Agat, her family and staff are amazing, food is fantastic...all the feeling of a family owned European cafe with the best vegan raw food EVER!
Hands down....best Vegan food in town!! I've been to LA and sampled over half a dozen Vegan places there too and TAO is a step up again for me. Well done to all involved :D
The rating is only for the food. I ordered the rawsagna (vegan lasagna). The portion is so puny for almost $10. My colleague was making fun of the portion size for the amount I paid. The taste though is excellent. I normally don't eat vegetables but I have to say the lasagna is absolutely delicious and the quality is really fresh and excellent. After eating it, I was still hungry. For the portion, you have to order at least 3 portions to be mostly full. The price is quite expensive for puny portion. If you count the price also, I would give it a 2.5 stars.
When I get ground down in terms of energy and vitality due to my workload, Tao is my reset button. I go have an incredibly healthy meal that I couldn't possibly make myself without research/raw food classes, and dropping a small fortune on organic/raw ingredients at Whole Foods... After my meal I load up on the fresh, organic juices, having renewed my resolve not to take my health for granted!
Wonderful!. Whether you're vegan or not (I am, BF is vegetarian), you will most definitely appreciate the colourful, healthy, delicious food! The owner is so, so sweet and all of the staff are very friendly. Dine in, take out, or pick up some kale chips on your way home. Love this place and the parvati rolls are a fav!

Raw goodness!. Really love this place. The cafe is peaceful, and the food is delicious. The desserts and crackers are all super tasty -- and, importantly, the juices are MADE TO ORDER. Now that's a juice bar extraordinaire.
Also, I took one of the owner's cooking classes, and I highly recommend them to anyone looking at getting into raw food preparation!
We followed the Tao.... Can't say enough good things about this place. My boyfriend and I were visiting North Van, and another restaurant we were going to go to didn't work out as planned. My boyfriend casually said "Well, we'll just follow the Tao..." (just go with the flow and let whatever restaurant we come across be the one we go to). Funny enough, we ended up going to Cafe by Tao, and the service was amazing and so was the food and atmosphere. It's cozy, bright, and friendly - and all the food there is nutritious and raw!
And if you go there, make sure you get the chocolate "please" cake at some point - just thinking about it makes my mouth water!
I felt the love and passion behind Café by Tao. It warms my heart to discover places like this.
I have heard a lot about Nuba and was excited to finally try it. They have a feast option on their menu (meat or vegetarian) and this allows you to try a few different things and to share at your table. The feast platter is sized based on the size of your party. The food was vibrant and delicious. They have really great vegetarian options as well and a great drink menu.
A friend highly recommended this place, we went there for early dinner.
The service was great and the restaurant is quiet spacious. We didn’t have to wait too long for our order to arrive.
We loved loved everything that we ordered, specially the hummus. It was so fresh and we couldn’t stop eating.
Will definitely recommend this place to others and keep visiting.
My husband and I went here for our anniversary dinner and absolutely loved the food! The service was decent and timely. The disappointing piece for us was that the music seemed really disjointed with the style of the restaurant. Having cultural Lebanese music would have really added to the atmosi, rather than what seemed like British pop music.
Definitely a good place to grab a bite if you’re in gastown! I’ve not been one for Lebanese dishes, but the food here is absolutely fantastic. The chicken dishes are particularly great and their plating is on point!
Fresh and delicious! Service was also great. I would definitely go back and highly recommend it.
We ordered the vegetarian sharing platter and we ate every last bit!
