What ian p likes about La Pentola:
We all stayed the night at the pus and had our dinner at Ancora Restaurant. Before the meal we spent a couple of hours at the Opus Bar, where we had an area booked off for us to enjoy. The staff was excellent and very attentive. We plan to stay there have drinks next Christmas before having our dinner at the BlueWater Cafe. View all feedback. What John M doesn't like about La Pentola:
We went there for brunch and were seated quite quickly in a friendly manner. It went downhill from there. The service was slow and disinterested...had to grab the waiter for every need because he never checked how we were doing...salt and pepper!!! imagine! Coffee refills...not once without asking. Even had to grab him to pay the bill. Most disappointing service in my last 5 continents.The food was just OK. Won't eve... View all feedback.

Excellent service, smiling staff, good quality food. it's a daytime coffeehouse & nighttime bar. Great decor, & music.

La Pentola, located in the Opus bar, offers great food and atmosphere but could use more help with bartending during busy hours. Despite some negative reviews, the restaurant offers top-notch pasta and a fantastic tasting menu experience. The cozy bar area is perfect for enjoying a nightcap, and the hotel breakfast is described as healthy and generous. While some may find the pricing disappointing, many agree that La Pentola stands out as the best Italian restaurant in Vancouver, offering a delicious Northern Italian menu at reasonable prices. Overall, the restaurant receives praise for its excellent food, attentive service, and inviting ambiance.

I 'm a little biased; the 'dine out ' menu was outstanding and the service exceptional. We drank some great Italian wine! Memorable evening!

What a fun evening at La Pentola! Great atmosphere. We chose to sit at the bar and had the great pleasure of being served by Bailey and her bar team. Take care...
