Foodie Finds: Dine Out Vancouver 2013 – Laziza Mediterranean
2013 was the first year that Laziza Mediterranean Restaurant participated in the Dine Out Vancouver Festival. They did so with an extensive 3-course set-prixe dinner menu that featured some of their most popular recipes for the very reasonable price of $28.
Laziza Mediterranean Restaurant specializes in Lebanese, Moroccan and Arabian food, plus they even make dining enjoyable for those seeking gluten-free and vegan options.
The evening that WAVEJourney dined at Laziza the restaurant was bustling and had a wonderfully warm and cozy atmosphere. A number of staff came by our table and all were extremely friendly, efficient and knowledgeable of the menu items. From observing the patrons, it was obvious that the restaurant enjoys a significant amount of repeat local customers – which is always a good thing to look for.
Cocktail drinkers will be impressed by the drink menu featuring Laziza’s signature collection of 2 oz martinis and cocktails created with premium spirits and fresh ingredients.
