Cafe Il Nido

Nestled - as the name suggests - in the courtyard of the oft-filmed Manhattan Apartments (location of the Look Who's Talking movies), this flower-edged patio shines in good weather, as weary Robson shoppers pause to fortify themselves with wine and classic-yet-casual Italian fare. Menu standouts include seafood and pastas, including fresh lobster-stuffed ravioli with tarragon cream sauce, house special salmon with grapefruit fennel reduction and unexpected touches like a marriage of candied and piccante lemon on poached halibut.
