More infoSocial Corner refused to pick a lane: cafe by day, wood-fired Italian pizzeria as the light drops, lounge you won't want to leave after that. The kitchen splits its heart between Italy and Spain, so an 800-degree Margherita can share the table with a saffron paella and nobody compromises. The Michelin Guide agrees. Come for the 2:30 happy hour on the Homer and Smithe corner.
Book ahead on OpenTable and ask for the window side, the statues and globe lamps along Smithe are the backdrop you came for. Order one from each country: a wood-fired pizza out of the 800-degree oven plus a tapa or the saffron paella to share, and let the cocktail list handle the rest. The daily 2:30 to 5:30 happy hour is the budget move; after 9 the late-night menu kicks in and the lounge act starts. Budget about an hour and 45; you're three blocks from Yaletown-Roundhouse station and an easy stroll to the seawall if the night wants a second act.
