This little gem of a restaurant in Vancouver's West End fits right in to the neighbourhood's already awesome vibe. Even though it has been open for only two weeks, No Ne, which features northern Vietnamese cuisine, already has a loyal and growing fan base (now including us!). Dining here feels like you are welcome and honoured guests of the owners, Andrew and Ellie. The ambiance is cozy, comfortable, and super welcoming. The menu is informative and easy to understand. And our servers, Edward and Cara, not only showed us how to combine ingredients for an authentic eating experience, but also were total and complete sweethearts. And that's just the beginning - the food was AMAZING! We savoured every bite and really look forward to coming back soon - provided we can get a table (the first two times we tried to eat here, the line was all the way out to the street but third time's the charm). They do take reservations during the week, but not during weekends. We ordered V3 (Bun Nem Cua Be) - deep fried crab spring rolls vermicelli, and V8 (Bun Thit Nuong Cha Gio) - grilled pork vermicelli with imperial spring rolls. Both were absolutely delicious, with delicate yet complex flavours, tons of umami, and were presented beautifully, using authentic trays, bowls, and accessories imported from Vietnam (as are many of the ingredients). Andrew stopped by to chat with us while we were there, which helped us feel so at home and welcome. We will be back to "run the menu" - we plan to try each and every dish. But for now, two thumbs up for V3 and V8! read more
