic recommed us with great food. We took the tapas and it was good choice!

A warm and inviting place. Friendly and knowledgeable service, delicious food, comfortable space.

Cannot recommend Fiorino more.Fantastic meal and service. Started with Negronis, Insalata Caterina and Carpaccio. The salad was fresh, the dressing a little briny that paired perfectly with the nuts and cheese. The carpaccio was like butter; the arugula added the peppery punch that balanced the creamy red wine mayo. We then had the Polpo e Nduja which was an absolute treasure. The octopus was the best I have ever had (sorry Nonna). Mind bogglingly tender. Paired with the perfectly rendered porkbelly and slightly bitter rapini. I could have easily eaten 6 more of these and taken some to go. Added the Fritto Misto which I normally would not order but must admit was perfectly seasoned and all components cooked to perfection. The service was timely, professional and friendly. It was a bit loud at first due to a couple of happy large groups (can't really complain about people having a good time) but as those parties left the acoustics improved. Best meal of our trip thus far. Go, you won't regret it.

The food, setting and service far exceeded our expectations. The restaurant is a charming old house with several small rooms in which to dine. We were seated in a room next to a fire place, which was wonderful on a cold, wet night. The focaccia was incredible—crispy outside but tender on the inside. The Pork Melinese was buttery, creamy, cheesy and so good, the Crème Brûlée was THE BEST I have ever had. We were warmly greeted on arrival and servers were very friendly and took great care to make sure dinner went smoothly. Excellent experience!

We had a great first dining experience at Acquafarina celebrating a special birthday. The food was amazing, service was impeccable and so quick! Our server, Kayla did an outstanding job of making us feel welcome, comfortable and answered all of our questions. Super friendly service and lovely ambiance (the live music performer was so great, the violin playing was beautiful). Would and will 100% recommend Acquafarina!
