My daughter was in the mood for a sandwich so we decided to come to Workshop Vegetarian Cafe for…read moresome sandwiches. She got the same Croissant Breakfast sandwich that she had gotten the last time we came here together and I got the Marinara Grilled Cheese Sandwich again. It's vegan cheese inside the sandwich but still nice and gooey which is just how a grilled cheese sandwich should be. I love the tanginess of the sourdough bread that they use for this sandwich. There was cheese in my daughter's Croissant Breakfast Sandwich but it didn't look very melted. That's the one thing I could be improved upon. Otherwise, her Croissant Breakfast Sandwich was looking really really good, and I think I'm gonna have to try ordering it for myself next time. Yup, even with unmelted cheese, the sandwich was still calling out to me. Not sure why it didn't call out to me the last time my daughter had it. Hmmm...maybe it did and I just forgot! A sigh that we need to come to this place more often! They had a few bins with stuff on sale. There was a $5 bin and a $10 bin. I bought a couple packs of Garlic Shio Ramen noodles from the $5 bin and a pack of Umami Garlic broth from the $10 bin. Probably not gonna open them up for awhile though. The weather is way too hot these days to be cooking up Ramen noodles in the kitchen!

We were a group of 10 and the place is a bit small, but they were still able to fit us. There's not a lot of people because this is still a hidden gem, but I can imagine it will get busier once it blows up. The place is also a bit out of the way, but very worth it to come just for the food. (Which is s-p-i-c-y!) Very glad we came here. Highly recommend!

This was hands down, one of the best meals I've had in a very long time. For appetizers, we tried…read morethe truffle dumplings, which are served in a tangy broth. They were delicious and it was clear so much love was put into their presentation. We also tried Uncle Hing's fried mushroom "wings" and they were absolutely delicious. Perfectly crispy in a spicy, sweet sauce. A true stand out dish that I haven't seen other restaurants master. We shared the eggplant main with rice which was quite good. Eggplant can get a little soggy but they did a great job on working in fried eggplant on a tangy sauce based with loads of fresh cilantro and diced tomato on top. I have driven by this place for ages and always wondered what it was like, turns out I was passing by an absolute gem of an establishment. We will be back. Ten out ten.

Vegan and Gluten free desserts available and I was impressed that they started an Indian chaat house menu over 6 months ago. My friend said vegan chicken burger here was amazing so I was enticed to try and yes, her review was solid~! Their chicken and crepe won me over and I really loved the fresh strawberries crepe when I dined in. Service here was friendly and the ambiance is simple and clean with a couple free board/table games to play. It's a decent size with about 3 tables for 4 with couple tables for 2 plus window bar seats. I would definitely return and hope to try more of their vegan and gluten free dessert next time paired with their Indian chaat house items plus a nice cup of Indian masala tea.

The Honey Mustard Chicken Bowl was not only disappointing but confusing…read more It should've been called the Red Cabbage Chicken Bowl. Why? Well, because there wasn't much of a honey mustard taste which is one reason I selected it, but also most of the bowl was red cabbage. Making up for the lack of other ingredients mainly yams. (See pic.) This is to all the establishments in the culinary hospitality industry...... "If you substitute a cheap ingredient for a premium ingredient thinking you save money at the customer's expense. We Know." .....and what happens? You. Lose. Business. Service?

Returned for dim sum with a group of 6. Many of the dim sum dishes are portioned in 3's so this was…read morethe perfect group size. I was the only veg-inclined person in the group and didn't realize some of the others didn't know the place was fully vegetarian before arriving, but it didn't seem like anyone was disappointed with the vegetarian offerings. We tried a large variety of dishes, and I won't list all of them because I don't think I'd even remember everything. My favourites were the walnut custard buns, the pea tips rice sheet roll, and the new tapioca pudding (I'd never tried this kind of baked tapioca pudding before and I loved the texture). They also brought out fresh baked barbeque buns which were nice and soft. Others really liked the vegetarian chicken nuggets and black truffle mushroom dumplings, so I think it's safe to say everything is pretty good. I felt like I ate a lot, but at the end, after they split the bill 6 ways, everyone only paid $22 (before tip). So if you go with a big group you can try lots of things at a pretty good price. Service was pretty good. They did try to push some dishes on us, but I think they were just trying to be helpful with most of us not being familiar with how to order for dim sum, and their patience was appreciated.

Po Kong is entirely vegetarian. They are across from Sun Bo Kong Vegetarian (dim sum)…read more I ordered a single dish, because the price says it's a big portion. Pan-fried sticky rice is something I always wanted to try. The pan-fried sticky rice is less starchy than the steamed. Keeping its shape and not so sticky. It has pieces of red gluten (imitating Chinese sausage) and pickled vegetables. Here and there are small chunks of sugar, which were rather unpleasant. It's a dish meant to be shared. I took the leftover to go. My concern about vegetarian restaurants is the quantity of deep-fried dishes, soy and gluten content in their menu.

I have had the opportunity to enjoy it on several occasions and it has always been fresh and delicious.

The lighting is dim and romantic. Definitely not conducive to sexy food photos…read more The waitstaff was speedy and friendly. The acorn has been on my list for YEARS! So to say I was extremely excited is an understatement. We ordered the Sourdough (with House Cultured Butter, Vancouver Island Sea Salt) Shiitake (with Soy Braised Squash, Kelp, Ginger,Lemongrass) Cabbage with Brown Butter and Pomme Dauphinois Harvest which was house made ravioli stuffed with chicken of the woods. For dessert the Plum with Fig Leaf, Miso Honeycomb and Thai Basil Sourdough was good. No arguments there. The shiitake was fine, palatable. The cabbage and potato were very bland and made me question why the Acorn is so hyped. It was so bland i didn't finish it. Keep in mind SERVING SIZES ARE TINY. The ravioli were practically inedible the chicken of the woods was beyond overly salted and the pasta wasn't cooked. We joked that al dente was at least touching water. This pasta has never heard of water. Easily one of if not THE WORST PASTA I've ever had at a restaurant in the past few years. Thank goodness the plum dessert was yummy. Very good. But truly I don't understand why people rave about The Acorn. I love food. Im a vegetarian but it's hard to comprehend why it's so hyped. Maybe there was a new cook? Maybe it was an off night? Crossed off my Vancouver bucket list. It took me a while to write this review because I frankly was in shock the contrast between the actual food vs the lore it has around town. The highlights were a basic sourdough and a well balanced dessert. That just feels so wrong.
