GlassHouse

We tried Glasshouse on a walk-in on a Sunday evening (all day happy hour was a bonus!) Seated with minimal wait at 6pm, however reservations recommended as it may fill up later into the evening or on a typically busier evening/time. Overall great atmosphere, friendly & personable staff, top notch creations served by the chefs who clearly show a passion for their craft. Plates were presented well, tasted great, and portions were a good value. We got the 7-course meat tasting (3 appies, 3 mains, 1 dessert) and juniper-infused proseccos. Highly recommended spot to add to your list if you're in the area or looking for a new place to try!

Glass House in 4th. This is a very good atmosphere boutique restaurant. We are vegetarian with no 5 pungent vegetable. The chef can accommodate us and custom for us. Very appreciated. Easy street metre parking. Remember to reserve your spot before coming. Highly recommended.

I Had a great experience at this restaurant! They can accomodate many palates, and dietry restrictions. They now have meat dishes on the menu also. Great atmosphere and the staff were incredible. Food was excellent! I ordered the Bison burger which was served very quickly. The food was serves hot and delicious. Really impressed with the new owner Mike.

This all plant-based spot is absolutely amazing! I went last week and was blown away by the friendly staff, great vibe, and delicious food. I treated myself to their matcha strawberry cheesecake (a must-try!) and the lemongrass b'ef—both were absolutely delicious. I was so impressed, I came back this week and brought my husband along. We tried the dumplings, f'sh, and pho—everything was packed with flavor and beautifully prepared. If you haven't been since the new ownership took over, do yourself a favor and go. You can really taste the care and quality in every dish. Highly recommend!

Went in expecting Vietnamese cuisine (based on what I’d heard), and was surprised to learn it’s no longer that. It’s now mainly vegan, with a few meat options. Honestly? Happy surprise. Food: Everything felt really delicately executed and thoughtfully balanced. • Prawns appetizer (5/5): Great portion size, and the pesto with sun-dried tomatoes was a delicious combo. • Lemongrass soup (5/5): Perfect portion for two. The herbs came together smoothly, and the coconut milk didn’t overpower the dish. • Steak & couscous (4/5): Tingly and sweet in a fun way. Slightly too oily for my palate, but I really appreciated that they pre-cut the meat and portioned it out for me. • Strawberry & matcha cheesecake (4/5): Nice cheesy flavor, and it successfully masked that “vegan cheesecake” aftertaste that a lot of places can’t escape. Service: The server was fantastic. Friendly without being overly chatty, explained up front that it’s a newer restaurant (which set expectations well), and always asked if we’d like dishes pre-split. Super considerate. Overall: A lovely experience, not noisy at all. Washroom is clean. The place is clean.

Nice place. It wasn't busy when we went on a Thursday night. Some dishes were definitely better than others. Food came out fairly quick. My friends and I really enjoyed our evening and would be back. I know with the food industry its a little hard to find people these days. Their was one person as greeter/waitress/bartender. And I believe the chef/owner also helped served food.

I think there’s something wrong with the Google review page. This is not an Asian cuisine restaurant as it says on the overview. Some refer to it as “Chi” restaurant and reviews are up to 5 years old. But the restaurant is only 5 months old as of Feb 2026. Very strange. I’ve never seen an overlap like this. In any case the non Asian food restaurant Glasshouse we dined at was delicious. Service from Gracie was friendly, fast and attentive.

My only knock on this place was the karagee which did not have proper batter - what they were using is more of a fish and chips type of batter which doesn’t really do justice for proper karagee. However, was very pleased with the entres especially the truffle mushroom pasta. Combine with top notch service, gorgeous interior, and very generous pricing and portions, I would highly recommend this place. Businesses like this deserve success.

Now under new ownership and much improved! New menu, still all-vegan, but less fancy and more affordable. My wife & I stopped in for lunch on a Saturday. We split two banh mis -- a smoked tofu and a veggie beef -- both of which were excellent. We also split the Brussels sprouts, which were oily but tasty. Lastly, we got some Vietnamese coffee, which was solid despite it taking 15 minutes to filter through at the table. Top-notch, friendly, hospitable service. Great spot now!

Wow! What a pleasant surprise! Chi hit the spot! Summary: The restaurant has an ambiance for intimate romantic dinners or large groups. Dark, stylist cute Vietnamese decor. Very friendly quick service too. The menu is quant with one page of entrees & a page for appetizers & sides. Multiple pages for drinks. The food was 5/5 amazing. We loved the Shaken Beef, an absolute much try. Highly recommended. Other notable offerings: papaya salad & dumplings. Very creative delicious plant based vegan food.

Super impressed (particularly from a part-time vegan)! I am generally warry of upscale Vietnamese food, since it's seldom worth the additional cost, but Chi gets the pass. The good: -Great date spot ambiance. Dark/dim and modern decor. -Service was very knowledgeable and friendly. -Shaking beef (bo luc lac) was fantastic. First time I've tried this dish vegan, and it was spectacular in flavor, texture, and how they elevated a normally simple dish. Highly recommend this. Highly recommended and would definitely come back!

10/10 positive experience! I am VEGAN so my sister and her partner took me here when I visited. I cannot wait to return. CHI is only open in the evenings, check days and times before you plan to go. It has a nice ambiance - use it as an opportunity to dress nicely. I enjoyed learning about how the restaurant came to be, the photos down the hall, the owners dog Litt! When we arrived we giggled about how nice the place seemed yet the one who was serving us was wearing a casual oversized hoodie - soon to discover she was Chi, she owner - and she is wonderful. This is a place that might feel overbearing for some - I thoroughly enjoyed the experience. Chi helped us make choices, recommended which foods to eat first for our palate, and checked on us frequently. Three of us spent about $200 for 1 entree, 3 starters, 5 drinks, 2 desserts. It is pricey but WOW .... every dish was impeccable. I was plenty full. My nonvegan family were impressed. We got 3 appetizers, all very good. The donut thing was yummy on it's own, my family liked the seaweedy spread. The entree was a "beef" and sticky rice - all very well done. The dessert - mousse was excellent, my family devoured the floral apple pie but I cant do floral, that said the crust was perfectly flakey. The drinks were SOOO flavorful. I got a mango drink that was like WOAH on first sip, loved it. I got a hot chocolate... and then got one to go because I have never tasted something so delicious before. She nailed this. The perfect balance of chocolate, silk, thickness, the most delicious !!!!!!!

Tried this place during the Khatsalano fest and it was amazing! The line up was huge but totally worth it. I got their steamed BBQ chicken bun which was freshly made, it was soft and super flavourful. I also got their veggie tempura which was super flaky, their dip made this better but just by itself it was quiet bland. We also tried their crispy chicken bao which was pretty good! The chicken was definitely crispy and the lettuce also added a little bit of a crunch. My favourite though was their mango sticky rice pudding which was soooo refreshing for a hot summer day!! The mango was sweet and went so well with their sticky rice. The cream (or condensed milk) that they put on top was marvellous!! 5/5 for this one. Would definitely go back!

The service was very attentive and engaging! Had the truffle chili won tons ( wow fab sauce ) veggie spring rolls ( very nice not greasy) , the pamella salad ( very refreshing ) . There was a seasonal dish squash blossoms with a cashew filling, and a tomato coulis. ( wasn't my favorite) ordered a mojito more like a martini was OK ... wouldn't order again . Overall really enjoyed our meal .

4 stars dining-in, 1 (or zero) star for delivery Our first time here was for lunch on a rainy Saturday afternoon. The restaurant was nearly empty, and my husband and I were absolutely blown away by the food! But then we ordered delivery (dinner) the next day and it was abysmal. The cocktails were ok to good - they're definitely trying. The wines by the glass... we tried a bunch of their "oddball" selections, and we can't say we enjoyed any of them, but appreciated their sense of adventure. I think their regular wine offerings are decent. The veggie rolls were our favourite. Just a beautiful, unique combination of technique, flavour and textures made this a win in the restaurant. When we ordered it delivery, it was significantly less delightful, but not bad. The truffle wontons - in terms of flavour and textures, it was very very good - but you have to really love truffles as they have a heavy hand with the truffle oil. If you're on the fence about truffles, maybe skip it, or ask them to go easy on it. The potstickers/gyoza were really delicious, great textures. It wasn't as good delivery unfortunately. The bok choy is ridiculously expensive for how much you get, but wow, my husband and I both thought it was the best we've ever eaten anywhere, and we've travelled all over China and Hong Kong. Not sure if this was a fluke, but we are looking forward to trying it next time we dine in. The Brussel sprouts in the restaurant were quite good - but when we ordered it delivery, it came in an inedible SOUP of frying oil - I'd say about 3 tablespoons. Really gross. The truffle udon carbonara (dine-in) was a bit thin in terms of flavour/sauce, and strong on the truffle oil, but not bad. For delivery, I ordered the Laksa, which you would think would be easy to convert to vegan and retain its luxurious mouthfeel as coconut milk/cream is an integral component... but no. It was thin, runny, slightly sour broth with a touch of creaminess, that was shockingly bereft of vegetables. A normal Laksa typically has about 4x more vegetables than the HALF of a bok choy, a few pieces of bamboo and less than one mushroom sliced up in it. Really a disappointment. The only good thing about it was the noodles - really delicious, with a good bouncy chew. My husband ordered the vegan pho for delivery, which had an excellent broth, but similarly bereft of vegetables, although he did get a small amount of bean sprouts. Honestly, the stinginess of vegetables was quite shocking. Our experience dining in was so different from the delivery, we are going to try dining in again to see if our experience was an aberration. The prices are high, and the portions are small, so they really need to work on their consistency, and maybe be less stingy with the vegetables...!

Tried Chi because friends had an extraordinary experience. Make sure everyone arrives together. Half of our party arrived for our 6:30 reservation but had to wait until the rest of the people arrived in order to be seated. Apparently it is policy so they don't back up the kitchen. Would have liked to enjoy a cocktail while we waited but not an option on the bench at the front door. The menu was interesting and the desserts were delicious. On the whole it was a very educational evening.

Am I the first person to have an Impossible Burger in a Vancouver restaurant? That's what I've been told. When I found out that Chi had changed course on the menu direction, I was a bit hesitant to say the least. I didn't think I'd be back if my favourite Vietnamese dishes weren't on the menu with Chef Chi's modern twists. However, I saw that there was a limited run of the Impossible Burger which is a vegan meat-like burger that has never been available in Canada until a recent approval in January by Health Canada for some of the ingredients found in the Silicon Valley-designed meat replacement. I immediately made a decision to try this and hopefully have a conversation with the Chef about her decisions. I'm giving 4.5 stars because I've always been impressed with Chef's creations and realize that changes will continue to happen during these challenging times. She made it clear about her wish to make a difference in the world no matter how small. She wants to challenge the open-minded meat eaters to take a break from some ingredients once in a while and become more aware of where our food comes from. As for the burger, it was what I was waiting for all these years. The "meat" has the same bite and texture as "real" meat burgers do. But you're probably more interested in how the burger was overall and let's just say, the fresh toasted bun and the sauce (I tasted papaya) and vegan mayo (which had me fooled right from the beginning) shows that Chef Chi took this decision to heart. The vegan bacon didn't hurt either (+$2) You'll also find some new beverages including smoothies, juices and vegan lattes. The smell of fresh cut ginger wafted past my nose, so I ordered the "Glowing Juice" to indulge. I might not be coming back here for the Vietnamese recipes, but it's a serious contender for when I need a vegan meal that doesn't weigh heavily on me. Thanks for the enlightening conversation, Chef - I'll still miss the bò lúc lắc!

4.5 stars-I had heard the chef/owner was the winner of "Master Chef Vietnam" and have been interested in checking this place out. I had looked at their menu and knew a head of time that my meal would not be inexpensive; however I wanted to see if their dishes were worth the accolade. I decided to try out their dine out menu: -papaya salad (an extra $5) -tamarind prawns -sesame mochi The food was excellent and very authentic in Vietnamese flavour. The flavours were delicious in all 3 dishes. I appreciate the details such as julienning the carrots and papaya so fine (the fish sauce ratio to "vinegar" was spot on). The tamarind prawns dish totally satisfied my cravings for a quality homestyle Vietnamese dish. The tamarind sauce was made from scratch and the 6 prawns that were used were fairly sized and cooked to perfection. My only complaint was that there was not enough rice in comparison to the lovely tamarind sauce. Luckily the owner/chef noticed and offered another bowl of rice. The dessert was delicately prepared. The mochi was extremely soft and the filling of black sesame went really well together. The aesthetics is tastefully decorated. At a quick glance, you wouldn't notice it was a Vietnamese restaurant-it looks modern (which makes sense since it's called Chi Modern Vietnamese Kitchen) with Vietnamese artwork. It has a very clean and classy vibe. A big change from more of the nitty, gritty Vietnamese places that I'm used to in East Van (which are of better value and serves a different purpose-how the restaurant looks is not a priority). Without beverages being purchased, this 3 course meal cost almost $50 for one person. That's pretty pricey! However I appreciated the high quality of ingredients and authenticity. I most likely won't become a regular due to its high price point (which is the reason for minus 0.5 star); however I would highly recommend this to those who want to experience an authentic Vietnamese home style cuisine and doing so in a beautiful modern environment. Perfect for date night or a special occasion! Service was efficient and professional. I hope this business continues to do well!

Good ambience with large windows for street-side view . Everything on menu is vegetarian which is great. Alcoholic and non alcoholic drinks are available. Compared to other vegetarian Vietnam food joints , the food was not that great. Though i enjoyed my fish bowl but my partners curry bowl was having a stanching smell. Maybe we will try something else next time and have more to tell.

What I love about Dineout is trying new restaurants. We came here with friends and we were warmly greeted by the owner. Not too busy on a Tuesday night but with the fantastic food quality, it should have been! We started off with wagyu beef carpaccio. Melt in your mouth beef with a bright acidic sauce. Very tasty but just a tad over-dressed. Then came the duck rolls. WOW! I could have eaten this allll night. You just have to come and try it! For entrees, we started with the shaken beef... it shook my taste buds to want more! We also order the coconut rice and it was just fantastic! We also ordered their turmeric sablefish. SO good! The fish was so tender and flaky while being beautifully cooked. We ended off the evening with sesame mochi. I'll just have to tell you it was good because there wasn't any left for me to sample! Lol. I luckily got to have the majority of my coconut chocolate mousse which was a beautiful way to end off my 5 star meal! I'm going to come back here soon. I can't wait until Dineout!

We made a reservation for 7pm but showed up early and they seated us. Two other tables were occupied at the time. We ordered the perogies and wontons. The perogies were bland but the wontons and their sauce were excellent. For our mains we had the phish platter with noodles, nuts and sauce and the crispy truffle mushroom rice. We really enjoyed the crispy rice (recommended by Chi herself) but it was very pricey at $50! There was enough for 3-4 people to share. The flavour and crunchiness were unique and tasty. The phish was popular as every table ordered it (there were several more tables occupied by the time we got our mains). The sizzling platter of soy based protein was coupled with rice noodles, nuts and a clear salty sauce. The soy had gluten as it had flour as the binding ingredient so I only had a bite. This dish was around $30. Service was fast and friendly up to the point of getting our mains.....then it drastically went downhill. We waited 10 minutes to get the attention of a server for take out containers and a dessert menu. The containers came but we didn't get the menu until we asked again 5-10 minutes later. We wanted to try their unique desserts vs going across the street to the busy ice cream place. We ordered the Mochi and the coconut matcha ice cream Mochi dessert. We waited 15 minutes and Chi came and said "you didn't order dessert?". We said we did and had been waiting and she said it wasn't entered. I realize it got busy and they had many take out orders but several people came in, ate and left during the time we ordered and received our dessert....unacceptable. The matcha dessert was not enjoyed...odd flavours and textures. The Mochi was in a warm ginger sauce and was enjoyed. The cost for 2 to dine was around $150 with no drinks. Definitely a date night/special occasion place but service time needs to improve. Chi was on Master Chef in Vietnam and her dishes are creative and unique. She is friendly and helpful.

We have tried almost the entire menu. Everything is so delicious. We have only eaten take out but the food does travel well. My teen step son says he can't tell it's vegan. A teenage boy who loves meat also loves Chi Vegan so thank you for feeding our family yummy food while we do our best to not hurt animals and contribute less to climate change. My favorite dishes are the spicy truffle shrimp wonton, pho bo, Dan Dan parapadelle and pad thai if I was going to limit our order. Note: when ordering delivery, you can add a tip for the staff and Chi's dog!

I went here last week with my friend and we were super happy with our meal. They have an awesome selection of natural wines, too! We had the pomelo salad, veggie rolls, clay pot 'chicken' and 'beef' lettuce wraps. All yummy, but by far my favs were the pomelo salad and clay pot. Chi has a beautiful layout and feels more urban than other vegan places. I really enjoyed talking with the manager, and the service staff were warm and friendly. They change their menu all the time, so I'm excited to go back and see what else they will have. This is a great find!

There is not an option to give -1. A customer got physically assaulted and harassed by the owner. The main chef/owner acted out in rage and threw coffee on her and was going to hit her head with the glass. She was unstoppable and filled with rage and had to held back by her customer. Extremely traumatic for me who was dining. I felt totally unsafe and in shock. Reading all the reviews and being called out for bad attitude is one thing but physically abusing someone can't not be tolerated. This is against the LAW behavior and so If anyone visited the restaurant today for lunch please contact me.

We dined at Chi Modern Vietnamese tonight for dine out Vancouver 2020. I was impressed as we walked in to be seated. Beautiful, modern and contemporary establishment. We made reservations and was quickly seated. I can't believe this is my first time dining here! I must have been living under a rock. I had such a wonderful time here and enjoyed each dish tremendously. We ordered: - duck roll: my favourite appetizer. It had a rice wrap around the deep fried roll which was unique. It had a dipping sauce and wow, each bite I wanted more. - beef carpaccio: rare wagyu beef, this was very tasty but I felt the sauce was too much. - tumreric sablefish: the fish was cooked perfectly and seasoned perfectly. It paired nicely with the noodles. Must try! - shaken beef wIth coconut rice: the beef with the vegetables tasted so good together. It was seasoned perfectly. - dessert: both mochi sesame and coconut chocolate mousse was delicious I plan to come back very soon! It was so nice that Chef Chi came by multiple times to check in on us. She is so sweet and kind.

Dine out - First time there with expectations. Ambiance very good. Service undesirable and unprofessional. When I expressed with disappointment that "Green Curry is above expectation but Truffle Thick Noodles below", his reply shocked me, "No worries, everyone's preference is different." Unlike the Green Curry, the noodles had no presentation, ingredients ordinary, taste like homemade. For dessert, my friend was willing to pay $4 extra for the Dark Chocolate Mousse as highly suggested. Again, disappointment - both the glaze on top and the mousse were too sweet. The nice bitterness of dark chocolate was missing. Not worth extra $ at all. My poached pear is ok. Throughout the dinner, another staff (more senior) came to disturb us 3 times only to open and close the bowl of rice (that came with curry). At last she came to take away the rice bowl cover. We then realized that she didn't come to serve, but just prevent the nice ceramic cover from breaking! It was not an enjoyable dining experience at all.

[Incoming review from a non vegan] For my vegan best friend's birthday, I decided to bring her to Chi Vegan as per the number of good reviews I had seen on Google. I also was really intrigued by the chef's vision as the restaurant was previously non vegan but had made a switchover due to the chef becoming vegan herself. Upon entering, I was really impressed by the great vibes coming from the interior of the restaurant. As soon as we sat, it seemed like the server was nowhere to be found. The host had to go and find her for us. However as soon as she was found, we immediately ordered and the food all came out quite quickly. Thoughts on food: Veggie roll was delicious! I like the combination in texture of wrapping the rice paper around the crunchy spring roll. Sashimi was good according to my friend but I found it a bit strange especially since we eat regular sashimi a lot. I absolutely do not blame anyone for that though I mean it's vegan after all! The wontons were flavourful, I think we enjoyed the sauce far more than the wontons. The best dish of the night was by far the truffle udon. The mushroom flavour was sooo intense it was delicious! I think this dish for sure would appeal to anyone and not just vegan eaters. My second personal favourite was the tofu bowl as it featured a very tasty house garlic sauce. Lastly, the duk lettuce wrap was the most interesting 'vegan' type dish. The jackfruit gave the dish a meat-like appearance but the taste was much softer, very different from regular texture of meat. Overall, I was pleasantly impressed with the flavour and taste of the food and I will definitely return if I'm ever in the area!

Incredible! My tastebuds and soul are still smiling! Very lovely atmosphere! Staff was friendly and knowledgeable. The Chef & Owner Chi visited with the table and explained the menu. She told us stories and history about Vietnam. She has a heart of gold! She is so passionate about food! I highly recommend this restaurant. Don't wait, I'm sure it will be Michelin soon. Don't let it being Vegan scare you away. The flavours and textures were all incredible. A must try!

We went to this place for dinner. This is a good place for vegetarian people with lot many options. We ordered Duk Lettuce wrap ,Dan Dan, veggie rolls and Potstickers. Quantity is quite less for the amount. The taste of food was OK. The Duk Lettuce description shows it have many items but it seems jackfruit is the main. We asked for little spicy Dan Dan , but instead of that she gave us red chilli. They were very mild with no flavour. The Veggie Rolls were good but the quantity is very less. We paid $70 for everything and doesn't seem worth. My overall experience was OK. I hope they should improve some quality as well as quantity.

Speaking as an ACTUAL vegan, this place had some of the *worst* vegan "Asian" food I've ever had. I put Asian in quotes because it's obviously not authentic, and the target audience are mostly non-Asian yuppies. Where do I even start... so my boyfriend and I ordered the Dine Out Menu. Starting with the appies, the Cauliflower was way too salty, saucy, and completely soggy. The sauce also tasted like Chinese fermented bean curd for some reason. Bizarre. Potstickers tasted worse that the $5/bag frozen variety at T&T. Overall thoroughly unimpressed, 1/5. Next! As for the entrees... holy smokes. The lemongrass "chicken" had no lemongrass flavor at all, and furthermore, it included bird's eyes chill sliced super thin, to the point where it was hard to see them. As a result I accidentally chewed on one. Nice. My mouth burned for ten minutes after that. Chi Vegan also has the WORST rice I've ever eaten. It was undercooked and tasted like dry garbage. What kind of "Asian" place can't even cook rice properly? What a scam! I can make rice better in a saucepan! The pad thai was even worse. It was super sour for some reason. Why? No idea. Also I added prawns for $3 and legit they gave you 3-4 pieces of the fake prawns you can get at Happy Veggie World for $5 per pound. Talk about being a ripoff. You know when Thai Express is better than you that your food is ass. 0/5. Dessert was so bad we couldn't even finish all of it. The tapioca "pudding" was actually a hot dessert soup, and uh - I have no idea how they managed to make it taste so bad. T&T has better, and T&T's is just mediocre haha... The best part about the meal was the ice cream, because it was the Coconut Bliss brand (from my guess). Came out of a carton. That's literally it. 2/5. Service was real bad too. People were inattentive and didn't say anything to us after we complained about the quality of the food. Would recommend to non-Asian yuppies who are too whimpy to go to the actual authentic Asian places, cause their decor is too "outdated" or something. That was sarcasm. Also note: I saw that Chi served Impossible Burgers in the past, which are *not* vegan because it was experimented on animals. Whether or not the chef is aware of this, I don't know, but I hope as Chi "Vegan", they don't bring it back on the menu.

Ok first let me say I'm not a vegetarian or vegan I went because my partner is vegetarian. The food was surprisingly good even for a carnivore like me. I hate going to these places because I can't eat but this place had two things that I could possibly chew lol. Pleasantly surprised now I still won't eat vegetarian or vegan until forced to by my partner lol. Oh staff very friendly and accommodating

Such a dissapointing place. I've read reviews prior to going, but still went.. First of all, when we walked in, it took a really long time before the server sat us. She was behind the bar doing smth and clearly was too into whatever she was doing to look at the door. You could probably dine and dashed and she wouldn't know. I had to stomp my shoes for her to hear.... Second, she asked if we wanted to sit at the patio or in the dining area, we said dining area and she literally put me infront of the patio....what was the point in asking? Third of all, due to new covid rules and social distancing, the server put a bunch of us together in this small space rather than spreading us out. Why? Who knows. Management really needs to review this with staff. Service is slow and the servers, they're just not attentive and it shows. I wanted to order some items that was suggested by some people, but the menu was completely different so we ordered, the lobster salad roll, the neatball masala and Dan Dan noodles. The lobster roll was good, not the best nor the worst. The kale was hard to chew through, but you can't mess up on salad rolls. The neatball masala is a chi favorite, it was made with a bunch veg. It's kind of spicy and I can tell people who can't handle spice can eat this. This was ok, not bad. Served with a bed of brown rice, and some greens with pickled veg with 4 neatballs and some masala sauce. Dan Dan We had a hard time picking the pho or this and we ended up picking the Dan dan noodles. Totally delicious and I would get it again. There was ground "meat" served on a bed of spinach noodles! It said it had eggplants but maybe they cut it up in super small pieces. Also, this come with bok choy and its literally 1 bok choy.. Overall, service sucks, food was OK, and I definitely had better vegan vietnamese food. Not very authentic

This review is based on delivery which I thinks heavily affects my experience. I will 100% try this out again by dine in. We got the Potstickers (spinach wrap, mixed veggies, ginger chili soy) which were cold; however, were very tasty. The sauce it comes with is perfect and we were sad it only came with 4 (we could have eaten 10). Very good, just cold. We also got Fried Cauliflower Wings (Chili garlic gojuchang sauce, sesame, scallions). This came warm but I wasn't a fan. It was too salty for me but my friend enjoyed it. I got the Dan Dan (Ground "meat" (impossible), eggplant, bok choy, scallion, Szechuan peanut sesame sauce, spinach noodles). It was warm and the noodles were really nice. The flavours were ok and it was missing the eggplant and not enough sauce. My friend got the Impossible Banh Mi Burger (Impossible patty, carrot-daikon pickle, truffle mushroom pate, jalapeño, lettuce, cucumber, cilantro). He said it was burnt and cold. The fries were also cold but I liked them. I've heard really good things about this place so I'm happy to try them out again. I love the food options and they have so many unique dishes. I totally will check them out and eat in next time!

Omg this place was incredible. Every dish was excellent. Loved the spring rolls and the thick noodles and truffle rice but truly every dish was unique and fantastic. Would definitely come again.

I cannot begin to explain how much my husband and I loved the food here! We were shopping in the area, and sat down at another restaurant across the street thinking "this will do", when my husband yelped other places to potentially eat. Chi was right across the street, and the vegan menu looked divine! We ordered a main to share, and a couple of starters for lunch. The butternut squash dumplings were so good, but we ended up ordering a second of the spicy wonton dish (while our server did a happy dance because we liked it so much)- amazing! The staff was super friendly, and we also ended up having the black sesame mochi- also highly recommend. I ate it as slowly as possible because I just enjoyed the flavor so much! We barely talked when the food came out as we were too busy enjoying the flavor explosion. When we're back in the city we definitely want to try the dinner menu- and have already told some local friends to go try it out! I also have to compliment the restaurant's atmosphere, very lovely inside!

Admittedly I was a little disappointed when I saw this place turned Vegan, because I had been here before and the food was so good so I was sad to see the change. But I came back one evening with a vegan girlfriend of mine and I was really pleasantly surprised by how delicious everything was. We shared the vegetable rolls and I had a bowl of laksa. The vegetable rolls were AMAZING. Hard to believe they were vegan they were so good. I really enjoyed the laksa, while it was obviously quite different from a traditional laksa and there wasn't nearly the same depth of flavour, it was still very enjoyable and It was nice that it felt a lot less heavy than your traditional laksa and hopefully healthier. Dessert however was really not great. The chocolate cake was dry and the pockets were tasteless if not for the syrup. But the meal itself was good and I would come back again.

Had amazing food in this Vietnamese vegan restaurant Veggie rolls were amazing and the potstickers were good For mains thé kaboucha curry was out of this world and the pad Thai was really good Excellent service !

I came here on a date last night. In all my travels, this is probably the worst restaurant I have ever been to, but allow me to elaborate. First, Chi should find a new host, before she runs the place out of business. We had a 7:15 reservation and there were several empty tables in front, but we were not seated till around 7:45. The food - an eclectic mix of confusion. Asian? Italian? Not sure what they're trying to do. Truffle wontons were passable otherwise "fish hot pot" that smelled like feet and sausage pasta was flavorless. Service was atrocious. Three hour meal. It was like they've hired a bunch of actors to run the restaurant.

The moment I entered the restaurant, I was actually surprise to see there is only one customer in it... I asked myself, did I pick the bad restaurant? I should have google or yelp for 1 or 2 minutes. So many good rating for the ramen on the same street... Turns out that this is a very very good choice. I ordered a bowl of pho that came with sable fish. OMG, smell so good and taste so good. This grilled fish is just perfect. 5-star!

Modern Vietnamese. Elegant room, unique menu. Maybe not what you think of for Vietnamese. This is a step up. We tried a variety of dishes: salad rolls, squash curry, sablefish, beef with watercress. All fresh and veg forward. Nothing heavy or deep fried here. You walk out feeling good. Cocktails are delicious, full of fresh herbs and chiles... Chef came out to greet her guests, such a welcoming host.

The food was unique and delicious I actually prefer it than another modern Vietnamese restaurant which you need to wait in line but here you can make reservations! A bonus! The prices are a little high for Vietnamese food but they have unique dishes and very flavourful. Value 2/5 Atmosphere 4/5 Service 3/5 Quality 4.5/5 13.5/20

One of the best meals I've had in Vancouver. Chi told us stories about the food and her childhood - it made the experience so special. The restaurant is beautiful. I had the apricot haze mocktail and it was perfect.

The Chef's warm welcome really started our Chi restaurant experience on a good note. The cute decor and the nice music really makes for a good ambiance. Between the three of us, we shared the Bun Bo Nam Bo - Ginger wagyu, Pho Bo - Wagyu Pho, Cha Ca La Vong - Tumeric sablefish. All three were fantastic, we were practically licking the bowls! Would definitely go again, and I would most recommend getting the Pho, although everything was delicious! We didn't get to try the Duck rolls, so that's a reason to go again!

Service is very unprofessional. The ambience is good. Food is OK. $70 I would probably find some three-course meal of viet food elsewhere in town

Good food but quite pricey since the portions aren't very large. Brussel Sprouts (5/5) The sauce was very flavourful and the brussel sprouts were cooked well. It was a little too salty but it was still delicious. The portion was quite small, however. Shrimp Wontons (4.5/5) These were good, but the portion did not reflect the price. Could use a little more filling, but were still pretty tasty. Kabocha Croquette (4/5) I liked the mayo and the croquettes were nice and crisp. They were a tad oily and the flavour was missing a little something, but they were still solid.

Don't feel pressured to order more than you want. We came here as a group of 4 for dinner on a Saturday night and originally ordered 2 appetizers (duck spring rolls and papaya salad) and 3 mains (turmeric sablefish, shaken beef, and crab cellophane noodles). Our server insisted that wouldn't be enough for our group after I informed her that we didn't have a huge appetite and we'd order more later if need be. She took our appetizer order only and said she'd come back to take the rest of our order. So we ended up ordering a second duck spring roll appetizer and the lemongrass chicken main. We ended up really full and with leftovers. After our visit, I saw other reviews here about customers being pressured to order more food. Not a good sign! Servers should probably write down orders and repeat them back to customers. A server brought us the wrong dish (pork belly) and we told him immediately. He came back with the menu asking what we ordered. I reiterated our order and pointed to the items on the menu. Later, he came again with another incorrect dish (claypot sablefish). Weird! There was only two other tables in the restaurant at the time and the menu is pretty small so I don't know why there was so much confusion. As for the food, I'd recommend the duck spring rolls and the tumeric sablefish. Everything else was good, but not outstanding, especially for the price point. There appears to be a lot of hype over the shaken beef -- the chunks of beef were tender and flavourful, but not memorable enough nor a large enough portion to be $32. One dish I probably would not recommend is the crab cellophane noodles. There wasn't a lot of crab meat or flavour in the bed of vermicelli noodles. Overall, the meal was good, not great. I wanted to love this restaurant but my food and service experience was just...okay. Food was a solid 3 stars but the experience is a 2.5 overall due to the service, so I'll round up to a 3. Lovely ambience and space though.

The food was absolutely fantastic! YUM! Great service and good atmosphere. We'll be coming back for more. Thank You.

Had heard about the famous Vietnamese chef and her venture. Fell in love with the food and was a regular with ordering food delivery. Until today, this perhaps might be my first experience of the callousness and unprofessional behaviour of any restaurent. I am vegan for religious reasons. Today, I must have easily ordered 3, 4 dishes. On taking few bites of "veg roll" I found chicken in it. To be precise pieces of chicken bones. Immediately, I called them to inform the same where I was told its not possible and I should show them the food. After puking, and falling sick still went to the restaurent where I was met with a very condescending attitude of the manager. I was told I should have empathy towards her situation as she doesnt know what to do and how did the chicken came out of her kitchen. She then proceeded to tell me how I was over reacting and it was not such a big deal. She continued to tell me that I am an immigrant and I should sympathesize with other immigrants. No apologies, no mention of any correctional steps, any checks, no acceptance. Instead, when I told her I am feeling sick and her attitude towards the situation is unacceptable she seemed to be amused. On asking if this would have gone to a customer who was allergic she told me that I was "stretching" it. I wonder what kind of professional training this person had. She did call her chef, though they spoke in their local language but they didnt seem to be surprised or sorry. It was definitely a traumatic experience which was made worse with such an unprofessional service. By the way, not even once was there an apology. With this review, I only hope it does not happen to anyone else.

(FOOD) Honestly, I anticipated better. The entrees were good, as was the dessert. However, the main dish (the curry) was far too salty, and seemed to lack a poignant flavour other than salt. (SERVICE) Additionally, I had asked if the Passionfruit Coconut Fizzle cocktail could be made without the "fizzle" (or carbonation), and they said yes. When I received my cocktail, everyone at the table agreed that there was, in fact, carbonation. When I told the waitress about this, I just received a shrug and a "what do you expect me to do" look. (CONCLUSION) For the price, not worth it. *In response to the rather passive aggressive comment received by the business, if you were to check the website, it is clearly stated that club soda is added to the drink, and I still believe that club soda was added to the drink, since it was fizzy. Additionally, if the business is so confident in the quality of their food and dining experience offered to customers, one negative review shouldn't affect them so much.

The excellence of dinner started and ended with the duck curry. Pungent red curry was flecked with fried curry leaf, a surprising and winning addition. The duck skin was perfectly rendered and crispy. Bravo. But it was downhill from there. We were skeptical when the harried server took our order without notes, only to return 15 minutes later - they were out of the one dish that she remembered... and what was the rest of the order? The rest of the order included the lovely-sounding sablefish. We learned 90 minutes later that they didn't have it, though they later tried to charge us anyway. There were the water glasses that were never once refilled, the high chair I eventually had to retrieve from the back, the curry that was served with no warning that "you should probably order rice with that," and the dirty tables around us that were never cleared after an hour. Mind you, the restaurant was less than half full when we visited on a Tuesday night. But the two floor staff seemed panicked to find guests walking in at surprise inspection hour of 6:30pm. The papaya salad was unremarkable, lacking interest and textural complexity. The "wagyu" - whatever that means these days - cellophane noodles had umami kick but came in a giant clump. I know they're hard to cook. That's why I ordered them from professionals. I appreciated the two free beers after the front-of-house train wreck. But some major work is needed to bring operations up to minimal standards.

So, wasn't sure what to expect at this tiny little establishment. But then I saw the masterchef jacket on the wall. Ordered the 'shrimp' wonton and curry latska and it was amazing. The wonton melts in your mouth! The latska had the perfect amount of spice and the creaminess of the coconut milk was amazing. I went last week and again yesterday. I like pho but latska beats it!! A must try

Modern look of a restaurant, prime location and easy to find. Initially I thought this was related to Anh and Chi on Main Street, but it wasn't. I've been wanting to try this place, so decided to go and check it out during one raining weekend for lunch. Went for late lunch and got there at around 1.30 p.m., there wasn't anyone, greeted by this lady working in the front. I am not sure but she looks like the owner. As we were seated, I said something along the line of this is quite different from anh and chi and right away the lady (in sarcastic tone and stern) that they weren't the same and asked if i was at the right place (not merely asking, but almost didn't want to sit us down). Honestly, I am not making a big fuss here, but was quite pissed off that it was just a comment, i really thought they were related and she didn't have to be so offended. Anyway, I just told her we were at the right place and ok, now I know they are not related. She then went on to explain how and why they were different. We then sat down and ordered some stuff - since we weren't initially sure how big the portions were, we ordered 2 appetizers and 2 entree to share amongst 3 of us. She was a little 'pushy' in wanting us to order 3 entree and kept re-emphasizing how the portion was meant for individual servings. I think they should just let the customers decide that and if there is not enough food, am sure more will be ordered later. I appreciate how detailed she was, but perhaps overdoing it a little. Food wise, we ordered the following: 1. cha gio was great - must have! 2. canh ga chien was ok only - i think the chicken was a little undercook... 3. Pho ga - expected a lot better but was tasteless (when feedback was given, the lady outright said there was nothing wrong with it and has a customer who orders that every other day) 4. Cari lax ca - was good 5. Bun Bo Nam Bo - was good I will come back and want to try their dinner menu for sure, but I suggest the lady in the front to not be so 'pushy' and let customer decide what they want to order, the portion and take feedback constructively.

Definitely unforgettable experience and great argument with the owner tonight. MasterChef Chi Le mentioned this is west 4th Vancouver, and 18% service charge is very basic and normal. I am happy pay 20% for resturants when they give good services, doesn't matter if they are in Richmond or Surrey or Abbotsford. Have a better system to take order separately next time, so that customers with big group doesn't have to pay extra 45mins parking fee to wait for the bill. Never come back again.

For the hype, just meh. You're just paying to eat @ nice decor. Food more fusion than traditional which is their aim, considering the area. Chicken wasn't cooked all the way, a bit too pinkish. Salad rolls just average.

Came to eat here with my girlfriend yesterday. My diet is plant based but hers isn't. Our server Amiie was the greatest, I'll get into more detail why but she was very polite and attentive. The food was exceptional! I ordered the Dan Dan extra spicy while my gf got the Lemongrass "chicken". She was shook when she found out it wasn't real chicken (she thought this was just a Vietnamese restaurant not a vegan one). We enjoyed our dishes so much we had to order the Shaken Beef because the images from the Google reviews looked so good - it didn't disappoint! Anyway if you're reading this just come here or you'll miss out. My server went above and beyond by informing me via facebook that my I've forgotten my wallet there, I was able to get it back with nothing missing from it.

Great Ambience Great Food Good Service Went for lunch and the food was as advertised. Definitely not your average Vietnamese restaurant! The food variety was good and quality was outstanding. It comes with a price, yet I don't think it's outrageous. More than the average neighbourhood Pho resto, but the meal quality and ambience certainly reflect the price. Had the Wagyu Beef Pho (really good) and Lemongrass Vermicelli which was amazing!! The spring roll is a MUST have. I've never had it so densely wrapped before. Outstanding!! Would have been 5 stars had the server not giving the bill to me before asking if I wanted anything else or offered some dessert. I showed no indication that I was in a rush.

Great food , well balance in flavour Prawn Salad roll has crispy deep fried wonton Skin( I think ) and it give some texture and Also nutty flavour laksa has deep flavour and Can tell chef put passion in broth Also Chicken on Tom nam is Perfectly cooked Crispy outside and juicy Overall this is not ordinary Vietnam cuisine Love everything
