Sun Bo Kong is hands-down my favorite vegetarian restaurant in Vancouver. I bring all my friends and family here, it’s the kind of place that impresses everyone, whether they’re vegan or not.
The food is consistently delicious, and the menu is packed with variety. Some of my absolute go-to dishes are the pea tips with enoki mushrooms (so fresh and flavorful), the three kinds of mushroom in seaweed soup (deeply comforting), the vegetable deluxe (a colorful medley done perfectly), and the eggplant and tofu hot pot (a warm, savory favorite). Honestly, you can’t go wrong with any of their bean curd dishes either, they know exactly how to make tofu shine.
On top of that, the staff are always warm and welcoming, and the owner is an absolute legend, he can do a two-thumb push-up! You can feel the love and pride in every part of this place.
The portion sizes are generous, and they have tons of vegan options as well as many gluten-free choices, which makes it easy to bring groups with different dietary needs. Whether you’re a local or just visiting Vancouver, Sun Bo Kong is a must-try.
