Really flavorful good and great service

We’ve been here 2x and the Laksa curry is to DIE for. Our main problem is that we want to repeat order that over trying something we haven’t had before but I’m sure the other dishes are just as good. We’ve also had the saffron curry which is really good. The service staff are very cute and go out of their way to make you feel comfortable.

Very welcome find

I stay at the Sheraton Wall Centre all the time and so I’m super happy to find a vegetarian Vietnamese restaurant with lots of vegan options. It’s a short walk from the Wall Centre and the food is really good.

Pros: Lots of vegan options , Delicious , Location

Great flavors!

We ordered the papaya salad, smoked eggplant, duck wraps, and a coconut coffee. They were all delicious. I especially loved the salad and eggplant. Both the eggplant and the wraps said they were for two people but I feel as if the portions could have been a bit larger. The salad, however, was a great size.

Pros: Flavors , Atmosphere , Vegan Vietnamese coffee!

Cons: Portions were a little small, Price was a little high

Good food and friendly host.

So happy to find this gem on Davie.
Our host was very friendly and helpful as we navigated the abundant choices on the menu.
Our favorites were the bokchoy and the curry laksa.

Pros: Quality , Selection , Service

Lots to love

Overall, this place is great,
But my review should be 4.5 stars. The Papaya Sea Grapes Salad was the best papaya salad I’ve ever had. The Carmelized Tofu Claypot did something with tofu that I’ve never experienced before. It was layered, and spongy, and sweet, and delicious.

We also ordered the Curry Laksa and Bun Bo Hue. While
They were both good (not great) but neither were spicy as promised. The noodles in those dishes were soft and fantastic.

Vietnamese fare

A wee café with Vietnamese vegan food. We can hear the server and cook speaking Vietnamese to each other (this place is legit)… I believe they’re all vegan despite being listed as vegetarian. I didn’t see any eggs or dairy on the menu). Ordered hainanese chicken rice (I’ve never had rice like this, and it was so good… I believe they put lemongrass in it.) Lots of other Asian people eating here that night. Service was quick and friendly, and they asked if there was any allergens we had, appear to be very conscientious.

Pros: Rice, Popular with other Asian diners, Reasonably priced

Fantastic!

Lots of wonderful options, some familiar, some far less so, and we enjoyed what we had: sea grapes papaya salad (very few sea grapes, but a tasty salad and the soy jerky was a more interesting ingredient than the sea grapes anyway), one of the phos and the vegan fish noodle bowl (rocked my world!). And a side of pak choi with garlic (super tasty).

And the staff was fantastically friendly.

Definitely on our favourites list for Vancouver.

Delicious

This restaurant is fully vegan, the food is packed full of flavour and there is such a great, varied choice! I had the caramelised tofu and they do tofu so we'll, some of the most flavour packed I've ever had, can't wait to try more! Plus the staff are so sweet and friendly.

Pros: Fully vegan, Delicious options

Flavour and veggies

I like most of the items on the menu. However, one appetizer was a bit dry/bland and a few mains were too salty for me. But in general it’s really good!

The service is pretty fast (even on a busy evening) and the menu is pretty diverse so I would definitely recommend checking it out.

Just Like Home

When we walked in, we were immediately greeted like family. The vibes are nothing too fancy, but it's a cozy atmosphere. My party all loved the beautiful dishware! The server was eager to please and called everyone "friends." Our food was delicious; I don't know what they do to the tofu in the Caramelized Tofu Claypot, but it's simultaneously crispy and melt-in-your-mouth smooth. Overall I wish I were staying in town longer so I could come back and try even more dishes!

Pros: Generous portions, Excellent food, Friendly service

Great food and atmosphere!

The food was amazingly delicious! The laksa was the best laksa I've ever had. They were able to accommodate anything on the menu for my Buddhist/Taoist diet. The owner was very personable and energetic. The atmosphere and decore was comfortable and relaxing. Highly recommend!

Pros: Food, Owner, Atmosphere

Gem!

Quick and very friendly service, then the best curry laksa soup I’ve ever had. Rich, mildly spicy, packed with tofu, bok choy, vegan shrimp, and trumpet mushrooms. The people at the table next to me raved about their food, as well!

Great vegan options

I would highly recommend this restaurant. The staff were very friendly and welcoming. The food was amazing. We ordered the spicy cauliflower and bok choy as starter for some heat and umami. I had the curry laksa as a main which contained kale noodles. The staff explained that they add kale juice to the flour when making the noodles. I've never kale noodles before and the kale gave them a lovely savory flavour. My husband had the Miss Saigon noodle bowl which comes with spring rolls that were nicely crispy.

Pros: Food, Service , Location
