The staff here were amazingly kind and helpful, and the food was great! I stupidly left getting food until the last minute better my bus ride and they were kind enough to rush the order for me, and still did a great job. These employees are 11/10 for service!

The A&W in the train station is a great place to have a tasty and very reasonable meal. The staff are very professional and full of easy smiles that improve the meal immensely. I still love the root beer in the large frosted mugs. The food is always great no matter what the choice. A thoroughly enjoyable place to eat.

Store was very clean and nicely appointed. Lots of seating and natural light. A good place for anyone to grab a quick bite. First time with A & W, better than i expected. Believe this is the best place for breakfast or lunch at the Pacific Central station Friendly and supportive staff and very quick.

Good fresh burgers...still delicious after a 10 min drive. Friendly staff and very quick. Onion rings were nice and crispy. Poutine had lots of cheese curds and gravy!! Store was very clean and nicely appointed. Lots of seating and natural light. A good place for anyone to grab a quick bite.

Had dinner here whilst waiting for out Via Rail. Loved the idea of frozen cup with root beer. Awesome. Burgers were of good quality for a fast food joint. First time at A&W and was pleasantly surprised.

It was the Food Truck that I found accidentally on Fraser Street. I had delicious Samosa Chat, Sev Puri, Bhel Puri. They also provide Chicken samosa that is worth trying. I found Bhel Puri a bit dry but they were kind enough to pour more chutneys when we asked. They are welcoming and I love their hospitality. Their food is worth trying and I will try different food in future. GO FOR IT!! 👍 For more foody experience FOLLOW 👇 (INSTAGRAM)- @thatfoodyfellow

Ordered Chicken biryani and it was average in taste . Very limited chicken pieces and huge tomato pieces is disappointing. Plus you should give curd separately since you can’t re heat it when curds mixed . Overall average experience.

Kalai Curry Kitchen in Vancouver is absolutely amazing! The butter chicken is a must-try – it's creamy, flavorful, and cooked to perfection. The ambiance is cozy, and the staff are incredibly friendly and attentive. If you're in the mood for some delicious Indian food, Kalai Curry Kitchen is the place to go!

Tried the samosa chat here. Very good Street food taste. And the price is hard to beat. Well worth it for five dollars. If you're traveling by car, the location may be a bit tough to stop as there's a large sky train station nearby. The takeaway package was good and compact.

Nice place. The service was good, it was clean inside. The food was ok, but I didn’t really like the meat. I mean for $10 a can of pop and a pita is really cheap! And this pita is quite big.

I had a wonderful first-time experience with superb staff, especially Gagan and Micky. The food was enjoyable and I appreciated their kindness, respect, and gentlemanly behavior. I hope to return soon.

I ordered two chicken value meals, which is their special deal currently. The price is about $10 and the quantity is OK. Not something I would go for all the time but in a pinch it does the job. The value meals come with rice, meat, sauce, with a few small potatoes on the side and one pita with a container of hummus. Food is tasty and comes with enough sauce but overall ok.

Great customer service! Everything is prepared fresh. The Teriyaki chicken bowl is so delicious. Will definitely eat here again when I'm in Vancouver.

Fairly Average sushi but decent enough. Quick service so good for take out. Cheaper than most places now a days
Callum A - a week ago

Given the price and convenience, this sushi is excellent! So convenient for travelers via Pacific Central Station - the best option around! The workers are nothing but friendly and this sushi just tastes great!! Definitely a place worth stopping at if you plan on taking VIA Rail, Amtrak, etc!

First off I'd like to say that I am a man of all cuisines but Japanese food has a special place in my heart! I was driving westbound on Terminal Ave approaching Main St. when the snarled traffic diverted me onto Station St.The words 'Sushi' and the hard to see open neon sign caught my attention like a squirrel to a dog. So I did it! I went right after work at 445pm and slithered my way through the Train terminal as Ekki Sushi was located inside Pacific Central station. The station itself was bare, and there were signs directing you to the restaurant. The restaurant is located on the right side of the station, a bit hidden so there were a few signs pointing to the little shop. There's a table partition at the entrance of the restaurant with menus and a bottle of hand sanitizer. The chef comes out and takes my order, he's a nice young gentleman. I ordered Salmon Poke and a California roll and he said 15 minutes. I head out to my car and wait. Come 5pm I try going back into the station *tug & yank* hmm seems like the doors are locked (presumably for safety purposes), and a printed sign says 'please dial xxx' to open the door, and so I do! Phew, thought I had been late to pickup my order and the station locked me out! So I head in following my nose and sitting at the partition was my food ready and waiting. I thank the chef and I head out for another 'trunk meal'. Unbeknownst to me the chef snuck in a bowl of miso soup *thank you very much* I quickly open my food and was amazed at the detail and attention to my poke...then how my California rolls were so perfectly shaped and proportionately made. I ate it all and washed it down with the soup, PERIOD! The poke bowl was at the perfect temperature with all the 'new school' toppings without going over board. The fish was soft and a bit chewy texture, salmon. The California roll was tasty as it's well proportioned (none of those gargantuan Cali rolls *I'm looking at you Samurai Sushi*). Overall, this place is a true hidden gem. At first I thought the prices I saw online was what I'll be paying, but upon comparison the menu I saw was larger and contained more options. TLDR; poke bowl was delicious. California roll was delicious. Washed down with miso soup, too was delisioso! Will return.

Nothing special about the portions or the flavors. Price was only acceptable due to the 32% off discount on Fantuan. We pre-ordered for 5:00 - 5:30pm delivery. The restaurant started preparing the food around 3:30/3:45pm. Our food was ready for delivery around 4:00pm. Unfortunately, because our food was not scheduled for delivery until 5pm, so, our food just sat there for at least an hour before it was picked up by our delivery person. Delivery took another 30 minutes or so. So, by the time we got our food, the hot food was cold, cold food was room temperature. Most unsettling was that they packed one of our sushi with the hot udon and the sushi was warm. From a food safe point of view. I would not order from this restaurant again. Two stars only because we didn’t actually get food poisoned. Edit: delivery app followed up and said the restaurant might not have known when the delivery period was and started the order too early due to a system error. With this clarification I will give them benefit of doubt and revise to 3 stars.

Best bacon cheese burgers and wings in all Vancouver and just for $15. Recommend the spicy BBQ wings.

Very rich, creamy, and chewy jumbo sized macarons! Wish there were more than 3 flavours on the day I went. Small shop with friendly owner, however the location isn’t exactly stellar.
Kenrick Li - a year ago

Taking over the former Kobob Burger on Main Street is Cafe Take Urban which specializes in Korean style macarons - Ddungcaron. Ddungcaron (뚱카롱) is a popular rendition of macarons found in Korea. It means "fat macaron", and it gets its name from the outrageous amount of filling between macaron shells. In addition to their macarons, they also offer a variety of sandwiches, rice bowls (which they dub 'Cup Bob'), and espresso beverages. I started off with a Dirty Latte. It gets its name from the shot of espresso added into the drink. The matcha taste was strong and the shot of espresso didn't overwhelm the strong matcha taste. I also tried the Chicken Pesto Panini and it was perfectly grilled and stuffed with ingredients. The chicken worked well with the pesto and there was a generous amount of cheese which made for a very fulfilling panini. In a nod to their Korean roots, they also offer various different rice bowls. They have chicken, veggie, beef bulgogi and tuna mayo. I went with the spicy pork. All the ingredients worked well together and the spicy pork was very savoury. I didn't find it spicy at all, and if I got this again, I could do without the mayonnaise. The macarons here are expertly made and the flavours that are being offered are very unique and not offered any where else in Vancouver. All the flavours were on point, but my favourites were the Real Oreo and Birthday Cake. If you're a fan of the White Rabbit craze going on the Sweet Milk flavour tastes exactly like White Rabbit candy! Overall, I had a great experience. The service was friendly and the food was executed well. The macarons are extremely well priced (only $3.00 each!) and they would make for a lovely gift.

I can definitely tell this is the best macaroons in van. (I’ve been to so many different macaroon places in van) My friends brought me some last time and I just fell in love. So I went to all the way to vancouver from surrey only for these macaroons. I can’t believe I found these perfect macaroons. Chewy, flavourful really thick and big. I tried every single flavours. The favourites are oreo, milk, and cheese cracker flavour.
Sona Hong - 5 years ago

I visited Bodega several times. Their Ceviche is the number one in the Vancouver. I ordered 2 more tapas blistered peppers and fried eggplant. Blistered peppers is an amazing tapas with drinking. I’m so happy that my new try hit the spot!! The Paellas is such a generous portion and taste is good so must order it! I think Bodega uses good quality of seafood to keep their standard. However, the eggplants couldn’t meet my expectation. I had this dish at Como as first try and their eggplants are unbelievably fabulous taste! Also, lamb chops that I had been good experienced at Bodega last time was so so. There are many dishes I haven’t try at Bodega, hopefully I find more good dishes from you!

If you love, Spanish tapas and authentic paella, then look no further than this restaurant while you’re in Vancouver. Reserve a table ahead of time because this place is always packed. It’s very difficult to simply walk in. My recommendation is have one paella between four people instead of two and load up on tapas
Kelly K - 3 weeks ago

We went to celebrate a friend's birthday. They were able to accommodate a large group on the lower floor. The server was really friendly and patient. The food was overall good with a few reservations. The lamb chops were incredible! Really well cooked, tender, and delicious marination. Highly recommended We ordered the brocollini and shrimps tapas. They tasted great but the portions were obviously small. We also ordered the paella negra and mixta. The portion was adequate for 2-3 people, however they were not as good as expected. We had churros and creme brulee for dessert. The churros were fried properly. They were still light in colour and one could taste the dough. The creme brulee was generally good. For the price point, I would go for very specific items on the menu. Service was good though, so it made the experience worthwhile

I came back from a month trip to Spain, and was fancy of another good quality seafood. We tried Bodega for the first time and we get amazed with the food quality. We tried grilled octopus Yummy! No chewy texture at all. It was a bit overpriced tho. Also Olives are one of the best features of this place. You never get disappointed. Service is ok I guess We came back on our wedding anniversary, paid a good amount on our food, but didn't get anything special on our occasion

Everything was decent, but beef tongue was probably the best dish of all three. It was so soft and tender. Clams were a bit underwhelming and had sand in them. Great atmosphere and friendly servers.

Machete Mexican Restaurant offers a warm and welcoming ambiance that immediately makes you feel at home. The staff is incredibly friendly, greeting you with smiles that set a positive tone for the experience. The drinks are fantastic, with the coconut lemonade standing out as a must-try; it’s refreshing and perfectly balanced. However, the food is where the experience falls a bit short. The dishes lack the expected spices, especially salt, which is disappointing for a Mexican restaurant. If you’re looking for that vibrant, spiced flavor profile typical of Mexican cuisine, you may find it missing here. Overall, it’s a great spot for drinks and a pleasant atmosphere, but the food could use a little more seasoning to live up to the full Mexican dining experience.

Healthy Mexican food. Colourful environment. Limited indoor seating but they did have another room with tables that could be utilized. Paid parking on main street, close to main street SkyTrain. Friendly service. If hungry I would recommend the larger plate dishes. Clean. $$-$$$.
Robert Kent DesRochers - a week ago

Machete is a unique Mexican restaurant. I love the blue corn that they use and horchata is quite nice. They dont serve alcohol which was a pleasant surprise! This business aims for healthy meals. Server is very friendly. You can see he works hard. The food is a bit underwhelming the salsa has to make up for the spice i desire but its still tasty.

Very down to hearth’s place, with cute decors, a very extensive menu, we pick up a few dishes, the blue tortillas and mole not to missed. The customer services was very cordial, but could be improved. I will came back to try more of the dishes.
Chef Menajem Peretz - 2 weeks ago

The food was good, and there were plenty of options! We we t for lunch, but were so hungry that forgot to take pictures of the mains. Our server Ana was incredibly helpful, knowledgeable, and pleasant. Will be back to try their esquites/elite as they used authentic Mexican purple corn. Even the tortillas used for my boyfriend’s machete and my tacos were purple. They also have plenty of Mexican drinks available and dessert. This is a photo of their Flan, which has a refreshing cinnamony taste.

Color me impressed! Wasn’t expecting much for a $70 tasting menu, but it was absolutely punching above its value. Plating was nicely done, and the flavors were spot on. Above all the service was absolutely brilliant.
Darren So - in the last week

Had the tasting menu with a group of 10 and everything was amazing. Each dish so good and a variety of tastes and textures. Same as the Omakase, but a bit cheaper cuz we were a big group. Great value actually as we were all stuffed and very impressed. Favourite items were the halibut and risotto, braised beef cheeks, and the mushroom udon. But damn everything was super tasty.

Torafuku is a gem of a pan-Asian restaurant. I thoroughly enjoyed the pork and chicken bowl—the meat was crispy tender and flavorful, perfectly seasoned to bring out its rich taste. The cracker salad was a delightful mix of textures, with a satisfying crunch that complemented the fresh ingredients. And the burnt cheesecake? Absolutely divine—creamy with a beautifully caramelized top that added a subtle smokiness to each bite paired with blueberry sauce on the side. Service was excellent by the way. I also had the yuzu lemon sparkling drink, which paired wonderfully with the meal, adding a refreshing citrusy note that balanced the richness of the dishes. I’ve been here many many times… dine in and take-out. So far so good. So, if you’re looking for a place that offers inventive and delicious pan-Asian cuisine, Torafuku is a must-visit. I’ll definitely be coming back. Suggestion: Hopefully they’ll come up with something new as I’ve been ordering pretty much same same food with only a limited selection on the menu. (I might eventually get bored even with good food).

Came here to celebrate a birthday. Food was good overall but some dishes lacked flavor, their cheesecake and cocktails were delicious tho! Giving four stars because service was extremely slow - they took more than 30 minutes to take our drinks order after we told them we needed a few minutes to check the menu :(

Came here after a long bike ride so I came in hungry!!! I especially love tripe in my pho so I wanted to try this place out cuz they are one of the few places that have tripe in pho. The portion size was great I was satisfied at the end of my meal. I am a big eater! The spring roll took a while for it to come out but that’s because they made it fresh! The atmosphere feels like a typical viet mom and pops feel! While you have old classic late 80s love songs playing! Lol the service is okay, if you call them over they will come right away but they didn’t really come by to check on things during my stay there. Which was totally fine cuz I didn’t want to be bothered this day! I would come back again!!
Estairia Hong - a year ago

loved the food i got here!! i had the grilled prawn with vermicelli noodles and spring roll and it was so bomb!! my boyfriend got a pho here too, i forgot exactly which one it was but i saw it had prawns in it and the broth was tasty!! service was quick! and the complimentary tea was super tasty! location is great too, being so close to the sky train station and all. although i came her during the day, im happy its open late because i definitely want to eat here before a night out with friends in the future!! i will definitely be coming back. only thing is that there weren’t any vegetarian options if thats an issue for u!
