Had dinner at Simpatico, a ‘traditional Greco-Roman cuisine restaurant, on 4th avenue. I ordered the chicken souvlaki. It came with rice and potatoes. My son tried the pizza ‘Mona’s smile’. Service was good, our waiter was very attentive and the food was very good. I recommend trying SIMPATICO.

Incredible Pizza! The best I have ever had in my entire life!! I requested extra pizza sauce and if you like pizza sauce they have a tasty one. It's been family owned for around 50 years. Great prices for bottles of wine, $35! You cannot be at that.
Vegetarian options: Yes they have vegetarian options as well as gluten free
Hospitality was warm and attentive we were so delighted to come a little late and we were welcomed to stay pass the closing time and weren't rushed to leave.
Kalamari - This dish was a standout, and we would happily order it again! It was so good!
Lentil Soup - It would be great to see a heartier portion of lentils, perhaps with some added spinach, a lemon wedge, and fresh oregano for a bit more fresh flavor.
Lamb Dinner - While the potatoes, rice, salad, and feta cheese were homestyled and comforting, enhancing the seasoning on the lamb would really elevate the dish and bring out its full potential.
Overall the best dishes we've tried so far is the amazing Greco styled pizza and the very crispy and it melts in your mouth Kalamari dish. When you spray the lemon on it..its like a chefs kiss.
Review 1 month ago Sympaticos pizza introduced our group tonight to a unique taste of "The World Famous Greco Roman" styled whole wheat crusted pizza. From start to finish, what really stood out, was the blended flavors of the slightly sweetened tomato sauce with the smooth abundant flowing cheese that was quite filling in one slice but when it came to the end to eat the crust that really captured my attention all I kept saying was .."WOW! What is this crust made of?" Lets say, I have a new appreciation to Wholewheat Grecco Roman Styled pizza and with the famous lines of Arnold Schwarzenegger ; "I'LL BE BACH!." Thank you so much Sympatico for the kind and generous hospitality!

Sympatico in West Vancouver offers an average dining experience if you're craving Greek food. The ambiance is cozy with a traditional Greek touch, and the restaurant has a nice, relaxed feel. The staff was friendly and attentive, which made the experience pleasant, though service was a bit slow during our visit.
The menu has a good range of Greek classics, from souvlaki and moussaka to spanakopita. I ordered the lamb souvlaki, which was cooked well but could have used a bit more seasoning to enhance the flavor. The tzatziki was fresh, though the portion was smaller than expected. My friend tried the calamari, which was crisp but slightly overdone, giving it a chewier texture.
One highlight was the Greek salad, which came with a generous amount of feta and fresh vegetables, balancing out the flavors nicely. However, some dishes lacked the authentic punch you might expect from a Greek restaurant, and the prices felt a bit high for the quality.
Overall, Sympatico is a decent spot if you're in the area and in the mood for Greek, but it may not be a standout choice. I'd give it 3 stars – satisfactory but with room for improvement.

OVERALL, the meat choices are amazing BUT I don’t recommend seafood options here.
My fav is lamb, chicken and chicken liver It is so tender so good

Ordered take out, the food was good but I don’t think I’ll be back. Unfortunately the food was not very warm and I had to microwave it to get it up to a reasonable temperature. The portions were also on the smaller side, and the Greek salad came undressed (and only had a single olive in it). Overall, I think there are better Greek restaurants in the area, but it wasn’t bad.
I used to come here a lot and I very much enjoyed the chicken thigh plate. Just a few years ago, it used to cost about $17 for a meal, and now about $24, and the portion size is smaller. The food is still good but I barely got full! (At a Greek place!) I understand costs have gone up, but it's just too much $ for the amount of food.

We were advised the service would be slow as the kitchen was backed up and offered a plate of pita and humus in the meantime. Then billed 9 dollars for it. Wow. Be aware, we were not, that their pizza does not have cheese on it unless you specify you want it. Quite a surprise.

We went to Simpatico while visiting Vancouver last Saturday. It was my spouse’s birthday and we wanted something delicious and it did not disappoint. My calamari dinner was absolutely amazing and his lamb dinner was the same. It may be the best calamari I’ve ever eaten, perfectly cooked with a great portion of tzatziki and the freshest Greek salad. We also shared a pitcher of sangria that was very tasty. Our server was wonderful and the portions were generous. I highly recommend this restaurant!
