We ordered the crispy rice, pho poutine, beef skewers and ceviche. Everything was 11/10 and our server was lovely! Will be paying another visit when we come back to Van.

I have driven by this spot several times and finally went and now I’m obsessed !! It’s inventive and delicious and their happy hour process are amazing. I want locals to find this place cause it deserves it!! Atmosphere is fun but don’t look too closely at the crazy wall paper in the ladies room. Nothing matches. It’s hilarious. But no matter. The food carries the day.

loved the aburi crispy rice with imitation crab, pho bo was good but there’s similar places with bigger portions and cheaper.
drinks are unique and we got the shiso melon and thai milk tea.

i ordered the creamchi udon on uber. everything about it was good, from the bite of the kimchi, the addition of tiny pieces of mint (or shiso?), the texture of the udon, the amount of sauce, the seasoning.... but? why? did it smell and taste so much like cardboard/paper packaging?? even though i plated the food and pushed the package to the other end of the room? i had to throw most of it out after a valiant effort.
i really wanted to like it and i feel like it should have been so good, but the overwhelming taste and smell of cardboard packaging just ruined the whole thing. the food was at most in the container for an hour or two; i have never had this experience with any other delivery food, even when i leave leftovers in the container for a few days. i wanted to review on uber directly, but there was no option for some reason... so i am here to beg you to change your take out packaging, at least for this dish, because i strongly suspect the package lining melted into the hot oil or something.
(there is, however, a possibility that it was perhaps something about the mussels. i am planning to change my stars accordingly by going in-store and re-tasting this dish.)
Great food and good prices during happy hour, came here twice and had a very enjoyable experience, everything else was great as well.

This Vietnamese restaurant was a pleasant experience overall. The place is clean, bright, and has a relaxed atmosphere, making it a nice spot to grab a meal with friends or family.
For the beef dish in the photo, the staff explained that the beef is lightly scalded instead of fully cooked in boiling broth, so it’s served less hot than you might expect. It’s a unique touch, but honestly, the flavor wasn’t as impressive as I hoped. The meat was tender, but I’d probably try something else next time.
Their pho, on the other hand, was definitely a highlight. The broth was aromatic and layered with flavor, not greasy at all, and the noodles had a smooth, silky texture. The side dishes were also tasty, well-seasoned, and came in a nice variety, making them perfect to enjoy alongside the mains.
What really stood out was the service. The staff were not only friendly but also very knowledgeable. They answered every question clearly and confidently, which made the whole experience feel comfortable and easy.
Overall, I’d definitely recommend coming here for their pho and side dishes. The environment is cozy, the service is excellent, and it’s a solid choice if you’re craving a good, comforting bowl of noodles. The beef dish, though, is something I’d personally skip next time.

Great mix of modern and classic Vietnamese! It was like fusion within Asian dishes and worked well for us. We particularly liked scallop/ prawn ceviche and enjoyed its use of fresh herbs and spices. Serving size was good in all dishes. They also got great cocktails with Asian elements. They don’t skimp on alcohol, either.

This is one of the most underrated places in Vancouver. My daughter and I went for a late evening meal on a Wednesday evening. We had the truffle wontons, salmon Aburi, and Pho Poutine. All 3 were delicious. We had there Miso Apple pie for dessert which was a huge serving and equally amazing. Worth the trip and amazing value Will be back for sure…
Love how they’re open late for late night snacks!
