Maenam - Vancouver, British Columbia

Had the hot sour fish soup, vegetarian Penang curry and pad Thai. All of the dishes were delicious. The ingredients tasted fresh, flavors were well done - flavorful without being excessive. The soup had a kick, but I loved it. The curry used very interesting root vegetables and went very ... well with roti and rice. The pad Thai was also similarly excellent. Service was good, our server topped up my water regularly when I was sweating from the soup. Although I really enjoyed the meal, I found the price to be a bit high. It came to about 135 with tips for the two of us for 3 dishes. I also used to go for their lunch set regularly, but since they increased their prices.. not so much. Too bad. Read more

If you are in Vancouver, take the time to make a reservation and go to Maenam. It was amazing! The highlights were the red mist cocktail, the wagyu steak salad, and the mango sticky rice dessert. Everything else was delicious as well, but those few dishes I noted were out ... of this world! Read more

Everything I read about Maenam before arriving for vacation in vancouver absolutely undersold it. We didn’t know about the Michelin rating until we arrived and it was absolutely deserved. The tasting menu would be hundreds of euros a person if it was in Paris. Every plate, every bite of food ... was better than the last and the cocktail menu is superb. This is a must visit in Vancouver. 100/10 stars. Read more

2024 Winter Tasting Menu. I really liked how the food is served family style. A great dining experience, our waiter explained each dish and answered all our questions. The snacks were all bangers. The flavour in the hot and sour pork soup blended really well. Desserts were all fun to try. Would suggest ... getting the sablefish curry over the chicken curry, the consistency of the chicken curry was very thin. Read more

Over the moon! I have not had such a great dining experience in many years. We went for dinner and opted for the Dine out Vancouver option with wine pairings. Before which we had cocktails that were perfectly balanced. The food was sumptuous and each dish boasted of flavours, texture that were ... par excellence. Ordered takeout and as our dinner progressed, we decided to come back the next day with our daughter. When you get such an incredible culinary experience , it’s never too much! Our server Lee was fantastic, knowledgeable and very courteous. Can’t beat this - Deserving of a 2 star Michelin rating. Read more
