Noodles in Vancouver, BC

“Super delicious food and amazing service, very thoughtful regarding allergies as well. The food and service were so good that my friend ate his entire bowl even though he was full as not to look as if he didn’t like his ramen!!!
The broth is super creamy! Free spicy option as well and inexpensive refill.

5 stars“

“I had been wanting to come to this Udon shop for quite some time, but it was always closed when we got there. Finally, we got in.

Udon soup was perfect for a gloomy afternoon. All the staff seemed to be Japanese and the taste of the two items we ordered was authentic. It reminded me of the days I used to live in Japan.

We ordered one beef seaweed udon soup and a spicy tan tan noodle soup. Udon had a great texture, chewy but not too soft. Tan tan came with some cha siu which was the cherry on the cake.

We were served Genmaicha and were charged per person. We did not recall we were told about the charge, but it was on the menu under soft drink.

They might be on the more expensive side, but given the overall experience, it was not too bad.

Probably would come back as it is a specialized udon place after all, and I love udon.“

“Excellent food! Awesome service and beautiful outdoor patio. Love this place!!“

“Outstanding service and delicious pho! As we arrived, our server welcomed us and went through the menu with us to ensure we got something yummy. Highly recommend!“

“This was our 2nd visit in 3 weeks. We had the cauliflower and DanDan Noodles. Excellent spicy dishes carefully prepared and served. We wish we could be longer in Vancouver to be able to sample all the dishes

Vegetarian options: Great selection, many tempting options

Wheelchair accessibility: Comfortable seating“

“Authentic flavors. Great spice on the spicy dishes. The noodles are made to order and the kitchen is small so can be a bit slow. Dishes are large and priced accordingly. If you like spice the 大盘菜 is great with thinly sliced pork belly. Would not recommend thE 韭菜盒子 minimal filling and slightly flaky dough just doesn't taste right to me.“

“The Danbo Robson is always bustling, with a line of eager customers, with 20 seats available inside for these hungry zombies. The staff is efficient, ensuring quick service. The unique ramen offerings are delicious—packed with flavor and served hot. Just let it cool a bit before diving in to avoid burning your tongue. Overall, it’s a delightful experience that leaves you craving more!

Vegetarian options: One

“Great food, great service and a generally enjoyable ambience. Recommended.“

“These guys deserve way higher ratings, IMO. The chef special noodles are simple, but every ingredient is distinct and fresh. If you’re expecting something super fancy, this isn’t the place. If you just want extreme simplicity well-executed, give this place a shot.“

“True authentic Chinese wonton. Spicy but couldn't eat enough! 3 servings! It's known for its beef soup, but we had those wonton/dumplings. It's in top 5 on Google. Don't expect too much of atmosphere. Just the food. No alcohol on menu“

“Ramen Kounotori is a good choice for late late sunny afternoons or even early evenings for the following reasons: the high ceilings, the beautiful decor, the mixture of post modern chic tones of concrete, pastel, wood, and blue. It’s a mixture of a warm and cool, postmodern vibe. The ramen is tasty, up until now the first three choices have been savoured with relish and delight. Service is most charming accompanied by smiles, good wishes & pleasant sounding nihon-rhythmic flourishes. At the end of the week, and later in the evenings, the café is well attended. Ramen here can be well appreciated on a cold fall day, but no less during the rest of the year with any weather.“

“Cozy spot for noodle soup. Small menu, open kitchen, and delicious food. All of the soups are phenomenal. I haven't tried many of the appetizers, but I'm sure they're great, too. Roti+lapsang tea+soup is my go-to when I'm hungry.“

“Undoubtedly five stars. Came with a couple friends whom recommended it and was highly impressed. Our experience was so enjoyable from start to finish in all aspects with a lively vibe, delicious food and staff's bubbly energy which is some of the best I've been around. If you want attentive and friendly service with an inviting atmosphere Ramen Danbo in Kitsilano is The Place.“

“Stopped in late last night before closing, the server was all by herself and she was basically running the whole time working so hard! Watched her have to deal with and be lectured by an alcoholic, extremely entitled woman who was angry that they shut the kitchen down and couldn’t order any more food at closing time- which most people with a brain would understand. I felt so bad for the server but she did an amazing job!! Perfect place for a late night meal:)“

“Hands down some of the best Chinese food in Vancouver! The amount of flavor they pack in each dish is unreal. I’d highly recommend trying their Tan Tan Noodle, Spicy & Tangy Dumplings, Eggplant with chili & garlic and the fried green beans. Each dish was incredible with very generous serving sizes! The service was also very quick here.“

“Amazing food, great service, would definitely love to visit again.“

“Nice food and very friendly service“

“I loved this Pokerrito location! The space is modern, spacious, and clean. The menu is displayed on sleek screens, making it easy to read and understand how to build your own pokerrito, bowl, or dish. There's plenty of seating and paid street parking available. Unfortunately, the 'rice printer' malfunctioned, which caused a delay in my order, but the staff was very friendly and accommodating. The food tasted great, although they were out of avocado that day. Every ingredient felt fresh and delicious.“

“Best ramen in Vancouver. Great noodle, broth and charred chashu.

Significantly better than Danbo, Jinya, Gojiro, Maruhachi, Hokkaido.

Small joint in the mall’s food court. Owner is a one man army. He puts his heart into the food. He is very kind and always smiling. Thanks for offering amazing food.“

“We ordered the dan dan noodles (spicy), fried bean-paste noodles, and wontons in chili sauce. I had high expectations for the fried bean-paste noodles and wontons, but surprisingly, the dan dan noodles ended up being our favorite. I’m usually not a big fan of dan dan noodles, but these were very creamy, nutty, and moreish! They weren’t spicy for us, though.
The lady who took our order seemed a bit concerned that two of us were ordering three dishes, but I didn’t find the portion sizes overly large—three dishes were just right without making us feel too full.

Overall, I really enjoyed their food and would love to come back to try other dishes.
One thing to note: they only accept cash, not even debit, so come prepared!“

“After seeing some great reviews here, I was hoping for some good Vietnamese food. We ordered the House Special Pho, Banh Xeo, and Beef Stew. The pho was okay, and I appreciated that the soup wasn’t sweet like some other pho I’ve tried in Vancouver. The Banh Xeo was pretty good; I liked that it came with plenty of vegetables and was perfectly crispy.

As for the beef stew, it was my first time trying Vietnamese-style beef stew. It had a slight curry-like flavor and lacked a bit of the "kick", but I still enjoyed it with the accompanying baguette.

Overall, I liked that the food wasn’t salty or heavily seasoned. I also appreciated the young staff member, who seemed to be the owner, for consistently checking on our table throughout the meal“

“A great place for a healthy and light noodles. Food is great as well as the service. Other than preselected choices, you can pick your individual vegetables, noodle types and meat options.
The owner is very attentive to the customers, and very kind and helpful. Feels like being at home.
Recommended!!!“

“Spend long time Analyzing restaurant on google map and found this place. It didn’t disappoint me. The Bread, Siumai and noodles are really good. The ingredients are fresh and athletic. Had a chat with the owner, she told me the vegetable in the bread was shipped from China and it was grown on someone backyard. I can tell they have a passion on making good food. I would love to visit again next time in Vancouver.“

“I love this place. Service is the best“

“blown away. easily the most authentic thai green curry in vancouver. most other thai restaurants skimp out on the thai basil and lime leaf, leading to a bland curry - Not here! spring roll is beautifully seasoned. 10/10 would recommend for quick high quality cheap eats.“

“If you like good sushi, at a fair price, then you’ll enjoy Sumire sushi. A great family run restaurant with friendly staff. They make their own hot sauce and it’s delicious.“

“Came for the first time on St. Patrick’s Day. I ordered ramen and requested to remove veggies. I tried Yokohama Iekei Ramen & Karaage on my first time here. I ended up eating karaage without dipping the tartar sauce because it was better without any sauce.“

“Amazing food, great service, would definitely love to visit again.“

“The Hire Katsu was so tasty and tender, very friendly staff too.“

“I visited this restaurant with my Vietnamese friend, or I would have been utterly clueless about how to order. Bun refers to vermicelli noodles, which are distinct from Thai noodles. While the noodles were satisfactory, the soup was simply extraordinary. The fried chicken wings were the standout dish. The marinated beef was incredibly tender and lived up to its name, being exceptionally well-marinated.“

“It’s a family owned business. I see their young son helping his parents during his summer break everyday. He was very happy and even though my weight estimate was off, he gave me a hint and let me guess again for a chance to receive it for free. I was still wrong though haha. Very sweet, I will support this business again.“

“Try the Vegetarian miso ramen.“

“Definitely a hidden gem type of place. Their food is top notch and reasonably priced!

Highly recommend their braised cod and tofu hot pot, deep fried spareribs with pepper, and shrimp and bbq pork fried rice!

Will be coming back again“

“Good food. Friendly service.“

“I had an overnight stay in Vancouver, and a quick check on Google maps that showed me how close this restaurant was to my hotel. I decided to give it a try, and I’m so excited that I did. It seems like a bit of a hidden gem, tucked in off the main sidewalk. I’m glad I had my Google maps to help me find it. It was around 7 PM, there was one table with four people eating, but it seems like many takeout orders were being set up. I was greeted very promptly and friendly, I decided on dinner combo D. It was so delicious, more than enough food for some leftovers! Extremely friendly and super quick service. The food was piping hot. Large portions, love the abundance of pineapple with the sweet-and-sour pork! My favorite! The price was very comparable for the amount of food and the quality. Would definitely come back next time I’m in Vancouver.“

“Although this was not my first “Pho” experience this was my First time dining at this particular restaurant and let me tell you I will DEFINITELY be coming back. This was the absolute hands down best one I have ever been too. There spring rolls are PHENOMENAL and their beef ball soup had so many beef balls in it! WAY TO GO Le Petit Saigon!“

“More like a 4.5 rating. Randomly discovered this place through social media. It operates in coho commissary kitchen so it is takeout and delivery only. I ordered through delivery app and was able to pick up my order at a reasonable time. Got the Deluxe Bowl with grilled prawns and striploin steak, Chicken Banh Mi and Spring Rolls. The bowl and banh mi were delicious with fresh ingredients and balanced flavors. 1/2 star deducted because of the spring rolls. They were a bit too salty to be eaten on its own. Taste better with the vermicelli. Portion size was ample and I got a good deal from Uber Eats. I would definitely go back especially for the banh mi!“

“Came to this place because it’s hype and I always see a long line during peak hours so decided to give it a try! We came around 4:30 on a Sunday and there was no line, so if you want to avoid the line I recommend coming during non peak hours. The ramen itself was good! It wasn’t the best ramen I’ve had but it was still good. I got the thin noodles and I thought it was unique. I also ordered their signature broth and it was also delicious. There are also a variety of vegan/vegetarian options as well, and their veggie gyoza were good! The prices were also fair but with add ons (egg, seaweed, etc) it comes down to ~$20 for a bowl of ramen.“

“Good service and delicious foods“

“really good food. Totally satisfied me.“

“Found this place by chance and the food was absolutely delicious!“

“Found this wonderful restaurant on a trip to Vancouver. The noodles here are the real deal. Hand pulled, fresh and delicious. We ordered too much food and ate every bite! Couldn’t stop. Owner and staff have great pride in the business and we wish we had one close to us. We’ll be back on our next trip.“

“Lovely to get served tea when we sat down, not crowded when we sat down, I felt so comfortable (I'm Chinese), to sit and chat with a colleague. Food was yummy, I enjoyed the 'cutting noodle' 刀烧面and the xiaolongbao. The skin of the xlb broke for 2 of them though. We were not rushed by any staff, nobody asked how our meal was going, which I find so much nicer and respectful when enjoying time in a restaurant. I would recommend this place for a nice, leisurely enjoyable meal.

Vegetarian options: Free street parking by the church, lots of vegetarian options“

“We had a great meal here today! The service is very friendly, the furnishings and ambience are simple, but ok.
We had the number 37 and the number ??? Pho “Chicken with Lemongrass”, first there were Vietnamese spring rolls. Everything was really good and tasty.“

“Food is yummy however inside space a bit narrow. There are only 9 items on the menu which is the downside. Everything is a bit spicy, even the fried rice. But food tastes great! Price on the high point, a regular bowl of pho is $19.5. With above concerns even their food is yummy I won’t revisit though.“

“I went in with no expectations, but wow, this place blew me away! The broth and the Dandan noodles were incredibly flavorful—absolutely delicious. We also tried the beef roll, and it did not disappoint! I’m usually a bit picky with Asian food, but this spot made my taste buds so happy. The noodles tasted so authentic, and as a Korean, it even reminded me a lot of flavors from home. I think other Korean food lovers would really enjoy it too. Definitely a hidden gem worth visiting!“

“This is a really cool and authentic Chinese restaurant selling all the delicious noodles, dim sum, and anything you can dream of. Their LanZhou noodles have the most umami soup filled with beef flavor. And the hand cut noodles with cumin lamb is also sooo flavorful.“

“Does not appear to look anything to do with food from the outside except the name said "kitchen" to suggest food. For a long time; with much curiosity I vemture in......They sell Taiwan style home comfort frozen food and made to order bento box; take-out only.While inside the store you still will not think they are selling food, very clean and tidy with no display on any of their products, a staff come up to help me and explane their concept and show me their frozen food products and bento box on a menu with photo. Finally, this place make sense this is a food joint.I ordered as per the helpful lady recommand ,all are very good and does not appear to have MSG; as I am MSG allergic. My pick are dishes with complicated cooking prep work that I will not consider making myself at home.Here are my picks and review:-Hot and sour soup, good value for quality and quility incomapre to the aboveaverage restaurant.Taiwan style meat sauce, good topping for rice , noodle or of your choice, meat are not minced like some resuturent, cutting with knife to small pieces give better texture plus they also compliment the sauce with a in store made pickle veg that highten the whole enjoyment eperience of the dish.Shrimp pancake, not my frav , is only personal.Pepper, pickle veg and pig stomach soup, this soup is not for everyone, is a ture comfort food for me, love it.Braise pork belly with bamboo shots, big time comfort food, long prep time dish. Cook topoint, All thumbs up.Went back again, did not disappoint. Bento box is also good value..“

“Ate there last Thur 5/30, no wait and foods came out fast even with the rice clay pot (5*). Ordered the free range chicken rice pot, love the crispy rice on the bottom of the pot, so good w the soy sauce on the table, good combination.

The pea vine with garlic was also good but some were a bit tough (off 1*) for that reason. Sorry halfway through before remember to take pics. Will be back to try other things!

Parking: Pro tip: More luck w side street parking“

“Friendly stuff and the food price is decent. Can order through their app, it’s convenient!“
