Great atmosphere and even better food. We had a fantastic server, Callum, who was very informative and gave us wonderful recommendations. Great customer service is hard to come by and Callum made it a lovely experience.

The blonde guy with long hair is a terrible server. If he’s your server, I’d recommend asking to be seated in someone else’s section. Don’t expect even a glass of water within 10 minutes of sitting down. He seems far more interested in chasing tips from tables of women than actually serving all of his guests. The first time we came, we were serviced by a lovely lady but the second time was a huge disappointment because of slow service, neglecting basics like bring water and ignoring tables.
It’s disappointing that one person can dampen the overall impression of the brand, especially when the restaurant clearly has great potential.

This was my first time at Como and we all had a wonderful time that was made all the better by our server Callum. His knowledge and suggestions were spot on and his service was impeccable. We will be back and we hope Callum will be there to greet us next time too. 5 out of 5 experience

Been there twice. First time, loved it. Food was good.
Second time, food was good, garlic shrimp could be more garlic flavored. However, we weren’t happy with the service. Didn’t seem like the host or the waiter wanted to serve us. Host brought us to a very sunny table inside, and there’s no ac, so it was hot. I requested to have a shadier table and she wasn’t happy, but moved us to a table and said we only have 40 minutes since the table is booked and then the waiter just didn’t seem like they wanted to serve given the limited time we had to be there. Quite disappointing as I was hyping the place up to my friends.
Food, good though.

I don’t know why this place doesn’t have higher ratings as it’s genuinely one of the best restaurants I’ve been to in Vancouver. The food is SO so so yummy - we had 6-7 dishes and every single one was just so good. Very vibey especially if you sit out on the patio too on a sunny afternoon.

I’ve had tapas all over Spain and Como? is superior to most of them. I’ll definitely be back.

This place is a gem. Red peppers stuffed with goat cheese, bikini sandwich, anchovies - love the hot sauce. Killer wine list. Excellent vermouth. Stellar service!

Most of the food was good (the octopus, shrimp, and the eggplant was really good). The ambience was okay; I was expecting more since their prices were high. Would have given this place a few more stars if not for the service. The server taking care of us was very condescending most of the time to me and my friends. He seemed to have very little patience with us. He made snarky remarks directed at us that maybe he thought were okay, but we just awkwardly laughed at. At one point, I ask if we can merge our table with the one beside ours that just freed up. He said sure, and just watched me as I got up to move it, only for me to realize it was bolted to the floor. He never mentioned this, nor did he try to stop me, just watched me as I embarrass myself. While we were paying, my friend’s apple pay was declined, to which he made a veiled snarky comment that she maybe spent too much today. We thought maybe that was his natural character, until we noticed he was much friendlier to other caucasian customers (he was also caucasian, and me and my friends are asian). As someone who worked in the service industry for years, I have high respect for people in the industry; I treat them with the utmost respect and courtesy. But I expect the same from them, especially if the restaurant charges a lot for their food. I don’t expect special treatment, but please don’t be condescending to your customers. We deserve the same treatment as everyone else, regardless of race. Yes, I did tip, but only because he was watching the screen as I paid.

Incredible craft, style, and focus on flavour. Particular highlights were the lamb special with delicate yet satisfying sauce, the broccolini, and the cheesecake, but I get the distinct sense that anything one might order is a safe bet. Will definitely be back again and again.

This is a great place to experience Spain. Nice wines and tapas. Vermouth and sherry on tap.
With just one caveat, about 4x price of the best tapas bars in Madrid, another everyday people’s enjoyment in other countries becomes elitist when transplanted.

Sat on patio for drinks. Cute place and cocktails were good.
This place was incredible. The olives stuffed anchovies were amazing. The chorizo (get the fried one) was to die for.
The fried ribs also had some peppery after taste and was crispy outside but soft and tender inside.
The iberico pork chop was also quite good, but not as good as the other dishes.
