So, you can’t cook like Nonna? We’ve got you covered. Like his ancestors, Chef Enrico feels that food should be simple and made “farmer style,” with fresh, seasonal ingredients. All of our menu items are prepared with care in the traditional Italian fashion. Sauces are simmered for hours allowing for a true emersion of flavours. Similarly, our pizza dough is prepared in advance and allowed two days to rise — this grants that the yeast will complete its full growth cycle, creating a lighter meal. As Italian cuisine is so diverse, seasonal changes will be made to our menu; be sure to keep an eye out for new items, as well as old favourites.

As is at home, our food is best enjoyed when shared family style, like the typical Italian dinner table.

While it is not hard to find good pizza on “Little Italy” what sets Sopra Sotto apart is the amazing service level of the staff. The food is excellent- pizza is authentic Napoli and very good but don’t skip the delicious pastas, salads and creative cocktails. We even splurged on the flourless chocolate cake that was so decadent and so delicious and a generous serving that had 4 adults happily end their meal. Great food, amazing service and value- rare for Vancouver!!

But our server ended up being incredible and turned the evening around.

The star of the show for me was the Burrata appetizer and pistachio gelato for dessert. Service was quick and friendly. Lovely atmosphere and quiet spot for some great Italian.

We asked for two samples of white and we got a bottle in the end. But by the time the server was over and bringing it to us. Our food was out. It took so long just to have our drinks delivered. We barely saw our server. She was very absent and had to get the bill from another server walking by as we had somewhere to be after. The food was pretty good. We felt our pasta was a bit overcooked but the pizza and salad was fantastic. Unfortunately, it was our first time there and are last since the service was so bad.
