1. Doña Cata Mexican Foods
Vancouver, BC V5P 3V8
(604) 436-2232
Category:
Mexican
Neighbourhood: Kensington-Cedar Cottage
Most authentic Tacos in Vancouver!
I totally agree with Geoff G's take on Dona Cata. The service is a bit slack but they are super busy, so you can't blame them for little hiccups.
My sisters fiance was born and raised in Mexico and regularly drives…More »
2. Dunbar Pizza & Grill
Vancouver, BC V6S 2C1
(604) 732-4999
Category:
Indian
Neighbourhood: Dunbar-Southlands
Thanks to Darren N, I pretended that this was a hole in the wall Indian place that I have passed by for years. (Its true, I lived a block away for two years and never stopped in!)
Today, I had the Mattar Paneer and Naan, and ya, lets just say that I…More »

Tapas Bars,

Neighbourhood: Kitsilano
I am now an official repeat Flying Tiger offender.
Holy flying kitties this place serves up some serious grub.
We went for Yelp Eats the other night, and damn it was good once again.
They've earned a place on my "guarantees" list.
We diverted from the…More »

An easy five stars!
And ya... if Tigers could fly, we would still be stuffed.
But... like on a mantle.… Read more »
4. Salsa & Agave Mexican Grill
Vancouver, BC V6Z 2R6
(604) 408-4228
Category:
Mexican
Neighbourhoods: Downtown, Yaletown
I gotta give these guys five stars.
The staff are so friendly, and hail from Mexico (kinda scary sometimes when you see a white guy in the kitchen... just sayin...?)
The Paradillas Burrito is my go-to take out order on the way home from work.…More »

5. Kam's Place - CLOSED
Vancouver, BC V6E 1M5
(604) 669-3389
Categories:
Singaporean,
Sushi Bars
Neighbourhood: West End
Kam's is the Place I go when I need a guaranteed good feed.
Nothin fancy, nothin expensive, just damn good fast Singapore-ish cuisine.
I have pretty much had everything on the menu over the last three years. My top eats are: Ginger pork, Mee Siam, Sha…More »
6. Thai House Express
San Francisco, CA 94109
USA
(415) 441-8038
Category:
Thai
Neighbourhood: Civic Center/Tenderloin
Pretty close to a five star Thai place for price and quality. It just took a bit too long for our food to arrive despite there being less than a dozen people in the place. Oh well, worth the wait. The Pad Thai and sticky rice were bad-ass.
7. Maenam
I have been to Thailand a few times, and I can confidently say that Maenam serves up authentically yummerific Thai! I have looked far and wide for a proper Thai place in Vancouver, but there is always something lacking in flavour. (I am not a huge…More »
8. Thai Terrace Restaurant
Four stars for their Red Curry Chicken. Sooooooo good.
I have tried a lot of their dishes over the past couple of years, but I would say the red curry is the best on the menu. Hence, minus a star.
Actually, the pad thai is pretty decent too.
9. Vij's Rangoli
Vancouver, BC V6H 1L1
(604) 736-5711
Category:
Indian
Neighbourhoods: Fairview Slopes, South Granville
I am usually an ambitious order-er when returning to a restaurant for the second, third, sixth time. But I can't help ordering the same darn thing every time at Rangoli. The Portobello Mushroom with Naan, Chai tea and rice pudding for dessert.

Neighbourhood: Kensington-Cedar Cottage
BLAND
I have to admit I was pretty underwhelmed with my walnut tacos for brunch.
They were void of any flavour. Which is weird because of the ingredients. I dunno. I wasn't impressed with the crappy service either. I know there are places that are…More »
11. Las Margaritas Mexican Restaurant
Reminds me of All-Inclusive resort meals in Mexico!
As my fellow Yelpers have already pointed out, the food isn't bad, it's just that it seems to be missing something. A lil pizazz perhaps?
I should know better when asked if I want Guacamole. Of…More »
12. The Noodle Box
"Honey, what do you want for dinner tonight?"
Has got to be one of the most annoyingly predictable questions I hear.
My answer today is...
Spicy Peanut Chicken. [Mild Medium]
I know Yelp is all about trying new foods and all that happy stuff... But I…More »
