    All three of us were happy with our meals and this restaurant is actually quiet enough to have a decent conversation. Service was competent and friendly without being familiar. Prices are typical of a French bistro; my bill (before tip) was $28 and change for a glass of house wine and a lovely Nicoise salad made with fresh tuna.

    Cafe Ca Va is a jewel of a restaurant. It is beautifully appointed. I have been for dinners and for lunch/brunch. The food is excellent. The ambiance is warm and welcoming. The service is great. The food is prepared with obvious care and dedication to the dish and its ingredients. The presentation of each plate is most appealing. It is truly a pleasure to dine there.

    Food was good. The service was as one would expect for the price of food which was on the higher end of average but certainly not overly expensive. We would definitely return.

    Food was exceptional, though the Ravioli did not seem like the best value in terms of volume, but the short rib and buffalo was well portioned

    Pictures can say a thousand words, but the proof is always in the pudding. Ambiance: this restaurant is capatalizing on advertising kickbacks, with two gianormous tv screens with a constantly changing scenery depiction, but always with a code to dial in and guess the location. The restaurant disgusises itself as a French bistro, with an impressive looking menu, but is in fact a cafe that serves pre cooked meals. We attended for an intimate valentines dinner. The beef short rib was tough, and clearly cooked earlier, and just warmed to serve. The appetizer mussel and clam dish was disappointing, with sand in the bottom of the wine broth. Wines were mediocre, and dessert was a good attempt, but just didn’t hit the mark. The restaurant was extremely busy, but severely understaffed. The two servers and a relief did their best, but unfortunately that wasn’t enough to provide the dining experience on an occasion like Valentines Day. Very disappointing, was slightly embarrassed for choosing this location, but made the best of it. Wouldn’t return, wouldn’t recommend it to others.

    Wonderful evening. Great food, lovely decor and fantastic service. During ‘dine out’ so very busy but staff was super attentive. Local West Vancouver restaurant that is totally worth a visit!
