I've been meaning to try Maenam for a while and finally got the chance! The food had really bold, strong flavours and overall was delicious Thai food. A few of the dishes surprised us in a really good way. Service was really friendly, although it could use a bit more refinement. Some dishes were explained when they came out, while others weren't. Overall, it was a solid meal and I'd recommend giving it a try if you haven't been. It is on the pricier side though. We spent around $100 per person including appetizers and drinks. read more

What are people smokinggg.... This place is a straight 5!! Vibes are clean. People are friendly and helpful. And the food is banging! One thing to note: The soups are more generous than you think and good for two people. Everything was yummmm!! read more

Maenam is in the Michelin Guide for a reason. This is one of the most unique modern Thai restaurants I've been to, taking traditional Thai dishes and giving them thoughtful, balanced refinements without losing their identity. The service deserves special recognition. We were accidentally served the Tom Kha Coconut Mushroom Soup (btw looked like piece of art:) and tasted superior than a regular tom kha you would get and all you taste is coconut milk) instead of the Hot & Sour Halibut Soup we had ordered. Before we even had a chance to mention it, the staff realized the mistake, brought us the correct dish, and kindly said, "We wanted you to try this one too." It completely removed any awkwardness from the situation and turned it into a memorable hospitality moment. The entire team was warm, professional, and genuinely welcoming. Even the little details stood out--Aesop soap in the bathrooms is one of those small touches that reinforces the restaurant's attention to quality. Food-wise, we thought abt getting the tasting menu however it looked like it wont give a good idea about what the overall menu is about so we stuck to alacarte. the Crispy Banana Blossom & Pomelo Salad is an absolute must-order. It's a beautiful dance of flavors and textures, balancing sweetness, acidity, freshness, and crunch perfectly. The Hokkaido Scallop Cupcakes were visually stunning. The scallop isn't the dominant flavor, but the bite is elegant, balanced, and very enjoyable. The Hot & Sour Halibut Soup was outstanding. The spice combination was layered without being overpowering, and it came with a generous amount of perfectly cooked halibut. Ironically, the mistaken Tom Kha Coconut Mushroom Soup was also delicious and would make an excellent vegetarian option. The Squid was well prepared, but compared to everything else, its flavor profile felt a bit flat. Since we couldn't finish everything, that's probably the one dish I would skip on my next visit. The Lingcod was another highlight. I highly recommend enjoying it with a side of rice to soak up every bit of the sauce. For wine lovers, nearly everything we ordered paired beautifully with the Terralavista Vineyards Riesling from Okanagan Falls, BC. Finally, don't overlook the cocktail list - I tried the Chai Thai Negroni, which was excellent, and after seeing the creativity behind the rest of the menu, I'd happily come back just to explore more of their cocktails. Overall- Creative without being pretentious, refined while staying true to Thai flavors, and backed by genuinely exceptional hospitality. I'll absolutely be back. read more

Excellent flavours and Thai food, with friendly service, probably deserving of its Michelin recommendation and awards. Note they have a tasting menu which is meant for groups but we ordered à la carte. What I would definitely repeat: - the Tom Kha soup is Excellent. The coconut flavour is out of this world and mushrooms excellent. - the crispy banana blossoms salad is very unique. I loved the banana blossoms. Wonderful creation and textures. - prawn salad is pretty good too - the flavours in the fish curry: top notch. - pad Thai. Really really good flavour. Sweet. - pork jowl and eggplant stir fry. I loved the pork. It was made crispy like bacon. I'm hooked. - the mor khang dessert. Really good. What is just ok: - the brussel sprouts. Good flavour but not crispy. - roti. Not bad but nothing special. - beef stir fry. Just beef no veggies. The beef has some good flavour but doesn't stand out like the other dishes. Overall great experience, would come back for sure. read more

What a fantastic experience! The dining experience is a multi-course pre-fixe menu in a modern Thai setting. The majority of the courses came out family style for our party of 5, each beautifully plated and smelling so good! The Tom Kha and watermelon w/smoked salmon bite were my least favorite (not in a "don't like" way... just not on my favorites for everything we tried). Otherwise I'm not sure what I'd choose as a favorite! It was all so delicious! I'm including a photo of the menu, as I couldn't even tell you all that we ordered! My brother and I opted to do the wine pairing with the meal, and I think with those selections, they were more take it or leave it for me. I wasn't a fan of the Riesling, but it benefited from the food pairing. Service was fantastic and I'd highly recommend this experience! read more

Maenam ended up being my favorite meal in my trip to Vancouver. The restaurant took care of my party very well throughout the set menu experience, and it was a very reasonable price. Several large seafood items must be ordered in advance, including the lobster claypot. If you are a fan of glass noodles and seafood, I would definitely recommend the dish! My favorite dishes were actually some of the starting bites, but the sable fish main was also very strong. Service was prompt and courteous, and they provided a free drink for someone in my party who accidentally spilled their first cocktail. read more

I'll be the first to admit that I'm not heavy on Thai food because I am picky. But Maenam isn't just any Thai food restaurant. It's an exquisite Thai restaurant that offers fresh, delicately balanced dishes for you to enjoy. Of course it's easier finding this place when your date loves food as much as you do and has a special back for the best places visit. You're greeted in the most polite way possible. Your sever guides you through the menu and make recommendations based on acquired taste for certain things. They ask if you have any dietary restrictions or food allergies. Truly top notch service. Then you get to these beautifully crafted dishes that just take your breath away literally. We mostly shared all of our dishes and despite eating it all, I didn't feel boosted or full. God vibes all around. read more

Fantastic Thai spot with terrific service and great food. We had the halibut curry and eggplant stir-fry; both were excellent, particularly the curry. The staff were very friendly and accommodating, and the interior of the restaurant is beautiful and pristine. read more

This is my second time here. First time was with a friend for dine out and it was a bit disappointing. This time it was very tasty! We got the pad thai, shrimp chuchi curry, chicken skewers and tom sap soup. The pad thai was tasty - noodles were chewy and sauce was good. Could use a bit more smokiness though. Chicken skewers also needed more smokiness and caramelization but the peanut and chili vinegar sauces paired well. The shrimp chuchi curry was very good - flavourful and shrimp were grilled perfectly. Lastly, the Tom sap was by far my favourite - sweet, sour soup with a kick. The pork bones were fall off the bone too. Service both times were great as well. read more

I went here for lunch with a friend during Dine Out Vancouver. I've been to Maenam a few times, but this was the first time for my friend. We had reservations so we were seated quickly, but the restaurant never more than half full that day. The space continues to look pretty traditional and classic. Since we already saw the Dine Out menu, we quickly ordered. Although all the food wasn't bad, I think it suffered a common issue with Dine Out menus - quality suffers to bulk production. The dishes didn't seem freshly prepared, nor carefully plated compared to previous visits. Service was adequate, but also didn't hit the same standard I've experienced before. So overall, it was OK. Nothing particularly memorable. I've certainly had better meals there before. read more

Came here last night for a light dinner with a friend and had a great experience! Interiors were absolutely beautiful inside and at around 6pm the restaurant filled up quickly! I wish I got to try more items on the menu, I'll definitely return for that. My friend and I shared the steamed mussels and shrimp pad thai and it was sooo flavourful. The mussels hit the spot and had a nice thai basil/citrus flavour and was paired well with a fish sauce dip. The shrimp pad thai was absolutely delicious and had the authentic tamarind taste. All in all, great service too and I will return read more

Delightful Thai restaurant located on West 4th and Cypress. Modern interior with woodsy paneling and mirrors to project size ambitions. Very neat and restrained but refined aesthetics. Our server(s) were very friendly and helpful. Not shy of telling us their favourites. This day we were here to celebrate a big bday. So it has to be perfect. The dining partner wasn't disappointed. We started with 3 small bites. Very tiny but interesting. Then followed by the soup of our choice-hot and sour clam and mushroom soup. So so for me, but my dining accomplice enjoyed it. Then next we had 3 main courses to share, curry beef, pork ribs and duck confit salad. Finally followed by 3 sweets. Needless to say we were stuffed. The food was flavourful and well crafted. Seems every aspect of our taste buds has been engaged. Really enjoyed the experience. Felt like being in Thailand and so much more than the average Thai restaurant. The only possible drawback is the noise level. Often scoring over 80 db on my smartwatch. The dude behind me with his long winded monologue gave me a headache. This is probably due to all the reflective hard surfaces of the place. Address that, IMO, it would definitely be a 5 stars joint. One of the best Thai restaurants in GVRD. Highly recommended, but bring ear plugs or anc headphones. read more

By a friend's recommendation, we made an appointment here on a Sunday evening and was blown away by the chef's tasting menu. When I think of fancy meals at a high price point, I automatically assume that each dish will be small and that I'd leave hungry. I was wrong! At Maenam, not only was the portion perfect for 3 people, the mouth watering and unique flavors from that meal is something we still talk about to this day. Even though we struggled to finish dessert, we did it anyway and did not regret it. The service was unbelievably wonderful! Each person we had the pleasure of speaking with was remarkably kind and never made us plebs feel out of place. If I lived in Vancouver, I'd come here once a month! Perfect for a special occasion, date night, or just a good meal with good people. 10/5 would definitely recommend! read more

Steep prices, however it was a pleasant dining experience. Service was upscale to reflect the prices. We had the tasting menu. The soup was the best part of the meal. It might be because I was so famished and it was the first hot flavourful dish that I had. I would return if I could have the exact same soup that tasted exactly the same. The beef currey, shrimp, and duck salad were also good but it did not make as much of an impact as the Tom yum flavour- bomb soup. Of the dessert the sorbet was the best to cleanse the palate of the rich dinner. read more

Fancy-ish Thai restaurant in Kitsilano, Michelin recommended for the year. Mid-small interior, has a number of small tables and also seats at the bar. Nice interior. We made the reservation for the chef's tasting menu which is $88 per person, and the portions are for 2 people. On the tasting menu, there are 3 options each for soup, salad, curry, and stir fry. You also get snacks to start, and desserts. The snacks were 3 different one-bite items, each with a different seafood paired with various ingredients. The most notable thing was how sweet some of the snacks were. Next up is the relish, which is prawn coconut and salted egg mix, and they provide some leaves to wrap up the relish. Was refreshing. Moving on to the soup, we got the halibut hot and sour soup. It wasn't really that spicy, but has a nice sour flavor that's not overly sour. Tastes like tom yum with halibut. Next up with the wagyu steak salad, which tasted like a standard salad with beef. The two mains we got were the red curry with smoked duck breast, and the turmeric lamb shoulder stir fry. The red curry was very sweet. The sweetness dominated the flavor of the duck as well. The lamb stir fry was in contrast salty and heavily flavored, and they put some peas in there. Finally, the dessert portion included 3 different items. A sorbet that was tart and refreshing, a brown sticky rice ball that looked a donut hole but was only mildly sweet, and slices of what was a less sweet version of creme brulee. Was an interesting tasting menu. Portions are not big for each item, but they do add up. Among all the items. I liked the soup the most. Service was very attentive throughout. read more

Fancy Thai and innovative but wouldn't say it blew me out of the water. Pricey. Service is good and nice place to try out fusion cuisine.

3.5 stars- I really liked their pad thai initially but the more I sit on it the more I think it's just similar to Thai Basil. Only Thai Basil is much cheaper and the same portion. Their interior are also more elevated so unless it's a specific occasion that requires a better ambiance then maybe head to Thai basil instead read more

I have my best friend and his partner take me for dinner I'll tell you first what I didn't like which was very little.... I did not like the fact that the portions were on the smaller side and how expensive they were That being said the service was fantastic The food was perfectly seasoned by a professional chef and it was so lovely and so well-balanced I will see this place is expensive it's not cheap... This is a place more for a special occasion but I'm so very grateful that they took me for dinner because everything was great I will have to say the ambience was all right it was nice The food speaks for itself If you only order 2 things there Order their brussel sprouts I know crazy it's a Thai restaurant but they were the best I've ever had in my life And then if I had to pick the second thing it would probablythey're eggplant with their crispy pork Jowl We also have the Krispy rice appetizer that is a 10 out of 10 We had a chicken curry a halibut Rice... The Roti was just okay that was the only thing that I probably wouldn't Order again Instead of having dessert which is super tiny tiny have yourself a cocktail there or a great beer If the prices were 50% less I'd probably be there once a month This is a Michelin star restaurant Once you taste the food you'll know why 9.5 out of 10 read more

Came here for a weekend lunch. Made a reservation, which I would recommend as there is limited seating. We chose to do the lunch set menu, which comes with an appetizer, a salad, a curry, and a stir fry for $45 per person. We went with: Tom Kha Coconut Mushroom Soup, Crispy Mushroom Laab, Vegetable Panang Curry, and 3 Flavor Prawn Stir fry. My sister is vegetarian, hence the all the veggie options. The 2 mushroom options weren't my personal taste, but I recognize they were complex and delicious flavors for someone keen on mushrooms. However, the Panang curry was absolutely delicious and I didn't miss the meat flavor at all. The prawn stir fry was deceivingly filling, as the prawns were gigantic! A very savory soy garlic flavor that I enjoyed. I'd love to return and have some more meat options. Although pricey, the quality and freshness of all dishes are very obvious. read more

YUM! I took my parents here for the chefs tasting menu and everyone was very impressed. We started with the snacks, which were definitely unique. Our favorite was the taco. For our soup, we chose the Tom Kha which I am still dreaming of. The delicata squash was perfect. For our salad we had the duck leg, which had a decent amount of meat on it! We also had the halibut curry, which was the biggest disappointment. It was a much different texture than expected and a little fishy. The rest of the mains we had were delicious though! I will definitely be back next time I'm in Vancouver!! read more

Another fantastic experience at Maenam. Everything was exceptional, but the Duck Laab was a standout. The snacks are always our favorite. The only small miss this time was the Chicken and Morel soup. It was the only thing we've had in all our visits that wasn't great. Very bland and boring. But that was a small piece of an exceptional meal. read more

Went to Vancouver for a business trip. Met up with some friends who lives in Vancouver and recommend trying Maenam. Cute small Thai restaurant with a very cool modern vibe. Service was excellent with the server being super attentive. We decided to go for their 14 course tasting menu. I wasn't able to post all the pics as it only allows me to add 10 pics to this post. The food was so amazing, small amounts so you can taste the flavours and also so you won't get too full. The tasting menu was interesting there was food that I otherwise would not have ordered at a standard thai restaurant. The server explained each dish that came to the table. All in all a very unique experience, the desserts were so good! In love tasting menus. This one is a must try!! read more

Yelp Review 2023 #287: I've only been to Maenam once while traveling in Vancouver. It's within walking distance from a Lululemon store and that's how I found this small restaurant. It's a busy place. If you're not a fan of waiting, order online for pick-up/ to-go. Grilled Wagyu Beef Salad: Lemongrass, fried shallots, toasted chili dressing, and tender beef. You simply can't go wrong with wagyu beef. Perfect marbling giving it lots of flavor and tenderness. The dressing has a nice kick. Not shy on flavors at all. 5/5 Pad Thai: Rice noodles, tamarind, peanuts, tofu, chives, sprouts, egg, and prawns. A classic. Soft noodles, tofu and egg; crunchy peanuts and sprouts - make the texture profile for this old time favorite. 4/5 Thai Iced Tea: Although they have a lot of delicious sounding non-alcoholic beverages on the menu, I had to stick with the tried and tested. It's a good Thai iced tea but I saw other people with nice looking drinks and I had drink envy. 4/5 The service was fabulous, friendly, and rather fast. I asked my server for recommendations, which I truly considered, but I ended up with my go-to dishes. The space is small. There's a bar and a few tables. It's a cozy little spot. Definitely worth checking out. read more

Maybe my expectations were too high--nothing was a wow. My husband was excited to try Maenam, especially after seeing their cookbook at the Granville Island Public Market. We weren't too hungry so we got pad thai and the eggplant stir fry. Nothing was a wow and the "prawns" were tiny! Portion was fine for lunch, but I was deeply disappointed as it wasn't cheap. Service was fine, and it was pretty loud for a late lunch. read more

Maenam is an outstanding Thai restaurant. My wife and I celebrated our 36th wedding anniversary there, and it was a fantastic experience from start to finish. The atmosphere is simple, warm, and inviting. The staff were friendly, welcoming, and attentive. The cocktails were exceptional -- I had a Thai-style Negroni, and my wife enjoyed one of their special creations. We chose the full tasting menu, and every course delivered incredible flavor -- from the appetizers to the mains, each bite was vibrant and memorable. Having visited Thailand several times and with many Thai friends, we truly felt transported back to Chiang Mai. We will definitely be back and happily give them five stars.

Because we were already driving, we decided to try this restaurant that is not in the city center. I was reading the reviews before going there, so it was simple to decide the dish we wanted. My husband and I ordered the same plate, the pad Thai. We really enjoyed it. I think half portion may be enough for me because I always get overwhelmed by the sweet flavor. But I guarantee that is was very good. It was our dinner and we were satisfied. read more

I would consider this a 3.5 rounded up because if one dish we ate! The crispy rice sausage salad was amazing and well balanced absolutely perfect 10/10 dish. We ate during lunch and had the sharing menu. We added roti and peanut sauce to that. I got a Thai iced tea and my fiancé a beer. Both were good Thai tea was a little less sweet than I was expecting. Panag chicken curry had good flavor, little oily and veggies were a tad over cooked. The stir friend beef would have had good flavor but the meat had an odd old taste too it. The duck salad was awesome! So weak balanced and delish! The roti and peanut sauce were excellent as well. I would come back but only really for the crispy rice salad and maybe to try the pad Thai! read more

Extremely expensive for very tiny portions. Not traditional tasting at all more of a hipster pub setting. Extremely loud and tiny seats with not much privacy to the party beside you.

For starters, this is a lovely Thai restaurant on West 4th. I want to say that my stars on this review are only a reflection of my thoughts based on my personal tastebuds and palate relative to the overall service and cost of dining. I still highly respect this restaurant based on the foundation and the skilled chef who began this restaurant's story, but it may have just not been one for me to enjoy. I decided to try out this restaurant earlier this month for my anniversary with the bf after hearing about Maenam float around Vancouver's food scene. The restaurant is small but cozy and it was filled with the hustle and bustle of chatter on a busy Friday night. We opted for the chef's tasting menu ($68/ pp) to get a full sample of Thai cuisine. When the amuse bouche rolled out, the high anticipation began. I don't completely recall what was on top of the pineapple and taro chip but what I do remember is the lovely mash of soft/hard textures combined with sweet and savoury flavours. Next up, the hot and sour prawn soup. It was HOT and sour indeed!!! The bf loves and can highly tolerate spice (like 2x spicy korean fire noodle type spice lol) so unlike me who had to back out after one bowl, he completely took over this dish. Needless to say his entire face was very moist with sweat after finishing it. I think it's a great starter dish to open up the tastebuds and prepare your appetite for the rest to come but be wary of the spice! The steamed mussels followed promptly with a side of thai basil nam jin dipping sauce. I really liked how the sauce was sweet and sour, it worked great at neutralizing the 'sea' in the mussels. I munched on it with a side of roti and it worked great together. Now after the mussels, there was a very long silence between it and the main dishes. I think dish timing could be a bit better, to bridge the appetizers and mains closer and perhaps space apart the mains a bit more - Once the duck salad rolled out the curry and squid followed immediately after and we were overwhelmed with quite a few things to work at. I quite liked the duck salad - it was a good mix of protein and leafy greens and hit the spot of savoury and sweet. Likewise, the curry also hit a sweet spot with tender beef and eggplant inside. The stir fried squid was well cooked, not overly chewy but I had a hard time searching for a prominent flavour profile. Dessert was probably the highlight of my night! Sadly I can't remember the name of this dessert but the texture was to die for...I love subtle sweet and wet cake texture (that sounds not appetizing and odd but for reference I love a well soaked tiramisu.) Overall, I think it occurred to me that I couldn't quite find the perfect 'umami' within this tasting menu. Portions were good and service was overall prompt and I found my mouth salivating and generally liking what I ate throughout dinner but I didn't taste complexity or the long lasting satisfaction on my tastebuds. Adding this factor into the $200 after tip bill.... Perhaps I'm not suited for Thai cuisine so take this review with a grain of salt! read more

Michelin-recommended Thai restaurant in Kitsilano that didn't feel like a Michelin experience at all. We ordered the Grilled Marinated Pork Jowl and the Beef Holy Basil SF and although the dishes were flavourful, the portions were exceptionally small for the price. Very average service too - the servers never came to check up on us after delivering the food. We will not be coming back here. There are so many other restaurants in the metro Vancouver area that deserve the Michelin recognition more. read more

New favorite thai place in Vancouver! Came here to celebrate an anniversary, was greeted by the nice staff. We had reservations and were seated pronto. It was our first time here so we asked for some recommendations, our server recommended the thai cupcakes with BC sidestripe prawns. She mentioned that we highly never have had anything like this before and boy was she right. So many flavors, blended into a perfect bite, it was our favorite dish for the night! A second starter we had was the grilled thai sausage and crispy rice salad-- another dish which we've never tried before, very delicious with a bit of tang. On top of that we had the pad thai was prawns which were cooked to perfection. The prawns were moist and juicy, not dry at all. Second main was the grilled beef green curry, also very delicious. We had a great dinner and would recommend it to anyone whos been looking to try a new thai restaurant! read more

Fantastic cocktails ! I would come to Maenam for them alone. Delicious food. Been here several times over the years and every dish has knocked it out of the park. Last night we had chicken Tom Yum soup, mussels and spicy tofu salad to start. The mussels came with a dipping sauce that was heavenly. Following these dishes we shared lingcod with 8 spiced sauce ( omg my favorite. Definitely not good for you as it's fried but for a special treat yes!) , stir fried crispy pork with purple eggplant, and braised beef curry. The beef melted in my mouth it was so tender. Get the homemade roti with peanut sauce too. Service is attentive and warm. The ambience is classy and cozy and covid safe. Plexiglass barriers all over the place. We came to Maenam for a special treat and we left our dinner happy as always! read more

Technology may be good but sometimes the old fashion way of calling the restaurant may also work, this is how we got our table! Nowadays, using APPs to book a table is almost the norm, but in my attempt to do this at Maenam, I was not able to do so for two occasions, as the APP says the night was full and automatically wanted me to book for the next day, on my 3rd attempt, I decided to give them a call, and with my luck we finally got a table! Once you are inside, you are greeted with a warm and relaxing dining room with a view of the gorgeous Bar! Staffs are casual yet friendly, provided us with just the right time for us to decide. Orders for tonight: Brussels Sprouts Salad - lets say we will skip this next time, I find it lacks any flavours and was just a fried sprouts with nuts etc. Fried Wings - This second dish totally salvaged the impression we had on the first dish, fried to perfection, with very little grease, the outer shell was light and crispy, the meat were cooked perfectly with juices oozing out when you bit in! The tamarind dipping sauce gave the whole dish an extra 10 stars!! Halibut with Green Curry - Best Green Curry in Vancouver is all I can say! Pad Thai - Their version is slightly on the moist side, which I really enjoyed, all the flavours were well balanced! I particularly liked the fried tofu which gave this legendary noodle dish more character! Honourable mention is their "Nam pla prik"! Perfect accompaniment to the whole dinner! More to be discovered!! read more

Tasty, way overpriced Thai food with plenty of vegan options. This is fancy Thai food with some dishes being fairly authentic and others being only Thai-inspired. The prices are exorbitant, and in my opinion, the quality does not come close to warranting the prices. That said, the food is very good. We ordered: -Crispy Brussels sprouts salad (vegan; $18 plus tax). This dish was not really Thai at all, other than the light lemongrass character. The sprouts were charred nicely, but the dish was missing something. It was under-salted and just all-round under-seasoned. Not bad, but this was a somewhat disappointing starter (especially for the price). 3/5 -Tofu larb salad ($29). This was solid. Very citrusy and acidic, but balanced with just enough sweetness. The tofu was cubed and cooked perfectly, accompanied with some greens, crispy shallows, and a touch of thin radish. Nice stuff. 4/5 -Tom gati vegetable curry ($32). I'd never had a white curry before, so this was a nice change. It's served with various root veggies (rutabaga being the centrepiece) and kale, but I think they change up the veggies since the menu said we'd get different veggies. The curry itself was wonderful, uniquely and richly spiced, and very hearty. It doesn't come with rice, so be sure to order some steamed rice on the side. 4.5/5 -Vegan pad thai ($25). This was wonderfully done. They got the tamarind character down perfectly, served with the traditional mix of sprouts, green onion, crushed peanuts, and chili flakes on the side. And this vegan version comes with thin strips of fried tofu. Excellent stuff. 5/5 The service was top-notch, very attentive and helpful. The food is certainly good here, but only slightly better than vegan Thai food you can get elsewhere in town, which does not warrant such prices. I'll probably return at some point in the future for a special occasion. read more
