Hanoi Old Quarter - Vancouver, British Columbia

Absolutely delicious Vietnamese food! There wasn't a single dish we weren't totally pleased with. From the pho, to the spring rolls, to the rice rolls, to the jellyfish, to the bùn, to the coffee. Even items I normally won't touch, like blood sausage, were really tasty here. Service was super nice. The ... kitchen is small so there is a bit of a wait for some of the order but we hardly noticed because they had such good timing with dishes. Really fresh taste with what seem like good quality ingredients. And I have to mention the pickled garlic available on the table was an awesome addition! Never had that anywhere else and it really made things pop even more. Personally, the crab and pork spring rolls were the star of the meal. I'm not usually a huge spring roll person, but dang were they GOOD. Portions were very generous and easily filled up 4 adults. Normally, we can't finish everything but here? Not a doggie-bag in sight. We all inhaled the food. And excellent egg coffee! I'm so glad to find a place with it :) Don't let the modest exterior fool you, this is some of the best Vietnamese in Vancouver. Why queue up at the place down the block when this place exists?!

It was my first time trying northern Vietnamese style food. The pho is very different from what I'm used to, and could probably be considered an entirely separate dish instead of a variant. It's apparently very authentic though and the restaurant was packed - it isn't a large dining area. I ... don't think I'd come back because the cuisine isn't my cup of tea, but I'm glad I tried it at least once. They don't accept credit here, debit or cash only. I found the prices higher than average compared to other Vietnamese restaurants in the area. Read more

Heard many good things about this restaurant, especially for the bun cha. One friend ordered the bun cha, and I shared the lemon grass chicken and rice with another friend. I liked the presentation of the bun cha on a banana leaf servee with vermicelli, a fried spring roll, and some ... lettuce. The pork patties were tender and the sauce was the perfect balance of fish sauce and vinegar. I tried a piece of the spring roll and it was also really good. The chicken and rice was also good - the meat was well seasoned and cooked and its nice that they include two pieces of chicken. With an extra bowl of rice is a good sharing size. For $21, I wish a fried spring roll was included. The service was friendly, fast, and food was flavourful. However, the prices are more expensive compared to some of the neighboring Vietnamese restaurants on Victoria Drive. Was also a bit dissapointed they did not have many pho options on the menu, but I guess they want to make sure their specialties are offered which isn't a bad thing! Read more

Super tasty crab meat spring roll! Must try! Went twice in a week!! The chicken wings are crispy too! Love the coconut shake, not too sweet. Service is great! Very attentive and friendly!

Cute establishment with friendly staff! The rice rolls has a good chew to them and the spring rolls were nice and crispy. The meatballs were a little cold compared to the other items though due to them sitting in the dipping sauce. The egg coffee was really tasty but a little sweet ... for my taste. Chicken wings were solid! I would order these again. The noodle soup tasted really clean and comforting which was perfect on a snowy day 😌. Heads up though - they accept debit and cash only in store!
