Great service, fun location near Kits beach, loud inside - but in a fun way that adds to the atmosphere, fresh pasta with nice flavours to the sauces, pizza was also very good. I like it here!

Great place right in front of the beach! The service is great! Food was tasty! ??Kid-friendliness: Our seven month old was in his stroller. They created space to keep the stroller and also provided hot water for us which we needed to make baby formula.

It was the first warm and sunny day after a while so this place was bustling & busy but we got a seat right away from the friendliest host. The food came out fairly quickly, it tasted fresh and flavourful. They were able to accommodate my dairy allergy and surprisingly I had a lot of options. We ordered some specials and a few menu items - all were amazing. My favourite was the rigatoni though and the prosciutto. Service was a beautiful cherry on top. Can’t wait to go back!Vegetarian options: Loads of pasta and pizza and salad/bread to choose fromDietary restrictions: I have a dairy allergy and they were able to provide me with a few pasta options - Parm on sideKid-friendliness: Colouring sheets brought out right away and super friendly staff
Loved our date night. The service (Anika!) was ahhhhhhhmazing. Great, prompt, ice cold Peroni. We had the “tasting board” from the special list. Delish. The crew of staff all rotated through to make certain our needs were more than met. Cacio é Pepe was beyond perfect. We felt so lucky in our perfect back corner table.

Delicious pizza and pasta!The pizza dough was excellent. We also ordered fennel sausage pasta and it was fennel flavor bomb, we loved it! We also like the salad but it was quite average compare to other dishes. Service is not bad but not the top quality.

It was the crazy bar manager that made it for me fun fun fun! A fab night with reasonable wine pricing..it gets busy ,
Great service, vibe, ambiance. I almost enjoy an opportunity to go here alone and sit at the bar it's that cozy in there. A meal is better shared though ;). The food is really good, and I like the wine selection as well.

This is a really nice restaurant with delicious pizza that’s made to order. We had a couple that of kids with us and almost felt it was too nice for them. Fortunately we went off hours when it was dead. The pizza is really good and they have many pasta options. The place is nice and clean and it has a decent layout. The service was pretty good too, although not over the top friendly. This place is in a great location and it looks like it has a loyal following. I didn’t realize it was a local chain. Overall a thumbs up.

I was so excited to try Nook because I’ve always seen a long line to eat here, but I was a bit disappointed with the food. The Rigatoni Boscaiola was not super flavourful and the portions were small for the price. The focaccia was yummy, however it tasted like the same dough as the pizza crust. The Ricotta pizza was refreshing - the ricotta had a good texture and the olives gave good flavor. The staff were super friendly and there was a nice atmosphere. The best part of the meal were the Lampone and Zenzero drinks!

Stand out is the extremely fast service. Like wow ive never seen food come out that fast in an italian restaurant. Props to them.Tried the orechiette and it was herby and fresh. Abiittt pricey although the portion is passable. Wouldve been perfect and more filling if it came with some complimentary bread like they do in italy.Atmosphere is warm, dim, and snug

My first time putting a review with Nook and as per usual I’m greatly thankful for the delicious food. But also such a good time with my friends. We took a lot of different dishes that we shared.All of us had our epiphany with the burrata, then the focaccia, then the meatballs, but also some pasta and the pepperoni pizza, we were full, full of gratitude and ask to bring home the left over of our table that the server prepare directly for us.A huge thanks to the whole team. You were such welcoming, warm and helpful. I strongly recommend Nook in Kitsilano and I’ll come back for sure with a bench of friends ! But before I’m done, one thing… I’m old and cannot eat anything. Please the music was a tiny too heavy, again this is just my opinion :) thank you guys and long life to Nook
