789 Carnarvon St, New Westminster, BC V3M 1E6, Canada
We are a Vietnamese restaurant with a variety of dishes including specialized vegan and vegetarian plates.
Highly recommend especially if you’re vegan, but even if you’re not, I swear the food taste exactly like meat and chicken.... the massive bonus is very delicious. I was recommended by a vegan friend. It was a bit far for me, but it’s definitely worth the drive. Uyen was so kind and helpful...5 star vip service!!!! Do yourself a favour and check it out... I promise you won’t regret i!!!
Incredible find ! we’re in Vancouver BC and wanted some pho, and found the Tina Vietnamese here on google, and were sold right away - not often you can find a fully vegan vietnamese restaurant and being vegetarians both hubby and i appreciated the comfort of knowing what’s in your food 🙏🏼 From the atmosphere and friendliest service, to the most delicious flavorful vegan pho ever - everything was top notch and i’m already looking forward to coming back to Vancouver just for this! If you love pho, even if you’re not vegetarian, do give it a try - highly recommended! Spicy vegan beef pho was especially good, as were deepfried spring rolls and the other vegan seafood pho 😋
Very reasonable prices and great options, the vegetarian/vegan aspect is a highlight and you don’t miss the non-veg food at all:)
Amazing vegan food! The portions are quite considerable. Service was friendly but very slow. It took near 15 mins to get my bill and pay? They definitely need extra staff to get people out at a reasonable time.
Great restaurant. The food is awesome and the staff is lovely. It is also a cozy place that faces the river so it is a perfect place to take your date.
This is a vegan Vietnamese cuisine restaurant. The foods we tried were all good, they tasted just right. Servers were fine, but could be a bit more attentive.
I found this delightful Vegan Vietnamese restaurant in New Westminster. Great friendly staff, clean restaurant, and delicious food. Hard to tell it's almost all vegan. A great place to take vegan/vegetarian friends. Recommended
Very cozy environment and friendly staff- very positive experience. The food was quite tasty- both had vegan pho. I liked the mock beef slices and extras like the vegan balls. A decent amount of veggies and lots of rice noodles and yummy broth in my spicy vegan bowl. Can't wait to try the salad rolls. Very appreciative of the variety of vegan option🙏
Im not even vegan and this is my favorite Vietnamese food in the city. Everything is really tasty and a surprisingly good value! Very friendly service and relaxed atmosphere Vegetarian options: Its all vegan!
Great little vegan Vietnamese spot, really enjoyed their meatless alternatives in pho.
Editing review because food quality improved recently. Flavorful and generous portions from the family run place
Accommodating staffs and many healthy options
Best vegan vietnamese place around The bahn mi are on point Vegetarian options: Most options are vegan
A great hospitality, easily able to connect with South Asian Culture. must visit
the food here is really good definitely will come back again
The salad rolls were sooooo good! Very filling!
The food was amazing. The service was warm and attentive, and the ambiance made it a cozy spot for a relaxing meal. Highly recommend for anyone looking to enjoy authentic Vietnamese cuisine
Excellent vegan food!!! One of the best restaurants in the lower area!!! Great service, many different options, and reasonable prices. Vegetarian options: Many vegan options, pretty much all of it!
Vegetarian options: Many vegan options Food
Tasty bowl of soup!
This place has the best vegan food ever! Love it!
After watching google reviews I visited Tina Vietnamese Cuisine for the first time and tried their Tofu California Salad Rolls. To my surprise they were the best and their peanut dipping sauce is cherry on the cake as it adds flavours to the cuisine. Can t wait to try their other delicacies. Vegetarian options: You can get vegan options available here.
The mock meat was ok some were tastier than others but there was practically no noodles in the pho and fried noodle chow Mein king oyster dish + too many carrot to noodle ratio. I think the bbq mock meat tasted the best and I d give it a 8/10 for its taste. Maybe they ll add a mock meat marinated with maple syrup and or low calorie syrup in the future. Some like the pho and chow mein here while doesn t hate it due to the cilantro, lack of mock meat, lack of noodles and or dislike the sauce used for the chow mein. The peanut sauce with the lemon grass mock chicken was very very tasty slightly spicy but the server didn t ask which sauce would you like and gave peanut sauce by default Affordable which is really nice for non wealthy ppl who want some tasty food that s good for the environment
Well deserved, 5 of 5 stars for this fabulous hole-in-the-wall Vietnamese spot. Everytime Im staying close-by in Vancouver, I make a point to have a meal here. The portions are very generous and reasonable for the prices. The server was so polite and when she noticed that we ( my girlfriend and I) had been sharing an appetizer, she proceeded to bring extra p about sauce for our salad rolls so that we could both have dipping sauce. 99% vegan food menu (non-veg options labelled) and you can throw a dart on theenu and not miss. There are so many delicious and interesting options to choose from. Sweet to savory, spicy and lots of authentic Vietnamese flavours. Ordered: Lemongrass Bahn mi, pho, BBQ salad rolls, spring rolls
If you have allergies, do not eat here. This restaurant has no problem subjecting their guests to allergens despite our clear communication about my gluten allergy. When I notified the server of my allergy, they expressed frustration and didn t take the time to properly inform me on what was safe to eat. The menu does not say what has or doesn t have gluten, so we asked for options. The server mentioned that the meats are not gluten free but I could have all the other options. So we ordered some dishes with the meats on the side, and turned out that both our dishes had gluten, the vegan chicken was in the dish (not on the side) and the other one had noodles which it didn t say in the menu. Zero attention to our needs and the server was not even interested in accommodating us. Terrible for people with allergies or special diets. I had an allergic reaction and now will be dealing with illness, hives and swelling. The server even had the audacity to say that there was nothing they could do because the management was already mad at her.
Great place, tasty food. Super nice service. Will come back again
horrible experience. the server didnt care about our allergy needs. they were dismissive and guaranteed that certain things were safe. my partner ended up having an allergic reaction at the restaurant even though the server said that the dish was gluten free. this is majorly concerning in regards to food contaminants and care for customer safety.
Very flavourful Vietnamese food with tons of veggie and vegan options. Super kind service and a secret spicy sauce to request!
Theyve got the best salad rolls and vegan baguettes Ive ever had!! Whenever Im in the area, this place is a must
Most of their salad rolls are gluten free. I had the vegan chicken one, and it was yummy!
Great foods, great service All staff are very friendly. I will come back for sure. Food : 5/5
Might be because of the marination and flavouring, but the fake chicken in that vegan lemongrass chicken banh mi sandwich was very good, and thats coming from a chronic chicken enjoyer. Vegetarian options: Many vegan options
Don t miss the secret new items menu on the cash register!
We first came here for dinner for our first summer trip to Canada; The restaurant was close to the hotel so we easily walked to it and walked around after the meal; We arrived late when the restaurant was almost closing. The waitress was very busy but cheerful. The waiter was also very friendly and chatted with us. The taste of the dish is very delicious.
did not expect vegan pho to go this hard but the spicy a5 was sooo good. it was a perfect mild spice.
Food delicious and the service is on point. Favourite vegan restaurant
Delicious food with reasonable price. I have the best Banh Mi sandwich ever, their baguette was so fresh. Highly recommend
Super delicious vegan and gluten-friendly Vietnamese food! I tried the lemongrass chicken salad rolls and the spicy vegan pho - both were amazing. I also enjoyed the iced latte with almond milk. Staff are friendly and welcoming and service was excellent.
Very surprise restaurant, I didn t know that was a vegan restaurant before I walked in, their rolls were so good, and I recommend to try their chilli oil if you ordered a noodle.
Really good vegan pho! Will be coming back
The bahn mi is unbelievable - better than most of the bahn mi I ve had in Vietnam
Very random and fantastic find. Its a great cozy place for a hot bowl of pho during winter times. Really loved the rolls with the peanut sauce! The service was lovely and the price was reasonable as well. Vegetarian options: Lots of vegan options, which are also suitable for vegetarians.
I went there because the reviews were good, but for me it was the worst pho restaurant. Its a good idea. The banh mi sandwich was average, the rice noodles were overcooked and the portion was too small. The first spoonful had flies that looked like peppers and I couldnt eat them. I received plenty of apples, but had to check each bite afterwards. A restaurant that misses both the taste of the food and the cleanliness... This is my personal experience, so the choice is up to you.
Really enjoyed this first time visit. Three of us shared vegan lemon grass chicken rolls, bbq pork salad rolls & chow mein. All were delicious. Cute place, good service. We ll be back!
Vegetarian options: Big portion and fair price Food
I got their house special roll and my friend got the vegan lemongrass chicken roll. Omg the vegan chicken looks, tastes, and smells like chicken! The peanut sauce is amazing I almost order another roll just for the sauce. The coffee was great you can never go wrong with Viet coffee. I would visit again soon and definitely recommend this place! Its only a 3 minute walk from SkyTrain station! Vegetarian options: Plenty of vegan and vegetarian options!
Excellent service Delicious food Reasonable cost Transit accessible (near New West station) Will come again
My first time ever coming and greated with a smile, good price for authentic vegan food and my first time ever trying a banh mi and I love it! Would recommend coming here for the food & smoothies ! 10/10
Came back after a few months of not being here & service was fantastic! Food was amazing (10/10) as usual, but this time we were provided great service and sat down to order (previously ordered at the counter). Keep it up, will be back soon :)
I ve eaten here a few times and each experience is the same. It s an enjoyable time, their Vietnamese Sandwiches and Salad rolls are always the highlight of my visit. The Vietnamese Lemon Grass Chick n Sandwich reminds me of the real thing which I used to have almost every day before going vegan. It was defenetly a happy surprise to find that item. I m happy with their pricing, even though it recent went up, it only went up by 0.20$, hardly noticeable. The lack of Gluten Free options is my only reason for not wanting to visit much. And with it having already such limited GF options, I find it necessary to add symbols on the menu telling the customer which ones are GF. This V-Cafe could very easily be a Vegan cafe with very few menu changes which I do find irritating, yet they do list it on each item, there is always the worry of cross contamination.
Such a cute cafe with a pleasant ambience. Food also tastes really good. Best part is its completely vacant.
Delicious vegan food!! The spare rib bahn mi is amazing.
One of my favourite places. It s super satisfying even as a non-vegetarian. I think their lemon grass chicken salad rolls are the best salad rolls I ve ever had. The flavor and the texture of the chicken is just delicious. Their vegan beef stew noodle soup is great.
The food here is truly incredible. Its one of my favourite restaurants. The staff are very kind and accommodating, so the service is excellent. Vegetarian options: Almost the entire menu is vegan, with the except of 2-3 items I believe.
monday Jan 8 2024- tried to come here for the first time and they said the kitchen was closed when on google it stated its open as does the signage outside. I will give 2 stars since first impression was not optimal and will gladly come back later and try this place out and give a full review. I recommend calling first to see if this place is open before coming here.
Cozy place! The people here are always nice, friendly and always smiling on top of their bang on food
Vegetarian options: Only vegetarian recipes Food
Yummy, love the salad roll with shrimp and avocado
The BEST vegan vietnamese restaurant Ive ever been to. The spicy noodle soup is seriously the best. Worth the drive every single time.
Had to take a course at douglas collage. Went across the street to eat was a great experience very clean great people excelent food. Thankyou tina Vietnamese
I love this place!!! So tasty, well priced, and amazing service. Ive been several times and will be back soon.
Awesome vegan food and a lovely service!
Really good food, I had the ginger chicken salad roll- good peanut sauce with chili oil on the side. Good service, and reasonable prices. Will return if I am in the area again!
Best vegan food in New West!! So many options. Coffee is really good too. Staff is super helpful in finding gluten free options. So yummy.
Unassuming spot for Vietnamese eats thats conveniently close to the skytrain station! Had their vegan pho noodles soup dining in, and their vegan lemongrass chicken salad rolls to-go. The soup was fantastic with a good depth of flavour and hint of citrus. It tasted and looked very homey. I do wish there was more of the vegan protein, but for the price and overall taste, it cant be beat! The salad rolls were quite large in size for $8.50. I didnt take a picture, but it came with 2 rolls. The vegan chicken had a bit of a spice. Very good meal or supplement when shared! We found it tasted good warmed up the day after, although its best fresh. There was a bit of a language barrier with the server asking about gluten free options and substituting sauce for the salad rolls. However, service overall was wonderful and friendly. Ill be back and would highly recommend!
It is no more Vegan Now , no Vegans can go there , introduced lots of meat items
great flavorful Vietnamese food
The food is just absolutely flavorful, I totally recommend it.
0/5 service. Workers were hidden in the kitchen chatting loudly and we had to speak quite loudly over the counter to get their attention and seat us. They are quite slow and forgetful. We asked for tea and they never brought it we had to help ourselves. They also forgot an order. Never checked on us ether. We even asked for more tea as it was out and it took so long for them we gave up waiting. 3.5/5 food. Overall tasty but relatively small portions for price in comparison to other Vietnamese restaurants. We ordered both rice dishes and noodle dishes and the noodle dishes are by far superior; we ordered three different ones and all were tasty. Would not recommend the lemongrass chicken rice platter. While it tastes fine, its not anything special or even house made. I have literally bought this same chicken from Safeway. For anyone who wants it, go look! The salad rolls and bahn mi were good. The strawberry smoothie is also not strawberry but some type of juice. You can taste the apple/pear base (think of berry flavoured Motts fruit snacks where they use apple and pear juice (even the colour is a full brown-pink). For 6 bucks thats not really acceptable. The mango smoothie does taste like mango and is good. I can see why this place is mainly takeout.
Went for dinner here today and it was delicious!!! My partner and I both loved our meals and will be back. Salad rolls are tasty and pho was large and hot with lots of veggies and meats . We both enjoyed it and commented on how fresh everything was. I can t believe I ve waited this long to visit being that I live and work close. It s very tasty and reasonable in price. The iced coffee is yummy too and a nice accent to the meal. Server was very nice! Overall, tasty vegetarian pho in a convenient location. Vegetarian options: Lots of veggie options! Caters to vegan and vegetarian. Dietary restrictions: Gluten free and vegan choices.
Amazing authentic viatnamese food! Mainly vegan with a very few non vegan options.
I had an incompetent male server help me. I asked for hot coffee and waited for 15 minutes, which by the time came to me cold in a single-use plastic to-go cup which was also labeled not microwave-safe. I asked him to serve it to me again, and instead put the to-go cup of coffee in the microwave. When I called the male server out on it, he had a hard time understanding what I was saying, but eventually understood that I was dining in, so he simply transferred that coffee into a mug instead of making me a new one.
Delicious vegan Vietnamese food! I have dined in and ordered delivery numerous times and the food is always consistent. Very fair prices and lots of options! I love the salad rolls with the peanut sauce - yum!
I ve ordered mainly sandwiches, some rolls, and all of their food has been great. I love how fresh everything feels. Edit: I ve been ordering their Pho and Tom Yum soups and both are amazing. Flavourful and fresh. Chicken nuggets are cool too.
The noodles and pho are so delicious omg. Salad rolls and peanut sauce are sooo good too. I got the vegan lemongrass chicken one
Amazing vegan food. I could eat here every single day. So many whole foods in the pho soup and salad rolls. This place is a win every time. comfort food, fresh food, all vegan!
Food was delightful. I had the vegan pho and a salad roll and it was great. Prices are very fair for the amount you get (with the free tea). Server was lovely too. Highly recommended.
My first try and will be my last try as I m super disappointed with the food here. I ordered beef stew and spicy noodle via Uber. No bean sprout/basil/lime/sauce packets comes with my order. Nothing at all!! The taste was nothing special and toppings are mainly vegan/vegetarian things you can get from frozen section at T&T or Vietnamese supermarket. Description mentioned there is mushroom and veggies but none in my order, I only got a couple slices of tofu, vegan ham and vegan beef. I ve gone to many Vietnamese vegan resto and also have tried vegan food in temple/churches, by far, this place is the worst!
This restaurant should be in vanxouver daily hive. Small little place, and the food is delicious. If you like Vegan Vietnamese food, then this is your spot
I really wanted to like this place but was left disappointed. I ordered a vegan Vietnamese sandwich for pickup and found the bread soft and not crispy, the ingredients inside felt a bit off. Flavours were ok but I could feel things not fresh. I got a bit of stomach upset later in the evening. Never going back again and hope this review helps.
Affordable quick options. Not much on ambiance and does not accept credit so bring cash or debit card. All vegan except they use real shrimp. Would be nice if they had more gluten free options. The first time I went staff told me everything but the bread was gf, unfortunately this is untrue, the fake meat products have gluten in them, so use discretion when ordering.
Great vegan restaurant! Delicious and fresh
This is a tasty vegan restaurant.... I love the curry soup
Absolutely delicious. I had the vegan lemon grass chicken baguette for take out. It was so good I walked back to get a salad roll. Friendly atmosphere and fair pricing as well. Definitely recommend
Great vegan food
My go-to place for vegan banh mi! Its sooooo hard to find banh mi thats vegan, I havent found anywhere that serves it with vegan mayo, so I always come here! The food is sooooooo good. I wish I knew about this place sooner! Though the portions are a little small, but the inexpensive prices balance it out. Im hoping for other milk options, like oat milk or soy milk. Ive been wanting to try their drinks but they only have almond milk, and Im allergic to almonds :(
These folks dont take credit cards. The food was good. I ordered spring rolls, they were yummy. But our drinks came by the end of the meal, at that time there was almost no point to have them.
Great Vietnamese vegan restaurant. The price is decent and the food is tasty.
Food is good. Do not know why options say vegan while served with chicken. Food itself is good and lots of Vietnamese/asian classics for affordable prices Food attendent/cashier got our order wrong. There was another review in thread below that mentioned the same thing happened to them. Just be clear with them when giving an order as some menu items sound the same
Always amazing service. The staff is so warm and friendly even when they are swamped with orders. The food is so delicious, and always amazing dining experience as most of their orders are to go. The good is fresh and delicious! For sure a go to spot for some tasty vegan dishes, and for those who arent vegan the food is still amazing, a person wouldnt even know. Vegetarian options: Almost everything is vegan Parking: Street parking using meters - have to have coins, No parking app to pay for parking.
Delicious food, punching through with flavours! We had the combo (pho and salad rolls), ginger vegan chicken banh mi, lemongrass banh mi! Affordable, healthy, tasty and very kind staff.
Vegan or not, this place serves one of the most delicious Bhan Mis Ive ever had.
Amazing vegan bahn mi very fair prices
This was my first time ever trying Bánh mì and I thought it was delicious! We tried the lemongrass chicken and the citrus spare rib and both were really good. Also had a salad roll with the lemongrass chickn that was delicious and some yummy Vietnamese coffees. A very nice birthday lunch :)
Great food and convenient location
I love this place. The best Vietnamese vegan place there is out there. Highly recommend!
Very close to New Westminster station and close to Douglas college too. The price is very friendly for student, and even though they are vegetarian restaurants, their salad roll with prawn is so delicious!!
I was in a rush so I didn t bother to check my Banh Mi but they got my order completely wrong. Not even close to what I initially ordered.
Full disclosure, I am a Meatatarian but this was a wonderful surprise with how delicious the Banh mi was. I was truly shocked with the flavor and meat substitutes while the vegetables were so fresh. The baguette was a 5/5 crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. Tried the Lemon Grass and BBQ pork which were both great. It will not disappoint and pricing was very reasonable!
Incredibly tasty!
Been coming here for years! An absolute favorite Vegetarian options: The entire restaurant Food : 5/5 |
Delicious and authentic Vietnamese cuisine, relaxing vibe, friendly vibe, highly recommended.
Editing my review to say that sadly this place discrimates even though the PHO doesn t include establishments like this in their fascist passport requirements. Sadly can no longer support after years of patronage Best vegan food ever. Never feel gross after eating here lol. Friendly staff. Could be a little cleaner but honestly still deserves 5 stars.
So good! One of my favourite vegan places. One of my go to is the lemongrass chicken rice platter.
Simply delicious! Will most definitely be back..
Absolutely delicious food! It has a quiet atmosphere that is great for people watching if you sit by the large windows. I liked the service, polite but they dont pester people about the meal like big chain restaurants, and the location is awesome! There is parking outside, and it is kitty-corner from the SkyTrain. I went pre COVID and a couple of times after. I loved it every time.
Great place, food was excellent, preparation very fast!
It was ok. The baguette was very light and crunchy but it was also light on the toppings. The salad rolls were very good though. Would return for salad rolls.
Great vegan pho and salad rolls!
Thank goodness I found this place! Vegan banh Mi are such a treat. Very tasty and fillings are just the right amount.
I ve only ever ordered takeout here, but the food is consistent and excellent, especially the vermicelli. It s also a great price for what you get IMO.
I always get the Vietnamese vegan rolls and they are so yummy. They come with a delicious peanut dipping sauce. Ingredients are always fresh!! Thanks
Service is really bad. Same with food
Very unfriendly experience. We were going to order several meals, but they are asked for medical records to sit down. The counter person started yelling at us, rather than provide masks so we just went somewhere else.
One of the best vegan Vietnamese restaurants in greater Vancouver. I dont live around the area but whenever Im in the neighborhood I make sure to stop by. The noodle soups are delicious if you have time to sit down and eat there. Otherwise my go-to is to order a couple of their banh mis (particularly the lemongrass chicken and BBQ pork), the vermicelli salad, and spring rolls. This place can get really busy during lunchtime so best to come a bit before lunch or after to avoid waiting.
Came to New West for a short trip and was a bit overwhelmed with how many delicious looking restaurants there are with so little time to try them. Im so glad that my boyfriend and I chose this place for our first meal here! I got their vegan pho and loved it. Atmosphere was pleasant and staff were friendly. Would definitely go back if I could.
Food is ok. Service is terrible. I ve ordered take out here many times because it s close to work, I like Vietnamese food. I also want to support local businesses. I generally don t have issues when I order takeout. However, the THREE times I ve tried to dine in have been terrible. The first time - I waited 15 minutes for them to take my order. There were only 2 other dine in customers who were already eating. I walked out because I was already so hungry! The second time - they messed up my order. The third time - they refused me entry today (March 14, 2022) because I did t have my physical ID with me to show with my vaccine card. I have dined in many restaurants with my vaccine card and a photo of my license, but this is the first time I ve been refused entry. Shocked! Never going back or even ordering in ever again.
Vegan Spring Rolls are amazing! I ordered the vegetable soup and it was okay. It s a bone broth! Not a soup!
Very authentic vegan pho place! Usually go there for rainy day.. It is so so good the best vegan pho so far
Loved the food, the service and the place. So soothing. I could eat here every day.
UPDATING: Since writing this 5 star review 10 months ago, I have been ordering regularly and everything has been consistently great, and have even turned some of my coworkers into big fans. However, something has changed over the past little while (couple of months maybe). The salad rolls (I always order the avocado and shrimp), are rolled differently and have a different unpleasant smell (chemical like), the rice wrappers are tough and chewy. I have also had a couple of things in my rolls (dirt, bug?). I certainly hope its not under new ownership and its going downhill. Hopefully someone from their kitchen staff is just on vacation and things will get back to their normal outstanding prep and food. Just ordered (through Skip) their Combo 3 - Pho and a salad roll - absolutely delicious, super fresh and came piping hot. Cant wait to try their other items. YUMMMMM
My partner and i both enjoy good food and ttied this vegan Vietnamese restaurant , sorry to say but the food is tasteless.!i ordered the spicy pho (tofu mushrooms broccoli etc etc) you could count the noodles (I think 8) and the broth was clear and tasteless .. I asked for hoisin sauce, fish sauce ( the said what s that) and .. oh yes one last thing . Spice. Hot sauce chilli peppers I hate sounding sarcastic but I honestly don t understand. The food was tasteless. Try the pho on 104 ave and 144 street in surrey much much better. V cafe us definitely not worth the money
The food is good every time I go there. Got different items this time; the vegan spicy noodle soup (with vegan ball instead of the vegan beef slides) a passion fruit iced tea and the vegan ginger chicken banh mi to have later on. The food was prepared right away and fast. Words of advice: the soup was quite spicy so you might want to wear goggles while eating it so that you dont have an eyeball-burning splashing incident. You also may not want to inhale to cool down your mouth when it comes out piping hot so as not to inhale the spicy fumes and make yourself cough and your nose run like a sick person may have. Take caution my fellow eaters (but Id order it again in a heartbeat!) The iced tea was the perfect balance of ice to drink and sweet to bitter with REAL passion fruit flavour (but no seeds.) The banh mi was the amazing crunchy but soft loaf with the right amount of crunchy veggies and gooey, saucy chicken.
I order from here pretty much weekly. Always fresh, always yummy. Ive tried most of the items on the menu and would highly recommend all of them. The salad rolls are my favourite!
Update: just a brief update to still say Im in love with this place. If I know Ill be in the vicinity at all I prioritize grabbing a bite to eat here, and Ive raved about this place to family/friends. So glad to see it still around! ------------- 4 Years ago - I recently discovered V Cafe within the last month, and have been back multiple times, hauling along a new friend each time. I never thought I could have vegetarian/vegan Vietnamese that was this good! Food is amazing and so reasonably priced. Their smoothies are delicious too. And the staff are friendly and accommodating. Highly recommend!
Delicious Vietnamese vegan soup bowls.
Vegan Banh my is highly recommended I hope they become 100% plant-based restaurant soon as there is item that not Vegan
Had the Shrimp Salad Wrap (C1 on the menu). Wow that was very fresh and tasty. Also had lots of vegan options too if you prefer that. Would definitely go more often if I could.
Veggan and delicious!!!
I am fully vegan but I m vegetarian so I end up looking for vegan food as it s easier to find options and I have to say it was AMAZING! It was also the first time I tried Vietnamese dishes and first time I tried pho as well and I loved it Definitely want to come more often!
Very good banh mi and iced coffee. Just disappointed my latest order the iced coffee did not come (not sure if the stores fault or uber driver, probably the driver). Maybe there should be a better way to package the drinks in a bag so the drivers dont forget it?
Ive lived here for about a month and I think Ive ate here 4 times? It is incredible. Extremely fresh and flavourful plant based dishes. Ive tried 2 different things so far: The vegan Vermicelli spring roll bowl and the Vietnamese vegan salad rolls with ginger pineapple chili sauce. I want to try more but these are just so good. I will eventually. Ive done both dine-in and pickup. The quality of both was the same. Service is extremely kind. Very casual dining environment where you help yourself to water and other condiments. Wifi is good. The only thing I will say is the dining room is really hot, so taking it to-go is a good option! Vegetarian options: Several quality vegan/veg options.
Absolutely delicious and delightful
C m n Super jealous of my friends Vegan Lemongrass Chicken Rice Dish Gà (xào s t), this was without a doubt a solid five star and phenomenal dish with great vibrant lemongrass flavor and super yummy soy-like texture from the imitation chickn. My Spicy Vegan Soup Pho Chay was a big letdown, did not look like the photos as advertised and barely had a sniff of vegetables as perceived from the photos and description. It was also more oily than Spicy and not the best. Albeit, my cà phê á vi t nam saved the day! Extremely tasty, refreshing and boasting that incredibly rich flavor from authentic vietnamese coffee, yum!! The perfect compliment to a sweet craving post lunch. This is a nice joint, good varied Vegan menu serving authentic vietnamese grub at average fare in a comfortable laid back environment. Order over 30 bucks and get a refreshing can of coconut water! Support local businesses!
Delicious and affordable. Best vegan restaurant in New Westminster!
Really enjoyed this little hole in the wall just down the street from the courthouse. It s hard to find such variety when it comes to veggie/vegan options and I really enjoyed the vegan lemongrass chicken rice platter as well as the baguette! Try adding some the delicious peanut sauce and enjoying some free tea. Definitely on my list of New West favourites.
Great vegetarian/vegan spot. Very reasonably priced.
favourite vegan spot in vancouver hands down. I ve ordered delivery from here 5 times so far and everything tastes amazing Love their banh mis and soups. Their soups are especially good because the ingredients aren t like the commonly used ones in vegetarian food (broccoli, mushroom, pepper, carrot etc) they also have taro and vegan hams, veggie meat balls, zucchini, daikon etc. The veggies are always cooked super thoroughly which i prefer over the half cooked-half raw kind i would love to try dining in sometime
Really good foods, will come back more often
Best vegan sandwichg
The food is very good and weve eaten here numerous times. The problem is the service can be so slow. We called in a pick up order and were told it would be ready in 15-20 minutes. I arrived 30 minutes after calling and then still had to wait an additional 10 minutes in the store. There were two dine in tables which had already been served and one take out order before me. It sucks having to stand around waiting.
I love this cafe. It is my go to for a healthy quick lunch. Nourishing but not heavy. Vegetarian options: Great vegan food!
everything they make is delicious. tons of vegan options that are all amazingly tasty. i find myself craving it all the time. always excited to go back :)
Awesome vegan food and delicious Vietnamese coffee.
Delicious food and good service . Banh mi had a very crispy fresh bun, could barely tell it was vegan ! Also best shrimp rolls I ve ever tried !!
Unpleasant experience. Had to wait 45min for a banhmi, a roll and a coffee. Coffee was just powder, and not even properly mixed. The baguette stayed too long in the oven and was super dry. The rolls were done quickly and the rice wrap was not wet enough, hard to chew. They apologized for the delay, but they served others persons that came after me and we werent a lot... really disappointed
Ive had their sandwiches and their vegan pho. Not being a vegan I wanted to try something different. It was definitely different. Very organic tasting...(simple but clearly food like chunks of carrot and cauliflower). Mostly like the vibe of the new west experience.
One of the best vegan Vietnamese food I have had! The spicy vegan noodle soup (bon bo hue) is out of this world. Ever since going vegan I haven t been able to have this soup cuz it usually contains shrimp paste, but this tastes exactly like the original, I was shocked. Their banh mi s and fresh rolls are awesome as well. Everytime I visit the Vancouver area, me and my partner always stop by here to get our fix and we are from Kelowna. Vegan or not the food is amazing and delicious, your non vegan friends will definitely enjoy it. Definitely a must visit. The restaurant itself is small and a little run down but the food makes up for it and the servers are kind and adorable. They also do take out/door dash so order in if you want soup in the comforts of your own home! Dietary restrictions: They offer some non vegan options
One of my favorite restaurant in Vancouver! The lemongrass chicken is so delicious. very fast in service.
I love and adore V-Cafe, thank you for making THE most delicious vegan food on planet earth. Last night I had the vegan citrus spare rib banh mi and *insert chefs kiss* the bread was stunning, so fresh and with the perfect bit of crunch and softness, the pickled veg were perfectly crunchy and yummy and the vegan citrus spare rib hit the spot. We also got spring rolls, and usually do, because they re awesome. Sometimes I get a pho or salad rolls or one of the platters, everything is super awesome and the team are so lovely. Thank you V-Cafe!!!
Fresh and delicious! One of the best Vietnamese restaurants in the Lower Mainland.
My family drives over from Surrey to pick up their vegan banh mi! Always delicious, always fresh. The family that owns the cafe are very sweet as well. Our favourites are the vegan lemongrass chicken and the vegan ginger chicken (a little on the spicier side). I m looking forward to trying their pho soon!
So good!
I had the vegan bbq pork (not real pork) baguette and it was amazing! Would highly recommend trying!
V Cafe is the best takeout spot in new west for sandwiches/platters/rolls etc, I normally get the ginger chicken bahn mi & salad rolls, it s perfect portions, full of flavour & very affordable. The staff is always so kind & I love to support this place whenever I can. 10/10 I highly recommend, vegan or non vegan this place is awesome.
Use to be really good, but not anymore everything changed. Must be new owner. Really sad was my favourite Place.
ATTENTION MEAT EATERS! You will not be disappointed. Their vegan meat is absolutely delicious. My favourite is the BBQ pork.
Great food!
Tried the.ginger chicken banh mi. It was delicious! The bun was crisp, vegan chicken was juicy and the veggies were fresh.
Great food. Dive like but cute.
It s quite alright:) better than expected:). Considering this is vegan.
Great food! Love the Combo 1, baguette with the lemongrass chicken, salad rolls etc! I hope that one day it will become a fully vegan restaurant.
I havent been here for a while, but I have always loved the V Cafe since it opened! I cant wait to go back and have some salad rolls and pho. Everything is fresh and delicious, for vegans and non-vegans alike!
As a vegetarian, I love supporting fully vegan restaurants and this one did not disappoint! The dishes were fresh, flavourful and delicious. The food came out pretty fast and you can tell that it is prepared with care. Friendly staff as well. I will definitely be coming back :)
Amazing food, very hearty and filling. The food was almost unexpectedly good, especially their vegan versions of meats. Service is a bit slow because they seem to have limited staff. Other than that, the place is small and clean
Some of the best food Ive ever had! This place cooked everything perfectly! It was truly so unbelievably good I would have it for my last meal! Highly recommended please go!
The lemongrass vegan vermicelli dish is amazing! Will definitely return to try other types of vegan meats
My favourite place to get vegan Viet food, this place never misses! Prices are super affordable and portions are big. My only wish was that it would be great if the decor/ambiance was a bit better but I guess its okay if the food is that good (and healthy!)
So happy to find an awesome vegan place in New West! The pho I got was delicious and I will definitely be returning to try more things!
Food is delicious and staff is friendly. Menu is mainly vegan items, but there are a few items that are not; so if you want some real meat, there are a few options for you too :)
Love the amount of vegan options they offer! Definitely a great vegan option place in New West. The vermicelli spring roll bowl is so good. Excited to try more from them. Staff is kind too :)
This restaurant makes me very very happy! The food is delicious and worth every dollar. So happy to have vegan affordable places like this one. Thank you!
Nice vegetarian place!! First time trying this place and already in love with it!!
Amazing food and coffee!
Although its hard to notice if you were not looking for it, youll remember where it is. As I was sitting waiting for my food I noticed the amount of orders they put out and I soon found out why. I had the vegan tofu pho with veggie spring rolls and it was excellent. I will definatly be going back !
Only had their banh mi. It took a really long time and the price wasnt worth it when there are cheaper options a few blocks away.
This restaurant is veggies only. I order a house special noodle in soup. The bowl noodle looks so boring and no flavour, seem like they use a pack of insane noodle and cook it. And very pricey also no full service Im so regret gave tips to the service didnt do much to service. I will not come back here again.
Love love this place. Great tasting foods! I am not even a vegetarian, but i love this cafe.
Great vegan place! Must try Pho and spicy Pho as well as Curry vermicelli soup!
Alright so came to this little spot in new west and I ve never had vegan food before. So I had the chicken platter and wow! It was really good Ive always said I d try something once at least. Id def go back for some more vegan chicken
Great PHO!
Great vegan place with tasty pho.
Have to talk about the bad service. Not rude by any means, but we had to approach the waitress on everything: getting water, ordering food, getting the bill. Id still come back as the food was alright (a bit sparse on the ingredients) and theres a great selection of vegan stuff (allergic to dairy and eggs unfortunately, so they were a godsend). To management, dont take it too hard, but please put a bit more emphasis on service when you get the chance. Times are tough and Id love to see this place succeed and expand!
Wow this place exceeded my highest expectations. The Bahn Mi sandwich was too good I really couldnt believe it was vegan... I still cant! Pho was also so amazing. Coffee was slightly expensive that would be the only very small complaint I could give and its not enough to lower the rate of stars. .
Great value, fresh ingredients and delish flavours. Fav was the v.spare ribs sub so far, but will be trying all!
This place has the best vegan pho out there. I have tried almost every vegan or vegetarian pho in Burnaby and this place outdoes them all! I will always recommend. Good pricing and cute atmosphere.
Former vegan, current vegetarian here! Ive loved V-Cafe ever since i first decided to try it about 3 years ago. My favourite go to is their classic pho noodle soup and vegan bbq pork salad roll. So good. Need to try more off the menu but id end up spending too much money for my own good. Please give v-cafe a try! Theyre great
