Best Authentic Restaurants in False Creek

Service is always friendly and attentive, and the food delicious!

Wow!!! Deep thanks to our server Akane for the wonderful experience we had while eating our Taste of Minami menu for me and my sister’s birthdays. Akane was lovely, attentive, and extremely knowledgeable about what the dishes were, and her speed as well as anticipating what we needed was impeccable. Each bite was absolutely telling of the meticulous way the chefs cook their dishes, and I 100% tasted authentic Japanese cuisine with the Pacific Northwestern touch. My FAVE dishes? All of them; in particular I really enjoyed the bluefin redwave roll and Aburi Oshi—it was like a party in my stomach! Never tasted Bluefin Akami before so when I did, I was mindblown—the sashimi and nigiri meat simply melted on my tongue. Thanks so much Akane and Minami! Definitely coming back again 💞💞💞

I loved everything the pasta and all our entrees were excellent and the server was exceptional answering all our questions and making adjustments. It was our first time here but we will definitely return as was so impressed. The pasta which I shared with my sister was the best I have ever had in a restaurant outside of Italy. I highly recommend this restaurant if you want excellent Italian food. We came here for my sister’s birthday and they made it very special with a card signed by the staff and ice cream with a candle at the end of the meal. I will be back, loved the food and service.

Absolutely outstanding as usual. The food was wonderful, and the team at Zarak was incredible. Our group was running late and they were friendly and accommodating, and took special care once we arrived to make us feel welcome, and to ensure the dietary considerations of the group were met. I can't say enough about the service!

Incredible food, stunning ambiance, and truly exceptional service. Having traveled extensively and dined at top restaurants worldwide, I can confidently say Acquafarina ranks as one of my favourites. Every dish is thoughtfully crafted with fresh, high-quality ingredients, delivering an outstanding culinary experience. But what truly sets this place apart is the service; genuine, kind, and impeccably attentive. Highly recommend! Acquafarina is an absolute must-visit.
