Searching for the perfect setting for your next big date-night or celebratory dinner? Look no further than what can be described as one of the most romantic rooms in the city — Carthage Café on Commercial Drive. Vancouver’s only Tunisian restaurant, Carthage serves classic French and Tunisian fare using fresh ingredients and exotic spices.

Opened in 2006 by brothers Zico and Mohammed Draoui, the room itself has an intimate, authentic charm unlike anywhere else in Vancouver. With its bay windows, glossy 85-year-old mahogany floors and walls, candle-lit tables and fine-dining service, Carthage has mastered the Parisian bistro vibe. Not surprisingly, Carthage draws a strong French crowd. “When I opened here I discovered there was a big French community in Vancouver,” says Zico.

Best spots to drink wine on Vancouver's Commercial Drive

Come here to experience the rare dining pleasure of having your waiter respond to every nod of your head. It’s uncommon to find this kind of attentive – almost telepathic – service at an everyday restaurant. Enjoy the gorgeous decor and a glass of wine while you ponder the intriguing Tunisian and French menu.
