Best places to eat in East Van Areas.
 

Anyone know any good places to eat if your in East Van?

Right now I'm around the Gladstone Secondary area.

Places on kingsway? commercial drive? Main or Fraser St.? I'm open to anything:

Greek,
Pho,
Sushi,
Indian,
Burgers,
anything that isn't too expensive.

Starting off with Vietnamese:
Pho Thai Hoa
Hai Phong
Petit Cafe

Bons

Song Houong

1st and Nanaimo. It's on Nanimo facing 7-11.

Get the Bun Bo Hue.

pho bitch negga

^^^ are they even in business anymore?

i know everyone thought it was a cool name and all but that doesnt make up for the fact that the food sucked.

they switched owners at least 5-6 times within the last 4-5 years or so.

i heard a couple of them had growops at the back or some shit lol

fck it's so hard to find places in this area because so many of them look soo shady on the outside so you don't want to go in and test it out.

I remembered 2 years ago or something I was gonna try this place on kingsway and when i went in the guys there were like: "sorry we all out". I'm like WTF? this was 1 PM. how do you stay in business if you sold out by 1 pm.

above poster:
I heard Bons is good for the breakfast but the wait is super long?

I tried the restaurant that's now there two weeks ago, where pho bich nga use to be: the lemon grass chicken was okay. but the place looks soo shady like most places in these areas. Plus some dudes were smoking in the place. PS, me and my friends were the only customers besides the gangsta looking dudes that were smoking.

bao chao for pho/spring rolls
samosa garden
sushi garden
lao shang dong
Ramie's greek taverna

cheap, but greasy as hell. also the service is slow as fuck.

hawkers is pretty good for the money ($5 for malaysian)

neighbors on victoria and 49th

no ideaa..pass by it a lot never bother trying it..looks shady yep.

for cheap sushi in east-van there's now a samurai sushi @ fraser &49th

quality obviously is meh, but the portions are the largest

Congee Noodle House
Bon Cafe
Tiem Banh Dong (for their banh mi)
Chili Pepper House
Panos
Angel Cafe

i would have to say the main street honolulu cafe is better than angel cafe !!

and DEFINATELY A +1 for congee noodle house =)

BINOS

Pho Bich Nga has been gone for like at least five years, I think... there's been at least two joints there since then.

+1 for Honolulu Cafe on Main St. I *heart* their breakfast there. Cheap too. For $5.50 plus tax. It fills you up good!

^^
Agreed that their breakfast deal is good. I mean come on chinese toast (si daw si) w/ eggs and sausage + satay beef instant noodles + cold drink for $5.50 score!

However, last time I went and a rat fell from the ceiling I stopped going.

si daw si is actually french toast, not chinese toast :lol

Uhhhh....I'm surprised they're not closed down after that.

^probably closed for like 2 days then re-opened.

:eek::Puke::Puke::Puke:

trocaderos. greek-italian food, on the same block as bons @ nanaimo and broadway.
delivers and makes a great pizza.

Dona Cata.

4 soft tacos @ $2 each, and you are full for <$10!

I also agree with a lot of suggestions here,
trocaderos, song huong, samurai, banh cuon, etc....

dona cata is pretty god
