Closing down August 2019

I have been a loyal customer for years however have been disappointed in the serving size variance recently. Upon calling to complain this evening I was informed they would be closing down permanently next week.

Love their brunch

I’ve eaten her a few times now and all of the food has been delicious, but I especially love their brunch options. The breakfast burrito is my favourite.

Pros: Great food

Out of menu items too often

Although the food and the various beverages at Noorish are flavourful and of good quality, the trick is to actually get the dish that you want! So many times, after labouring over their wonderful menu and finally making my choices, I am told “We are out of that.” Time and time again I have had to choose something other than what I wanted (food and beverages/elixirs, etc.). It’s become so frustrating that I’ve stopped going regularly. The good news is that I’m finding all sorts of new “favourites” around YEG!! Like The Moth and Die Pie!!

Pros: Good quality produce, Food and drinks are quite tasty , Nice atmosphere

Cons: Pricey, and can’t always get what you order, Occasionally there are “abrupt” staff, Parking is definitely a challenge

wonderful!

As vegans from Oregon, traveling in Alberta, my Canadian cousins told us that we would starve. They were so wrong! We had two of the best vegan meals we've ever had in Edmonton. Noorish was the first one. Lovely environment, food and service. Lives up to it's name!

Pros: Lovely restaurant, Beautiful food presentation, Great food

Cons: to far away to go again any time soon

wholesome food

They were nice enough to keep the kitchen open for us when we arrived just before closing time. I had the lasagne and my partner ordered a burger. The lasagne was tasty and the burger was pretty good but fell apart when eating.

Pros: nice service

Cons: too expensive!

Favorite edmonton Vegan Restaurant

Hands down
Favorite restaurant in Edmonton.
All the vegan options
All the raw delicious desserts.
Even vegan wine if youre into that (although their elixirs are to die for!!)
They really focus on deliciousness and how it effects the body. So you never leave feeling bad or bloated or guilty no matter how much you eat ;)
Just go...you wont be disappointed

Pros: VEGAN OPTIONS!!, raw options yoga in the basement, Always leave feeling great

Cons: Always craving more !!!

Great Food, Nice Atmosphere

Noorish is a beautiful restaurant with good food. I have been twice on two different trips to Edmonton, and was not disappointed. The atmosphere has a new age, upscale feel. Their menu includes some raw dishes, bowls, and comfort food. The first time I had a tasty coconut soup with noodles, tofu and veggies that was very good; the second time I had the mac and cheese- the truffle oil and fried sage fancied it up a bit, but it would have been nice to have had something else with it, like tofu or a veggie side.
The elixir/tonics look good but they are expensive and have a ton of ingredients. I'm not sure I buy into the idea of potions with a ton of herbal shots, superfood extracts, etc, that will increase your libido, provide energy, evoke presence, and so forth, but I have had a hot matcha drink with some additives like spirulina and hemp oil, that was quite tasty. The coconut whipped cream is delicious.
I will definitely make it a point to go to Noorish any time I am in Edmonton. My only complaint is both times it took a long time to get my food, and even longer to get my elixir, even though they were not very busy.

Pros: Good food, Nice atmposhere

Cons: Long wait time for food/drink

The best! Utterly unique palate in Edmonton

Noorish is one of the best things in Edmonton. It's sophisticated, classy and the food is delicious. Run by a brother and sister team, this conscious eatery is at the very heart of Edmonton's holistic, yoga and mindful living scene. Whenever I go there I see people I know. Whenever people come visit from out of town I want to take them there. Their elixirs are incredibly good. Their menu, which keeps growing and changing, is always incredible and they're profoundly open to customer feedback - always working to make things a bit better. Downstairs is their yoga studio and upstairs they also have an incredible array of books, tinctures and supplements available. Words can't express how much I love this place and how important it is to Edmonton.

My Favourite Place in Edmonton!

Iv been to all the vegetarian places in Edmonton and in my opinion Noorish is simply the highest quality vegetarian and vegan food you can get. The only fully organic restaurant that I know of in Alberta. They even have their own farm in Beaumont, so it doesn't get any fresher! Not only is their food healthy and delicious, they have yoga on site, and some amazing live music! Really looking forward to their new winter menu.

Pros: Organic, Farm Fresh, Atmosphere

Cons: Limited Parking, Closed on Mondays

delicious. not cheap

We had a delicious meal here last night - a great burger and a Buddha bowl. Both flavourful and healthy looking. Really enjoyed by green superfood drink. Nice atmosphere - sit outside if you can. Servers Re very knowledgable of the food and their health benefits.

Pros: raw and vegan food , flavourful food, knowledge waitstaff

Cons: service is slow, quite expensive for Edmonton

Not worth the price

Not fully vegan and very expensive. Small-ish portions. Definitely delicious but not my first choice. a lot of
fad/trendy foods/drinks (if you like Dr. Oz this is the restaurant for you). The raw pizza was great I just wish it was cheaper.

Cons: Not vegan, Expensive

This is a Vegan Restaurant! The Best Desserts

This listing is wrong. This restaurant is vegan. A couple of their desserts (lemon cheesecake, bees knees, and hempress) contain honey, but they don't use any other animal products in their dishes! I love this restaurant. Very unique dishes (especially desserts). I don't know what desserts will give you more nutritional value. I also don't know what other restaurant in Edmonton uses more superfoods.

Pros: Lots of Superfoods, Nutritious, Delicious Desserts, Almost All Vegan

Cons: Some Products Use Honey, Expensive, Only 1 Location

Good food, bit pricey

I have been to Noorish many times, and been through many changed menus, so its hard to report on the food overall. Lets start with: i like it. I have had many nice meals there. But I have also had a few underwhelming ones, and all the meals share one thing in common - a high cost. I love their Mac n cheese, and pad thai, but I have also had boring sandwiches, droopy Dahl, and drinks gone awry. Worth a visit, to be sure, but I wish there was greater consistency. Some times, even the same dish varies...

Nice :)

I come here every few months since they've opened, the food is great, but so far the service is always lacking.

I always end up waiting for a long time for water/food/beverages, anything really, they cannot seem to get anything out in a timely manner even when the restaurant is almost empty, I know their elixirs can take a long time to create but when you only have 2 tables and one already has their drinks it should not take over 20 minutes.

However, since the food and elixirs are so good I always find myself coming back. Try the rose cacao kiss for an elixir and I highly recommend the Bodhi Tree burger or the pad thai with vegan chikn' added !

Pros: Great food, Great Elixirs, Great Location

Cons: Slow Service

Absolutely love this place

Edmonton is a tough place to find vegan food. Noorish cafe exceeded my expectations. A staff who went above and beyond to take care of me. They were closed for an event for dinner and I happened to be dropped off by my cab just a few moment before they were officially closed. They allowed me to order take out...I must have seemed desperate! Fresh, high quality food, great ambiance and great staff. Enjoyed the quinoa salad, Buddha bowl and the Jing Treasure. Buddha bowl had the perfect amount of spice and made with fresh ingredients. Jing Treasure was worth every penny. Absolutely made my night!

Pros: Great staff, Loads of options, Love the Elixirs

Cons: A bit pricey

I've been a few times and have had great food each time. I look forward to going and trying something new each time. Service is so-so, but lately that is to be expected anywhere! Good food, comfortable atmosphere,reasonable prices.

Cons: parking, small

Best Food Ever

This is by far my favourite restaurant. Very healthy raw vegan food that is worth the price. The desserts are to die for. I will definately go there again when I happen to be in Edmonton again.

Pros: Healthy raw vegan food, Great service, Excellent ambience

Delicious food but a little pricey

I have ate at this restaurant a few times, and the food is delicious. The veggie burger is probably the best veggie burger I have ever had, but it is priced at $18. The nachos are so good and great for sharing. They are made in living hemp crackers and quite filling. The restaurant is small in size and the tables are placed really close together. On Friday night, they have live music which is a nice touch. If you go, you have to try the iced dandelion latte... Yummy

Pros: Delicious food

Cons: Pricey, Small restaurant

Soo good, but sooooo expensive

My husband took me here as a treat for my birthday. The food was insane how good it was. I just wish it didn't cost so much. I would love to go back more often but our pocketbook just can't afford it. The atmosphere was different and chill but I wasn't super stoked on many of other patrons attitudes towards us. We had our child with us who was quiet and good the entire time and we don't look like yoga fanatics so we got some pretty crappy stares. Not the restaraunts fault though.

Pros: Super healthy, Great food, Neat creations

Cons: Very pricey, Gets pretty busy, Not very non-yoga patron friendly

High Quality, Delicious Food

Noorish's menu is essentially all vegan (they have the options of dairy, but the default is always vegan) and all delicious. I would recommend the bodhi tree burger, the kale salad, and the quinoa salad, but everything is awesome.

Pros: delicious, healthy, unique

Cons: cost

An afternoon at Noorish

I have been to Noorish twice. The first time I sat at the window in the front. The staff were friendly and accommodating of my food allergies but the food took a very long time to come with apologies each time of how long it was taking. Also the owner happened to be having a meeting with someone beside me and the conversation was not really appropriate for the guests, topics were not for customers to be listening to. This ruined the atmosphere for me, but the food was great!

Second time I was there was for an event downstairs, so I didn't eat there. But I did have an elixir and it was heavenly!

I liked how willing to accommodate my food allergies they were and I loved the decor and area in the back to look at products to purchase. The food left me feeling fulfilled, although it was a bit on the pricey side. I loved the food, but I am still not sure about the atmosphere of the restaurant but will definitely give it another try.

Pros: excellent food, healthy cuisine, friendly

Cons: expensive

Unparalleled!

Noorish is simply amazing. The menu is mainly raw vegan, so newcomers to the raw vegan world may be caught off guard at first - but once you try it, you'll be instantly won over.
The nachos are very interesting. A small portion of pressed hemp chips, covered with raw veggies & "chili cheese", and a side of very tasty "sour cream", "re-fried beans", and salsa, makes this dish delicious and super nutritious - not to mention extremely filling!
Everything I've tried to date is packed with extremely satisfying flavor and nutrients.
The atmosphere is very much as you would expect for a raw vegan restaurant. There's a natural and calm vibe as soon as you enter the restaurant. The tables and chairs are solid wood, with some cushioned seating for a larger group intending to lounge. There's a wonderful dessert case, full of tasty superfood treats. And in the back, there's a section to purchase books, supplements, and handmade jewelery. It's absolutely one of my favourite places to relax and enjoy great food. The price is fairly reasonable, considering the amount of energy & ingredients put into creating these dishes.
The elixirs leave you feeling refreshed every time. A must try for anyone - from raw vegans to meatatarians. They are just that good!

Pros: Amazing Food, Unique Menu, Great atmosphere

Cons: Very busy at times, Seating could be uncomfortable for some, Parking is a challenge at times
