Great dinning experience

Sight improvement in ambiance would upgrade it to 5 star. Very warm courteous service makes you feel at home.

Nice place with some fun options!

Visited for dinner on a Saturday night. Wasn't busy at all. Food came out quickly.

Got the vegan crispy duck with rollable pancakes! I never had duck and am okay with that, lol. It was overall tasty. Also got the papaya seagrapes salad which was flavorful and included some sweat shredded soy stops which were yum! Two iced teas rounded out the meal.

Great food

I had the Dan Dan Noodles and Brussel Sprouts this time. Both very tasty. Dishes here are a good size and the noodle dishes include a good amount of vegetables and not just noodles. Highly recommended!

Pros: Delicious, Many choices, Good portions

Unique + Traditional Dishes

2025 Update : HESTIA is really noticeably an art in flavor and presentation.


2024*****
Will be returning right away. Vietnamese food with fine plating, friendly staff in a great part of town. They are doing 20% during grand opening so don’t delay! The only non-Ⓥ item is one of the deserts. Everything else is Ⓥ.

Exceptional meal!

Even though this place bills itself as vegetarian, it's actually vegan! We started with the Crispy Summer Rolls, which were very good, but since there were only two of us, you'd think they'd either cut it in half or quarters. Next was the Wokfried Brussel(s) Sprouts. Again, VERY good, and they were fresh! Our main was the Vegan Crispy Duck w/Pancakes. I don't know what this duck is, but it was absolutely delicious! The pancakes were paper thin, and we could've used a few more, but I would absolutely, without a doubt, order this again and recommend it to whoever decides to try this place out. It's a standout dish. My mouth starts watering just thinking about the flavors and textures.

Staff are WONDERFUL, as well! Their warm and welcoming demeanor made us feel instantly comfortable and they were helpful with answering all the question we had.

Pros: Excellent food, Outstanding staff

Quick and delicious takeaway

We just very quickly wanted to grab something before heading to the airport. We ordered the truffle fries and the lemongrass tofu to takeaway. Both were delicious!

Pros: Quick service, Great options, Good value

Absolutely delicious!

We got the Dan Dan noodles and vegan crispy duck with pancakes—they were both absolutely delicious!! I loved the hot tea and the atmosphere was really nice and calm. The service was also excellent. I thought this was one of the best vegan places I’ve been to and will come back when I’m in Vancouver!

Lovely vegan Vietnamese eats

Very friendly staff and great food. Appetizers are consistently good. The papaya salad is highly recommended. Some of the noodle dishes are better than others, though portion sizes are great. You'll leave happy.

Good food

Really good, roasted Brussels sprouts with glazed onion. Nice salad rolls. Iced Vietnamese coffee. I must return to try more of the menu - meals going to neighbouring tables looked great. Fabulous to find an all-vegan Vietnamese restaurant.

Pros: all vegan

Really flavorful good and great service

We’ve been here 2x and the Laksa curry is to DIE for. Our main problem is that we want to repeat order that over trying something we haven’t had before but I’m sure the other dishes are just as good. We’ve also had the saffron curry which is really good. The service staff are very cute and go out of their way to make you feel comfortable.

Very welcome find

I stay at the Sheraton Wall Centre all the time and so I’m super happy to find a vegetarian Vietnamese restaurant with lots of vegan options. It’s a short walk from the Wall Centre and the food is really good.

Pros: Lots of vegan options , Delicious , Location

Great flavors!

We ordered the papaya salad, smoked eggplant, duck wraps, and a coconut coffee. They were all delicious. I especially loved the salad and eggplant. Both the eggplant and the wraps said they were for two people but I feel as if the portions could have been a bit larger. The salad, however, was a great size.

Pros: Flavors , Atmosphere , Vegan Vietnamese coffee!

Cons: Portions were a little small, Price was a little high

Lots to love

Overall, this place is great,
But my review should be 4.5 stars. The Papaya Sea Grapes Salad was the best papaya salad I’ve ever had. The Carmelized Tofu Claypot did something with tofu that I’ve never experienced before. It was layered, and spongy, and sweet, and delicious.

We also ordered the Curry Laksa and Bun Bo Hue. While
They were both good (not great) but neither were spicy as promised. The noodles in those dishes were soft and fantastic.

Vietnamese fare

A wee café with Vietnamese vegan food. We can hear the server and cook speaking Vietnamese to each other (this place is legit)… I believe they’re all vegan despite being listed as vegetarian. I didn’t see any eggs or dairy on the menu). Ordered hainanese chicken rice (I’ve never had rice like this, and it was so good… I believe they put lemongrass in it.) Lots of other Asian people eating here that night. Service was quick and friendly, and they asked if there was any allergens we had, appear to be very conscientious.

Pros: Rice, Popular with other Asian diners, Reasonably priced

Fantastic!

Lots of wonderful options, some familiar, some far less so, and we enjoyed what we had: sea grapes papaya salad (very few sea grapes, but a tasty salad and the soy jerky was a more interesting ingredient than the sea grapes anyway), one of the phos and the vegan fish noodle bowl (rocked my world!). And a side of pak choi with garlic (super tasty).

And the staff was fantastically friendly.

Definitely on our favourites list for Vancouver.

Delicious

This restaurant is fully vegan, the food is packed full of flavour and there is such a great, varied choice! I had the caramelised tofu and they do tofu so we'll, some of the most flavour packed I've ever had, can't wait to try more! Plus the staff are so sweet and friendly.

Pros: Fully vegan, Delicious options

Flavour and veggies

I like most of the items on the menu. However, one appetizer was a bit dry/bland and a few mains were too salty for me. But in general it’s really good!

The service is pretty fast (even on a busy evening) and the menu is pretty diverse so I would definitely recommend checking it out.

Amazing flavours!

The whole menu is vegan except deserts. Loved the ginger tofu dish, Dan Dan noodles and king mushroom dish. Nice staff, lots of tables, great location.
