Good Friends organized our 30th anniversary here. Great Night! There were over 100 guests so lots of table hopping and visiting with each other. The staff were great, everybody’s meals progressed nicely and tasted great!! The staff were friendly and professional. Music was good for our age group, dance floor was full much of the evening.
Great place to organize something like this.
Our Christmas Party last night at Federico's was the biggest hit ever with all of our staff! Food was absolutely top notch and that kitchen staff need big kudos for the quality, from our salads to our dessert, and plus serving all 80 of us at the same time! The waiters were on point! The restaurant was so Christmassy and festive with the music playing! And Federico and his beautiful singer were fantastic!! We all danced and sang the night away! And thanks to Dolores who made booking our event so pleasurable! Thank you so much.....Diane and the staff at St Leonard's😊
We came here for their $45 dine out. Very cool and classic Italian restaurant with a dance floor and live music. They keep it old school and service is exceptional. We never got to meet Federico because he didn't arrive at the restaurant to perform until 9:30 pm and our reso was for 6:30 pm.
Came here to celebrate a birthday and they were very accommodating. Food was unique - I tried a rotolo di pollo (pancetta wrapped chicken roulade). Tiramisu was amazing and so moist. Arancini was yummy!

came for dine out vancouver. from top to bottom this was a great meal. everything we ordered was fantastic. the carbonara was one of the best i’ve ever had as was the tiramisu. just awesome. if i had to nitpick i’d say the risotto needed some seasoning but other than that this was a night to remember. great staff. top notch. i’ll be back
Fantastic on every level!
Food, service, entertainment!! Recently was there for a family anniversary- our group was about 40 people and everyone absolutely loved everything about the night. It was a Saturday so it was a packed house and full dance floor if you are looking for a night out with after a fabulous meal. This place is the total package!

I hoped that Federico's would be like the Bamboo Lounge a la Goodfellas and Federico's delivered in spades. Excellent food, entertainment, service and ambiance. Had the Small Bites, Pescatore, Steak and Flour-less Chocolate Cake. Will be going back.
Went here for my cousin's 40th Birthday - what a great night!! SOOO much fun!! Food was great! Entertainment and dancing was a blast!!! The only negative was I was DD that night and I could not believe they charge for refills on their pop!! - and at $2-3 per glass!! Other than that - staff are great and it's a great night of fun!!
This is the 3rd year that I came to this restaurant for dine out. It is because they have so much option to choose and the food are all very delicious. Today is the last day of dine out so I wanted to come here. My salad was good, I'm just not a fan of blue cheese. My entree was a pasta which is very good too. For my dessert I had new york cheesecake which is so good. I think from all 3 restaurant that I went for dine out, this restaurant food are what I love the most. Waiting to come here next year dine out.
Went to Federico's for Mother's Day Dinner. Usually I find that when a restaurant takes reservations on open table for a special day, it's a bad sign- I'm lucky I was wrong because Federico's was such a great experience. Overall, the entire dinner was enjoyable and we would return again. Try it out before the pasta challenge ends!
If you are looking for a dining experience in Vancouver- this is definitely the place. We have been here a few times now and always feel completely welcomed from the moment we step inside. The staff is incredible and the service is always first class. A delicious meal, bursting with flavour has been consistent with different dishes we have tried here.... And the desserts, to die for! But it doesn't end there! Once the dancing music starts, Federico has the dance floor packed whenever we have gone on a weekend. It is a blast and he always sings a wide range of music. Not to mention his weeknight song list that has ballroom dancers taking the dance floor. Incredible to watch and hear some beautiful music. There is really something for everyone at this gem! We love it!!!
Thanks for the. I took my wife to Federico's about a month ago. We'd been once before and absolutely loved it. Food was great, and the service and ambience was are unmatched. We'll be going back again soon!
Thanks!
Awesome!. Federico entertains well...great selection of songs! food was great too!! really enjoyed ourselves dancing and endulging in the menu! had the lamb shanks, they were so tender and delicious.
It was my first time here last year and I loved the food and atmosphere. Decided to return for our first wedding anniversary and still was a pleasant experience. I felt like a million bucks with the service and the food was tastefully delicious. I love the way Federico greets his guests on their special occasions. I will not wait long to return.
We really enjoyed our time! Lovely Italian restaurant well known for its pasta. Staffs are very respectful and helpful! The energy level was absolutely high intensified by music and dance !
Food is delicious!
It’s a bit pricy on Friday and Saturday nights as only fixed price menu is served! However you never regret if you choose this place for your date or birthday party!
If you want to dine and dance, then this is the place to be. They serve authentic Italian dishes and the portions are just right. The dining area has that old-school Italian vibe to it that harkens back to a time when people actually dress up for a night out.
We went here for DineOut Vancouver. We got a 3 course menu. My meatball starter was absolutely delicious. Definitely my favourite out of the three. The accompanying sauce was just perfect.
For my next course I had gnocchi with brown butter and sage. I was so excited for the sage because I love the flavour but I actually couldn't really taste it in the dish. It was overall a lovely dish but I was disappointed with that.
To finish I had a steak. Perhaps it was the cut of meat but I was left bits that I couldn't chew in my mouth.
Our server was fantastic. You really felt like you were being looked after and cared for. The atmosphere was excellent, there was something oldy-worldy yet timeless.
Overall it was a fantastic experience, I was just slightly disappointed with a couple of elements of my dishes. It is worth a visit though! We didn't get to see but apparently there is an excellent live band.
Came for Dine Out Vancouver and really enjoyed it. Lamb meatballs and the risotto to start were both quite good. The cheese and sauce really complimented the lamb meat. The lamb was warm, wish it was a little hotter but it was good.
Papardelle bolognese was tasty. My wife's seafood linguini had a good amount of seafood - salmon, scallops, mussels, and shrimp - they didn't get cheap on that. The prosciutto wrapped chicken was awesome, would definitely order that again.
For dessert the Bavarian custard was rich and creamy, perfect choice for dessert. My wife had the cannoli and she said it was ok
One of the most fun places for dinner I have been at. Even on a Sunday evening. Good live music, fun to watch people dance and very good food. Makes me want to work on my dancing for the next visit. Even our 20 year olds enjoyed the night. A great spot to enjoy the night and we would return for a weekend. I'm sure it's really hopping then.
