ABOUT PEPINO’S SPAGHETTI HOUSE
Located in the heart of Vancouver’s Little Italy, Pepino’s Spaghetti House — affectionately known as "The House that Spaghetti Built” — is a nostalgic, high-energy spot serving up Italian-American classics with character and charm. Housed in the former Nick’s Spaghetti House, a Commercial Drive institution for over 60 years, Pepino’s proudly carries on the legacy with its iconic wood-paneled walls, warm and welcoming booths, a vintage thatched-roof bar, and photographs lining the walls offering a snapshot into the past.
We serve up red sauce favourites like spaghetti and meatballs, deep dish pizzas, mozzarella sticks, and legendary tiramisu — all made with high-quality, thoughtfully-sourced ingredients. While the flavours lean classic, we’re always playing with creativity and seasonal ideas to keep the menu fresh and fun.
As a member of Banda Volpi — the acclaimed restaurant group behind Savio Volpe, Elio Volpe, and La Tana — Pepino’s is part of a team recognized for creating some of Canada’s most well-regarded dining experiences. Banda Volpi (meaning “gang of foxes”) has earned a national reputation, celebrated for emphasizing thoughtful cuisine, warm hospitality, and exceptional service. The group has received numerous accolades, including Michelin recommendations, a variety of Vancouver Magazine awards, Gold at the Vancouver International Wine Festival, and placements on Canada’s 100 Best Restaurants.
We’re looking for passionate, hospitality-driven front-of-house team members who love great food, great people, and bring their own great energy. If you're someone who brings personality to the floor, thrives in a fast-paced environment, and cares about creating memorable guest experiences, we’d love to meet you.
OUR CULTURE PILLARS
We are driven by our Culture Pillars — the values that guide everything we do:
Pepino’s Spaghetti House is an iconic Italian-American restaurant rooted in tradition and unapologetically full of character. Known for hearty red sauce classics, legendary deep-dish pizza, and legendary tiramisu served with charm, Pepino’s is a fast-paced, high-volume spot where hospitality and personality go hand in hand.
La Tana Caffè e Alimentari, our sister space next door, is a cozy, all-day Italian alimentari. Focused on house-made pasta, thoughtful small plates, and an all-Italian wine and amaro list, La Tana offers a more intimate, seasonal approach to Italian dining.
Though distinct in concept, the two restaurants are deeply connected — sharing a kitchen, a team, and a spirit. Guests at La Tana can order from Pepino’s menu, and many of our staff work across both rooms, gaining exposure to two unique service styles, menus, and guest experiences under one roof.
We’re looking for team members who are excited by this dynamic environment — individuals who are passionate about Italian cuisine and wine, thrive under pressure, and are eager to learn and grow with an industry-leading group. If you bring warmth, hustle, and a love for hospitality, we want to hear from you.
