A New Gem in Deep Cove: Unraveling the Joys of Il Corvo
Excitement is buzzing around Deep Cove with the opening of Il Corvo, a delightful Italian restaurant that brings a fresh take on family dining to the neighborhood. Joining local favorites like Honey’s Doughnuts and Dip Co. Sandwich, this new eatery pays homage to the community by taking its name from the storied Raven pub that served as a social hub for years.
“I grew up in Deep Cove,” shared co-owner Stacie Watson, “When the space became available, we knew we wanted to reimagine it into a new restaurant experience for the neighbourhood.” The atmosphere of Il Corvo mirrors this sentiment, featuring a warm and inviting design with touches of vintage Italian charm. The essence of family extends beyond just the food; it echoes through every design element carried out by Stacie’s talented cousin and other family members.
Recipe for Success: A Menu to Savor
Led by Chef Tyler Thompson, famous for his ingredient-focused cooking, the menu at Il Corvo showcases a variety of comforting pastas, pizzas, and antipasti. Expect to indulge in Radiatori alla Vodka, Rigatoni Boscaiola, and tantalizing shareable pizzas like Margherita and Diavola.
“Our goal is to highlight simple, honest flavors,” said Thompson, emphasizing the restaurant's commitment to quality. Unique dishes such as Anchovy Toast and Arancini con Caciocavallo Affumicato are not to be missed. Complement your meal with local B.C. wines or classic cocktails, like Negronis served on tap, crafted by General Manager Geoffroy Roulleau.
A Community-Focused Experience
Il Corvo aims to be more than just a dining spot; it endeavors to create a community hub where families can gather and celebrate. Set to offer brunch this winter and a take-out option by spring, the restaurant shows promise as a multifaceted space ideal for both casual dinners and special occasions.
Stacie and Michael Watson’s vision is clear: Il Corvo is a celebration of culinary heritage and a testament to community bonds. “We wanted to create a place that was special and approachable,” Stacie noted, emphasizing that everyone in the community should feel welcome.
