ACCOLADES

“A sunny canvass for of a blend of Italian and Spanish tastes in a fun, casual setting, and with an approachable wine list to match.
Lusty, rustic, bare tabled and boisterous. It also brings some much needed Italian and Spanish tastes to the area. Siena seduces South Granville.” | TIM PAWSEY – THE HIRED BELLY / VANCOUVER COURIER

“Perfect before a show at the nearby Stanley Industrial Alliance Stage.” | WHERE MAGAZINE

“Just stepping into the place, I liked Siena. … it was warm and inviting – a good start for a neighbourhood restaurant. My heart skipped a beat when I saw simple but attractive, comfort-style dishes marching out of the kitchen. | MIA STAINSBY – VANCOUVER SUN

“The most inviting South Granville restaurant to open in a long time.” | VANCOUVER MAGAZINE
