After a devastating kitchen fire back in January of this year, Incendio in Gastown has successfully navigated the insurance labyrinth and risen from the ashes looking better than ever.
All the original tables and chairs, for a total of 50 table dining seats, were saved and have been refinished. In the summer, there will be 30 patio seats outside along the perimeter of the restaurant.
The bar, looking rather Stella-esque, has 15 seats and extends around the open kitchen.
The Incendio menu has also been slightly re-tooled as well with a more focused offering, keeping many of the tried and true pizza and pasta dishes, while adding a few new entrees to the mix. The beer program has 6 beers on tap with 25 bottles. Note to beer nerds, Incendio has an exclusive on Grimbergen (Abbey Double) on tap.
The wine program, of primarily BC, California and a few international selections, has expanded with 15 reds and 11 whites all available by the glass and half litre with no bottle over $45.
Sadly, the wood-fired brick oven is gone as the City would not allow it to return and it has been replaced by a pretty sweet state-of-the-art copper gas oven.
