The brisket on the caramelized onion bagel. The brisket was so soft and with the sweet bagel. What a delight. Finished with a piece of flapper pie. What a great place!
Best pies in YEG!
Great place to stop for a slice of pie and hot beverage. Take-out order is wonderful and the staff are so friendly.
Must try!
We ordered all of the cakes for our wedding from Vi's for Pies. We picked an assortment of regular cakes and cheesecakes. They looked beautiful and our guests loved them!
Good food, and a nice atmosphere (great little patio) the only issue I have is that the crust on their cheesecake is always too salty. I've talked about it with a friend who agrees, so it's not all in my head, but folks who love salt may not notice/care. Great BBQ and fantastic thick slices of cheese on their sandwiches with a fantastic spread.
Cute place for a quiet date night
We came on a rainy night but there was something romantic about having pie/cake and milk near a window
Hubby had berry pie a la mode and I had German chocolate cake; servings are great and staff do not pressure you to finish your dessert quickly
Patio is cute with lanterns and foliage and I'm aiming to sit outside next visit on a cool summer night !
This really isn't a full review per se as I have yet to actually sit down and dine but getting some pie to go is enough to warrant a review. Me and my girlfriend got their Lemon Raspberry and Strawberry Creme to go. The Lemon Raspberry has a nice blend of lemon flavour and raspberry without being too sweet. My Strawberry pie was filled with strawberries and I love the crust when you mix it was with Creme on top. Everything is home made of course but the price is a little steep in my opinion. Both slices of pie came out to just under $15. For almost $7+ dollars for a slice of pie it better be the most amazing slice of pie I ever had in my life. But it wasn't, it was good but no where near amazing. I'd rather go to Duchess or Cobbs Bakery instead. Or better yet head to any grocery store and pickup a whole pie for yourself.
I enjoyed the chicken pot pie and was very impressed with the deserts. My only suggestion would be to add a little love to the salad side, but regardless very fresh and tasty still!
I've always loved coming here since I was in Jr. High 8 years ago! Been coming back ever since. I will attest to the fact that the service could always use some improvement (servers at points are great at the disappearing act) but the food has always been fantastic! Veggie lasagna will always be my fave! Not a dessert person but if they have their Nanaimo Bars I always get one! It's a must try if you're not too uptight about the service aspect of eating out 😝
Lived literally beside this restaurant for 20 years of my life and have never had a bad experience, homemade food and desserts a definite favorite is Keylime pie and Carmel bars
This is a hidden gem for Edmonton. Period.
Vi's is one of our favourites for date night. It is small and relatively intimate. There is a beautiful patio for when weather permits and a fireplace inside for winter.
The daily menu is brought to your table as a chalkboard on an easel. They generally have a selection of comfort food all year round, and barbeque in the summer months.
We have never been disappointed with the soups. They are always flavourful and hit the spot every time. They always use really good ingredients for everything on the menu. You will never leave hungry!
Vi's, as the name suggests, is famous for the desserts. The selection is always different. Cheesecakes, tortes, pies, squares etc. There hasn't been anything that we have tried yet that we haven't enjoyed.
They also sell the cakes etc whole to take home, but I suggest you call ahead, as you never know what will be in the case.
Went for the first time today. Very friendly staff and local cafe atmosphere. The Creamy Chicken Barley soup was do die for. My Chicken Sandwich had a soft bun, fresh crisp vegetables and creamy dill sauce. The portion size and quality of food exceeded the price point. Got a piece of Blueberry/Strawberry Crumble cake to try later. Will definitely visit again!
I go to this great landmark restaurant at least twice a week and am never disappointed. One of only a few now still requiring proof of vaccination and that makes me very happy! The special each day is a delectable choice of usually a rice or noodle dish prepared by skilled chef(s). Salads and two different soups each day are fantastic especially accompanied by a house specialty whole grain bun. And the desserts are lavishly and spectacularly delicious; so large that most are shareable. Vi’s also has a good selection of fine wines and other specialty beverages. Servers are very friendly, knowledgeable, and attentive to detail. Please support local business by visiting this Glenora restaurant with a reputation for excellent quality and service.
I tried the key lime pie and found it to be smooth, creamy and cool. Yum! I would love to come back to try the savoury menu. Love the vibe of this place. Please open one on the south side!
Good services and delicious pies. Very comfy inside. I love both shepherd's and chicken pies, but their cakes are yummy too! Highly recommended!
Good value for the meal! The staff are friendly and the place has a comfy cafe feel with a beautiful patio option! Looking forward to visiting again, and taking a whole pie home !
It’s been awhile since I’ve eaten or had dessert here. Went in today and purchased a piece of chocolate and caramel cake to take home. It tastes even better than I remember! Decadent, rich, flavourful, and you can tell that they use quality ingredients.
I ate about half the slice and will eat the rest tomorrow (that is, if I don’t wake-up in the middle of the night and devour it lol). A wonderful treat! Next on the list, the Oreo cheesecake!
I just finished a fantastic lunch here. Service and food were excellent. Prices are very reasonable and the quality of the food was great. We had brisket and ribs. Sides were soup, slaw, and biscuit. Amazing. Atmosphere is casual, the light in the afternoon was lovely. Not pretentious, this is a comfortable, “everything made in house” neighbourhood gem. Almost like a bistro atmosphere with excellent comfort food. Of course we got pie to go!
We ordered a big order of assorted pies for a work function. Vi's made an amazing assortment. So many happy people raving about the pies. Deep, flavorful and amazing crust. Will have to go visit and try more food. Thank you for helping make our day so yummy.
