50 Best Vegetarian Restaurants in Vancouver

“The food and drink was absolutely delicious when I went with my friend and partner. We ordered mango sticky rice, cauliflower wings and lychee/peach iced tea. On a hot summer day, it hit the spot so good. We also ordered some noodle dishes whuch were delicuous to devour on the go, though they were soupier than we thought. Our waitress was very kind, welcoming and accomodating, though also loud and people pleasing, which can come across as a bit much for some. Our group was fine with it though. We went in for a quick bite and got exactly what we needed. The atmosphere was beautiful and homey, separating us in a calmer bubble from the busy Vancouver streets.“

“Delightful dining experience!“

“Went for the Lunar New Year dinner. The food was amazing. The staff was even better. The New Moon cocktail was incredible.“

“We were served by a friendly and professional waiter (Chris) after being greeted by lovely hosting staff. He was so fun when he came to the table, and knew about everything that was put on our table. Really made the experience special for all of us. The food was amazing. We were all celebrating a birthday and a reunion and got a bday dessert for the table. Accommodated amazingly to gluten free and vegan dietary restrictions. It was Canada day and we were also given complimentary welcome drinks, I loved them! Also had amazing mocktails and made a mocktail welcome drink!“

“Kissa Tanto is everything the hype suggests it is.

My wife and I decided to focus on the seafood offerings for the evening, and that decision was rewarded from the very first course.

Every dish demonstrated exceptional restraint, balance and confidence. The seafood remained the hero throughout, while each accompanying ingredient added thoughtful layers of flavour, texture and contrast without ever competing for attention.

The oysters were beautifully presented with elegant, well-balanced mignonettes that complemented rather than overwhelmed their natural brine. The octopus salad was outstanding—layer upon layer of vegetables, textures and flavours, each contributing something distinct while coming together as a remarkably cohesive dish. The charcoal udon carried that same sense of balance and depth, and the fish of the moment (halibut) was cooked perfectly, allowing the quality of the fish to speak for itself.

Exceptional food, a warm and inviting atmosphere, and polished, attentive service made for a memorable evening. More than anything, we appreciated the respect shown not only to the seafood, but to every ingredient on the plate. Each component had a purpose, contributing to the whole without ever overshadowing the star of the dish. It’s precisely that level of confidence and restraint that encourages us to return and explore the rest of the menu.“

“Very cozy restaurant, I highly recommend the Bigoli Nero - the best tasting seafood pasta I've ever had. The staff provided friendly and excellent service too.“

“Oh my… this was quite an experience! When going there, letyourself be surprised by the Chef’s Menu (Menu dégustation in french). Surprise after surprise, it will make you live a real culinary experience! And our waiter (fluently bilingual) was excellent and vey passionate! Along with the lady who brought each plate and explained to us what they were. And finally the manager, I believe, who came over a few times to talk about the plates, the wine and how the pasta were made the same day, very early in the morning The wine suggestion was also perfect! Finally, the décor is not at all what you would expect, from looking at the menu on the web-site; very fresh, young, modern, yet very warm decor! Please go and try this place. I will definitely be back when travelling to Vancouver. Merciiii!“

“My wife tried Mr. Shawarma on Robson last night and after she offered me a bite I had to go back and order one for myself - so good! As well, the personal touch and friendly vibe of the chef and team made my whole trip downtown feel worth it. I will build a trip to Mr. Shawarma into my downtown trips from now on!“

“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.“

“We had dinner at Blue Water Cafe last night, and our server, Jared, was absolutely outstanding. He was incredibly attentive throughout the entire evening and possessed a deep knowledge of the menu, explaining the dishes with great detail. His drink recommendations were also spot on and enhanced our meal perfectly. What impressed us the most was his impeccable pacing; he managed to attend to every single table with absolute precision, without ever making anyone feel rushed. Jared balances warmth and professionalism beautifully, and he was truly a key figure in making our evening a memorable success. A huge thank you to Jared and the entire team for an unforgettable night. Jared went above and beyond any service experience I’ve had in the city. Highly recommended!“

“We had such a wonderful experience on March 17, 2026 at Miku Japanese Restaurant at River Rock Hotel. From the moment we arrived, the service was truly top-notch—the staff went above and beyond to accommodate our needs and made us feel genuinely cared for. What really stood out was their thoughtfulness and attentiveness. As soon as they noticed that one of our friends was wearing a veil and the rest of us had our Team Bride sashes on, they kindly arranged a private dining room for us. It made the celebration feel even more special and intimate. The ambience was also fantastic—cool, relaxing, and enhanced by a great selection of music. The warm, Japanese-style décor added a beautiful and authentic touch to the overall dining experience. We also appreciated the complimentary non-alcoholic drinks, especially since we had decided not to drink before going swimming. It was such a considerate gesture that didn’t go unnoticed. And of course, the food was amazing—every dish was beautifully presented and absolutely delicious. Overall, it was an unforgettable experience with exceptional service, thoughtful touches, and incredible food. Highly recommended for special occasions!“

“We came for a good bye dinner with our team. Our company closed and Glowbal was selected by numerous recommendations from our other colleagues. It was an amazing atmosphere and definitely super-tasty food. When the time for dessert came, our beautiful waitresses came with our ordered sweet cake with “Happy Unemployment “ writing on the plate. It was a bittersweet moment for all of us but our mood instantly switched to laughter and we almost forgot the cause of our gathering“

“The hostesses at the front are vibrant and charming. They offer a complimentary glass of champagne to sip while you’re waiting. If you don’t imbibe, they will accommodate your soft drink request. We were seated at a table on the patio which is very close to the street. So if you choose to sit on the patio, There will be city sounds which, apart from the occasional siren, quickly dissolves into the artful landscaping. Raven, our server, was friendly and cheerful, in addition to being appropriately attentive. We started with the mini steak French dips. Expertly seasoned and grilled, new york steak strips over a button of gruyere cheese atop a tiny slice of sourdough garlic bread with a side of au jus. These were quite more-ish. I recommend them. My husband enjoyed the Mediterranean salad and I liked my seared ahi tuna salad very much. The tuna is sliced thicker than carpaccio but thinner than sushi and gently seared. The plating was elegant and the salad finely chopped with bits of mango and shaved avocado on the top.. I tasted a bit of mint leaf and the light dressing was truly perfect. The staff pay attention to the guests and, when your server is busy, they make themselves available for your needs. It appears the staff members enjoy each other’s company as well as their jobs. I observed real teamwork throughout. We had the apple pie for dessert. On its own it is delicious with a caramel apple filling and it’s flaky , buttery and crunchy crus. It can easily be shared by three people and would have been enough. But do’gild the lily’ by adding the Canadian maple ice cream. We felt comfortable and satisfied. We were pleased with every bite and the Joey Burrard experience from start to finish. We will definitely go back and try some other offerings. Go and have fun. And talk to the very friendly staff who are so willing to engage.“

“We were over visiting our son and had a wonderful meal with great service and very reasonably priced“

“食物好吃 服務也好 環境亦好“

“Delicious food. I’ve ordered from there 3 times and I always get the curry laska. I think about that soup/pho all the time! The garlic bok Choi is delicious. The vinegar garlic sauce as an add on, adds depth and even more flavour.“

“Love love this place, it deserves all the praises. Amazing quality fish, you can taste the freshness. Service is attentive and personal. Dishes are not only beautiful but have layers of favour, just flawless execution, the chef here is on the top of their game.“

“Friendly & Cozy atmosphere, great comfort food!“

“This is my second time at MeeT on Main and I am writing it yet another review as it truly deserves! This place is a MUST go. Last year I found myself unsure of where to take my girlfriend for our first real dinner date due to her dietary restrictions and tentatively made our way for this Vegan restaurant that both I and her had raised a brow about (For more on that review seek out Raven Bramblepaw on Google reviews to see!) But we are more than pleased to say we have returned and couldn't be happier to have done so, this time bringing with us my girlfriends parents. The food was just as good as we remembered, possibly even better as it is not an over exaggeration that if you did not know what was infront of you was vegan, you likely wouldn't guess. This restaurant will continue to be a staple for my relationship with my girlfriend Fox, and we will continue to come back every year if we should be so lucky. Thank you Astrid and Co. for the warm return welcome, and we look forward to coming back for another tasty bite!“

“Most amazing flavours! Everything was so delicious, still dreaming about it the day after. Thank you for an awesome flavour journey!“

“Ramneet and Harsh were so friendly, welcoming and kind. I was greeted immediately, and with a smile, she was bubbly throughout the entire experience. I saw her interactions with other customers while I was eating my slice, & her (Ramneet) s consistency is telling of how much business I saw during my visit. If there were more stars, I would give them. Hopefully her superiors see this, & she gets a raise!:)“

“one of the best burgers I've ever had. the bannock was excellent too“

“Really good waffles and really good lattes“

“Amazing food here! Absolutely mouth watering! I will be back a million times over. Great service, keep up the good work kitchen team! ✨👏🏼🔥😍“

“love this place and it's been my default go-to for a decade. try the extra goodies available on weekends. 😋“

“Good pizza 🍕 great experience 😊“

“Picked up staff lunch today...generous portions! Delicious and fresh! Highly recommend this Granville Street eatery!“

“I had one of their burritos, absolutely delicious. I'm not vegan or vegetarian but it's definitely got something for everyone. Staff are great too. I enjoyed my lunch here, I'll bring a friend next time. They have pretty small glasses of beer on offer too which is a great idea if you want a beer but don't want much. I wish more places had this.“

“Amazing service from Olivia. This lady is one of the best if not the best servers I have ever had at any restaurant bar-none!!“

“I had an incredible meal here recently. The quality of the food was outstanding. Every dish we ordered was packed with flavor and cooked perfectly.

I particularly loved how fresh the vegetables looked in all of our plates. The combination of broccoli and vibrant red peppers in the noodle dishes was a highlight. You can really tell they care about the ingredients they use. I will definitely be back again soon.“

“Such great food! The servers are second to none and the live entertainment on Saturday was amazing! 10/10 would do it again!“

“We celebrated our 10th anniversary on January 25 at Coast Restaurant during the Dine Out Festival 2026, and it was truly an unforgettable experience. As expected from the Glowbal Restaurant Group, the service was absolutely top-notch. Our waitress made the evening even more special—she happened to be a fellow Swiftie! We ended up having such a lovely chat about how we millennials grew up listening to Taylor Swift, which added a fun and personal touch to our celebration. She truly went above and beyond to make our anniversary memorable. Not only did we receive a complimentary cake as a thoughtful gesture, but she also surprised me with a Swiftie friendship bracelet—such a sweet and unique detail that we’ll always remember. The food was amazing from start to finish. My husband had the New England Chowder for his appetizer, while I enjoyed the shrimp salad. For our mains, we both chose the surf n’ turf—our favorite—and it did not disappoint. We ended the night with a delicious sticky toffee pudding, along with the complimentary cake. Everything—from the incredible food to the warm, attentive service—made our night so special. Thank you, Coast, for such a memorable anniversary celebration! 💕“

“Shayla, our server, was absolutely amazing! She explained the menu thoroughly and made excellent recommendations that we were glad to try. The entire experience was exceptional, and the food was perfect from start to finish.We had the red wine braised short rib of beef from Double R Ranch — it melted in my mouth and the flavor was out of this world. We started with the scallops and smoked bison tartare, both of which were outstanding.For other mains, we enjoyed the wood grilled lamb, the Hank tenderloin steak, the Wagyu beef picanha from Brant Lake Farm in Alberta, Blue Dot Beef in Prince Edward Island striploin (10 oz). They were all amazing. The Blue Dot had incredible flavor — juicy, tender, and hands down the best steak I’ve ever had. Every steak was beautifully cooked and packed with flavor.We finished the evening with trying ALL THE DESSERTS! The baked Alaska was beautiful and delicious! The ice cream trio was so creamy and rich. The creme brûlée was smooth and dreamy. The chocolate cake was moist and perfectly matched with the passionfruit sauce. The fam favorite was definitely the cheesecake… we were all wanting it! Perfect flavor not too sweet and very smooth. Blackberries were a perfect match. We also had the donuts.. don’t forget about those. Im still dreaming of them. Highly recommend — a truly unforgettable meal!“

“Delicioso sabor, buenos condimentos, cocina al momento, 💯% recomendado!!!“

“Really great place, wonderful food and variety of options! Khushi was super lovely! Super recommended! 💖🍔“

“We were looking for an authentic Lebanese restaurant in BC. Don’t pass Mazahr’s for lunch or dinner. Food was excellent!!!!!!“

“the food was amazing 👏 we will definitely be bak!“

“We had a stellar experience at this venue yesterday. The service was up to par and the menu was amazing. I can't say I have any complaints at all!“

“Delicious veggie sushi!!!!“

“Great food for celiac! However not the best service. Called ahead to pick up my order. Guy at the front said it was not ready yet. Turns out my food was sitting there ready at the counter since I walked in the door 20 mins prior 🫠
Be sure to check yourself if your order is ready or not !“

“From the first spoonful, you can tell they put a lot of care into every bowl. The broth is incredibly rich and flavorful without being too heavy, and the noodles have that perfect chewy texture that makes every bite satisfying.

The chashu was melt-in-your-mouth tender, and all of the toppings felt thoughtfully balanced rather than just thrown in. Everything tasted fresh, and the quality really stood out.

What I also appreciate is the atmosphere. It's cozy, clean, and welcoming, with friendly staff who make you feel looked after without being overbearing. Even when it's busy, the service is efficient, and the food comes out quickly.

It's the kind of place I find myself whenever I'm craving a comforting bowl of ramen. There are plenty of good ramen shops in Vancouver, but Maruhachi has earned a permanent spot on my list due to their consistency.“

“Great food and excellent service! The Chicken Yaki Udon was delicious, with fresh ingredients and a flavorful sauce. The sushi and other dishes were also incredibly tasty and well-prepared. The food arrived hot and still steaming, which made the experience even better. The staff were friendly and attentive, and the atmosphere was welcoming. I would definitely come back and highly recommend this restaurant to others!“

“Delicious noodles! Prompt service. Tom yum was the perfect level of sour and spicy. Got out with the thick noodles which had a really nice chew. I don’t usually love shrimp, but these were fresh as they had a nice bounce.

Only down part is that it’s really warm - perhaps not enough AC / fan. Air circulation not great, but otherwise the space is cozy and cute.“

“Highly recommend! Food, services and the environment are PERFECT!!! Definitely will recommend to everyone around me!“

“I have eaten at other Michelin restaurants before and this is my top. By far the best service, best food, everything is exemplary.“

“We recently celebrated my husbands 40th birthday with an amazing dinner at Nightingale! There were 12 of us and had a family style dinner, which every plate that came out was amazing. I wish I lived in Vancouver because I would frequent Nightingale weekly. Service was prompt and they were consistently keeping the drinks flowing.“

“Had a great experience at Happy Lamb Hot Pot in Vancouver. The soup base was rich and flavorful, and the meat and vegetables were fresh. The lamb was especially good, with great texture and no strong gamey taste. The restaurant was clean, the service was friendly, and the overall atmosphere was comfortable for eating with friends or family. Portions were generous and the price felt reasonable for the quality. Definitely a solid hot pot spot in Vancouver — I’d come back again.“

“Delicious pizza! Has Veggie options too. We buy every Tuesday lunch it’s cost only 1.95 :)“

“Such great food! The servers are second to none and the live entertainment on Saturday was amazing! 10/10 would do it again!“

“Had Fantastic service our waiter Darshil was very nice and polite always came by asking how the food was and if he could help with anything else. We got our food and drinks really fast. We definitely will be going back all of the food was amazing!.“
