Absolutely fantastic! Customer service was great and food was phenomenal. The prices for Tuesday pasta night were amazing, deals like that for such high quality food are hard to find! Even at full price I definitely recommend checking this spot out for dinner with family or date night.

Love the staff at this place. Vanessa is always so welcoming and a hoot to talk to. It's like that family-owned restaurant in your neighborhood that you keep on wanting to go back to. They make an excellent Caesar salad and our favorites are their Wood-Fired pizzas and of course Pat's cheesecakes!

The food was good but this is a very NOISY restaurant on the small side with reflective walls and floors. There was a table full of very loud family members and friends of the owner that made it impossible to hear people sitting at your own table. Several customers left because of the noise. Instead of addressing the issue, the owner laughed it off (favoring his friends and family above customers) stating "they're from East Van". I thought he would knock off the price of an entree because of the noise but it was full fare. I would't recommend dining in.

I had their Hula pizza. I don't really like pizza that much, but That Place's was delightful! It's not quite a Napoleon pizza (puffy, chewy crust), I'm not sure what style it is but I loved it, as it is super thin. The pineapples that accompanied the cures meats on my pizza were not sour, juicy but not dry, and had a sweetness that paired well with the meat. Got to try my friend's pizzas as well, and everything we ordered was so delicious. I have to come back for their pasta dishes!

First time eating at this restaurant and wow! I ordered their duck fettuccine, and chocolate peanut butter cheesecake both were a 10/10. I have tried a lot of pasta at many different restaurants (including upscale) and this place was significantly better. It reminded me of the pasta I ate when in Rome and Florence. I am a desert person and am very critical of desserts. The chocolate peanut butter cheese cake was airy and the best dessert I had in a long time. It was not dense as your typical cheese cake dessert. The pasta I ate was very well priced. The wine was well priced and dessert. The excellent quality and taste for the food for the price is unheard of these days. The customer service was amazing. I believe it was the owners. They were funny and kind and made the experience even more enjoyable. Overall, I had a great experience. This will be my go-to pasta place. Only “negative” is that this place is 30 minutes from my home. The food I ate was so delicious that I purchased take out for the same order (pasta and dessert) so that I could eat it the next day without driving back….I’ve never done that before. Edit: the takeout was not as good for some reason. I would recommend eating in.

Had a Great dinner last night at That Table..a real family based restaurant with great, friendly, accommodating service and the food was very good. The porrions were generous and very tasty. The Alfredo was not quite to my wife's liking but they immediately made it right to her liking and it turned out great. My Spaghetti Amalfi was excellent. We had a great Sangria too. The best..was their cannoli for dessert. They were The Best cannolis we have ever had in Vancouver..home made..and we told them so. We will be back..and you should give them a try. Thanks for an enjoyable evening.

If I could give That Place 0 stars I would. I was extremely disappointed with my recent experience. I had to pay an extra $10 for substituting an item on the menu despite this not being explained beforehand. The gnocchi wasnt even homemade. The bolognese sauce was watery, sour and didnt even contain beef. The pasta was overcooked, and I was given mozzarella cheese instead of parmesan.

Aaaamazing food and even better service. Coming from someone who has never particularly enjoyed pasta, this place is top notch. At first, I didn t think I would be able to eat much on the menu, being gluten free so I asked for recommendations. The extremely kind and caring server Vanessa informed me that they actually did have gluten free pasta available, although not listed on the menu. Bot sure if it s available daily or what, but boy did I get lucky. I ordered the smoked chicken Alfredo penne, and when I say this is the best pasta I ve ever tasted, that s no understatement. Seriously, so flippin good. Freshly made in house, the texture and consistency of the pasta was spot on and the sauce was to die for. Will definitely be back. 1/2 price on Tuesdays was the cherry on top! I also tasted my friend s peanut butter chocolate cheesecake and this is a must have as well.

this place is such a hidden jem. i came after their last order but the lady server still let me in with such an attentive attitude. i believe that seeing servers truly enjoy doing their work is what makes customers happy and they were totally slaying!!!! on top of that 12.99 pasta in this economy is crazy. i would absolutely come back. food was amazing and cooked to perfection. thanks for making my day

The other night we ordered pasta for take out. The pasta was super dry no sauce in it, barely any chicken or mushroom in it as we ordered and they charged us extra. Just for one portion pasta for take out was $37, I wouldn t mind paying that if it was as we ordered but it was not delicious at all. We live just across the street and moved here recently and tried to try from local restaurant but it was a disappointment and when we wanted to take it back but they were already closed. Will not be ordering from them again.

December 22, 2023

Went here 2 years ago and food was pretty good but went tonight and was brutal and way overpriced. Prices do not match the website menu. I won t ever go here again. My kids eat any kind of pasta and did not want seconds. Smelled rotten. The other kid asked if we could go to McDonald s.

I wanted to take a moment to update my review below. We have been here many times in recent months and cannot say enough about it. The food is amazing, the portions are huge, the price is worth it, service has been amazing everytime. I highly recommend That Place! We ve been here many times over the years and have always enjoyed it. The food is fabulous! Best pizza and pasta in the area that s for sure. Lately I have found the service to be lacking. If you are a regular you are certainly treated differently than a casual diner. Our server was so slow and rarely came out from behind the wall near the kitchen or the entrance to the bar. Had to order drinks and a pizza through another server because ours was nowhere to be found. Same thing happened a few weeks ago. I must say though, the food is so good it almost makes up for the poor service.

If youre looking for a delicious Italian meal, look no further than That Place. From the moment you walk in, youll be greeted with warm smiles and an inviting atmosphere. The menu is extensive and full of classic Italian dishes, with plenty of options for both pasta and pizza lovers. I tried the classic margherita pizza and it was hands down the best pizza Ive ever had! The crust was perfectly crispy on the outside and chewy on the inside, and the toppings were fresh and flavorful. The pasta dishes were just as impressive, with generous portions and rich, savory sauces. To top it all off, the service was impeccable. Our server was knowledgeable and friendly, and made excellent recommendations that truly enhanced our dining experience.

Friendly and family like experience here i have found over the years. I have come to this or should have i say that place ( haha).for over a decade. I feel like im going to my parents or grandmas for dinner. I have always been welcomed with a smile. The food has been consistent every time, delicious. I would say the best ceasar salad dressing around. I always apprechiate Robs dedication to providing some of his family traditions and recipes to my plate. The thin crust pizza with whole-wheat dough is an amazing crust. As a non Italian i learned for the first time oh say 12 years what eldante is as i said wow this pasta has a great bite to it, what is that? Well its how it should be. Thanks to Rob and all the staff for the love, great times and amazing food. You never disappoint.

That place is a great, cozy spot to dine in and enjoy some classic Italian dishes. The environment is super friendly and you can never go wrong with one of their pizzas. This place is a favourite of mine.

December 22, 2023

Was That Place to go to....now, no longer. Things have changed. Pasta was cold and tasteless, service slow and maybe reason the dishes were cold. At least our waitress was enjoying a nice long conversation with the family that came through the kitchen entrance. Probably been to this restaurant 15-20 times. It was good well it lasted. You may consider other alternatives would be my suggestion.

December 22, 2023

We ordered takeout. Server was very nice, but food was not what it used to be. Caprese salad was not as good and plentiful as it used to be and pizza was very flat, had the wrong ingredient, and barely any toppings. The crust was whole wheat, not like the Italian pizza they used to have. We wont be coming back.

December 22, 2023

I have been a regular for year but havent gone since December. What happened to that place??? Is it under new ownership? If not Chef check out what has been happening in your restaurant! The prawns were smaller in size & salad was 1/2 the size it used to be. Overall the food was very different, I mean flat cardboard ish whole wheat pizza dough? You should indicate on your menu! Thats is not what is expected on an Italian pizza and certainly not what you used to serve. The toppings were wrong? I ordered one of my favorite, a Montreal classic but the red peppers chunks is not the same at all as green. It barely have any toppings, less then 1 mushroom sliced, 6 pieces of pepperoni (with crumbs if ham, less then a slice) all that for $24. I know food cost is expensive but thats ridiculous, at most the cost for ingredients for that pizza at $5 or less. The lady serving was nice, but the restaurant was music less which called for a cafeteria style of dining. I have to say, it sucks I have been to your restaurant for many occasions in the last 7 years, I live in the neighborhood & wont take a chance to try it again.

***An addendum to my previous review. Went there for dinner tonight with my friends. They all ordered pasta, and I ordered pizza. I made a request that mushrooms be left off of my pizza, and the waiter made sure to let the kitchen know. Well, when my dinner arrived, sadly, there were mushrooms on my pizza. The waiter apologized and took my pizza into the back. Shortly thereafter, my pizza came back out, and it was obvious the chef had just picked off the mushrooms. There were still mushroom bits left on my pizza, and if I have to dissect a meal, it ruins my enjoyment. This is where our waiter went above and beyond, he got the kitchen to make me a new pizza and while we were waiting, my friend and I had our glasses of wine topped up on the house. This was the difference between average customer service and superior customer service. After dinner, we made sure to have the blueberry cheesecake, and it was to die for. What could have turned into a bad night out was saved by our server, Luciano. My friends and I will not hesitate to return to this restaurant.*** The blueberry cheesecake was to die for!! Im so glad our waiter recommended it.

Pasta was good, fewer prawns then except 2 each dish, others ordered the same dish and received the same amount. Maybe there is more on non pasta special nights. Drinks was good. Service was outstanding, as busy as the place was, service was great. Parking is limited, there is a free lot behind the restaurant. It was a bit loud inside but thats the sound of happy people.

This has been our families favourite restaurant in the lower mainland for over a year now. Frankly I ve had better pasta here then a lot of the restaurants in Italy I ve been to. Food : The food is great, everything has always been cooked to perfection. Portion sizing is great with good presentation. Service : The service is second to none in my opinion, I ve yet to have my order incorrect and it s always up as quick as a perfect dinner could be! Atmosphere : The atmosphere inside is that of a family restaurant. I ve never felt anything but a happy upbeat environment. Overall : I ve eaten at some of Vancouvers best dining and would choose That Place over any of the other restaurants in the lower mainland. Please never change!!!

So this place got good reviews my experience was I ordered a pizza and spaghetti. The entire pizza was burnt, whatever, but the spaghetti was bought for my 5 year old granddaughter, she took one bit and it was sooo spicy it took 20 mins to get her mouth to stop hurting and crying.

The service was good, the food was great. And the dessert was delicious. The gnocchi is home made, and we were lucky to get a batch from the same day. So it was . I highly recommend trying the cheesecake, its not as heavy since the filling is whipped, which makes it more enjoyable in my opinion.

We were a group of 12. Those who ordered pasta dishes were pleased while those who ordered pizza were disappointed. The pizza looked like white pita bread with barely any toppings, good thing it was half price Wednesday otherwise, we would have been very upset. The atmosphere is non existent. Nothing on the walls and tile floors makes it cold and loud with an echo which can be very annoying to some people.

Some of the best pasta in the Vancouver area, hands down! My favourites are the spicy tortellini and the smoked penne chicken pasta. The service was great too. Definitely recommend supporting this small business.

1.Had to go to the restaurant to order takeout, they don t pick up the phone and never call back. 2.Waited for more than 5 min to have someone to take the order. No social distance at the door, good luck avoiding omicron. 3.Order of bruschetta (burned), lasagna, fettuccine Alfredo took nearly 40min. Yap, they said 30min no ready. Tipped well for the takeout didn t help. 4.Kids (4-7 year-old) were going in and out of the kitchen. Humm I wouldn t have noticed if they d bother to care having food ready as promised.

Went here for a drink and appetizer while waiting to get into another restaurant. We were considering eating here instead of waiting an hour for a table at Greek place but the service was SO AWFUL. Completely ignored for 20 minutes before we could even order anything and the 2 servers kept walking by ignoring us even though I was clearly trying to get their attention. The didnt check vaccine passports either.... The food we ordered was actually good but still would never go here again due to the lack of covid precautions and the completely terrible service.

Called in for take out, the told me they re open until 9pm but only doing take out until 6pm when I was just asking what time they re open until and that I was planning on getting take out later, they continuously talked over me. On their website it says all pasta is served with garlic bread, we never got any, so I called and she told me they recently stopped giving garlic bread with the pastas. They should probably let people know so they have a chance to order some . Our prosciutto prawns were dry af and the calamari was over cooked. Also the kitchen staff weren t wearing masks and very crowded front entry. Very very disappointing for having spent $80 on this meal for Valentine s Day. Will definitely never order from here again.

Decided to try this place for the first time and after the experience we wont be going back. The decor was a bit bland, they had a few pictures up on the wall and some plants but that was it. The fellow serving us seemed uninterested and wasnt too friendly for most of our dinner. I dont think he smiled until closer to us paying the bill (closer to tip time I guess). The food was just average, not bad but lacking a bit in flavor and WAY too expensive for what you get. We were seated at a table with a window which was nice right up to the time 2 folks went outside and decided to smoke right in front of it. It wasnt raining so why they decided to park there to smoke was odd and to be honest a bit rude. We believe one of the folks was connected to the restaurant because he was walking around and going to the kitchen at times. You would think if he was he would value the customers a bit more than that. Close to the end of the meal the server came over and said their machine was down and we needed to pay cash. That was strange and forced one of us to leave the restaurant to go to a cash machine. The machine wasnt far from the restaurant but yet another thing that made the night kind of odd.

I have heard raves about this place from my Italian friend so my spouse and I tried it out tonight. I ordered fettuccine Alfredo and he got the fettuccine Alfredo with duck, corn and mushrooms. Both came with garlic bread, however the garlic bread was not garlicky at all, just butter and my spouse s pasta had only a couple small pieces of duck. We also ordered bruchetta which was very disappointing. From other Italian restaurants bruchetta usually has some kind of balsamic reduction. I read in a previous review that this one did. When we got it the bread was quite crisp and burnt on the edges, and we got two small containers of tomatoes and that s it. Tomatoes on burnt bread. We ordered take out so I understand that packing something loose on top of bread probably isn t ideal but a side of the balsamic reduction would have been nice. The tomatoes recipe was bland and nothing special. On a positive note, the Alfredo sauces were quite good.

Went there Saturday night with a group of friends, now that we are in stage 3 and can have get togethers! I had the gnocchi in a pesto rose sauce. Very tasty! A little spicy but not too much. My husband has the beefeater pizza which was huge and also delicious. Nice thin crispy crust and lots of toppings. Our friends had the osso bucco veal with mushroom risotto. They said it was yummy! Fall off the bone veal!

Wonderful little restaurant, the staff are very friendly and welcoming. The food was delicious and large portions. Calamari was one of the best Ive had yet.

Unimpressed. Ordered four different dishes. All seemed to be prepared and reheated. Dry chicken Alfredo. Dry shrimp Alfredo, shrimp had no suace on them and were over done. Spaghetti and meat balls was blah. Didnt even try the baked tortellini. I tipped well for take out. But the best tip I can give you is dont. Just dont. Very disappointing. And I live very close, so its not like it sat for long. Owner was very nice. But I wont be back.

Hello everyone, felt like having some spaghetti and lasagna today and was looking for the Boston pizza across Ikea, but turns out it got demolished recently ? Anyways, then I remembered seeing That Place right by My Greek! Yummmmm . Sorry, I ll get back to my review: Ordered takeout: spaghetti meatballs and lasagna! The Good: I found it to be quite flavourful, tasted fresh, good size portion for the spaghetti, but the lasagna seemed a little on the smaller size, regardless both items were very delicious! The Bad: Nothing at all, noticed the restaurant had around 50% dine-in patrons and even though I was quoted 30 mins, the food was ready in 20, which was a hit! The kind lady who took my ordered to the nice lady at the front, I felt welcomed and taken care of! Alas I suppose there is one thing I need to wait till next time to try out and discover other Items off the menu! Thanks!

My boyfriend had heard good things from a coworker about this place, so tonight we decided to try it out. Walked in and waited at the front door and not even a single staff member batted an eye at us. There was a server at the table right next to the front door, the least she could have done is acknowledged our presence and maybe said something like hi, I will be with you in a moment ? As we stood there I noticed two staff members not wearing their masks (one lady with blonde hair had her mask down to her chin, and one kitchen staff member was not wearing a mask at all). We quickly decided to leave. What a horrible first impression of this place, we will not be returning!!

Our experience at That Place was almost 5 stars and I am sure if we would not have gone during the holidays it would have been. Great service and food, but unfortunately with restaurant space and set up the echo and noise level was almost unbearable. The restaurant has no sound dampening which in our case meant with only 4 other tables we could hardly hear each other across the table. I would still highly recommend this place!
