Carmelos Ristorante - West Vancouver

First visit: with my adult son for a casual dinner on a Wednesday evening without reservation. Fortunately, we have a charming table for two on the window. I was amazed to discover this charming restaurant because I've been driving many times... and never noticed. I don't live in West Vancouver. We were immediately welcomed by the attentive service. Casual. Warm but elegant and professional. White tablecloth elegance. Delicious food good prices. I'm so glad to discover this jewel of a restaurant, and I can't believe it got my attention up to now. I look forward to being a regular patron.

Carmelo relies on her loyal older regular guests and does not pay attention to any new one. It was my BFs day, so we were looking forward to a nice dinner (4) from us. The food was seasoned, polluted and there was a great time in taste. No amount of Parmesan could help. Menu needs a total revitation. To old school and not forward concentrated. Likewise terrible was the complete lack of attention from our server. We had to ask for order. Nobody checked us. To have to ask for the bill... pathetic. My BF and I ordered the same head and mine was completely cut (has two bites), but you were burned. She brought it with our lack of server and she didn't even make eye contact with my friend when she handed over the debit machine to her and said she would let the cook know. My pasta dish was $30 for a meal that probably cost her $5. Save your money and don't go. I'm a much better cook and host.

Great atmosphere, delicious food and wonderful service! Nice to find a great Italian restaurant during the trip!!!

This family-run restaurant in the heart of West Vancouver serves wonderful Italian dishes. Exceptional traditional Italian cuisine, its Seafood Linguine, with shrimps, mussels, Calamari was exceptional. Not much space for the desert. Your Stracciatella soup is exceptional! One of the best I had! Intimate atmosphere, courtesy and fast service. I'm definitely back. Reservations are recommended as this is a very popular local restaurant.

Ordered takeout pasta for three adults. Seafood pasta, vongole, and veal Bolognese. Mixed green blue cheese salad, burrata salad and cheese bread. All delicious and still decently hot once delivered. Will definitely be a repeat customer.
