Cuchillo Restaurant - VANCOVUER

Love love loved our dining experience here's I came with a group of friends and ordered the chef's tasting menu. We were brought out several dishes. All came out hot, made to order, and delicious. Most of the options were not things I would have personally tried, so it was fun to get out of my comfort zone. Highly recommend this experience!

Visited Cuchillo for a memorable girls night out. One of our friends is vegan and the restaurant was pretty accommodating. Vibes was pretty chill, drinks were great, foods were decent and reasonable price, overall pretty satisfied with our experience. Blistered Shishito Chillies $12) 7.5/10 I have been known to occasionally eat thai chili pepper whole as snack, so this sounds right up my alley. Nicely charred and served with creamy hummus and crispy plaintain. It's barely spice so I feel like people with low spicy tolerance can also handle this. Brussel Sprout Frita $12) 7.5/10 Roasted brussel sprout is one of my favourite veggies in general, but the honey sesame dressing really took it up a notch. Tumeric Cauliflower Frita $18) 6/10 A bit too soggy and saucy for my taste. Not bad at all but I prefer the other two appetizers we got.

Went here for a private party we had a few different items on the menu to eat all were amazing. The service was great. Had an amazing time. We found lots of parking spots some free and a few pay parking but it was only a dollar per hour close to the restaurant. It was pretty dark in the down stairs private party area so my pictures didn't work out so I will have to go back again and eat upstairs and take pictures it is worth it. Great place.

Came here for my best friend's birthday dinner because we had heard a lot about their ceviche. The food was really good, specifically their street corn, cornbread azul, and cabeza de puerco tacos. They had a variety of cocktails, my favourite was their Mexican firing squad because I'm a fan of sweeter drinks in general. Their pina borracha was also nice, quiet refreshing. Went on a Wednesday evening when it wasn't too crowded but the wait times were still high. Granted we were a party of 9, but it took them 20-30 mins to get our second round of drinks. We were told that the reservation was for 2 hrs but it took them about an hour to get our food and drinks. This is the only reason I would give this place a 4/5. They only had one staff member doing all the tables so maybe they were understaffed? I would definitely go back to check it out again. But would recommend this place if you're looking at quality tuna ceviches. :

I've wanted to try Cuchillo for so long! Although not in the best area, this place is a must visit! The vibes and interior are so cool and they've thought of every last detail. The service was great! Very friendly staff and they serve a yummy cucumber water. I got the spicy marg, but they've got a ton of special cocktails to choose from. my friend got one of the mock tails. As an appy, we shared the guac. Tbh i've had better from other spots but it was still delish! For a main, i had the steak tacos and oh MY these were amazing. There was a blueberry spicy jam, lemon aioli, super tender steak pieces, and some sort of potato hasbrowns. These were some of the best tacos i've ever had! The pricing wasn't too bad either. Would defs come back and for the few mexican spots in van, i'd highly recommend it for the tacos and vibe alone.
