1. Saffron Indian Cuisine
Burnaby, BC V5H 1Z8
(604) 436-5000
Being super close to me, I often find myself coming here, and have probably been here 20ish times over the years living in Burnaby.
They have a lunch buffet every day of the week that runs until about 2:00, but I have been there right close to 2 and…More »
2. Abdul BBQ & Shawarma
Burnaby, BC V5H 2A9
(604) 431-9498
Category:
Mediterranean
Neighbourhood: Metrotown
Excellent shawerma that's very well spiced (I've tried the chicken lamb and beef and all were great).
The platters (see picture) give you a ton of food that can almost feed 2 people as a meal.
They have this spread they put on the pita that I THINK is…More »
3. Curry Express
Yogurt veggie pakora curry that has to be some of the best I've had anywhere.
Love the combo deals, where 2 items and naan for ~$7 actually fills me up (and they don't just give you 3 cups of rice). I hate going to the mall and paying crazy prizes…More »
4. Tasty Village Restaurant
Here I thought I'd snag the FTR... next time I'll have to write faster!!
Four stars for:
- Fast take-out (15 min wait during lunch)
- Yummy Hot and sour soup, the kind that makes you sweat from just taking a spoonful
Even though it's near Moscrop…More »
5. Nando's Chicken
Burnaby, BC V5H 2A5
(604) 434-6220
Categories:
Barbeque,
Portuguese
Neighbourhood: Metrotown
Got the $25 bundle to go... for an enormous bag of various chicken parts. Ready in about 10 minutes.
This is my first Nando's experience, the only things I'd improve on is another option for sauces.. and slightly larger wings (they looked a little…More »
6. Paul's Sub Shop
Burnaby, BC V5J 1B8
(604) 439-3111
Categories:
Sandwiches,
Coffee & Tea
Neighbourhood: Metrotown
Half a sandwich is probably enough to fill most people for lunch.
Chicken sandwich was ok, the chicken wasn't really seasoned so the pieces tasted a bit plain.
I would like to try the other sandwiches another time though.
7. Hibiki Sushi
Fast take-out, not a huge selection though.
I'd try it again if I had more time to sit and eat but I wasn't staying for long.
Even though it's next to the high school there were some high schoolers inside eating, but they weren't being annoying.
8. Joey Burnaby
Was here for a friend's last-day-of-work going away dinner that happened to land on the same night as a Canucks away game. The restaurant was full capacity but nothing that might be unexpected for a popular restaurant.
There were a few service issues…More »
9. Delicious Bbq Ltd
Tried the BBQ chicken and BBQ pork over rice for $6 I think?
The meat was tasty but didn't quite feel balanced enough as a 'meal' - there's no sides or vegetables included here (the small single stem of brocolli and green onions don't count).
10. Pho Century Cafe & Restaurant
To be fair - I rate the food here a 4. But overall I have to give to dock it a star because the decor isn't the nicest and outside I got a great view of the interesting happenings of the outside of the BC Liquor Store:
Dishevelled men hunting for…More »
11. Bambi Cafe - CLOSED
This is a newly renovated Coffe Shop that is now a coffee/tea house/restaurant. This place has somewhat of an identiy crisis, I'm not sure what to think of it.
The food is selections were all over, but the dinner appetizers were mostly deep fried…More »
12. Kura Japanese Restaurant
Kura was having a bad day today.
Friday lunch we were behind a few large tables so we expected a bit of a wait. 45 minutes later asking where our miso soups were and told that it was busy and it was going to be late and wait. 15-20 after that we…More »
13. Big Orange Juice Bar
Burnaby, BC V5H 4M1
(604) 438-5779
Category:
Juice Bars & Smoothies
Neighbourhood: Metrotown
The man taking orders seemed to have difficulty understanding what was asked and reconfirmed things 2-3 x.
Tried bubble tea for the first time. I don`t like the bubble tea pearls. Personal taste. The tea was too sweet, I didn`t finish more than 20%…More »
14. China Glazed Restaurant
For a while, this store didn't even have a sign overhead and had a street sign that said "Chinese Food". Interesting.
The food here is all premade. If you come late after it's all made the selection is limited to what's leftover from what everyone…More »
