Capo and the Spritz menu
Handmade pastas and pizzas
The Capo side of the venue focuses on Italian comfort food with pizza and handmade pasta at the centre. The dinner menu has featured dishes such as a radicchio salad with arugula, apple, hazelnut, and lemon dressing, according to Vancouver Foodster’s 2020 first-taste review. Specific pizzas mentioned include the “Shrooms” pizza (funghi, taleggio, kale, honey, black pepper, a bianca-style pizza) and the “Too Good” pizza topped with burrata, Biscay anchovies, and basil. Desserts at launch included tiramisu. A 2021 review noted the prosciutto di Parma with burrata as a starter, and an “Old World” pizza ordered by another diner suggests the menu includes pizzas named after traditional Italian styles.
The official menus page lists distinct sections for breakfast, weekend brunch, wine, cocktails and more, and happy hour, indicating that the offering shifts across dayparts. The weekday opening time is 11:00 and weekend opening is 15:00, based on the menus page layout.
Mediterranean cocktails and amaro
The Spritz bar is marketed as Canada’s first spritz bar of its kind, according to Vancouver Foodster. The cocktail program centres on amaro, aperitivo, and spritz culture—Italian traditions that the venue describes as designed to complement the dining experience rather than overshadow it.
Specific drinks documented in reviews include the “Triciclo,” a non-spirit cocktail made with lumette, Stappi, soda, and lemon sorbet, and “Prendimi, Please Float,” combining cold brew, Brio soda, orange bitters, and Cherry Garcia ice cream. The Spritz occupies 22 seats and operates as a distinct area within the shared floorplan.
