The West End
See All Lists
1. Pho Central
A new addition to the Westend.
It's a small venue with only a few tables to sit and enjoy their food. Great for take-aways in that respect.
I must say, the customer service here is wonderful. Perhaps because it's so small but I genuinely enjoy…More »
2. La Brasserie
It's a small, new restaurant on Davie Street.
It is a nice change of pace to see an eatery of this style open in da hood.
By the way, by small I mean, tight or cozy as some reviewers may say. (My vote is for tight). We had to sit at the bar to eat.…More »

This literally just opened. I had walked by yesterday and noticed a woman putting up the dark grey layer on the window.

7. Dulcinea Chocolate Café - CLOSED
Vancouver, BC V6G
(604) 689-2699
Tauted as a spanish chocolate cafe, I strayed away from this one since it had opened. I had my worries about the ability of any cafe to re-create a genuine spanish experience.
I've gone twice for reassurance. Let me tell you where I am coming from.…More »
