    The dishes we ordered at Sula were the best Indian food we have ever tasted. Outstanding! The restaurant provides a modern vibe with excellent service. My wife and I are both retired and were visiting Vancouver for the Valentine Day weekend. We really enjoyed the restaurant and food. We will definitely be back.

    A sublime meal with appropriate wine pairings (thank you again, Jill). I can not fault any aspect of the restaurant; it’s one of my favourites. My one minor complaint was that the scent worn by one of the servers was a little too generously applied and was wafting towards us as she moved around.

    We have had dinner at Tutto several times and this was our most favourite to date in terms of service and value. We had to dine early hence accidentally stumbled onto Happy Hour. This is the only restaurant I have been to that offers a good house wine during Happy Hour plus there was a nice selection on the Happy Hour food menu. Our server was delightful. Truly, Tutto is one of our favourites for dining out.
