Best vegan/vegetarian vermicelli I've ever had! Loved this place since being recommended there 2020 by a friend saying it was a great meal to take and eat in the park. This pic is what she sent me and I was sold because she's a certified foodie!I've not lived in Calgary since 2021 but it will be my first and last stop the next time in there. I recommend it to anyone going to Calgary and one time had someone drive it to me in Edmonton and it was still good!I usually ordered it to go but the one time I dined in it was a delight ??11/10 recommend!If you order delivery call them directly instead of the apps, very good serviceVegetarian options: Get their tofu vermicelli, comes with 2-3 different types of tofu, spring rolls and veg. See my picture ?

I’m sorry but these grand reviews are bias due to the demographic and the limited options to vegans. Honestly they are heavily swayed. It’s like asking a sport team fan for criticize of their own team. Anyways, I support these observations about service and preparation time.We arrived a little over and hour from closing, weeks ago and on arrival, an order was finished being served. 3 tables were done and socializing as we ordered. 20-30 minutes later a take out order was finished and consisted of one soup container and something small.We were served our food 45 minutes after ordering and why?!? The ‘meat’ is pressed and formed so this didn’t take time (or shouldn’t be a hands on process in meal ordering). The front of the restaurant was served only once while we were there but had time for 3 social/conversations during payment. Did this delay the food order? Either or, it’ll be better off if you order and pick up at the counter then to serve to sitting customers.Now the food. It had as much flavor as I’ve been able to extract with homemade but that takes me 10 minutes, and pick an arrangement of vegetables, not all of them.I got the impression the establishment is less about food and more about catering to vegans. If you can’t handle a few tables of customers, consider downsizing.Either or, take a trip to Edmonton to Padmanadi, https://maps.app.goo.gl/31whyaBp4LKkypg17?g_st=ic. They can cater to groups of 15, at lunch and 10 times the menu size. All within 20minutes and with half the restaurant seating space.There is a lot to learn from these guys.

This is one of our favorite restaurants in the city! The food is consistently great, always super fresh and very flavorful. I even tricked my dad into thinking it was real meat once — he loved it and had no idea it was vegetarian!We always get takeout so I can’t comment on the ambience but it always seems peaceful when I go to pick up.

I LOVE THIS RESTAURANT. The food is truly amazing & never disappoints. Somehow it tastes better every time I try it. Everything I have tried here has been incredible and I also love the vibe of the restaurant itself (especially the meditation area!) although I usually do take out. I am willing to drive here in -45C to pick up my food, which I honestly can't say I will do for anywhere else. So grateful to have an amazing vegetarian Vietnamese option like this in Calgary!

First time here and first time eating vegan. Came for lunch and had the mango salad and OMG soooo good! My colleague had the (spicy) soup as he is just getting over a cold, and said it was the best soup for how he was feeling (stuffed up, cleared his sinuses!) Will absolutely be back!

BY FAR THE BEST VIETNAMESE IN YYC!!! The service is wonderful and the food is phenomenal. Always fresh and incredibly flavourful with very reasonable pricing. You’ll leave feeling healthy and happy! Their faux beef is the best I’ve ever had and their in-house tofu is delightful! A must visit whenever I’m back home! Also owned by a lovely family that clearly pours so much love into their food!! Support Tamarind TODAY!!!

I got the house special noodle soup with Jasmine tea. The soup was okay, but there wasn't that much spice in the broth. The vegetables, however, were quite fresh and the highlight of the soup. The tea was good and the whole meal was reasonably-priced.
