"I watched my Italian grandmother cook 15 to 20 courses for family holiday events as a child," says Mike Macguire, head chef of Caffé Roma & Lounge. "I was inspired to learn how to cook. After high school, I went on to culinary school and then found work at a very well-known Vancouver Italian restaurant. This really elevated me to want to eat and cook better and healthier."
Mike brought his talents to Caffé Roma & Lounge in 2014 after his uncle Gino Crudo joined the restaurant's original owner, Frank DiSalvo, in a partnership. The restaurant closed in early 2014 for a couple of months for an upgrade and then re-opened in time to create a fabulous atmosphere for locals and tourists to watch the FIFA World Cup.
"We've got a real casual sports bar atmosphere with three TVs in the dining area and another three in the bar area," says Mike. “At the same time, we offer terrific food at a great price."
