Big menu and lots of interesting dishes

We got the cauliflower appetizer. Sauce was good but cauliflower was too hard, maybe too undercooked? We got the fish and dill vermicelli bowl and the steak one and they were decent but nothing special. The pickled veggies and salad were good, but the noodles themselves could have been higher quality. The fake meats were good and the spring roll that came with it was really good. We also got the vegan rib which had a beautiful presentation and came with fresh tomatoes. The vegan rib was polarizing - some of our table loved it and some didn’t. Overall, not my favourite Vietnamese in the city but fun to try.

Absolutely delicious

The atmosphere was so lovely with the minimalist decor and the beautiful hanging plants from the ceiling. Came here on a Saturday night and it was fairly busy but the service was still excellent and we didn’t have to wait long for our food. We had the eggplant chick’n bowl, the lemongrass chick’n, and the summer rolls. Everything was SO good. And very filling! The chick’n was almost too realistic 😅 can’t wait to come back and try more options on the menu!

Don’t miss it!

Amazing Vietnamese food. Very traditional flavours yet everything is vegan. The “pork belly” looks almost too real. We loved all the dishes we had. Make reservations!

Pros: Papaya salad, Caramel crackers, Fantastic service

High Vive Vietnamese

A small and well appointed dining room serving Vietnamese. The Pho was good, the summer rolls were excellent. I personally don’t love meat replacements and would prefer vegetables and avocado anywhere a fake meat is used. Also the service was meh and the music was bumping bad pop for teenagers.

Delicious and beautiful

Everything I have tried here is delicious and beautifully presented. The flavours in the Pho broth are incredible, complex, with a savoury, herbaceous, tangy body and a slightly sweet umami finish. It is so good every time. This is hands down my favourite place to eat in Vancouver, and currently wins as my favourite place anywhere ❤️

Pros: Pho broth, Everything is delicious, Big menu

Cons: Loud when busy! Still worth eating in though.

This Place Rocks!

Best spring rolls ever, regardless of whether they’re vegan or not. They are outstanding and may be my favourite bite of food I’ve ever had. The coconut curry ramen is amazing and every other item I have tried was delicious. The new location is much more inviting and the staff is friendly. Support this place!

Pros: Best spring rolls ever, Amazing food , Friendly staff

Tofu Pho (GF) & Vegan Vietnamese Coffee

The service was great! They have a few gluten free dishes and use sweetened condensed coconut milk in the Vietnamese coffee. I was very pleased.

Pros: Food, Service, Atmosphere

Overpriced and subpar food.

We had 2 different Pho and Pad Thai.
Portions were small despite the high price.

Unlike other pho restaurants, they don't give you the side of bean sprouts and Thai basil.

They haven't figured out how to prepare something basic like bok choy; they just threw some raw ones into the broth and expected that to do the trick. You end up with bitter bok choy; you're supposed to blanch it quickly first.

Broth was heavy on the cardamom, meh flavour.

At least the 1 staff I watched had proper food hygiene, which is more than I can say about many other restaurants out there. You know, basic things like isolating touching payment and food.

Vietnamese on The Drive

Small local restaurant offering all vegan delicious Vietnamese dishes. We had the brussel sprouts and caramel used cracker for appetizers. Brussels were really good, but the crackers were standout: “spare rib” on top, but the sauce really makes that dish. Then we had the Beef Pho and the Curry Pho and both were great. There’s about 8 tables and it’s a busy place, but only because it’s really good. Would highly recommend this spot.

Satisfying Spring Rolls, Ribs were oily.

The spring rolls were a good start to the meal, hitting the spot with their crispy texture and savory filling. However, in hindsight, I might have been better off ordering the veggie option. The "meat" in the rolls had a slightly salty and processed taste, which was a minor letdown.

The ribs were generously slathered in a flavorful sauce but leaned on the oily side. The pho was packed with flavor. However, it suffered from being overpowered by the intense aroma and taste of cloves and cinnamon. It felt like a little of these spices went a long way, and, unfortunately, they somewhat overwhelmed the overall dish.

Pros: Cute location, Friendly staff

Cons: Oily dishes, Pho overpowered by cloves and cinnamon

Very good vegan Vietnamese

Very good 100% plant-based Vietnamese food. I had summer rolls and cha Ca Hanoi. The main course was delicious: light and flavorful. The dish had beautiful colors, balanced flavors, and very fresh ingredients. Very friendly staff. Recommended! Mango lemonade had intense flavor. I’ll go back

Really good Pho

We went there for dinner at a prime time on a Friday night and were able to get a table (2pl). we had pho pad thai and fried dumplings. Everything was tasty and fresh. The pho broth was delicious. The vinegar garlic sauce was also really good and not to be passed up.

Pros: Fast service, Tasty food

Cons: Pad thai a little too sweet

Amazing, authentic viet vegan food!

First off the restaurant is super cute and comfy. The servers are so sweet and attentive 5/5 just for those hardworking girls!!

We came here after a day of paddle boarding so we were starved and boy was the restaurant just the right thing.

We started with the summer roll, and fried cauliflower. The roll was really refreshing and the peanut sauce was super tasty. It was 1 big rice paper roll cut into 4 small rolls. The fried cauliflower was in a buffalo hot sauce and sooo crispy. Good balance of spicy and hot. Big portion too!

We had the Eggplant chick’n and the pho and they were both amazing. The eggplant chick’n was so delicious and spicy. The pho was huge lol and the broth was extremely flavourful. They also bring garlic and sweet and sour sauce to add to the pho.

Ended up only eating half the pho cause it was huge. I will enjoy it again tomorrow for lunch 😆

This place is a gem find, will be coming back.

Pros: Authentic , Amazing service

Delicious

We had a great take away last week.
The curry soup with spinach rice noodles was so full of flavour, (almost too spicy for me). The wok fried Brussel sprouts were so good I could have eaten a whole mains worth of them.

We loved it!

Finally got to check out Viet Family last night and we were SO impressed! We all got the beef pho (everything’s vegan!!) and I also got an iced viet coffee. So delicious, and the folks working were very informative and let us know what sauces would be the best in our soups (and they were right!!). We will be doing a round two sooner than later to try more things.

Pros: All vegan, HUGE bowls of soup, Lovely lovely staff

Commercial Drive Gem

Finally got a chance to try the new Viet Family on the Drive - safe to say it’ll be a solid go-to for us when Vietnamese food cravings hit!

Super relaxed atmosphere and the staff are incredibly helpful and quick to make some great suggestions. Portions are quite large and food is filling and high quality.

There is so much more of the menu we want to try so we’ll be back soon!

Pros: Great bang for your buck (quality, portion size), Friendly staff, Flavorful and health conscience
