Ask for Luigi Named Best New Restaurant of 2014.
In addition to Restaurant of the Year, Best Casual, and Best Italian Casual, Ask for Luigi was named Best New Restaurant of the Year at the 26th annual Vancouver Magazine Restaurant Awards, held yesterday (Apr. 21) at the Sheraton Wall Centre.Our judges—and the masses—have been emphatic in their praise of the Railtown trattoria.
