A lively vegan comfort-food spot with standout oyster mushroom kalamari, hearty bowls, and friendly service; expect creative twists, occasional waits, and mixed consistency on busy nights.

Why it gets a B+ for overall quality

MeeT delivers above-average food quality with creative vegan comfort dishes that earn genuine loyalty, but inconsistent execution—ranging from perfectly seasoned kalamari to occasional bland or overly salty plates—prevents a higher grade. Friendly, attentive service and a lively Yaletown patio create welcoming atmosphere, though peak-time pacing lapses and temperature issues suggest operational challenges. The restaurant competes well among neighborhood vegan destinations but lacks the polish and reliability of higher-rated establishments.

Restaurant Summary

The room feels warm and bustling with a dog-friendly patio that soaks up Yaletown energy. Staff are often genuinely kind and helpful, and one guest called the oyster mushroom kalamari a can not miss. On busy nights, pacing can slip and some plates arrive not quite hot. The cooking leans creative vegan comfort rather than restraint: mac n cheez, loaded poutines, burgers stacked with onion rings, plus fusion bowls that roam from Thai to Peruvian. When it hits, flavors are bold and satisfying; a few diners report the occasional dish reading oily or salty, so ask for dressings or sauces on the side if you prefer balance. Families do fine here thanks to kid-pleasing staples like fries, mac n cheez (C$16.75), simple burgers, and cookies with mousse. More adventurous bowls (almond Thai sauce, spicy curries) may challenge picky eaters, but there are enough straightforward options to keep the table happy.
