Best Italian in North Vancouver...and holds its own with any Italian restaurant, period. This is a "fancier" place and is a great spot for a nice dinner.

Outstanding sushi, and a nice spot for dining in. Slightly more expensive but good quality. There can be long waits here on busy nights, as service can be a bit slow.

Sightseeing

The local ski hill - the skiing doesn't compare with Whistler (or even Cypress Mountain) but Grouse is super close and the views of Vancouver are stunning. Great hiking and sightseeing on top too!
