Comfort Food Restaurants near North Vancouver, BC

“This is a great place. It’s one of those eateries on the North Shore that is a must visit. Menu is not elaborate but that’s why this place works. They do what they do really well. The cost is also very reasonable. Apparently they have been around for 4 yrs. I spoke to who I believe was the owner and he was super nice as well. Would definitely recommend.“

“Excellent everything! We split a salad, I had the carpaccio, he had the burger, we shared the panna cotta. Atmosphere, service, food, wine, patio, price point = perfection. Highly recommend.“

“Cozy atmosphere, great selection of delicious food!“

“We ordered the soft tofu soup and deep-fried soy garlic chicken. The tofu was silky and flavorful, generously filled with seafood. I initially worried it wouldn’t be filling, but it proved satisfying. The fried chicken was exceptionally juicy and tender. I highly recommend this restaurant—the current rating doesn’t reflect its quality. It deserves to be closer to a perfect five. Give it a try; you won’t regret it.“

“Healthy and yummy.,good services and staff.“

“Amazingly delicious. Everything we had was amazing“

“I came here for dinner with my high school friends from England for a little get together before the wedding! The service was outstanding and I can’t thank my server enough. The food was on time and raving reviews and we had such a lovely night.

Awesome spot. Awesome service and outstanding food“

“If you love bold flavors and a good spice challenge, Curry Soup Garaku is the place to be! Their spice levels range from 1 to 40, making it perfect for everyone—from mild spice lovers to heat daredevils. I tried Level 30 (definitely not for the faint of heart!) and had to tap out after a few bites, but their lassi was a lifesaver. My partner finished Level 30 like a champ, though not without breaking a sweat!

I ended up switching to Level 5 and absolutely loved it—so flavorful and balanced. The curry soup is rich, comforting, and packed with delicious ingredients. They also have $1 chicken wings during happy hour, which are a great addition to the meal.

The staff was friendly, and the atmosphere is cozy, perfect for a fun date night or a casual hangout. Highly recommend for anyone looking to try something unique and exciting!“

“always delicious. always fun!“

“Was incredible, both my partner and I loved it“

“There is no competitor in Vancouver you can get handmade noodle and soup from the scratch under $10. Brisket was perfect and you can ask for lean meat. Noodle refill was $1.5? Per. It felt almost free. Some fried dishes are tough to chew as it won't cut well in your mouth. The Services....are sometimes non exist, but hey, we get the same services in most noodle places and this place is at least a lot cleaner. One sharble washroom might be a cons. Still the best udon in Vancouver!!“

“Cozy atmosphere, great selection of delicious food!“

“The employees are wonderful, they are extremely helpful and knowledgeable about the local area and surrounding areas. I really liked the Thunder from Down Under Parmie.“

“Was so good..had one today for the first time at the Nanaimo VegFest..you should bottle that sauce 😍“

“I ❤️the dime. every time I come here I see everyone I know and their baby mamas I love the bartenders they so chill. Only sad thing about this place is that they got rid of the ice cream sandwich

“Beautiful room and great food.“

“Excellent dishes. We were a table of 10 with no reservation, but when arrived there were only 6 other diners. Very long time to have our order taken (too few staff perhaps🤷🏼‍♂️). But excellent dishes from spicy beef noodle soup and beef tendon to tofu and crispy chicken.“

“I was looking forward to enjoying the spring salad. When I got it. I was disappointed that the spiced pecans were missing. When I mentioned this to our server, she told me I there were no pecans because they were'experiencing a shortage. I think that she should have told me this when I placed my order as I probably would have ordered something else.“

“This place is such a gem, if you have a great attitude and a great sense of fun then this is the place for you. The staff is impeccable and the music is sublime, make sure this is a stop on your wayward Vancouver journey, you won’t be disappointed!!!“

“Very delicious 🤤 and the attention is great“

“This location has no line up and not crowded at all unlike the metrotown location. Always love the vibe of having BP with friends and family especially after hiking or snowboarding. The best comfort and warm food you can get around that area after dark.“

“Upon entering, they have a number system, make sure you grab a number.
The staff here is very very polite and friendly. Our server even asked us if it's our first time here, and what she would recommend. The lunch combos come with a complementry drink. Our drinks were delicious. We didn't drink the majority of it because we didn't want to fill ourselves up before our hotpot.

My friend got the Korean hot pot. It is nicely spiced, exceeds generous in portion and she said she would order this again.
She didn't realize that the hot pot had ramen noodles inside it. This combo comes with a side of rice too. I got the seafood and tofu hot pot. I also didn't realize that it had vermecelli noodles in it, and my combo came with a complementry choice of vermecelli noodles or rice. Word of caution, ask the server if the hotpot has any noodles inside it first, before choosing your complementary side. Also come hungry because it's a whole lot of food. We ended up taking our free beverages with us back to the dog park. It was perfect, no complaints.

Our meals were delicious. My friend loved how they refill our hotpot with broth, and not water. It's a pet peeve we got lol. If your hot pot gets too hot you can ask the server to put out the flame.
Would we come back? Based upon our own experience, we had a great lunch here. So yes.“
