“I went to the store few weeks ago, and bought squash soup and chick pea veg soup. I haven't visited since Meister passed, I'm glad his nephew has taken over the business. My husband had chick pea veg soup first, it was very yummy.“
“We have now gotten take out 3x in a row from here so I feel like it’s safe to say that we love this place! It has been challenging to find good and reasonably priced South East Asian take out and this is so much better than what I was expecting! I feel like I’m eating the food of my childhood. So far, we’ve had just the Pineapple Fried Rice and Coconut Curry Soup and both have been fantastic! The Gyozas are also very good! I took a point off for atmosphere because I don't think this is the kind of place that is intended for dine-in anyway, but it's clean and fairly spacious for the size should you wish to stay. The food was also ready right on time and the portion size was quite generous.“
“We tried the platter which was absolutely delicious. The taste of each item in the platter was different from the other and is above and beyond expectations. About biryani’s my personal favourite is vijaywada chicken biryani. The chicken is so well marinated and soft. And the biryani rice so amazing. I would love to visit this place again. Highly recommended for people who love biryani.“
“One of my favorite places to go to when craving korean bbq! The food here is absolutely delicious and the server is extremely friendly and kind! The restaurant itself is also clean as well! I highly recommend this place and anyone should come and eat here sometime :)“
“Excellent food and service. Their grilled chicken panini is a must have item. Little, hole in the wall diner, but definitely worth popping in to (the regular customers are testament to that). The entire menu is fantastic and fresh and the staff is super friendly.“
“PHO H&P has become our go-to Vietnamese restaurant after another restaurant became a disappointment.The pho broth is rich and tastes authentic. No hint of msg, which is a plus for us. The pho noodles is cooked just right, and the restaurant is generous in giving out toppings.Definitely worth a try with its affordable prices.***Post a review on Google and get a free beverage. This is an honest review though. Not influenced by the free beverage.***“
“We walked by after getting our nails done at Charming and this restaurant smelled SO GOOD that we couldn't resist going in for lunch. Now we make it a date, nails in one spot, lunch in the other! Amazing coffee, super tasty dishes, wonderful friendly service and an amazingly upbeat ambiance. Traditional Eastern European food from Serbia and surrounding peoples! Nice clean bathroom too!Parking: About 8 spots shared in the three-business complex. Free street parking as well!Wheelchair accessibility: Ground floor parking and entrance.“
“Went for a quick lunch with a friend. I got the BLT with tomato soup. It was very tasty. The bacon was perfectly cooked and the sourdough was crispy and delightful. The soup was a nice combination. My friend got their chocolate croissant and she very much enjoyed it also. Customer service was great. Will be back again!“
“I read that the sandwiches were good and indeed the egg sandwich I had was superb!!! The toast was crisp, the ingredients were generous, tasted fresh and went so, so well together. I was really FULL after half a sandwich. Definitely a worthy and delicious purchase. As someone mentioned; no tipping charge for takeaways which is really appreciated“
“Literally a hidden gem. If you haven't tried their soup and sandwiches yet, you must!!! So delicious. We had the ham sandwich, egg salad sandwich and ham + pea soup and lentil bacon soup. All was soooo good. We even went back for seconds ?“
“Just discovered this place today and it was such an amazing experience. Great food as well, not like the ones I've always had which are sometimes too salty or too bland, this one is just fantastically balanced flavors. Would definitely come back with my friend!“
“It would take a minute to figure out the menu. If you are looking for fast food dimsum, this is as good as it gets. I would recommend the siu Mai, stay away from the hagao. I'm pretty sure I'll return, and will post an update once I've tried the other stuff on the menu.“
“O-Cha stands in stark contrast to the rest of Yaletown in that it’s soulful and welcoming while also being high quality and expertly curated. Wilson is both knowledgeable and personable and clearly enjoys making customers happy. Anyone who visits O-Cha will be able to find something that suits them.“
“Love coming here for a quick and delicious lunch in the middle of a busy shift. The owners and staff are so lovely and friendly. Really enjoyed the chicken ceasar wrap and salted double chocolate cookie. Would highly recommend to anyone looking for a fresh and healthy meal or snack!“
“I love the pork chasiu ramen with garlic sauce while my husband enjoys his ramen with spicy sauce. Rich & hearty broth. We both like the perfectly cooked extra egg. The honey lemon soda was a great combination of bitter, sweet and sour flavor, very refreshing on a warm day. They have clean bathrooms. Happy to come back.“
“Phenomenal Sandwich. This place is spot on for an amazing experience. For a person like myself who hates mustard, this place has the most amazing house mustard.( I love it). I tried the Porchetta & Feature McMeatball both were top notch. Their bread was amazing flavorful and crisp but still soft inside. Portions were great, definitely filling. Prices were spot on for the insane quality. Friendly Staff. Clean Establishment. Fast Service. Cozy Atmosphere“
“Authentic Cantonese food. The food has "Wok Hay". Really good fried rice, sweet and sour pork, house special tiger prawn, chicken corn soup or hot and sour soup. I haven't tasted anything that is not good there and I have been eating Cantonese food all my life.“
“I love this place! The food is delicious and affordable. The owners are the nicest people. They have a fun game where if you can guess the weight of your salad in grams you get it for free! I'll never guess right but it's always a good time. Did I mention the food is delicious? I think this place might be the best kept secret in the entire mall.“
“Really awesome food. The place is tucked away, and the entrance is in between the other shops.The chef is very friendly and customized the dish. Really fresh, simple and awesome. Portions were probably one of the largest I have seen.Do not let the location deter you.Will highly recommend and definitely coming back the next time I am here.“
“Hong Phat is a great restaurant for South Vietnamese (Do not get it mixed up with North Vietnamese Pho as it is very different style) comfort food. I was introduced to this place by my girlfriend and we go there once in a while to enjoy their food. Had a chance to try their new menu today and they added a few new items on there. As always, it was a pleasant meal. The staff overall is very courteous and helpful when taking order and helping out. Highly recommended for lunch/brunch for a good price in the current economy! The Salted Caramel Coffee is a MUST HAVE for those who are coffee drinkers! It is a great combination of the South Vietnamese coffee robusta beans with a nice layer of salted foam on the top. Great balance of the coffee.“
“I’ve come here a lot! I always order tteokbokki and kimbab! I love that you get a teapot of soup when you first enter and that you can pick the spicy level of the tteokbokki. It’s the best tteokbokki in ktown in my opinion and I have tried it at many locations in the area! It is also the best value!“
“Food is exactly what I expected for a little dinner/cafeteria. Counter staff are really nice. It's just a few tables and chairs inside. I went there during a time of day where I could eat and read a book. I imagine early and at noon they are quite busy.“
“For years relied on an upscale dim sum place with a location in Richmond and one on Main St., but had an unpleasant experience post pandemic. Have tried a couple of other places with mixed results and ended up here on Sunday. It did not disappoint - authentic, reasonably priced and delicious with some of the best service ever for a dim sum place. Sizeable menu, some items only after 11 am, large portions. Most the "usual" suspects on offer with a couple of fun twists per below. The individual portions of siu mai, hat gow etc were larger than most places and in addition, there was often one or two more pieces than one would normally have in an order. Xo sauce chunky but on point and reasonable cost, no charge for tea. Free parking out back if driving. One day I will figure out how to order Worcestershire in my bad mandarin and not get ketchup... Will be returning for sure“
“I was referred by a friend to visit the place to try their $10.99 special. Fish filets with cream corn sauce on rice was one my childhood favorite and still is. It was absolutely delicious. Fish filets are crunchy on the outside and tender on the inside. The cream corn sauce was perfectly done. It was a very good meal for $12.10 taxed in. (How do they survive with the pricing during these times? ?). Will return to try other stuff on the menu!“
“Porchetta is starting to sit out and get preparred too much in advance, was cold. Most significant change, they are falling victim to shrinkflation. Sandwhiches are getting smaller. Nearly 15$ sandwhich now with tax don't cut down on the meats. Otherwise a good high end sandwhich place.“

“A delicious, healthy unexpected find!When travelling, i find it difficult as a vegetarian to get healthy food that has protein. Tractor fit the bill! I ordered a bowl and it hit all my macros and was delicious! Usually, the portions of vegetarian protein are meagre but Tractor offered a large portion of tofu to add to my bowl and i was very happy to get adaquate protein for the one meal.The service was amazing too! The young man (assistant manager?) Was so personable and friendly. He was very enthusiastic about the food and making recommendations for my partner.Highly recommend. I would eat here multiple times per day next time i come to Vancouver to ensure i get healthy delicious fresh food!Vegetarian options: Lots of options, clearly labelledDietary restrictions: Great for those wanting to eat healthy food and counting macros“
“Food was great and tasted wonderful. We ordered a bunch of food to share, Oxtail Kare Kare, binagoongang baboy and crispy Pata. Bit pricey but I guess you pay for the quality.The seating was quite uncomfortable as it had tears and tape on it but all okay apart from that.Nice business ran by good people. Great community here.“
“I absolutely love their fresh sandwiches and soups all made from scratch and the menu is very affordable. My favourite sandwiches are the BBQ Pulled Pork and Pesto Chicken which is bursting with flavour. I love all of their soups although some of the soups are a little too salty for me. They also sell a lot of their soups in pouches that you can take home and warm up yourself which I like.“

“A hidden gem in Fairview! I saw a local community member post on a Facebook group about this place and HAD to give it a try.SO tasty, great product and quality, super fresh. I feel good supporting local and hope this review entices other locals to give it a try ;)“
“PROS:Have really on tried the spicy beef noodle soup, bbq pork fried rice, duck fried rice, and spicy won tons. They all have been tasty or satisfactory. No complaints in the taste department from me.CONS:I used to eat here twice a week at least when they had the 10% off when ordering online, but since the removal, I have eaten there a few times since last year.The price is similar to restaurant food, so a bit expensive considering it is food court food. Maybe this is due to the addition of the "free" drink. Maybe it is now due to the cost of food.The "free" drink included with some of the items should be removed. One reason is because of the cup fee in Vancouver. The other is that I don't care much for the drinks. Choice would be nice and hopefully will reduce the price of the meal and reduce unnecessary waste.“

“I strolled in after work on a rainy day to warm up with a bowl of soup. The man working that evening was an absolute delight. He was attentive, patient and friendly. I couldn’t decide what I wanted and he was kind enough to offer that I try before I buy (always much appreciated). I’m so glad I did because I went with the ‘ginger chilli tomato’ soup and it was exactly what I needed in that moment. As someone who values service first, this place hit the mark. I don’t mind spending a little extra for extraordinary service. Thank you to the OV location staff!“
“Perfect for when you're craving meat....and bread.The meatball sub was incredible. Each bite, delicious, saucy, messy. The spices inside the meatball were very apparent in the best way. Kale works very well.Only downside? The drink options. They were craft soda options when I would've preferred cheaper options like Coke Zero.But if that's the worst thing at a sandwich shop, it's pretty great, right?“
“Food & ambience are really good . The service not so good the waitresses were chatting we called 3x no one seemed to notice until our 4th call and waving to get their attention. There were only 2 tables with customers at that time .I will still return because the food are “
“I had the basic Pho with just steak. It was very good with ample beef and not too many noodles, lots of basil and sprouts. The broth was balanced and not too sweet or salty. Free tea is a bonus. Prices are quite reasonable for these times. If I could ask for one thing, it would be a better chili oil on the table as they only had a hot sauce, but to be fair, I didn't ask for it, so maybe they have it.If you crave a steaming hot bowl of noodle soup, you can't go wrong with this place.“
“Amazing broth! The flavouring is on point. The food comes out fast and hot and delicious. The staff are always cheerful and attentive.The only drawback is the miserable lack of parking, even without the massive construction going on atm.“
“Superb performance Pho broth. Good portions and quick friendly service . The server even checked with us later if we were enjoying our meal . One of the best pho places in vancouver hands down. I also enjoyed their deep fried chicken appetizer.“
“A great place to get a healthy take out option! Service is quick and well priced.Vegetarian options: Tofu is available, it is seasoned with chili lime. How spicy this option is varies on seasoning.Dietary restrictions: Be careful of sodium in certain options. I suggest looking up their menu which seems to change slightly based on season.“
“This hidden gem is a staple in east/south Vancouver. I’ve been coming here for years.Prices have increased but you’re still getting more value and quality here.If you’re looking for south Chinese Cantonese style food, it’s here. This place gets really busy and packed full of people quickly. Reservations are highly recommended.Our families, friends, and co workers, always get the family set menu. It comes with soup, rice, entree items, and dessert.Not many people know this but you can also bring them your fresh seafood and they can cook it for you the way you like. The boss lady will decide the charge. They also do a cork fee if you decide to bring your own bottle of alcohol. Also cash only!If you’re a regular the service staff will take care of you. If your not then your service is going to be a hit or miss.Miss the old days when they had a late night menu after 9:30pm.“
“Super cute little place soup is delish and fresh. They offer loads of frozen food too for take away.I got the roast garlic and tomato soup with a toasted cheese sandwich came out to about 13$ so reasonably priced and yummy. Will definitely come back.Vegetarian options: Vegetarian soups and sambos not sure about veganParking: Only a few on street parking which can be very full and a max of 3hr stays“
“Hong Kong style cafe in a very busy mall in VancouverIt’s my first time here and I think it’s affiliate with Amigo restaurant in Richmond as menu and taste are similiarLunch set prices are pretty good with soup , toast , main dish + drinksAs I on low carb diet it cost $6 additional to substitute rice with stir fry veggieSteak was good tender and juicyMilk tea rich in flavorService was average always interesting to run into server with attitude, but still very politeThere are 2 hours free parking and the parking lot was super super busyParking: Free parking lot but the lot was really busy2 hours free parking“
“I'm delightfully impressed by the service and freshness of the salads. I made a mistake in thinking my Mediterranean bowl came with a pita bread , the picture on the menu showed a large piece of pita bread. I complained, and the gentleman patiently explained it it was the the "salad" version that featured the pita bread. He was generous and gave me a complimentary bread.“

“Highly recommend tractor for a quick, easy and tasteful lunch. The avocado and chicken baguette was delicious and very filling. The customer service was second to none even though there was a queue the staff were very professional and efficient. If you have a sweet tooth I would also recommend the dark chocolate banana bread!“
“Tried it on DoorDash for the first time, reviews said the porchetta sandwich, so I ordered it. But… I wouldn’t order it again.I found it to be too fatty.. and the texture of pork fat everywhere. Not enough crackling, or maybe it got soggy from the oil in the sandwich?I got tomato soup, not sure if it was supposed to come with any toppings, but it didn’t.The bread was unreal.. but again, the oil from the meat made the bread soggy.“

“This place opened 3 months ago (July/23) and someone already recommended it to me because I love lamb. The lamb noodles I had were on point, especially the broth. I drank almost all of it. And the spicy cumin lamb chop was perfect! I even went back to get more for others to try. It’s without a doubt I’ll be back to try other menu items. This place is in Aberdeen Mall, upstairs in the food court and, unlike many of the other stalls, they accept credit cards. Yeah! Also, the noodle soups come in 3 sizes.“
“Had an incredible lunch experience at Le Petit Café in North Vancouver with friends. The owner, Ashley, went above and beyond to make us feel at home with her friendliness and warm welcome. The coffee was outstanding, and the flavors in their sandwiches and wraps were unparalleled, easily some of the best in North Vancouver. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a cozy spot with delicious food and great coffee. A true gem in the area!“
