50 Best Vietnamese Restaurants near North Vancouver

“These guys delivered delicious food after Skip The Dishes messed up, shout out to a business owner who delivers food themselves at the end of a long day to keep a customer happy!!“

“There aren’t enough words for how incredible the food is. Its only competition is the welcoming and wonderful service. Everyone is so nice and eager to please, they’re quick & the food is un-be-lieve-able! Every time my boyfriend eats the Singapore fried noodles he murmurs “this is so good”. As a vegetarian myself, menus are usually limited, however the veggie options here are various and so freaking delicious. Limiting myself to going here once a week is a challenge!“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

V-Nam is hands down my favorite local spot in the Shipyards! Everyone is incredibly friendly, and the food is consistently amazing. My go-to dishes are the rare beef and brisket pho, which is so flavorful and comforting, the Hawaiian fried rice, and the spring rolls that are always perfectly crispy. I’m also obsessed with the grilled lemongrass chicken salad rolls—so fresh and delicious! Well priced and offers late delivery too! Highly recommend this gem to anyone craving authentic Vietnamese cuisine!“

“My friend and I were headed home from Whistler, and were tired of driving. It was dark, and we needed to find a great bowl of Pho. What we found at Pho Spot was even better than imagined. I had a vegan pho with added tofu, and he had traditional chicken, Pho Ga. Both were delicious and plentiful; veggies a plenty, and the strips of chicken were tender and fresh. The staff were very very friendly and gracious. We will remember to come here after every hike; in any season, and I will remember to bring my friends!“

“Was craving a bowl of pho and found this place.
It has all the classic items I like. Portion sizes are filling and affordable. Nothing fancy. You get a small plate of bean sprouts, a lime wedge 🍋‍🟩, thai basil, and different sauces (hoisin, sriracha, chilli oil).

Pho came out steaming hot. I like how the beef has a thicker cut and doesn’t have the frozen texture to it. Broth is mild with a sweet note at the end. Really appreciate the finer texture of the chilli oil. No whole seeds to get stuck in my teeth. If you’re scared of strong spices, this is the soup to get 😋 If your tastebuds are bored, add more sauce.

One thing that amuses me is when I hear customers coughing from the spice of the food. Will have to come back and try more items.“

“It is a pretty small place, and I almost missed it from the outside. The food was decent overall. I tried the lemongrass grilled chicken rice, and it was quite good for my taste — flavorful, not too salty, and the soup was also nicely balanced.

The service was warm and attentive, which I appreciated. Prices are reasonable, and I would be open to coming back to try some of the other dishes.“

“Finally got here. Nothing but good things. Place was swamped. Still got seated within 15 minutes. Staff were friendly and on top of it all! Food came fast, hot, and delicious. Definitely be back and highly recommend.“

“free spring roll for giving a review! the food was good. the pad Thai was yummy. the pho noodle was plain but the broth was nice. the food was very filling. only thing id note about was one employee was talking to someone on phone very loudly near the kitchen. not bad thing to me because it felt like I was in a mom and pop shop which I enjoyed, but sometimes it was too loud. the server was otherwise welcoming and they were efficient. the food came pretty quickly. good experience overall.“

“Best sandwich I had in a long while! Spring rolls on point as well.“

“It was awesome, great food, fantastic drinks and unbelievable company! ❤️❤️❤️“

“Generous portion, amazing service, best combination of Vietnamese and Thai cuisine“

“One of the best restaurant in Richmond !
I’ve been going to Valmont cafe for over a year and always have Amazing dishes . The atmosphere is warm, professional, and incredibly clean. Jenny does the best Vietnamese sub , noodles soup is one of my favourite . Specially that the restaurant has Robot services , brings foods to each table 😃“

“The pho here is DELICIOUS. I was looking for a place to eat at downtown in this cold and rainy weather, and I stumbled across this hidden gem! I ordered a bowl of Pho, and might I say, it was the best bowl of pho EVER!! The warm rich broth really warmed me up and the my server was also very polite :) The portion is very generous with a fair price. This restaurant will definitely be my go-to viet restaurant from now on.“

“Found my Vietnamese food utopia!
Everything we ordered was perfect!
No words…so satisfying and I was drenched with sweat after my hearty bowl of Bún Bò Hué.

On the side note, to the one who reviewed and gave a ONE star rating…please stay home. Food critiquing is not for everyone.“

“Superb! Amazing customer service and atmosphere…. The food oh my goodness! My absolutely favourite restaurant in the lower mainland ♥️“

“awesome food, fast friendly service 🥢⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐“

“Had some excellent sharing plates (4). loved the spring rolls wrapped in lettuce and the mushroom "wings" . Make a rez, it is a small space.“

“Amazing sandwiches and salad rolls!! so fresh and delicious. Highly recommend!“

“We had the BEST feed last night from Ongba. Coming home from our Fringe run we were too tired to cook - and boy am I glad. The portions were generous, the rolls on the Banh Mi were so fresh, loved all the pickled bits and curry mayo...the Prawn Salad rolls with dipping sauce were huge and tasty...it was exactly what we wanted. The guy on the phone made double sure he had our order correct which I appreicated. Such a cute place (with patio) but we got takeout so nobody had to watch us gobble it down like animals. Great to take to the beach too. 😋 Highly recommend!“

“Love that this place has come to my neighbourhood! Never disappoints. Would recommend!“

“Some places just enhance your experience in many ways. This place has good food for sure but also the touch of the owners to draw your sketches just elevates the whole experience. We came out for a lunch date after long time and this was one of the best dates we have had.“

“Great Vietnamese food with generous portions. We ordered stir-fry noodles and combo dishes, and everything was fresh, flavorful, and well prepared. The chicken was tender and plentiful, and the prices were very reasonable for the portion sizes. Food came out quickly and tasted authentic. Highly recommended — we’ll definitely be back!“

“Came to van 168 coffee for dinner. I had the best pho here. Kim and Linda were so friendly and fast. I ordered pho and it came fast and was nice and hot and so delicious. I highly recommend this place and will be back! The decor is nice and the place is clean.“

“Bánh mì que đỉnh nhất Vancouver. No more comment!“

“The food here is excellent! Linda (owner) is the sweetest & most kind hearted person. She & her husband who's a chef behind the scene runs this eatery. They take utmost care to all who comes hungry or not. I've known & followed her long time. Ever since the time she use to be at International Village mall food court in Chinatown location and now here in this City Centre mall. Every food & beverages she serves is made with love & care. I got to know her personally and she's an amazing person!
Wherever I'm cold & feeling sick she gives me the pho' noodles soup & she makes the hot lime tea which is instantly comforting! She's cares like a family to me. <3
I recommend her strongly. Please visit and experience the comforting & delicious meals she serves. You will absolutely love it 💯 guaranteed!!“

“This time I ordered a chicken dish with rice, and it was pretty good. The price was reasonable and quite affordable. It’s more of a casual lunch spot nothing fancy or elegant, but the service was very good. They offer water or tea, which was a nice touch.

My girlfriend ordered a beef soup, and she thought it was good as well, but nothing particularly special. Overall, our experience wasn’t bad at all, but based on the dishes we chose, we probably wouldn’t come back. Maybe they have a hidden gem on the menu that we didn’t try.

It’s a decent place for a simple, informal meal.“

“Wow! What a surprise! My girlfriend and I wondered over to this place after a massage, I was unsure at first due to the location. Once we ordered are food, I could tell the quality was top notch. This place is a hidden gem. I ordered the lemongrass chicken pho and my girlfriend got the beef stew. Who ever is in that kitchen is a true chef. This is the best pho I have ever had. The chicken came on the side and it was amazing. The beef pulled apart with the fork. Spices were rich and a perfect blend. Veggies were fresh, meat was top quality. Don’t miss out, get in there! I wish we weren’t in a rush. Pricing is perfect for the portion you get.“

“Good foods, great service, highly recommended!“

“Love the food and service here. you can tell they want to wow you with their food“

“My first visit and it was exactly how my friend describes it, great atmosphere with even greater food for one’s palette“

“Chau Cafe is such a delightful find the moment you walk in you feel welcomed by the cozy, relaxed vibe that makes it perfect for a casual lunch or dinner. The menu blends classic Vietnamese flavours with fresh, wholesome ingredients, and there are great options for vegan and vegetarian diets as well as meat lovers.
The interior is bright and inviting great for office lunch meeting or a relaxed meal by yourself and the service was prompt even when busy. Whether you’re craving bold Vietnamese flavours or just a cozy place to enjoy mindful, delicious food, this place truly shines. I recently tried the 1978 Pho Soup and the Saigon Bowl both were standouts! The pho had a rich, aromatic broth with perfect layers of lemongrass, ginger, turmeric, star anise and tender chicken it felt deeply comforting and well balanced, with great fresh herbs and noodles that soaked up the flavour beautifully. Both dishes were generously portioned and full of vibrant Vietnamese flavours perfect for a cozy lunch or dinner. 
The hand cut Taro chips were a delightful starter perfectly crispy with a hint of earthiness, and paired wonderfully with the paprika garlic tofu dip. They were so good they almost stole the show before the main course even arrived!
Overall, every dish was fresh, flavourful, and felt lovingly made. Cozy atmosphere and friendly service made the experience even better, highly recommend these must-try items if you’re craving Vietnamese food with personality!“

“My family and I have been coming here for over ten years and are very happy with the consistently amazing quality and service at this restaurant. All the food we have tried are great and make for comforting meals in all climates. Great prices for the quantity served and we are looking forward to coming back in the future!“

“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.“

“The best in town! So fast! So fresh! The people are awesome!“

“I went to Pho Tan because BBno$ said in an interview that this was one of his favourite places to eat in Vancouver. I can see why. Their peanut sauté beef pho is out of this world! I’m obsessed with it. It’s so good I highly recommend this place!!“

“This Vietnamese restaurant gave me a really good first impression. The dining environment is clean and comfortable, not too crowded or noisy, so it’s a nice place to sit down, relax, and enjoy a meal. The staff are also very friendly and welcoming, which really adds to the overall experience.

We ordered the lemongrass grilled chicken with rice. The portion of chicken was quite generous, but for my personal taste, I felt that the lemongrass aroma could have been a bit stronger. The seasoning was also on the saltier side, and the chicken was slightly dry, so it felt like it lost a bit of juiciness, which was a little disappointing. But overall, the rice and side vegetables paired well together.

We also had the tomato braised beef pho. The soup was a bit sweet for my taste, which I think might just be the restaurant’s style. Personally, I prefer a broth that’s a little more savory or balanced between sour and sweet. However, the beef itself was really delicious very tender and soft, almost melting in your mouth. I really enjoyed that part of the dish, and the ingredients tasted fresh overall.

All of these comments are just based on my own personal taste and preferences. It doesn’t mean the food is bad at all, and I’m sure many people might really enjoy these flavors. Since the environment and service were both great, I would still be happy to come back again next time and try some of their other dishes. Who knows, I might find something that suits my taste even better.“

“My wife and I just had lunch at Pho Maxima and everything was absolutely delicious. I ordered the pork spring rolls and the beef ball noodle soup pho, and my wife had the chicken ball noodle soup pho; both dishes were incredibly flavorful and comforting.

The service was amazing, and the woman who helped and served us was so kind and welcoming, which made our visit even better. This was our first time here, but it’s definitely become our new go-to spot for pho. Overall, an amazing experience from start to finish. Highly recommend!“

“A truly family owned and run hidden gem - Home cooked meals at a great place. They truly take pride in their meals. Lots of parking in the back and/or in front street parking - you will not be disappointed.“

“Tuesday Pho specials are a must! Fantastic flavours & easy on the wallet!!“

“Clean restaurant, friendly staff , fast service . Broth is yummy ! Wish the had spring rolls & price a bit higher then other pho restaurants but well worth it . Still my go to spot !“

“Pleasantly surprised by how good the food was! Cheaper than most viet restaurants as well. I had the chicken vermicelli bowl and it was a great portion, and tasted amazing. The food was fresh. Service wasn’t amazing, especially being one of two tables in the restaurant. But besides that, it was great! Definitely check it out.“

“The Pandan Iced Coffee is the perfect balance of coffee and nutty, velvety pandan flavour. I’ve tried a few different places now, and this is by far my favorite one. If you’re someone who likes a fun sweet drink, this is for you. Give up Starbucks and come here.“

“It’s mostly vegan with 3 non-vegan items specifically marked as Non-Vegan. Alas, HappyCow won’t let me give 5 stars for that reason. Tried the Vegan Chicken Salad roll, which was satisfying & healthy. Also sampled the Vegan Citrus Spare Rib Baguette, which was satisfying too (4/5) They should get credit for making their marinated vegan proteins in-house. We love supporting family-owned vegan-forward establishments, especially in busy tourist areas! Updated from previous review on 2026-04-05“

“I ordered two lemongrass chicken rice on Uber Eats. Right now, it’s buy one get one free. You could get two of these for around $26. Extremely convenient, it arrived in 10 minutes after I ordered. Portion is decent and food is alright. Would probably order again soon.“

“Great little neighbourhood Vietnamese restaurant with great food, excellent service, and reasonable prices. Good choices are any of the pho soups, spring rolls, satay or stir-fried veggies.“

“Wow did not expect to be this impressed with order out pho. The broth is fantastic, deep rich flavor with noticable star anise and smokey flavor from dry frying the spices. They do it right here this is legit pho . The Cha Gio is also one of the best I've had.“

“This restaurant is a hidden gem! The dishes were delicious, full of authentic Vietnamese flavor, and clearly made with care. The atmosphere was cozy and welcoming. The owner was incredibly kind and attentive, taking time to check in with us and make sure everything was perfect. It felt like eating at a friend’s home. I highly recommend trying this place — it’s definitely worth a visit!“

“We had an exceptional dining experience at Saigon Ivy Vietnamese Cuisine yesterday, with outstanding service and food. The new owners and menu were thoroughly impressive. Each dish was delicious, and we are eager to return and explore more options. The service was superb, and we commend the chef. Saigon Ivy Vietnamese Cuisine 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾“

“What a night with the explosive collaboration GOOD THIEF X FRANCINE’S in YYC. Thank you for coming out and for giving us a unique twist on the food that we grew up eating. It was daring, delightful and delicious! The cocktails were equally amazing! One of the defining dinners for 2026, no doubt!“
