Perfect spot for a relaxed night out! We loved that it was so walkable -- we were able to stroll over, enjoy a glass of wine, and order takeout to enjoy back at our hotel. We tried the salad, pizza, and gnocchi, and everything was absolutely delicious. Such a fun, easy dining experience with great food and atmosphere. Would definitely return! read more

Nook is such an easy choice for brunch! It has a delicious variety of options from your staple breakfast dish with eggs and sausage to the dishes with an Italian flair including breaking pizza, baked eggs diavolo, and more. But my favourite here is the Dutch baby!!i have came here just for this menu item several times and even fished one whole to myself! Highly recommend! Service is always very attentive and friendly . The space is large with plenty of seating indoor and out. And they have a pet friendly patio area too! read more

My husband and I really enjoy the food here -- it's consistently delicious, and we've tried pretty much everything on the menu. The service, however, is pretty mediocre, and honestly we'd come more often if that part were better. Still, the food keeps us coming back. The drinks are solid, and although the menu is on the smaller side, it really packs a punch. They also rotate their menu throughout the year, so there's usually something new to try without it feeling repetitive. There are a few locations, but this one is definitely our favorite. This spot is also a small, intimate location with limited seating, so if you arrive around dinnertime, expect a bit of a wait. read more

Amazing food that is authentic to food in Italy (so I'm told)! The gnocchi is a must try, super soft and pillowy. Pizza was great and I loved the tiramisu. I'm told this Denman location is better than the others. Cute and cozy inside. Highly recommend. read more

We had a lovely dinner at Nook. The restaurant was quite busy so we had to wait 15mn outside until a table was available. The menu is rather small and I would have liked more options for the pasta for exemple. We ordered tonnarelli cacio pepe to share and it was so bland, barely had any taste of cheese. I have had this dish many times at restaurants in Europe and the pasta is usually so cheese and with fresh grounded pepper. I would not recommend this dish at Nook. The pizza on the other hand was delicious. We ordered the houseade sausage pizza and we were not disappointed. The pizza crust was perfect and the other ingredients nicely cooked. The dessert also deserve praise. Very good tiramisu and panna cotta. Service was quick. Hopefully they manage to do tastier pasta. read more

This charming and intimate trattoria offers authentic rustic pizza and pastas in a cozy, welcoming environment. The pizza is just like in Naples, with a thin center and poofy crust, perfectly sauced and cooked. A small but well-thought-out wine list focuses on Italian wines. Salted Caramel Chocolate Budino is a fabulous chocolate mousse-like dessert that goes great with an espresso. The servers are friendly and enthusiastic, and obviously enjoy what they are doing, which creates wonderful hospitality. read more

Went here for date night and it was both of our first times going to this restaurant. We sat at the bar, and service was amazing. We shared the meatballs, rigatoni alla vodka, and focaccia bread and it was one of the best meatballs we have tried in the Vancouver area. Espresso martini and margaritas were a hit and the restaurant itself was very spacious. read more

Limited menu for happy hour between 4pm and 5pm everyday. I wanted to get order pizza and checked with the server the decisions between prosciutto arugula and anchovy pizza. She asked how salty I can handle as anchovy is quite salty. So I ordered prosciutto as it's the less salty one. Then she said I can add anchovy on the prosciutto pizza - I don't get it. If anchovy is saltier than prosciutto and I ordered the less salty one and she said I can add anchovy on top? Totally doesn't make sense. There are situations to push for more sales but in this incident, totally not appropriate and unprofessional. Food arrive shortly after order. It's a relatively small space with the music it might be hard to talk. read more

Pepperoni Pizza and Caesar Salad. Pizza was about 10" in diameter. Salad, more than enough for 2 people. Both were delicious. Would go back again when our travels take us back to BC. Nook is a small intimate place with friendly and attentive waitstaff. read more

I was really excited to try the pasta here, but the menu turned out to be pretty underwhelming -- mostly standard spaghetti dishes and pizza. What surprised me most was that they charge extra if you ask for cheese on your pasta, and even for a small piece of bread. For plates priced between $28-$35, I'd expect at least a little bread and Parmesan included. The food itself was okay, but overall the experience didn't match the price point. Unfortunately, not a place I'd go back to. read more

A staple spot for pasta and pizza. They had a really good deal during dine out fest where you get a salad, full pizza and tiramisu for $25

Nook was good. We came here on a Saturday night, when we first got there it wasn't crowded. Later on it did start getting crowded and busy. Nook was a cute little restaurant. The decor was pretty. The service was prompt. Our waitress was nice and friendly. She had a bubbly personality. The food was good. We tried some new things and it was good. It didn't take long to come out. Everything is homemade--even the pasta and bread. I recommend coming here. read more

Always enjoy dinner at Nook. Have to start every dine-in mean with one of each of their flatbreads! Wish they were available on the Door Dash delivery menu too. This is one of those places that I wonder why I don't go to more often. read more

It is always amazing to watch a well oiled machine run so efficiently, and happy. Every single staff member was greeting customers, and even each other with a smile, it was awesome! The excellent culture of this place was noticeable as a customer. The chef tossing fresh pizzas, the bar tender making drinks and helping with appetizers, and the main chef making tons of delicious pasta. This is the only place we ate twice during our visit to Vancouver!! It was a packed house both times we dined here, there were 5-10 guest consistently waiting for tables, and the staff handled it all extremely well! The food was top notch! Highly recommended the panna cotta for desert and this great place in general! read more

We stopped in to have some pizza. We had the Margherita and pepperoni pizzas. Both were thin crusted and delicious. Very nice ambiance and we would definitely recommend. read more

Service was average but not very attentive. We had to ask for our bill 3 times before they brought it. Food was average. The Caesar salad was ok but lacked flavour. We ordered a first pasta but the taste was tasteless and was too mushy that we had to return it and got the spaghetti bolognese. That was much better and pasta cooked al dente. read more

This place was great. Location on point, classic look and feel. I swung thru for a couple glasses of wine while my wife shopped. The staff was very attentive. Loved everything about it and I will be back when we return to Vancouver. read more

My birthday dinner was excellent! My husband and I shared Spaghetti bolognese, gnocchi with baby meatballs and sausage with peppers handmade pizza The host was super nice, waiter was very attentive and surprised me with a sprinkler candle on my very delicious tiramisu The restaurant is small but very warm and inviting. We will definitely be back when in Vancouver. read more

I was pleased to try this place with my friends. We had a nice girls night and I was not exactly sure what to expect, but there were a lot of unique items on the menu. The flavours of the food was well balanced. The Whipped Ricotta Crostini was delightful as it had a Nice balance between savoury and sweet. The roasted hazelnuts were a nice touch. The House made sausage pizza was surprisingly nice and light. There was a nice equilibrium of veggies and meat. My favourite was the Rigatoni. Between the three of us, this was a substantial amount of food and I will definitely comeback just to try other menu items. read more

I came here on Saturday evening and wanted to try some good Italian food . I have ordered Whipped Ricotta Crostini and Orecchiette. I feel the portions for crostini was very less for this much price. The Orecchiette pasta we ordered without sausage because we want it to be vegetarian option. It was tasting very good . The nice creamy sauce. The staff was very polite. They helped us to chose good vegetarian option. Will come to Nook again to try some more dishes !! read more

Nook - Rigatoni Boscialo - Italian Near Me - Vancouver, British Columbia

I don't understand all the positive reviews for this restaurant. The ambience was nice, but the food and service could definitely be improved. They pride themselves on farm fresh local ingredients, but we didn't seem to experience that in our dining experience there. They offer pizza and pasta so we ordered pizza and it was very disappointing lacking flavor and way too much cheese. We also ordered their "Nook" caesar salad and it was so heavy with anchovies you could hardly taste anything else, again very disappointing. We waited quite some time for our drinks and then after we got our food, no one asked how everything was until we stopped eating because it was not good. Again, very disappointing. Maybe we were dined on an off night or should have ordered pasta instead. We will explore another Italian restaurant on our next visit to Vancouver. read more

Mmm love Nook. Waited 40 mins for table on a Thursday but worth it. Wines are great. Food is fast and consistently great. I don't even like tiramisu but I would have had a second piece. BELLISIMOOOO read more

The food was amazing but my experience in the restaurant was very bad since our server kept being rude to multiple times. Funny fact : as me and 2 friends we were leaving the restaurant and talking about how our server brought so much negative energy, a guy that was walking by said : " were you guys on Nook? I know exatcly which server who are talking about." read more

Love this neighbourhood gem! The food is always fantastic, and it is one of our go-tos. The staff are seriously awesome & so much fun, my favourite is when they do Disco music night, it's a hoot. Definitely come early, as it fills up quickly after opening. read more

It's a small restaurant, so be prepared for long waits since they don't do reservations. I was with a party of 4, including myself, on a Friday evening we waited over an hour for a table. We were offered the bar area, but we were 45 minutes into waiting so we might as well continue to wait for an actual table. When the line got smaller, we were offered water and asked if we wanted to order drinks. We ended up getting their rose, and as we got hungrier we decided to start with the whipped ricotta croistini ($9). Our dining time was quite short, probably just over 1 hour, since the food arrived quite quick. We ordered the gnocchi ($22), campanelle ($21), prosciutto pizza ($22), and the funghi pizza ($22). Everything was delicious, but the gnocchi with meatballs was my favorite! The meatballs were bite-size, and the tomato sauce was perfect; it had the right amount of sourness and savoriness to it. Their pizza all had a good crust to it, and they were generous with their topping. If you're up for the wait, I'd recommend this place. But I think their staff are too friendly to limit people's dining time. read more

First, the pizza was excellent! Ordering was extremely easy, pickup was super easy, staff were very friendly. We were staying in town and took a super short taxi ride (it was raining hard). If you are in the area, Nook is a no brainer for dinner. read more

This was the best Italian food I have had since traveling in Italy in college. There is a bowl of pesto I ate in Florence that every other bowl of pesto I've eaten in the last 20 years has failed to live up to. The bowl of bolognese I ate here may now be the bowl that puts all future bowls to shame from here on out. The desserts were fabulous the pizza delicious and the gnocchi fluffy and the tiny meatballs tender and delectable. It was so worth the wait for a table in this small intimate space. Additionally Sarah their front of house manager/server/hostess was warm, friendly, efficient, and joyful. She kept the chaos moving and everyone feeling welcome and happy to be there. I hope whoever owns this place knows that she is a treasure and should be kept happy and compensated generously for taking the excellent food and elevating it to a dining experience that will sit towards the top of my meal memories for years to come. read more

Outta-this-world good gnocchi. Meatballs do have some unchewable residue but boy is that sauce good. Just a perfect hint of spiciness, if you crave more heat there's always chili oil. The prosciutto pizza has an abundant amount of meat on top of a bunch of arugula, just wish there's a bit more sauce on it. Last but not the least their house red (Aglianico) is surprisingly good. Highly recommended. read more

Friends have been raving about the Nook for ages.so when someone suggested there for a pre-Christmas dinner with an out of town friend I was excited to go. First of all our server was incredible. Really funny and on it. I think Jen and Kate ordered pasta and Erin ordered the pizza. All was devoured or taken home. I ordered the meatballs and green salad which ended up being fairly expensive but oh so yummy and a great combo! Also server suggested wine and it was good so that was an added bonus. Will definitely go back! read more

Nook, the sister restaurant of Tavola is smaller, buttttt they serve wood-fired oven pizzas. To start, I had the burrata, pepper, hazelnut, and honey crostini. Hold me down, it was heaven. I've never had a better crostini in my life. The fact that they offer wood-fired oven pizzas is a massive plus (Tavola doesn't). I had the spinach, garlic, and kalamata olive pizza. Original flavor, great crust, maybe a lil' too much garlic for my taste....but still pretty damn good. 4 stars on the meal, 5 on the crostini. read more
