Mozza And Lounge

This is the restaurant attached to Radisson hotel in President Plaza (across the street from Aberdeen Centre on the Cambie side). We stopped by on a whim and didn't have high expectations, but dinner turned out to be a good experience. Mozza serves a mix of Italian and American food. The attached lounge is usually open later than the main dining area. We ordered bacon wrapped scallops, la bestia pizza, and spaghetti con vongole. The food was a nice surprise. Though lacking in refinement compared to higher-end Italian restaurants, each dish was tasty and had good flavour. The pasta was cooked al dente and came with a lot of clams. For the pizza, I would have preferred the dough to be more crispy by leaving it in the oven a tad longer, but the toppings were very good. We stopped by near closing time so maybe it was rushed that night. The inside of the restaurant is modern and clean. The waitstaff was super friendly as well! They came back to check on us many times to see if anything else was needed. Mozza describes itself as Italian comfort food. I have to agree; it hit this mark since we left with full bellies and satisfied palates, as well as the warm feeling that accompanies a good meal. Looking forward to the next visit so I can try more dishes!

Pizza was good, but not top tier. Salad was pretty good tho. Service was great Service: Dine in Meal type: Dinner Price per person: CA$10–20 Food: 3 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 4 Recommended dishes: Green Salad

We were staying in the hotel and decided to have breakfast there before hitting the road. Wish we had gone there for lunch or dinner, but the poor reviews made us hesitant. So sad because we had a wonderful breakfast experience! Fast friendly service and the food was good! Coffee was superb and was refilled often. Breakfast sandwich was picture perfect and tasted great too! No complaints and proof to take reviews with a grain of salt

Took a good while before anyone came to the “please wait to be seated” sign, I ordered the classic burger and fries with a Caesar salad and the burger was one of the worst burgers I have had. Barely any sauce and the patty was one of the cheapest frozen burger patty you can get , fries were cold and card board tasting. Caesar salad was the best part of the dinner ‍Do not recommend. Almost $40 and it was disgusting. Service: Take out Meal type: Dinner Price per person: CA$30–40 Food: 1 Service: 2 Atmosphere: 3
