You don’t always have to splash out on a date. Sometimes, our most memorable moments happen when we’re eating great food for a great price and having fun with a special someone.

We put together a few of the city’s best low-key restaurants where you should take a date the next time you are craving fries, fun, and connection.

Sushi is a classic Vancouver date idea because people in this city can’t get enough spicy tuna. The Eatery is just as colourful and creative as its unique sushi rolls, so splitting a few orders with your date is a good call.
