It was 4 of us and we got a table right away without a reservation on a Saturday afternoon. Their ambiance is sheek and minimalistic! A good place to relax with friends, it's definitely more of a cafe vibe. You have to go upfront to place your order and then take a seat. We ordered their shakshuka from their brunch menu - it was pretty good! The sourdough bread was amazing!! We also got their chicken sando which came with buttermilk chicken, salad, and pickles. Really liked it!! Would recommend :)

I came in wanting food. Wasn't breakfast but I didn't want Lunch. So I had this breakfast thing…read more It came with potato nugs, two bacon, 2 eggs, two toast, and a salad and I added avocado. I think I paid almost $27. I was really not impressed. The nugs. Tasted great. Half was still luke warm INSIDE the potatos so I'm guessing re heat on the pan etc. half hot. Half sorta warm. The bacon. Can anyone complain about bacon? It was great. The eggs... I liked the eggs but I wish they threw that on top of the bread. Because a wooden fork that doesn't pick up nothing. It was a mess to get the sunny off the take out container bottom. Otherwise the eggs was great. The toast... well I wasn't a fan of it. Maybe if it had been packed on the side in a bag I might of. I don't know. It wasn't great and it tasted sweet cuz of the salad they put on the other side of the bread in the box. I didn't like the salad. I don't like sweet salads and the dressing ruined the bread. Yep so the salad. The ingredients in the salad was fine. I just didn't like the dressing. Had this been dressing on the side I would have liked the salad. The avocado. I paid $3 for half an avocado. I wouldn't so much complain about that. If the whole meal itself wasn't such hit and miss. But overall. $27 including a $3 tip I was not impressed for what I got. And I'd dare say the highlight was the potatos even though half of the wasn't even hot. I would of really enjoyed the eggs if there was a way to get them on the toast (without the dressing contamination) without the egg breaking before I could get it on the toast (sunny side up) While I work practically next door, I can't say I would do this order again. Service was fast. For take out. Less than 10 mins. But I think I'd of prefer to wait 2 more mins if the potatos would of been reheated through

As planned, I returned here with my daughter and we had the most wonderful meal! This time, we…read morearrived on a Friday night, at 7pm, and every single table save one was occupied! We were so lucky they could seat us, as we did not have a reservation. The ambiance was vibrant and animated. My kid and I shared an appetizer (white prawns with some sort of amazing Greek cheese. I forget the name), and the grilled sea bream. Both dishes were incredible. Our server was Jay and he couldn't have been nicer. Everyone was lovely. We definitely will be back!

Seems to be a family-run place and their friends and family were also dining and visiting, so it also felt very homey. We ordered the meat platter for 4 and had enough for leftovers. We waited a bit for this to come out, but it was worth it! My fave of the meats was the ground beef (keftedi, I think??). We also got the small Greek salad to share, lemon roasted potatoes, and grilled octopus. For dessert, we tried the phyllo dough with vanilla custard -- never had anything like this before but we truly enjoyed it! Staff was friendly and attentive. I would come back here for sure!

Great deal for a charcuterie board, in my opinion. We got other dishes and it was really yummy too!…read moreDon't sleep on the kale gomae. Only thing is the server who gave us continual reminders of our seating time starting from the beginning of our seating. It made our experience very uncomfortable.

Well, what better time to go then for my boyfriend's birthday? We came with somewhat full tummies and so we only got the cauliflower to share which was unique but the real star of the show are there cocktails. I started out with their cocktail which is their name sake: grapes and soda. It was so drinkable and delicious. My boyfriend got their special which he loved so watch out for those. We tried another one that was really a beautiful drink which I think was the umeshu shiso soda wari and finally zombie cure. 3.5 oz and you do NOT taste the booze -- these drinks are DANGEROUS and delicious. Come for the good cozy vibes and drinks. Maybe leave more room than I did as I spotted some beautiful local inspired menu items!

This review is 3 months late, but even a few months later, we remember our meal like it was yesterday and can't wait to return the next time we're in Vancouver. Getting to experience a Michelin Guide-recommended vegan restaurant was one of the highlights of our trip! We had (from the June 2025 menu): the Bread, the Broccolini, the Chickpea Tofu, and the Potato Cavatelli. Not a single crumb, morsel, drizzle of sauce, or even pea was left on the plates! Every bite was so full of flavor and decadent, we were so sad when the meal was over ;) The stand-out though was the Chickpea Tofu, the best tofu we've ever had and it seemed to just melt in your mouth. We also loved sitting at the bar that overlooks the open kitchen. They offer those seats for guests who want a more immersive, interactive dining experience. It was really cool to watch the chefs create each masterpiece. Overall a truly memorable and delicious experience!

There is free entry; you just have to wait in line for a stamp, but it's worth the wait. You can buy drinks at the concession stand, where they sell some craft beer, coolers, and non-alcoholic options. On one side of the concession, there's also a place to buy bottles of wine. Once you've got your drinks, there are plenty of different tables and chairs to sit at, or you can just stand, which is what my friend and I did. Connected to the concession, they also sell Downlow Chicken. I didn't get any, but it smelled sooo good, and I'll definitely have to try it next time I visit. Honestly, this place reminded me of a lot of spots I've been to in Europe, which I absolutely love. I'm so glad we're starting to get cool places like this in Vancouver!

My husband and I came here for an early dinner before their "Pottery Night" event…read more We each had a flight of ciders (they had 20 on tap)! It was really awesome to try so many different types of cider. We also enjoyed the well made vegan menu and shared: Burger with side of poutine - the burger was very tasty, and the fries were top notch. The mushroom gravy was a bit too heavy on the corn starch or whatever thickener they used, making it weirdly gummy, and was somewhat lacking in flavour. But otherwise this was quite good. Jackfruit Tacos - we ordered an extra one. This was decent, but a bit underwhelming for me. The ingredients were fresh. As for the Pottery Night, that was fun! Anais, who runs the event was very kind and patient, and gave us guidance along the way. I ran out of steam after making a few Christmas ornaments, so my husband used the rest of my clay for his projects (ashtrays). I recommend signing up the next time they do this!

If I had to find a fault I would say the fries could be a little crisper. They have 19 ciders on draught, which are available by the 12oz or as a 4x4oz flight. I recommend doing the flight, as there are so many delicious flavours of ciders that this is the best way to try many. There is a small outside patio, and reasonable sized seating area inside. We were there mid-week for a late lunch, so they werent too crowded, but I can imagine this place is very popular in the evening and weekends. It's also a convenient short walk to Kitsilano beach. What better way to cool off after some sun than some cold cider!

We started with the hummus as an appetizer, which was creamy and flavorful. I also ordered a drink from their 1001 Nights menu, and the presentation was so cute--it actually came in the form of a little storybook, which was such a fun and unique touch! For our main dishes, we ordered the salmon skewers and kofta skewers. Everything was incredibly flavorful, well-seasoned, and cooked nicely. The flavors really stood out and made the meal memorable. The service was initially great, and our waiter was very kind and attentive. However as time went on sadly we felt like we had gotten forgotten and we had to remind another waiter to bring our food. They also brought me the wrong dish although I had ordered the salmon skewers so we had to wait for that a bit. The main food sadly was not as flavorful as the appetizer and the drink although the presentation was good. However the manager was kind and apologized and brought us a complimentary Dubai dessert which again had a great presentation but was too sweet for my taste. I will still give this a place a shot in the future.
