Kanu Cafe - Edit
I loved this restaurant when it was Kanu Cafe. The food options were amazing and so was the food.
Read moreI was very disappointed to find out they turned into a pizza joint.
This was a unique restaurant that was inventive and ahead of the rest as far as vegan dining goes. Now it's a boring pizza joint.

Pizza was OK - Edit
The food here was amazing when it was Kanu Cafe, but now it is Doppio zero pizza and the menu is completely different. Honestly the pizza wasn't that great, better than panago, but I prefer Die Pie.

Good for a fancy date - Edit
Restaurant needs work for sure but it is good. We went for Valentines and had the special menu. Everything was good and a very things were very good. The staff is lacking a bit for a higher end establishment. And the seating is way to cramped!

Good food, bad lighting - Edit
Food was good. Smaller portions, which means no waste. However, the lighting was bad. It was incredibly bright on a Thursday evening. Gave the vibe of a cateferia. Please put a dimmer on! Chairs are plastic; something more refined would have been nice.

Delicious and filling - Edit
Got a couple things to share: Brussel Sprouts, Jackfruit Tacos, Spicy Udon. Everything was delicious. The sprouts could have used a little more Flavour but we really enjoy this and the desserts were amazing while not feeling overly sweet or terribly unhealthy.
Read morePros: Entirely plant based, Great variety, Amazing flavor
Cons: A little expensive

vegan dining “fine and flavourful” - Edit
Amazing dishes. Flavours have excited the taste buds...
Read moreIf you have a vegan date, this is the place to take them, but I am confident non-vegans would love these flavours as well.
Only visiting this province, but would be back on any other visit. Need to spread the amazingness...
Pros: Modern decor and friendly staff, Reasonably priced for food quality, Delicious

OMG Amazing - Edit
To start the black truffle cheese plate was amazing and the taste profile across all the dishes was sophisticated. We ordered the beet sliders, spicy Udon noodles and the plant bowl and all were delish. Highly recommended!!

Brilliant! - Edit
We were in Edmonton for a meeting and found the description intriguing. We were not disappointed! Wonderful flavors, unique presentation, friendly waitstaff, they had it all. In fact, we were so pleased that we went back for a second meal the next night. Why look around when you have found perfection.

Great atmosphere and fulfilling food! - Edit
Kanu was a wonderful all around experience which begins with your server. Our server had a great memory of the friend I went with, who had gone once previously, and interacted with both of us often and was eager to get feedback from us at the table. She was great.
Read moreWe split the cheese platter, lasagna, and cheesecake. The flavours of everything are incredibly vibrant from fennel crackers with the three variations of cheeses, to the pistachio pesto on the lasagna.
If I were to have my way, the lasagna would be warm, but I still found it delicious and a unique dish I certainly haven't had before.
The atmosphere of Kanu is part of its charm, with the kitchen open and visible from most of the restaurant. It's enchanting to watch the chefs work their magic.
The cheesecake was the highlight of the visit. The base of it being made with pistachio was a deliciously genius idea. I could see myself going back just for a coffee and cheesecake date!
Pros: Fresh, local ingredients, Friendly, knowledgeable staff, Creative and unexpected flavours
Cons: Higher end / Expensive
