    Red Smoothie & Turkish Coffee
    Jenn W.

    This Mediterranean restaurant is located in downtown Edmonton on 124 street. VISH provides fresh, healthy and nutritious options made to order with heartwarming hospitality. The food is very flavorful and fresh. My favourite was the VISH Tasting Platter; I really enjoyed all the different dips, each with a unique flavour profile. The bread was warm, light and fluffy, perfect for dipping.The portions were so generous that I actually had to pack everything up. The decor is fresh with lots of green and natural lighting.

    Hummus, hummus, hummus. So many vegan and vegetarian options. We walked down 124th St. and were able to snag a nice table on the "patio".They have a couple bistro tables set out on the sidewalk. My husband ordered a wrap and I ordered hummus with mushrooms. Both were very good. The staff was very friendly and the food came out quickly. You can get any hummus plate put into a wrap.

    Have a hearty meal and feel virtuous and healthy, too. This is next level hummus from a hummus bar chain in Israel. Small restaurant on 124 serving vegetarian food. Everything is fresh and delish! We had Vish sabich (mushrooms and eggplant) and Vish Jerusalem w nuts and just about everything. Served w fluffy pita. We had the chopped salad. We were super full! Next time, we'll try their drinks! They look great. Too full for their yummy truffles. Next time!

    If you're looking for an authentic Mediterranean meal, check-out Vish anytime of the week & they are sure to deliver what you're looking for! Each dish is fresh, delicious & full of flavor! We've tried the following: Happy All Day Brunch - Moroccan sweet red pepper and spicy tomato sauce, 2 poached eggs, small chopped salad, hummus dip, tahini dip, babaganoush, hot peppers salad. Served with Challah bread BBQ Pulled Beef Combo Plate - 24 hrs. slow-cooked brisket, hummus, tahini, cucumbers, tomatoes, red onions, parsley, pickled red onion Chicken Shawarma - Hummus, tahini, cucumbers, tomatoes, red onions, parsley, pickled red onion Falafel Pita Pocket - Hummus, tahini, cucumbers, tomatoes, red onions, parsley Memory Shake - Vish tahini, banana, dates, cocoa beans, peanut butter, cashew, almond milk Believe it or not, we all liked everything that we've tried - from the Challah which was warm & soft to the tasty dipping sauces, to the succulent BBQ pulled beef combo plate, to the pita pockets (the chicken curry & the falafels-- so good!) & the high protein creamy Memory Shake! Just hands-down! Try it for yourself! You will definitely like it! For service, Barak (hope I got that spelling right) was very welcoming & accommodating to our requests. He was also tried to explain each dish to us with enthusiasm. For ambiance, the resto has a calm & cozy feel. We went during lunch time on a Friday, & it was a bit busy. Nevertheless, customers were all attended for.

    I have been fascinated with the idea of hummus being the main part of a meal, as opposed to a side dip or sandwich spread, but at VISH hummus is the star. I had delivery last week, and went for the vegan shawarma bowl and added a side of falafel balls. The vegan shawarma was well-seasoned and had a texture reminiscent of the chicken it was replacing. The falafel balls were crispy and of the green fava bean variety. I placed them in the hummus bowl, along with the vegan shawarma that dominated the bowl's centre. But what really dominated the meal was the hummus. I have never had such creamy hummus before. It had the consistency of a nut spread - and speaking of which, had a very nutty flavour. The warm pits on the side was the perfect accompaniment. While I thought the bowl was a little on the pricey side, the portion is deceptively large and I ended up with another lunch from it. Two people could easily share. I'm looking forward to trying other menu items.

    Vish recently opened their first Canadian location on 10326 124 street (a few doors down from Remedy cafe). They're an urban hummus bar serving hot hummus dishes with a variety of toppings and Yemen pita bread, so there are lots of vegetarian and vegan options that are rich in nutritional values Here's what I got to try: -vishuka hummus with poached egg, Moroccan sweet red pepper & spicy tomato sauce (loved how it was all made fresh to order and the warmth of the hummus was definitely a nice change from what I'm used to) -babaganoush, hot peppers and Turkish salad -falafel, olives and pickles -Yemen pita bread, spicy green paste and garlic & lemon juice sauce -memory shake (banana, dates, peanut butter, tahini, cashew & almond milk) -"malabi" milk pudding with a sweet rose drizzle (this was to die for ) If I'm being completely honest, I was blown away by the deliciousness of every single item as well as the service and hospitality. This business is such an amazing addition to 124th street and the Edmonton food scene. Which items are you guys most excited to try?

    BBQ Pulled Beef Sandvish

    Great cozy space and you gotta try the malabi! I loved how they have a variety of hummus and other dips too! Bread and pita were fresh, warm, and soft which complimented the Shakshuka and hummus well! The concept of sandvishes is great and the bbq pulled beef was tender.

    Finally we got to try this place and man it was so so so so soooo good!! I'm a meat head I absolutely love meat but man this was sooo good! The hummus was amazing and just everything was way to good. Everything is so fresh, sure it takes a little time to get your food but is so worth it and so so good. The sandwich was so amazing like I cannot wait to go back there and have it again.

    The appetizing, tasty & colourful spread of food that we had vishcanada! We pretty much had a taste of everything from the super smooth og hummus, classic shakshuka (sweet r red peppers & tomatoes) , hummus dip, tahini dip & falafel. Of note for sure were the pitas and gorgeous challah bread accompanying the meal. Their hummus is made fresh on the spot- pretty much the second that you order. We ended our meal with a lusciously soft & refreshing Malabi dessert (custardy topped with rose water & toasted coconuts).

    Always so tasty here. I've taken so many family and friends here. From the smoothies, combo plates, to their pita pockets. Most things are made to order, and you can really taste that. I like that they offer meat options for non-vegans too now. The atmosphere is always clean, and the staff are always courteous. We will definitely be back.

    Chicken shawarma combo
    Hana R.

    Vish has AMAZING warm and creamy hummus and pita, given that they are a hummus bar it makes sense. I ventured out and ordered the shawarma platter and did not enjoy it as much as the hummus that so I would stick to the hummus based menu items! Service was very quick and I love the warm interior.

    Shakshuka
    Lily V.

    Forget what you think you know about hummus, because Vish is a modern hummus bar that's bringing hummus to the main event - it's not just a dip here. Hot hummus dishes are made to order with a variety of toppings like chickpeas, fava beans, shakshuka, eggplant, mushrooms or vegan shawarma. Don't sleep on the house made falafel with the brightest green interior and mouth watering salads. All designed to be scooped up with pita bread baked fresh daily to wipe your plate clean. (That's where the namesake 'Vish' originates - it's a slang word meaning 'wipe', the most authentic way to enjoy hummus.) Also on the menu are plant-based shakes free from sugar, preservatives or artificial flavours and colours - and they all sound delicious! Finally, end it off with a classic Mediterranean coffee infused with cardamom (boosting digestion without boosting the nervous system), and their incredible desserts: malabi (think creamy panna cotta with a fruity sauce and toasted coconut) & decadent chocolate tahini truffles. The entire menu is vegetarian/vegan with the exception of eggs in a couple dishes, that can be removed, and dairy in the malabi - and let me tell you, it was all so filling & flavourful, we did not miss having meat at all! Lastly, the menu is super reasonably priced, you're going to leave satisfied without breaking the bank! A bright space with a view into the open kitchen, it's a unique addition to the 124 St food offerings!

    Hummus

    We have eaten at this restaurant several times! the food is delicious! The employees there are very nice and helpful, great hummus and pita!!!!! For those who missed real authentic hummus, this is the place!

The decor is very nice - brick walls and posters, and hand written beer menu, to name a few. Service was very good, professional, and friendly!! Overall good experience, and will return again in the future.

Tonight felt like a true homecoming. I arrived a little early and enjoyed walking through the neighbourhood before settling in. Madeline, our server, was warm, attentive, and absolutely lovely. Harry ordered his usual martini, and when it arrived looking so crisp and elegant, I couldn't resist ordering one myself. Madeline also brought out a purple martini with olives that looked divine and tasted even better -- one of the most beautiful cocktails I've had in Edmonton. We both chose seafood dishes, and every plate was fresh, flavourful, and perfectly done. Pip manages to be elevated yet relaxed, with a real community vibe.

The guy working there was really nice to my friend apparently though. So nothing against the staff personally or anything. Oh, and the gazebo is getting wild.

    Mexico is known for its chocolate. If you've ever visited an all-inclusive resort in Mexico you are…read morevery familiar with the vat of hot chocolate that is almost always on offer - usually at breakfast time - and the clay mugs that you drink it from. Edmonton's ch. Cafeteria, located in Grovenor, is a specialty cafe that celebrates exactly this: Mexican chocolate in all of its forms. The Edmonton Food Faves We Crave 2024 list named them as Favourite Dessert and with good reason! I visited their lively cafe on a Sunday afternoon, their corner location and bright fuchsia signage impossible to miss. The entire interior (and exterior) is a work of art with a strong focus on work by local artists, handmade items for sale, and an absolute eclectic explosion of colour. The space feels warm and inviting with cozy seating, communal tables (I met and chatted with a lovely family from South Africa while seated at ours), and greenery in every corner. It's a cafe that feels like a community hub, special and unique from the moment that you enter the building. The friendly staff enhances this atmosphere. Chocolate and coffee feel like pretty close cousins making the Mocha de Olla ($6.75 for small) feel like a natural choice. The best of both worlds! ch. Cafeteria also offers different types of chocolate in their beverages including; dark, milk, hazel, and white. This allows for a wide range of personalization to one's exact taste! Their Xocolatl is prepared spicy which is what many people think of when they imagine a Mexican hot chocolate. The Mocha de Olla is made with coffee brewed with raw sugar and cinnamon, chocolate, and milk. My favourite part of the beverage is how well the warming spices come through, truly highlighting the beautiful flavour of cinnamon mingling with the sweet notes of chocolate. Meanwhile, the slight bitterness of the chocolate is a perfect match for the coffee itself. The balance is perfection! I did find that my drink tasted a little bit watered down and I could have used even more developed and robust flavour. An overall delight nonetheless. I wanted to expand my visit from the typical cafe fare (coffee/pastry) to trying some of ch. Cafeteria's actual food. The menu is bigger than you'd expect! You'll find classics like Molletes and even a pulled pork sandwich. But the star of the menu is the Chilaquiles (Corn chips covered with red or green salsa, sour cream, melted cheese & feta cheese - $13.00). This is the dish that nachos (as we know them in North America) originated from. I got mine with Chicken (+$3.50), Avocado ($+3.00), and Extra Cheese (+$3.00). You can also choose from Mexican pulled pork or chorizo as proteins. I chose the green salsa as the flavour of this salsa is a bit more acidic, which I enjoy. These "Mexican style nachos" are pointed out to be a bit soggy - a texture that is desired in this case. Traditionally eaten as a breakfast dish, the correct texture of the chips is for them to be soft but still with a nice bite to them. ch. Cafeteria achieves this spectacularly. I was shocked by how addictive and delicious these chilaquiles were! The salsa was flavourful, bringing the aforementioned acidity to brighten up the dish. The shredded pieces of chicken were juicy and abundant. There was heaps of melty cheese. Every component, as simple as they were, came together to create one exceptional dish. I can see myself returning regularly to order this because I already can't stop thinking about it. Forget about the nachos that you know, chilaquiles is where it's at!! If there is one must try item at ch. Cafeteria I think that we would all agree on the Chido Dessert ($7.50). These famous layered chocolate mousse treats come in at least six different flavours and new ones are popping up all the time. It's like a mousse parfait and trust me, you want one. My personal favourite is the Woodstock but there is honestly no wrong choice here. The Woodstock is made with milk chocolate, caramel, and peanuts. For a chocolate and peanut butter-loving girlie like myself, this is the perfect chido. Each bite is filled with creamy decadence as you dig down into the bowl to capture every single component. The mousse is whipped to a creamy-light-airy perfection while the caramel adds a gooey sweetness. And the whole peanuts bring a great textural crunch. This dessert can only be described as velvet deliciousness. Everyone should take it upon themselves to try every single type of chido - it would be time well-spent. I also always make sure to grab a couple of ch. Cafeteria's housemade Truffles ($2.50 each) because this is the purist way to taste their chocolateria magic in action. This time I tried a Hazelnut & Chili one and a Peanut Butter one. You cannot go wrong with these! A perfect little bite that truly showcases what they do at ch. Cafeteria. I like the Hazelnut & Chili because its got some heat and really showcases the signature spice that you can find in Mexican chocolate. And the Peanut Bu

I took a large latte coffee to go, with a Mexican pulled pork sandwich, which was accompanied with a small portion of pickled onions. The onions were a delicious addition to the sandwich!! I used to drink a lot of lattes in my early adult years when I was a university student. I considerably reduced my consumption of the coffee over the years, but once in a while I drink one. The latte at ch.Cafeteria is very tasty - it was very hot and fresh. The coffee shop is cozy and comfortable. It has table for both small and big groups. There is music in the background but isn't too loud, making it easy to have a talk with your coffee drinking companion(s). The shop also sell sweet treats such as chocolates and cookies. You may also find hot and cold drinks, and a good menu as well, as you can see in the photos provided. Coffee beans can also be bought there. A good amount of art and craft works are sold at the shop, this encouraging local talents. Finally, ch.
