Best Restaurants in Chinatown

17 restaurants analyzed · Vancouver

Vancouver's Chinatown delivers some of the strongest Asian and Japanese dining in the city, with a concentration of quality that regularly surprises even seasoned local diners. Most meals here land in the moderate price range, meaning you can eat exceptionally well without much financial planning. Centred around Pender Street and Gore Avenue, it's the kind of neighbourhood where a casual lunch can quietly outperform spots charging twice as much elsewhere in Vancouver.
