The Italian Kitchen (Vancouver, Canada)

The Italian Kitchen is another one of the the Global group restaurants. It offers authentic Italian dishes in an upscale setting located in the heart of downtown. I personally enjoy all the G group's restaurants. Their food is good, consistent and the ambiance is great for a night out. 

On this particular evening, we opted for the beef carpaccio which was one of the best I've yet to try and for the main dish the portobello mushroom hand crafted pizza. They also offer an extensive list of wines. It is a bit on the pricier side but I guess you pay for the location and atmosphere. There are definitely better Italian restaurants in the city but this offers an overall great experience. Buon appetito
