Located in the heart of Vancouver's Little Italy, Pepino's Spaghetti House -- affectionately known as 'The House that Spaghetti Built" -- is a nostalgic, high-energy spot serving up Italian-American classics with character and charm. Housed in the former Nick's Spaghetti House, a Commercial Drive institution for over 60 years, Pepino's proudly carries on the legacy with its iconic wood-paneled walls, warm and welcoming booths, a vintage thatched-roof bar, and photographs lining the walls offering a snapshot into the past.
We serve up red sauce favourites like spaghetti and meatballs, deep dish pizzas, mozzarella sticks, and legendary tiramisu -- all made with high-quality, thoughtfully-sourced ingredients. While the flavours lean classic, we're always playing with creativity and seasonal ideas to keep the menu fresh and fun.
As a member of Banda Volpi -- the acclaimed restaurant group behind Savio Volpe, Elio Volpe, and La Tana -- Pepino's is part of a team recognized for creating some of Canada's most well-regarded dining experiences. Banda Volpi (meaning "gang of foxes") has earned a national reputation, celebrated for emphasizing thoughtful cuisine, warm hospitality, and exceptional service. The group has received numerous accolades, including Michelin recommendations, a variety of Vancouver Magazine awards, Gold at the Vancouver International Wine Festival, and placements on Canada's 100 Best Restaurants.
We're looking for passionate, hospitality-driven front-of-house team members who love great food, great people, and bring their own great energy. If you're someone who brings personality to the floor, thrives in a fast-paced environment, and cares about creating memorable guest experiences, we'd love to meet you.
