The atmosphere was vibrant yet comfortable, making it a great spot to enjoy a night out. Overall, a lovely combination of great food, excellent service, and a welcoming environment. Highly recommend JOEY Burnaby”

“Food was very tasty and their bbq was really good! I loved the Taiwanese sausages and the pork belly. However their portions are pretty small so make sure to order lots if you’re with a bigger group. We also ordered the lamb fried rice and a fried noodle dish but they were super oily although the flavour was good. Service was good and they also have a side bar with free dishes like chips and seaweed. Also a sauce bar for the bbq and food with variety of options!”

“No. 1 Beef Noodle is a bold name to live up to, but you can’t say they are not in the running. The menu is absolutely massive. The kind that makes you pause and wonder how any kitchen can keep up. Still, the popular dishes we tried delivered. A2 with sliced noodles is a perfect way to break in your first visit, and while this isn’t the place you would expect to go for laksa, theirs turned out surprisingly good. A bonus worth mentioning is the shop next door, where they sell pre-made versions of the restaurant’s dishes for you to finish at home. Honestly, more places should be doing this. With a name like that you expect them to compete and they do.”

“The food was overall excellent. The flavors were clean and well-balanced, and the ingredients tasted incredibly fresh.
I personally prefer sushi rolls with more filling than rice, and this place perfectly matched my taste. The ratio of the filling to the rice was exactly what I prefer. The seasoning was excellent, and the ingredients were fresh. My picky daughter also loved it, which made me like it even more.”

Hot Pot
“Made significant improvements since I first started coming here. Honoured the birthday deal stacked with the student deal. Food was fresh and service was prompt. Restaurant is generally clean. An excellent choice for hot pot and a great late night option. Ideally suited for parties of 4-6 but can accommodate for larger parties. They are quite busy so it might be a good idea to reserve a table”

Sandwich Shop • $
“Subway isn't just about food—it's a journey of flavor and freshness. From the moment you walk in, you're greeted with vibrant, crisp veggies and warm, freshly baked bread that’s perfectly crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside.
The customization options are endless, letting you build your sandwich exactly how you want it. Whether you're craving classic turkey or an adventurous veggie masterpiece, there’s a perfect combo for everyone.
The staff, including Nitin, are friendly and efficient, crafting each sub with care and speed, making you feel like a VIP. And when you take that first bite, it’s pure bliss—crunchy veggies, melted cheese, and the perfect blend of flavors that leaves you satisfied and craving more.
Subway is more than a meal; it’s an experience.”

“Pretty consistent!!!
I’ve ordered from this location about 20 times now (morning, afternoon and night). I have not really been disappointed.
Sometimes they’d give you regular instead of spicy in hope that we wouldn’t notice, we do notice it!!!!! 😂🤷🏻♀️And I don’t really mind it, but just let me know lol
The only thing that really makes me sad is that they’ve replaced their signature crinkle fries with Costco fries lol 🥲😭
Please bring back the crinkle fries!!!!! 😭😭😭”

Korean • $$
“New Management!!
It was a shame that there weren't many Korean restaurants near Edmonds, but it's a delicious place that's just right without being salty :) This place is run by the owner of Angel Food, which is famous for its cost-effectiveness and taste in Lougheed! All of the leftovers are delicious, and the ‘Han Sang’ menu is really good value for money (first of all, the taste is basically guaranteed). Although the menu changes every day, it’s a shame that I can’t eat the menu on other days, but I think I’ll come here more often! It's not a review event at all. I really like the owner's food so I wanted to spread the word to many people haha. Please try it at least once.”

“Cute little Korean cafe specializing in bagel sandwich. Their bagel is not dense Montreal style kind but softer Asian kind. We had an apple and cream cheese sandwich and it was delicious! The bagel was fresh and tasty. We also had a scone and mushroom soup and enjoyed them both. Coffee could be a bit stronger tho. Plenty of seating inside and outside. Easy parking. Friendly service!”

Carissa and the rest of the Mintara team were so helpful, caring and truly went out of their way to make sure us and our guests had the best day. Throughout the planning process, Carissa was so responsive in answering any questions we had, but also making recommendations to ensure our day was smooth. Also the food was delicious - and we received so many compliments from our guests! 10/10 wedding venue :)”

“An online order for some reason sent it to this location instead of one closer to me. When I called, the girl explained that the Doordash drivers were refusing to deliver it because it was a 15 min drive away (instead of 8 min). The staffer organized another driver and made a fresh pizza to deliver it. Overall it took about 3 hours total from order to arrival, but the staffer did her best to manage the situation. Big thanks to her!”

“This was a nice place. I realize they're sort of a chain but i find this and the sister location on Main St. to be pretty consistent and at-times fantastic. This has a similar(-ish) menu, some great options. I wish i had ordered a little more food bc the salmon was good, but a little underwhelming portion-wise. I could have almost eaten a second (maybe i was just that hungry). Service was decently-good. Two small notes i wish the diet coke i ordered had more bubbles 🫧 and also (so random, sorry) but the same few sports commercials on a monday afternoon became a bit distracting. I feel like it would be nicer without the sensory overload.”
Sushi Bar • $
“The ramen here is comparable to Ichiran Ramen. They use the thin noodles and it is cooked aldente. The broth is perfectly flavored, not too sweet. Everything about my Tonkotsu Ramen was perfectly harmonious. The charshui was the best I have ever had. No stinky pork smell and well marinated. The charshui was better than Ichiran Ramen for sure. I guess the only thing that was lacking was the atmosphere but when the food is so good it really doesn’t matter.”

Vietnamese • $
“Was the first time I've been here, the food taste was quite good and flavorful. The prices are a bit pricier than your average viet place. Service was fast and friendly
The one caution I have is that for their noodle dishes like vermicelli and noodle soup, is that they fill the bottom of the bowl with bean sprouts so you get less noodles and make it look like it's bigger than it is.”

“A hidden gem in Burnaby – like a little piece of Japan tucked into a hole in the wall.
This place might not look like much from the outside, but the food is absolutely incredible. The flavors are authentic, the ingredients fresh, and every bite feels like a trip to Japan. From the perfectly crafted sushi to the rich, comforting bowls of curry, everything is full of care and flavor. The atmosphere is cozy and unpretentious, and the staff are warm and welcoming. If you're looking for a delicious, no-frills Japanese food experience in Burnaby, this spot is a must-try!”

Coffee Shops • $
“Really cute cafe with a light and airy atmosphere! Great choice of desserts that are so pretty they would make good gifts. Had a salmon-avocado sandwich and an iced Spanish latte. The latte was really pretty with huge ice cubes and a cardboard cuff on the cup that was hand stamped with the cafe’s cute logo, giving it an artisanal feel. The flavour was well balanced and custardy with a dessert-like feel. The salmon sandwich was huge and wrapped in paper so it was easy to eat. It was really fresh with delicate flavours, letting the quality of the ingredients shine. While I really enjoyed it, I found it a little too sweet for my taste and was not a big fan of the cinnamon in the pickles, however, this was a matter of personal taste. The cafe is spotlessly clean and a great place to study, work or meet with friends. The staff were really friendly and attentive.”

Korean • $$
“Not the first time here and wanted to try their other options.
Food honestly was surprisingly very good and price was acceptable especially the lunch set meal deal. Seafood pancake was bit more on the greasy side as the wax paper was drenched with oil. Overall a mid 4.
Service was pretty good for a solid 4 with nothing too outstanding.
The atmosphere was pretty good and it was not crowded or noisy. The individual washroom stalls were a surprise and extremely clean and well maintained. High 5 for atmosphere.
Definitely would consider revisiting again.”

Highly recommend the any of the chefs choice options.”
Sushi • $$
“The food was good although a little pricey. The sushi and scallop motoyaki were on par with most other sushi restaurants around. The gyu don lacked flavour. We were happy to be seated quickly but the service was slow even though the restaurant was half empty and there were many staff. The coconut mango desert was a hit.”
Pizza • $$
“Delicious well made artisan pizza place in Burnaby. Their pizzas are delicious, especially the Sicilian (we have it without the sausage and still amazing), smoked salmon and Krispy kale. We also love their crust, which is thin and light. The staff are always warm, friendly and helpful.
Online order available on their website, and daily special.
Highly recommended!”

“Seen many Korean street side chicken places on You Tube. Decided to give this a try for the first time . Went to the location on Canada Way. Ordered the family Sweet Soy Chicken & Fries Took awhile to prepare the food (15 mins) No wonder ,huge amount of chicken box was packed full. Large pieces very flavorful, not greasy at all like Churches grease feast j chicken . Fries were amazing .I found a new go to place to buy chicken for a game . A tad pricey, buy I assure you very well worth the money . If this place franchises, they will give KFC & Churches very serious condition . My first time there , highly impressed. I highly recommended you try this. Will not be disappointed. Very pleasant staff. Simple decor, but the service & food will amaze you . Thank you so very much for an amazing meal. I will definitely will be returning . Added a picture, this is after 3 people eating Big pieces and loads left ... Go visit this place . You won't regret it !!!”

“Hidden gem in Burnaby North, best Japanese/Korean venue on Hastings in Burnaby. Definitely the best tempuras in Lower Mainland that I've ever eaten; light and crispy thin batter, not greasy at all. Restaurant overall cleanliness well maintained, convenient parking, exceptionally pleasant and attentive staff. Highly recommended for anyone wishing a happy meal with friends or families for reasonable pricing for similar venues in area.”

“I recently visited Green Leaf Sushi and had a pretty decent experience overall. The service stood out as very good—staff were attentive and friendly, which added a nice touch to the meal. The décor, on the other hand, felt a little “so-so,” nothing bad but nothing particularly memorable either.
In terms of food, I tried several dishes: the seaweed salad, beef teriyaki don, wild salmon sashimi, and agedashi tofu. The sashimi was fresh and enjoyable, and the beef teriyaki don was hearty, though fairly standard. The agedashi tofu was crisp and pleasant, and the seaweed salad was refreshing. Everything was solid, though not mind-blowing.
Overall, I’d say it was an **okay experience**—not bad at all, but not exceptional either. Prices are definitely on the higher side, which makes the value feel a bit stretched given the quality and atmosphere.
Would recommend if you’re in the area and don’t mind paying a little extra for good service and decent sushi.”

“Hosting our wedding at Riverway was definitely one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. It is such a beautiful and centrally-located venue. The ceremony space is right by the water and is truly so stunning in the summer. The indoor reception space is large with wooden beams and natural lighting, which meant we didn’t have to invest in as much décor as well as it was already naturally beautiful. Bradley is such an incredibly kind and patient person – we had so many questions in the months leading up to the wedding, and he answered all of them in such a timely and thoughtful manner. He was so helpful for our rehearsal as well and he even checked in with us in-person on the day of, to congratulate us and to make sure we were enjoying ourselves. We feel so lucky that we worked with Bradley for the wedding – even though he must deal with so many couples, he definitely made us feel cared for and was a big reason for why we were so happy with our venue choice.
Additionally, because the venue is owned by the City of Burnaby, we really appreciated that there were no hidden fees that we had to account for such as administrative fees, taxes, or service charges. The bartending and event staff were also very attentive and kind, and the buffet line ran very efficiently despite that we had 200+ guests. We got so many compliments from our family and friends on how beautiful the wedding was and most importantly, how delicious the buffet was (in particular, the mashed potatoes, striploin, and sticky toffee pudding). We feel so lucky that we were able to snag a spot in the summer for our wedding at Riverway – it is definitely one of the best venues in Metro Vancouver and we would highly recommend it to any couple!

“We were staying at the hotel while my hubby had heart surgery and ate there our first night. THE FOOD AT ATMOSPHERE IS AMAZING!! The second night I made an order online but accidentally pushed the Westshore location...(I'm in Saanich) when I was pointed out my mistake the young man up front went to talk to his manager Jenn! She had my order ready so fast! No questions asked! It was very busy in there for a Wednesday night! You guys are awesome. Thankyou again! We will be back to the hotel Accent Inn and Bin 4!”

“Had one of those meals that made you leave feeling happy and satisfied. Came on a Saturday night and the place filled up quickly and the K-pop music made the space lively (our 2.5y/o daughter kept dancing the whole night). Food wait was around 30 minutes, but when it came, everything came! The spicy beef intestine hot pot was awesome if you like organs, very well-seasoned. Everyone loved the seafood pancake, which was very crispy and had a loads of filling. Japchae portion was huge and very tasty. My favorite was the bossom and jokbal (braised pork hock) dish! Super tender, gelatinous and flavorful, highly recommend. The kettle Vanmak makgeoli helped us wash down all that food, which we had to pack half of it to go. Great meal and value, will definitely return!”

“By far one of the best Italian restaurants in the greater Vancouver area. I order weekly, and make sure to bring every out of province visitor for a good time with outstanding food. During my last visit, we had lots of nonnas eating there for a birthday celebration, which shows the authenticity of the food.
If I were to say anything not great, is that I wish they were open later than 9 pm.”

Sushi • $$
“I was happy to see a Sushi Restaurant back again. Even meaning to try it out, so stopped in last week to grab a menu. Decided to try it out for a late lunch today. I am so glad I did. The decor is very nicely done, and the atmosphere is friendly and intimate(although I did takeout, but just giving my impressions). The staff was super friendly and helpful. The quality of the food was spectacular, and as I had ordered a lunch special, the value for the amount I spent was great. I will be going back...often. I think it was only $13.95 for "Vege Set A", and it was a filling meal. It came with Miso Soup, Salad, 6pc Yam Tempura Roll, and 8pc Vegetable Roll. I tried something different in going with Veggies, but that Vegetable Roll will be on my next order for sure.
Thanks so much, Haku Sushi for a great meal at an awesome price, which has become rare to find in this day and age.
Vegetarian options: The 8pc Vegetable Roll was simply awesome. It had Cucumber, Avocado, Pickled Radish, and Pickled Squash. It was very tasty and flavourful.”

“I actually only ordered from them for the first time a few days ago, The lady said I shouldn't order Ginger beef with Lemon Chicken so I got Mongolian beef instead that time. The food was definately good enough to order again. Good food reasonable prices. But they make mistakes. I ordered Sweet and Sour pork, GINGER beef and Chicken Chow Mein. They sent Sweet and sour pork, SWEET AND SOUR BEEF, and Chicken Chow Mein. Why would anyone order two Sweet and sour. A little upsetting. I don't want to read too much into it, but it sort of feels like she's trying to teach me lesson.”

“I tried this place when they first opened but wasn't impressed by the food. But I live very close by and decided to give them another shot. First off the service from the moment I walked in the door was warm and welcoming. Especially since I just came from the gym and wasn't exactly dressed for dining. I asked for the best pasta dish, the host recommended the Cavatelli boscaiola and I certainly wasn't disappointed. The flavour was on point! Personally I realize that I'm not a fan of thick pasta so will probably order spaghetti or Linguini next time. I look forward to dining here soon since I did take out this time.”

As I do eat gluten free I was glad to hear that this place offers gluten free options for some of my favourite dishes. I was very pleased with the taste of the food, presentation, portion and price. I will recommend this place to people if they have not tried it yet!
Our order consisted of Crispy ginger beef, spicy garlic prawns and BBQ pork fried rice.”

“Came here on a weekend evening, and it was fairly quiet. We ordered the volcano roll, house roll, chef’s special roll, and the tuna bite. Portion is on the smaller side, and flavour is decent but there is nothing too special. Most of the sauces use a red pepper base so the special rolls do taste a bit peppery. The staff was also very friendly and environment was cozy.”

“We ordered our wedding cake with Fortuna and were extremely pleased with the outcome. Working with Luisa was easy and she made sure to help us stay within our budget. The cake tasting was super helpful as well to figure out the flavour and icing we wanted. Also they were super generous in adding flowers to the cake that matched my wedding flowers. Luisa also personally delivered the cake for a small price all the way to Pitt Meadows so that she could make sure it arrived safely. The guests loved the cake as well! Highly recommend Fortuna for your wedding cake!!!”

“Made significant improvements since I first started coming here. Honoured the birthday deal stacked with the student deal. Food was fresh and service was prompt. Restaurant is generally clean. An excellent choice for hot pot and a great late night option. Ideally suited for parties of 4-6 but can accommodate for larger parties. They are quite busy so it might be a good idea to reserve a table”

I agree with others regarding price being a bit costly for what it is but then again price is up for everything at this time. It was a fair priced meal and not what I would call a steal of a deal. I would return and try their happy hour menu and the occasional lunch.”
Seafood
“The atmosphere was very nice and spacious, and I really liked the design itself.
I had the white Sangria. It was sweet, but I didn't taste the alcohol as much, but it was still refreshing.
The calamari was good, very crispy, and paired well with the sauce.
The Lobster Dip was good. It did have chunks of lobster as well, and they weren't small, a good size ratio compared to the dip.
The half order clams, was really good. I had it with the white wine cream sauce. That sauce was sooo good I was finishing the rest of it with a spoon. It was creamy and hit the spot.
I LOVED THE OYSTERS. Some were small, but they were so fresh. It's $2 for happy hour. I appreciated how fresh it was and will come back again for it.
Overall it was a great experience. Service was excellent, food was delicious. I'll have to come back again to try other dishes.. or by myself for the oysters.
Edit:
I came back a second time and we had the Lobster + prawn mac and cheese, Poke bowl, seared tuna nicoise salad, and the fish and chips.
The Lobster and prawn mac and cheese was probably the best I've had. I'll most likely order it everytime I come here. The seared tuna was delicious, would also get this again. The fish and chips you can choose an option of one or two fish. It was not overly battered and cooked perfectly. The poke bowl was super fresh. And of course had oysters here! Tuesdays are $2 oysters. Still very fresh.”
