1. Killer Seafood & Pizza
Vancouver, BC V6G
(604) 568-7179
Categories:
Seafood,
Mediterranean
Neighbourhood: West End
Ohmygosh I cannot say enough nice things about this place. The place is small and the furniture is a bit classy for a pizza joint, but the food is Ah-maze-ing. Yes, with a capital A.
Husband and I walked in around 7:30pm on a weeknight, and stayed…More »
2. Samurai Japanese Restaurant
How have I not written a review for this place? I eat here all the time, and I take all my out of towners here to experience the joy that is sushi on the west coast. Sure there are plenty of places that are of better quality, but for the price you…More »
3. Guu Garden
After all that we've been through
It comes down to me and you
I guess it's meant to be
Forever you and me, after aaaaaaall.
I know you've all heard this song before. Don't judge me, this is a classic. Peter Cetera would totally understand that this song…More »

This is my favourite of all the Guu restaurants. It's the least noisy of them all, it's brightly lit… Read more »
4. Miura Waffle Milk Bar
Vancouver, BC V6Z 1B7
(604) 687-2909
Categories:
Sandwiches,
Coffee & Tea
Neighbourhood: Downtown
Things you didn't think would go together but do: celery and peanut butter. almonds and zucchinis. hoisin pork and waffles. Seriously.
I've been eying this place for a while now, and finally decided to stop by and pick up a waffle to go to satisfy my…More »
5. Kadoya Japanese Restaurant
Vancouver, BC V6E 1M5
(604) 608-1115
Categories:
Japanese,
Sushi Bars
Neighbourhood: West End
When I'm feeling up for some fancier sushi at a great price, I can easily count on Kadoya for consistently good good. It's apparently so good that my friend from the t-dot, who's only been here a week, has eaten at this establishment three times…More »
6. Cookies of Course
Ever since a guy brought these cookies to a party and all the girls crowded around him like white on rice, I've been hooked. No longer will I go to the grocery store and pick up a box of oreos, no longer will I be satisfied with pillsbury, not when I…More »
7. Bay Sushi Express Cafe
Vancouver, BC V6B 1Z5
(604) 806-0361
Categories:
Japanese,
Sushi Bars
Neighbourhood: Downtown
Stopped by here tonight since I was craving sushi. The place is small, diner-styles, but the menu is pretty straightforward since all it is is pictures on the wall with prices. Was really impressed with the value of meals here, a bento box for under…More »
8. La Bretagne the Original Creperie
This morning I decided that I needed a fancy brunch, and so I made the trek to La Bretagne for some crepes. We got there around 11 and were seated immediately, but it took so long for someone to come by and ask for drinks. Service was so slow, and it…More »
9. Viet Sub
Vancouver, BC V6B
(604) 569-3340
Categories:
Vietnamese,
Sandwiches
Neighbourhood: Downtown
This is the best place to go for lunch if you're looking for something cheap and different. For $4.00, you can get full on an amazing Banh Mi that makes my mouth water just thinking about it. There are lots of options as well, and there's also pho…More »
10. Shizen Ya
I've gotten take out from here quite a few times now, and the fish is always fresh. A lot of their smaller rolls are very reasonably priced (alaska roll or tuna & avocado roll for $2.95). I love their sakura blossom roll (fresh crab meat, wild…More »
11. Ebisu On Robson
Vancouver, BC V6E 3Y4
(604) 689-8266
For izakaya that won't break the bank, Ebisu is a decent choice in a pinch. I like that it's right on Robson for that extra variety, and I like that it's got a lot more room than your nearby Guu restaurants, but this place is crazy noisy and dark,…More »
12. Zero One Sushi
Vancouver, BC V6B 1V5
(604) 605-1625
Categories:
Sushi Bars,
Japanese
Neighbourhood: Downtown
I was determined to try this place after seeing all the good reviews for it, but it was just never on my way to anything. So finally during the Christmas shopping rush (read: a week before the holidays), I sucked it up and trekked out to this place…More »
13. La Brasserie Street
Vancouver, BC V7Y 1H4
(778) 989-4883
Categories:
Food Stands,
Sandwiches
Neighbourhood: Downtown
If you're looking for a quick meal while walking down the street, this is your kind food truck. There's next to no line because there's only one thing on the menu (two if you include the butter tart) and they bust em out fast.
$6.25 gets you a brass…More »

Dim Sum! (20)I love dim sum. I will gladly wake up early on a weekend to go try a new dim sum place out. If you're lacking a vehicle like I am, then perhaps some of these places may interest you when you get a dumpling itch? If I can get there san-car, so can you! |
Visitors List! (8)When I have out of towners, I love telling them about how great our city is. Here's the usual list of places I send them to. :) |
Izakayas! (6)There are so many in the city, I've still got to try them all. |
Sushi! (23)You can't come to this city without going to a sushi joint. And there are many. This might take a while. |
Japanese Noodle and Rice Shops! (4)Delicious (and sometimes brothy) goodness in a bowl. The best kind of meal. |
Diners, Drive-In and Dives (2)Chasing after the show, one restaurant at a time. |
ROTD! (3)I'm so proud! Please don't think any less of me... |
