1. Soup Plus
This place is amazing - and not just because there's not much else to compare it to in the neighbourhood (I grew up in Coquitlam, I know...), this is the kind of sandwich shop that could hold its own anywhere.
The place has a real homey feel - owners…More »
2. Meat & Bread
I had a really hard time deciding whether to round my 4.5 stars up or down; just as I had such a hard time deciding between the classic porchetta sandwich and the daily special of Chinese BBQ duck that I ended up ordering both. Sadly Yelp won't let…More »

Neighbourhoods: Sunset, Kensington-Cedar Cottage
How weird is this place??! I'll never forget the first time I came here a few years ago, my husband (at that time he was a new boyfriend) brought me here to proudly show off his favourite sandwich - the chicken pollo. I didn't want to eat here, my…More »

Vancouver, BC V5L 1S7
(604) 681-0660
Category:
Meat Shops
Neighbourhood: Grandview-Woodlands
I walk by this place every day, and I must admit it took me far too long to figure out what the hell it was. All I needed was someone to grab me by the shoulders, give me a quick shake and say, "MEGAN, THIS IS WHERE YOU CAN GO TO BUY AWESOME…More »

Neighbourhood: Downtown
Looks like Mr. Fine-Dining-Mackay knows how to do pub food!
Came here with some co-workers and we ordered calamari and some drinks to start. The calamari was delicious - sliced thin and super lightly fried so it was still extremely tender. It sat…More »
6. Le Do Vietnamese Restaurant
Vancouver, BC V5L 1V4
(604) 253-3508
Category:
Vietnamese
Neighbourhood: Grandview-Woodlands
This is my Sunday morning hangover cure. The pho broth is delicate but well balanced, the papaya salad with prawns is refreshing, the bahn mi have lovely fillings tucked inside super fresh bread and the spring rolls are insanely addictive. After…More »
7. Joyeaux Cafe & Restaurant
Vancouver, BC V6C 2C2

Categories:
Vietnamese,

Neighbourhood: Downtown
My brain short-circuits every time I walk in here. I fully intend to order some awesome homemade-style Vietnamese dish, and sometimes I'll go as far as to choose one from the giant wall menu...however, as soon as I walk up to the cashier and open my…More »
8. Miura Waffle Milk Bar
Vancouver, BC V6Z 1B7
(604) 687-2909
Categories:
Sandwiches,
Coffee & Tea
Neighbourhood: Downtown
This place is alright; I tried the hoisin and enjoyed how the pork sausage was sprinkled throughout the actual waffle. The sandwich fillings were nice (I have a thing for pickled veg), but as Marc D. points out, the waffle itself gets really soggy.…More »
9. One Saigon

Categories:
Sandwiches,

Neighbourhood: Downtown
This place never wows me, but it also doesn't disappoint - especially the bahn mi, they're actually quite good. Crusty bread, generous fresh fillings, nice flavour balance...you can't go wrong.
The vermicelli dishes are a bit hit or miss - I love the…More »

Categories:
Food Stands,

Neighbourhood: Downtown
I came for the hot smoked "salmwich", but quickly changed my mind when I saw the oyster po-boy. I'm a sucker for oysters - raw, breaded and fried, baked with garlic butter...it's all good to me. I scoped out the sides they offered - fries, poutine or…More »
11. The Red Wagon
Vancouver, BC V5L
(604) 568-4565
Category:
Diners
Neighbourhood: Grandview-Woodlands
A pleasant return visit yesterday warrants a slight upgrade to 3.5 stars, though I'm keeping it rounded down to 3.
Taking the day off on Monday to finish moving, my husband and I decided to try this place out for breakfast seeing as we wouldn't have…More »

I find long line-ups more of a deterrent than an attraction when it comes to restaurants. Yes, long… Read more »

Categories:
Vegetarian,
Soup,

Neighbourhood: West End
When I first started working nearby about 5 years ago, I was brought here by a co-worker and told to order the taco salad. I did, and it was awful - bland and soggy, the kind of lunch that you want to stop eating, but you're hungry and don't want to…More »

OK, here it goes...I'm a long time Yelp follower, first time post-er. Although I've been meaning to join for a while, I needed something to kickstart my Yelping career...and here we go:
I wanted to like this place, truly. I work a block away and I'm…More »

I will never pay $7 for a bahn mi again.
I showed up during the lunch rush and the place was booming - with white people, but booming nonetheless. I studied the menu as I waited in line to order and decided to stick with the classic. Like others have…More »

Categories:

Neighbourhoods: Grandview-Woodlands, The Drive
For a restaurant that I can barely stand, I don't know why I seem to be here so often. I blame the red sangria. And also my husband. And also his friend who was in town visiting and the fact that the two of them somehow love this place. But anyway,…More »

Neighbourhoods: Downtown, Granville Entertainment District
Came here for lunch with a group - wasn't terrible but wasn't very good either. I'm personally not a big fan of communal tables at restaurants; they seem to make sense in bars where people are drunk and schmoozing and looking to meet new friends, but…More »
