Honestly, this was one of the worst dining experiences I’ve had in Vancouver.
We had a reservation for two, yet they stuck us in a random corner at a tiny square table where we had to sit side by side like we were sharing a school desk. Meanwhile, people who came after us got normal tables, even four seaters. Nice.
Then we ordered the Brussels sprouts… which came out totally burnt and bitter. We told the server, and her entire response was just “I know.” No apology, no fix, nothing. At that point I was more shocked than angry.
If you’re looking for great food and respectful service, this is probably not the place.
Easily goes straight to the top of my Vancouver “Do Not Return” list.

We visited this restaurant recently, and honestly, it was a disappointing experience. The space inside was very small and crowded, and we were seated at a tiny spot by the wall. One of the dishes — the sprouts — was extremely bitter, almost inedible, but when we mentioned it, the server’s attitude was quite cold. There was no apology or explanation, just a simple “I know.”
It made us feel uncomfortable, and we couldn’t tell if there was some bias behind the attitude. Even if not, this kind of service leaves a really poor impression. It’s a pity, because the restaurant seems to be doing well now, and I truly hope they can show a better attitude toward their customers in the future.

What a gem! From the moment you walk in, you are warmly greeted and beautifully taken care of. From the first sip of the Japanese Greyhound cocktail, I knew we had made a great choice in coming to Noah’s. The food was amazing! We devoured our miso duck, pork loin and Brussel sprouts, the presentation was photo worthy and the flavours even better.
Will definitely return!

Cute little tapas bar. The food was very comforting. It's perfect for this weather. It was busy but we got our food fairly quickly. I will definitely be coming back!

Unique environment, suitable for hangouts and dates! A bit on the pricier side, but the experience and environment is an extra touch! I really enjoyed the drink :) They have lots of interesting alcohol/non-alcohol options 🍹

Stopped by and caught the happy hour oysters, the Tuna, dumplings, smoked olives and a Japanese Greyhound. Nice atmosphere, the welcome is great, more places should acknowledge their clients this way.

This is one of my favourite places in Vancouver. The happy hour is great and features many of the items they are known for. Recommend the quail eggs, olives, karrage, omelette rice, and uni pasta.

Very unique exquisite Japanese restaurant in Vancouver downtown core, food very delicate and delicious. Love the smoky cocktails (we ordered Japanese Greyhoud and Earl Grey Gimlet), Uni&Truffle omelette rice, negitoro&Foccacia, and cheese tofu. The NFC (Noah’s fried chicken is so crispy outside and tender inside, taste so good!

We were visiting from Texas and this was truly the best meal of our lives. Every single dish carried its own exceptional flavor, and we sampled about 80% of the menu—each one blew us away. From start to finish, it was hands down the most special dining experience we’ve ever had. The creativity and execution here outshone even some Michelin-starred experiences I’ve had. The atmosphere, the diversity of the dishes, and the incredible flavors came together perfectly. An unforgettable 5-star experience! I’ll have to fly back to Vancouver just to eat here again.

We just came back from this restaurant. Everything was amazing. The food was delicious, and we ordered beef tartar, lamb, and dim sum. All these dishes tasted delicious. We did not book a table, so we sat in a bar, and the barman was intelligent and very polite. I was tired after a tennis game and did not want to stay in a loud place. This place is good if you would like to talk and feel a calm atmosphere. Today found one of the best restaurants in Vancouver. Thank you all staff!

Noah’s Café is such a cute spot! Super friendly staff, great vibe, and the cocktails are amazing and really unique. The menu changes often so there’s always something new to try. Cozy, relaxed, and definitely worth a visit.
