One of the best Thai restaurants in Vancouver. The panang curry was with medium spice was delicious. The pad see ew was the star for me. The noodles was different from others that I've had. Great texture and flavour. And the Thai tea was super tasty. Pro tip: it was very busy here. Make sure to get a reservation! read more

If I could, I would give this place a 3.5. Now to decide whether to round up or round down. I decided to round up. I have been eating Thai food for the last 30 years in the U.S. and in the most recent 20+ years in the Seattle area which I think has some pretty good Thai food around. This place was small and my daughter thought that it was over hyped. Overall, I did enjoy the food. We ordered papaya salad without fried shrimp, sliced beef (vs. cubed beef) pad see ew, tom yum soup and mango sticky rice for dessert. The papaya salad was very good with lots of veggies and a nice dressing. I think they could julienne the carrots and papaya thinner but it was fine. We really enjoyed the pad see ewe and definitely recommend the sliced beef. It was interesting that the noodles were clear versus the typical milky rice noodles. It could've used more veggies in the dish (typically Chinese broccoli). Tom yum soup was perfectly flavored with that sweet and sour marriage. Our eyes really enjoyed the mango sticky rice with its outstanding presentation: a crispy deep fried intricate "star" on top of green rice surrounded by mango pieces but the least favorite dish to our mouths as it just didn't have a whole lot of flavor. The cream was on the side but it should have been sweeter since the mangoes weren't. I would be willing to try it again but my daughter said she would like to try other places. I didn't think it was "knock your socks off" amazing Thai food but it wasn't bad either. Above average than most for sure. Street parking was not a problem for us. We also did manage to get the last reservation for a table of 2 the day before. There were no lines but seemed like everyone had a reservation. They seemed to have a lot of To Go orders! read more

A favourite of mine. An elevated Thai restaurant dishing out unique street foods, and traditional favourites. While I agree the food is prepared well and very tasty, I find it bit on the pricier side for the portion size, compared to similar elevated restaurants like Lunch Lady or Pok Pok (USA). Pad see ew, traditional stir fried rice noodles, good for them to use wide noodles and very good wok hay, however, their fried tofu, feels clumsy. They could cut them into smaller cubes for easier eating. The grilled pork jowl was tender, plump, and with good dressing. While the dry mixed spicy pork noodles were pleasant but could be a bit more exciting? One thing they do very well are all the shrimps. Consistently plump and well cooked, especially with the pad sew. We went adventurous but tried their Thai version of beef pho. Quite unique in taste, herbal, kind of sweet, spicy, but in kind of a coagulated broth. Perhaps explanation on the appearance will help the worried look on our faces. read more

Been saving Zab Bite to try out for quite some time! And glad I finally made it out to the neighbourhood for a bit! I can confirm it is one of the best Thai restaurants I had as of yet. There is so much flavour in every bite! The pad sew ew was a favourite of mine. The thick clear chewy noodles were so fun and delicious to eat and the dish had so much wok hay! Curry was aromatic and fantastic with plenty of rice. The restaurant was packed and fully reserved even on a Thursday night! Would absolutely recommend this place and make sure you make a reso before hand! read more

Bomb food, full of flavour, spicy too! You can pick your spice level. As a south East Asian, everything on the menu fits my palette so well. They are not skimping on garlic or onions, super umami. We got the pad see ew which is a must, wide chewy noodles, lots of fried egg and chicken. I would try the spiciest level next time. The coconut soup was full of mushrooms, 4 large shrimps and so hearty! The small was perfect as an appetizer for 2. And for $12, it's really good value. Most other Thai spots would charge $12 just to add shrimp. I would come back and try more on the menu next time. It's a smaller restaurant, staff is friendly. read more

I came here to celebrate my best friend's bday as she was craving good Thai food. Despite the mixed reviews online, most of what I heard from friends was positive. When we arrived on Friday night, there were already a few parties waiting outside. Since we made a reso, we were sat promptly and shortly after given menus and water. Since my best friend is vegan, we ordered separate dishes for ourselves and shared the deep fried tofu appetizer. There was nothing too special to say about the tofu but I found the peanut sweet and sour sauce very delicious and even kept the remnants to put onto my main dish. The cocktail was also a pleasant surprise. It was very pretty and everything one would wish for in a sweet and fruity cocktail. Mains arrived briefly after and although I did not know what to expect, I was pleased with the aroma and flavour of the stir fried thai holy basil with beef slices. The server recommended sliced beef if you prefer tender pieces as opposed to marinated beef chunks (in cubes and maybe harder to chew). There was definitely a kick of spice in it which is expected for Thai food but needless to say, I did not feel fantastic the next day (I'm not the best with spice...). My friend thoroughly enjoyed her green curry with tofu and mentioned the curry flavour stuck out to her a bit more than other places. However, she also felt the wrath of spice and was not very well the next day. She also ordered a side of roti that I sampled - but found way too greasy for my liking. Overall, this was just a small taste of the menu and I would like to return to give other menu items a try before giving a real verdict. Prices were a bit on the steeper side but I'm not sure if that's just inflation hitting everyone where it hurts most... In addition, a random observation but my best friend mentioned she felt the tables were very high relative to her height...Not sure if anyone else may feel that way but it may be something to look out for (especially if coming in with children etc.). read more

The Salmon Sashimi Zab with yum sauce never disappoints. I absolutely love this dish. The sauce has lime juice, onion, and fresh herbs. The Crying Tiger was perfectly seasoned. It was enjoyable on it's own, but I really liked the sauce that came with it. It was slightly acidic with a hint of spice. The Stir-Fry Thai Holy Basil served with jasmine rice and a fried egg Chicken  was not at all what I expected. When I ordered it, I assumed it would be like a fried rice dish, but it was rice with an egg on top and chicken on the side. It was tasty, I especially liked the basil flavor, but overall it was a very simple dish. The crispy pork toast, is quite unique. The toast is slightly sweet and it was a perfect amount of pork filling to toast. I liked the vinegar sauce that came with it. The Roti was nice and flaky, but it felt very basic and I was disappointed that it didnt come with any dip. Their customer service is great. Staff are friendly and welcoming. I would recommend making reservations ahead of time as there is limited seating. There is parking in the back, but also there's plenty of street parking. read more

Absolutely loved B&D Authentic Vietnamese Chinese! We tried the Bún Bò Huế, lemongrass chicken, and the coconut rice cake, and everything was so flavorful and comforting. The lemongrass chicken was honestly the best I've ever had--perfectly seasoned and cooked so well. The Bún Bò Huế was rich and satisfying, and the coconut rice cake was such a great finish. I'll definitely be coming back, especially for that coconut rice cake. Highly recommend! read more

Was very exited to walk by and get a table for 2 before the rush of dinner hour. Benn hearing about Zab Bite - Thai E-Sarn Cuisine for over a year now. Our servers were attentive and pleasant and help us with the menu and made recommendations. We had the following: Shredded green papaya salad with fermented fish sauce and for an additional $5 we added the crispy pork skins Crispy Grilled Pork with Jaew dipping sauce Dry Mixed Tom-Yum with egg noodles Our favourites were the papaya salad (refreshing and delicious with the big punch of fish sauce and the crispy pork skin was cooked perfectly) and crispy grilled pork (the top was not that crispy, but the pork was tender and the sauce made the difference - addicting!). The dry mixed noodle was a disappointment as it was very salty and for $22 the portion was small. We did let our server know when asked how our meal was, but we ate enough of the noodles to not make a big deal to return to the kitchen. We appreciate our server didn't hesitate to return the dish to the kitchen. We also enjoyed our bright pink non-alcoholic drink as recommended by our server. Overall, I enjoyed majority of my meal but for the price and portion size, it's not a place I will be visiting more often to keep my wallet fat! I think for drinks and quick share appetizer (order from the main menu and not the starters to get a bigger portion) for my peeps. I did enjoy the flavours of north eastern Thailand and feel fortunate Vancouver has this depth of cuisine. Meter parking on Fraser Street but free side street parking read more

Zab Bite - Pad see ew, pad kra pao, assorted platter - Thai Near Me - Vancouver, British Columbia

Having seen Zab Bite being mentioned in the Michelin Guide and an honourable mention in the 2024 Vancouver Magazine Restaurant awards, this place was on my to try list for awhile, and finally did try it recently. We made reservations well in advance. We arrived on time, and were seated immediately. Nothing to outstanding about the space - rather plain, not very big. We ended up trying the following: - Tum Pla Ra - Good. Easy. - Crispy Pork Cake - Good. Another simple, easy dish. - Pad See Ew - Good. Lots of flavour. The noodles were quite "broken" though. - Jaew Chicken - Good. Nicely prepared. - Tom Kha - Very good. Probably my favourite dish of the night. Service was standard. Nothing special. Overall, a good visit. It was good food, with good portion sizes. Not the best quality, but certainly good and easier on my wallet than most Thai restaurants. I would return. read more

We came on a Saturday for lunch. Service was fast but not super attentive. Food came out fast as well. Tum Thai ($15) was not super crunchy. I liked the strong garlic flavour and the sweet sauce Pad see ew ($22) with chicken. The noodles were nice and chewy. Lots of wok hey (fire flavour) which we really enjoyed. Flavour was good but we found it a bit too salty for our liking. Stir fry thai holy basil ($19) with minced pork. This dish was also a bit too salty for me. It was also lacking thai basil flavour. Wouldn't get this again Panang curry ($19) star of the show is the penang curry. It was creamy luscious. Had a punch of flavour. The lime leaves also gave it a bit of sourness. Would order this again. Crispy roti ($3) we ordered 2 servings. This goes so well with the panang curry as well as rice. It was crispy oily and really sinful. I would say it's a bit too oily but that comes with anything that is fried. Would definitely order this again Overall I would recommend you get the crispy roti and the panang curry for takeout. Make rice yourself at home to go with it. read more

Very clean and quaint store on a corner of fraser street opposite to Slo! This might be the best Thai place I've had so far It specializes in northern thai food (papaya salads) but i'm not a big fan of papaya so I didn't get any. Regardless all the other food I got are 10/10, servers were very attentive and kept refilling our water haha and they serve food super fast as well. The pad thai and dry noodles were perfectly seasoned and big portions, for spicy dishes you'll be able to pick your spice level. The dry noodles come with peanut crumbs, lime slice and a sauce on the side it's more on the refreshing side definitely a good dish in the summer. For drinks I'd recommend the thai milk tea and get the mango sticky rice for dessert! Their crying tiger beef is to die for and honestly anything with the crying tiger sauce is heavenly would def recommend! read more

After hearing a lot of positive reviews about this place, I finally made a reservation for Zab Bite (I definitely recommend a making a reservation as they are quite busy/popular). My friends and I ordered the crying tiger (while the sauce was good, the meat didn't feel too extraordinary for its price); pad thai (this was really good, but I have yet to have bad pad thai); khao soi (this was difficult to share as it was served it a single chicken drumstick though the flavour was not bad). Overall I think the dishes we picked weren't the most ideal for sharing between friends, but the flavor and quality of the food was notable. read more

Honestly not sure how this place is Michelin recommended. I think they spent too much time on the trendy decor and fancy drink menu vs. the food. Thai Lemon Tea (not pictured): Our favourite version of this is from Bob Likes Thai Food, and its made with fresh citrus, this tasted artificial - like Thai Nestea Pad see yew: Probably the best dish, but how can you really mess this up? Portion was tiny Pork toast: Pork is negligible, just greasy hard toast with pickled vinegar. The pickled veggies were the best part of this dish Tom kha: A bit too creamy and salty, but taste-wise was not the best, but not terrible. My issue was the amount of aromatic ingredients left in the soup in a SMALL SIZE for $12. of the items were inedible - of course all necessary ingredients for the flavour, but why were they left in the final product? Penang curry: It was okay, not as aromatic as Sawasdee They sat us next to the bar and could not see us even when we raised our hand so it was also impossible to flag down a waitress despite the restaurant being almost empty. For price/portion/quality - would not come back. read more

My friends and I stopped by for a late post dodgeball session meal here. I've never had Thai food before aside from Thai Express. I didn't really know what to expect. There are lots of different items on the menu, and honestly a lot of them sounded pretty good to me. The Tum Pla Ra and Pad See Ew were the main things I ate with my group. I was very impressed because the flavours were a lot more intense than I had expected it. I had eaten beforehand but the food was good enough that I could have ate a whole plate on my own. Fantastic experience here. The service was very good as our server was happy to chat and give his suggestions. I would very much want to come back and try more of the menu in future. read more

Everyone in my party really enjoyed dinner at this place. I would skip the crying tiger dish. It was the only dish we ordered that we were disappointed in and felt like it wasn't worth the price.

Came here the other night, despite lots of reviews saying its best to make a reservation my mom and I tried walking in and they were able to give us a table but with a one hour time limit which felt a bit tight in the beginning but all of the food came out so fast that it ended up not being a problem at all!! To start the server said we should try the deep fried tofu with peanut sauce, which I did not care for at all. I feel like there are so many more flavourful dishes to get, so I would skip this one in the future. We also got the thai milk tea to drink which I love sooo much! For our mains we shared the pad see ew and the panang curry with jasmine rice and these dishes were sooo delicious! We also had so many leftovers so it was really worth the price! I would definitely come here again with a bigger group so we can order a lot more dishes to share because all of their food looked so good. read more

Loved LOVED Zab Bite today! Fantastic Thai spot that we've been wanting to go to for the past year and finally we made a lunch reso on my day off. It was busy but not packed, the ambience is really laid back which I love. The staff was on it too and the food came out quite quickly and everything was piping hot! We ordered the following from best to not as best but still great and no exaggeration everything was AMAZING and so so flavourful! Addictive! Padang curry (red curry) spicy - so incredible flavourful with perfectly cooked eggplant and prawn. Get the Roti for dipping!! Drunken Noodles with Tofu - I could eat plates of this! The tofu was crispy and soft on the inside and the noodles were chewy and spicy! Salmon sashimi - had flavours like a salmon ceviche, nice and refreshing. Crispy pork - so so tender my god it was good and the dipping sauce was great too. Shrimp wrap - yummy crunch fried bites with a sweet chili dipper. We all enjoyed our lunch and for four people it came to $140 total and we had beers too, which I thought was really reasonable for all four of us! Go here if you want great Thai food!! read more

Zab Bite is located on the corner of Fraser and E26th; street parking is easy to find. The restaurant was not too busy on a weekday lunch hour so we were promptly seated. For weekday lunch, they had a small lunch menu that had some of the same items as their regular menu but with a $1+ or so discount. Check your bill at the end though because they charged us the regular price instead of the lunch menu price; they fixed it after we notified them. Serving up Thai cuisine, the plating is very aesthetic and Instagrammable; and the pricing reflects that. They've got a lot of appetizer and dishes that I haven't had in other Thai restaurants before; a lot of stir fries and grilled dishes. I normally get curries at Thai restaurants but Zab Bite does not have many curry options on their menu, so I ended up getting the Pad Thai on their lunch menu - it was not very good, on the dry side and flavor-wise I've had better. We also tried the Crispy Pork Toast which was interesting and pretty dense, best to share with 2-3 others. And the Crispy Grilled Pork was probably the best dish of the ones we tried - the fat to lean ratio gives it a nice bouncy texture and this one is worth getting. I wouldn't come out of my way, but if in the neighborhood and wanted some appies, they would be a decent choice. read more

I had high hopes from Zab Bite but unfortunately Zab Bite didn't meet expectations. The appetizers -- both the spring rolls and the fried tofu -- looked appealing but lacked flavor. And the dipping sauces didn't do much to better the taste either. The stir-fried noodles were well prepared, made with wide rice noodles and decent overall, but the dish did leave a greasy aftertaste. On a positive note, the presentation was nice and the service was quick. read more

A new place on Fraser Street and 26th, in Vancouver. It used to be Pho Cilantro, then was Saigon and now it's Zab Bite. The staff are nice, friendly and efficient. The food comes out pretty quickly so make sure you order accordingly as you may not have enough room. You can always order more as you ewt. It is basic inside with a couple of booths and tables. The lighting is good which is wicker style cylinder shaped. The shrimp and the crying tiger ( grilled beef ) were really good. I'd definitely order those again. The spring rolls were good too but not that spectacular. The grilled pork was flavorful with a hint of spice. Between the beef and pork, I would get the beef, unless you don't eat beef then go for the pork. read more

Stopped in at Zab Bite in Vancouver and was really happy with the food. We ordered the Thai appetizer basket, everything was hot and crispy, especially the prawn rolls and the sesame fish cakes. The grilled beef was tender, cooked medium, and the spicy dipping sauce had a nice kick without being too salty. Service was friendly and pretty quick even though the place was busy. Casual, clean space, good for lunch with friends. I'd come back. read more

Zab Bite - Grilled beef, Zab Bite style, served medium with spicy jaew dipping sauce, cucumber and fresh herbs. - Thai Near Me - Vancouver, British Columbia

Zab Bite has been on my wish list for a while, particularly since the place is recommended to me by Thai friends. We finally went there a few weeks ago. It's definitely better than some of the places I tried, but I was expecting the dishes to be spicier tbh. Tum Corn ($18) 6/10 A light and refreshing corn and carrot salad, tangy with nice crunch from the peanut. Has some dried shrimp inside. Was an okay appetizer. Yum Crispy Grilled Pork ($21) 7.5/10 Grilled pork served with dipping sauce. I really enjoyed the sweet-sour sauce (cilantro, lime, thai chili). Pork itself was very juicy and not smelly. Yum Salmon Zab ($28) 7/10 Thai version of salmon sashimi, where the fish is marinated with the same sauce as the grilled pork one. This was also pretty good though salmon texture was a bit too mushy. Tom Zab ($25) 7/10 Pork spicy sour soup served with rice powder and mushroom. Don't get me wrong, the soup was good, I wish it was actually spicy though. Our friend (who was from Thailand) specifically asked for Thai spicy, but I felt like they gave us one tailored for the local taste? Pad See Ew Beef ($25) 7/10 Stir fry wide noodle with beef and brocolli with soy-oyster based sauce. Nice wok hey and plenty of protein for the portion. reminds me of kwe tiau (in a good way) with slightly more sticky-translucent noodle. Mango Sticky Rice ($13) 5/10 I was expecting traditional mango sticky rice (which I prefer, sometimes simple is best) but they tried to be fancy with the pandan infused rice and crispy crackers. It's not bad per se, but I don't think the pandan works with the mango. read more

Vibes are vibin' here! Super busy on a Sat night, a bit too loud for my liking as you could barely hear the person across from you and everyone had to raise their voice to be heard. 1.5hr dining limit for us but as it died down they didn't enforce it. We shared the grilled pork, tom zab, and dry mix thick noodle. Would definitely recommend choosing a thinner noodle for the dry mix as the thick noodle was a wide glass noodle and so bit of a mushy texture in contrast with the rest of the ingredients. Tom zab soup wasn't spicy at all (we asked for mild) and was very flavourful and aromatic with the kaffir lime leaves. As someone who can't handle spice, I loved this soup! Delicious meaty mushrooms too. Grilled pork was divine. I could eat dishes of this for days, along with the dipping sauce! Service was excellent, someone constantly came by to top up my water. Will definitely be back to try more dishes! Oh and parking was so easy for a Saturday night. Snagged a primo spot right out front of the restaurant on the street, and plenty more spots available on the side streets. read more

Super tasty Thai place on Fraser. What a pleasant surprise. Parking is available on the side streets. This place sure is popular. There was a 30-60 minute lineup when I went. On a weekday. The inside has a tropical theme going, with lots of bamboo trim. Staff are friendly. I think I heard them speaking Thai. The stir-fri Thai holy basil, which is a signature dish. The spiciness comes in 4 levels: mild, medium, spicy, and Thai spicy. Most Thai places here are "North American spicy" so this raised an eyebrow or two. I had my dish spicy (Level 3) and sure enough, it wasn't exactly Thai spicy, so my buddy and I asked for some red cut chili. This brought the spiciness level to what I remember from Thailand. The stewed beef was tender and not dry. Served with an inverted dome of jasmine rice, and a fried egg. Quite tasty I must say. I would come back. Recommended. read more

I want to love this place but I think consistency is not there yet. I was the first customer and it still took some time for the order to be taken and food to be served. I ordered the pad gra pao (Thai holy basil with minced pork). That's the dish I usually order to see how authentic or good the place is. It's a common dish all over Thailand. I was really disappointed when it came out. There was barely any basil leaves or chili etc. just a mound of minced meat. The fried egg didn't have crispy edges. It looked so plain. Not that saucy either. Later I found a couple of basil leaves underneath the meat. It was not very good at all. I also ordered the crispy grilled pork highly recommended by other yelpers. This was really nice. I loved the dipping sauce which came with it. Unfortunately it took about 20 minutes for it to be served. When I asked about the status of the dish, the staff then told me it was made to order. That's why it took 15-20 minutes to be ready. I wish the staff would inform customers about the wait time when being ordered. Or have that indicated on the menu. The upside was I got full by the time the crispy grilled pork came out so I tried some and then packed the leftovers. The crispy grilled pork sauce made the pad gra pao taste so much better when I had them the next day. Pro tip: no blinds on windows so avoid tables where the sun shines directly in. Service was a bit slow. Make reservations as it got busy by 1230 pm on weekdays. read more

I found this restaurant while browsing Instagram, and it sounds very interesting to me since they offer Northern Thai food. What I ordered was: Assorted Appertizers Veggie Spring Rolls, Crispy Pork Toasts, Shrimp Wraps, and Pork Jerky -The spring roll and shrimp wrap were just okay. The pork toast was better than the other items; however, I prefer a little bit more filling. The pork jerky was also just okay. Compared to the pork jerky in Thailand, it was more like grilled pork than pork jerky. Nam Tok Crispy Grilled Pork -The grilled pork salad was the best dish. The pork was juicy and well-marinated. The herbs and lime brought out strong flavors. I really liked this dish. Pad See Ew -There are a lot of ingredients, including the pork I chose, that taste really good Mango Sticky rice -The presentation was great. The sticky rice had a green color, and there was a small paper umbrella placed on top of the mango. However, the mango was not ripe, and the sticky rice needed more coconut flavor. The coconut milk on the side was not enough, and the sticky rice needed to cool down more as it was hot. Unfortunately, it was a disappointing dish. Overall, my experience at Zabbite was just okay. I hope they improve some dishes, and I will visit again to try different ones. read more

Decided to try Zab Bite, a NE Thai restaurant, that took over the space from Saigon Taste. They're next door to Grand View Szechuan. We dropped in on a Wednesday evening (7:30pm). Make reservations because it was packed. Waters were constantly refilled. There's a lunch menu (Monday to Thursday, 11:30am to 2:00pm) but you only save a few bucks. - Virgin "be salamati" ($7.00) - refreshing. - Crispy roti ($3.00) - light, flaky but greasy. - 3x Jasmine rice ($2.00) - ordered three bowls to share between our group of four. - Pad see ew ($21.00) - my favourite dish. Wide, flat noodles had a great chew/elasticity. - Panang curry ($19.00) - zero spice level. Eggplant slices but wish there was more substance. - Yum crispy grilled pork ($21.00) - juicy but the sauce really elevated the flavours. Small portion. - Nam tok crying tiger ($29.00) - short ribs came out medium rare. Again, small portion. - Mango sticky rice parfait ($13.00) - sticky rice was interestingly infused with pandan. Good flavours but small portions. 3.5 stars. read more

Ambiance is bright and clean with a modern interior. Space is quite small and tight so reservations is highly recommended to secure a table. I find the noise level high not from music but from people talking. I think the place needs to improve on acoustics. Servers were very busy but nonetheless did a good job to accommodate us. Love Thai food and came here after seeing posts on IG. It didn't disappoint. Gosh our group of 6 was in heaven! It was so good bite after bite. *Nam Tok Crispy Grilled Pork $21: oooo love the crispy texture and the sauce it's in. Crispy skin is not thick like other versions of crispy pork but there's a crisp texture to it. *Crying Tiger $27: gosh so so delicious esp with the Thai seeet chili dipping sauce *Boat Noodle $24: deep- flavored beef soup tastes like it's cooked in herbs. *Stir Fry Thai Holy Basil $19: ground pork recommended as it is the original version accdg to our server. Very very delicious & flavourful *Laab Moo $18: unusual salad dish...if only all salads are made with meat and less veggies. *Pad Thai $20: although a staple in Thai food, this dish elicited a "wow" from our party. *Pad See Ew $21: yummy and delicious Would have eaten buckets of rice with above dishes if only I'm not on a carb diet. read more

One of the best Thai restaurants in Vancouver in a local scene that does not have the greatest quality Thai food compared to many other cosmopolitan North American cities. My wife & I visited for dinner after confirming that they can make some dishes vegan -- which mostly means no fish sauce and egg for the already vegetarian dishes. We ordered: -Green curry with tofu ($19) -- we ordered this Thai spicy, which came with a decent kick but could've been spicier for out tastes. Regardless, the curry was rich, complex and wonderfully balanced, coming with 6 large pieces of deep fried tofu and sliced eggplant. It would have been good to have some more/additional vegetables, but, regardless, this was fantastic. -Thai Hot & Herbal Stir-Fry with tofu ($19; made vegan by omitting egg) -- very tasty, lightly sweet and very nicely savoury stirfry amped up by the peppercorns and Thai herbs, coming with gai lan, baby corn, and 6 large pieces of deep fried tofu, served with a side of steamed rice. Probably the least interesting of the 3 dishes we ordered, but still damn delicious. -Pad see ew with tofu ($22; made vegan by omitting the egg) -- this came with perfectly cooked wide rice noodles, copious amounts of gai lan, and 6 large pieces of deep fried tofu. Wonderfully flavoured, amply portioned -- top-notch pad see ew. Portions were plentiful and prices were reasonable compared to Thai food prices in Vancouver. The way they cooked the tofu for all 3 dishes was especially satisfying. The quality was top-notch and perhaps only rivalled by Kin Kao (both locations but especially Song) in town for vegan-friendly Thai food. The service was also fantastic -- extremely friendly, attentive, and clear. Great spot. Highly recommended. read more

We waited almost an hour to eat here while visiting Vancouver because I love Thai food and have never had Michelin recommended Thai food! It's super busy on the weekends so highly recommend a reservation. It's a small bustling restaurant, but the food is very unique. The green curry is one of the best that I've had ever, but I was a little disappointed by the holy basil stirfry. We got it with tofu, and while the tofu was super crispy and delicious, perhaps the sauce was not enough to really balance out the rice portion. I also felt like everything was missing more vegetables, which I'm not sure if that's the authentic way it's made, but I would've liked more of. I'm surprised that rice doesn't come with the green curry and you have to order it separate, because I'm not sure how else you would have it.
