THE best vegan restaurant in Vancouver, hands down - Edit
If you haven't been to MILA yet, drop everything and go! They take vegan dining to a whole new level with an incredible menu made with love and an incredible understanding of how different flavours pair together. Along with their ever evolving menu, it's a place you'll be happy to return to many times. I think I'm on my sixth visit already!

Best spot in Vancouver - Edit
Spent a few days in Vancouver and MILA was our favorite! The space was cute and inviting and the food was spectacular. We split the MILA roll as an appetizer, then had an order of the kebab pita and the mushroom and sausage tagliatelle. They were both superb! We topped things off with a slice of the peanut butter cup pie and eton mess. Great service and overall wonderful experience.
Read morePros: Fresh, Flavorful, Friendly

Disappointed. Don't get ripped off by coming here. - Edit
I think they're trying too hard to veganize non-vegan recipes, and failing, rather than doing their own style of food.
Read moreWe had 6 items: WELLINGTON, CACIO E PEPE, TUNA CRISPY RICE, INARI, SMASHED POTATOES, PUMPKIN PIE.
Inari: OK, interesting smokey sauce and 'caviar', very expensive.
Tuna Crispy Rice: Probably the best item they have in terms of flavour, but extremely expensive for what you get.
Smashed Potatoes: Very bland, even with the dipping sauce. Had to add salt / pepper for SOME flavour.
Cacio e pepe: Basically cheesey pepper pasta. Too cheesey, lacking any other flavour. Reminds me of store-bought vegan mac&cheese, pretty terrible.
Wellington: Brussels sprouts were bland, the puree and sauce were meh, wellington itself was also meh. The flavours were just off and didn't compliment each other. Don't feel good after eating it.
Pumpkin Pie: Basically like frozen/refrigerated store-bought vegan pumpkin pie. They didn't even heat it up or anything. The crust, which is usually the best part, should be crispy/crunchy instead of a soggy/just-thawed. And they threw some weird candy that's sticky and chewy on top, which gets stuck in between your teeth and really made things worse than just leaving it out. $12 for a slice of this crap.
I shoulda got the hint when the waitress was incompetent at the start. I asked if they needed to write down our order before I go ahead, and said 'no, I'll remember it.' Then inputted our order wrong and another waitress had to fix it. Bruh moment.
You spend $80 and walk away unsatisfied and disappointed. This place sucks.
All these positive reviews are either fake or by people with REALLY low standards.

Highlight of Vancouver - Edit
I spent two weeks in Vancouver and my meal at MILA was definitely the best of the entire trip. The grilled squash salad was spectacular - made me appreciate radicchio in a way I never had before, and the combination of flavors and textures was a home run.

Came here and got the poke sushi, Dan Dan noodles and bao buns. Everything was incredible, also got the all that glitter cocktails and finished it off with the meringue desert. So wonderful, the bartender was super sweet and we had great conversation. Would definitely come here again!

Big hits and big misses - Edit
Hard to rate because the hits were REALLY hits, totally 5 star. The breakfast bao, sushi, and Dan Dan noodles in particular. And the desserts! Some of the best food I’ve had. The atmosphere is good. But, I’ve also had some really bad experiences that you don’t expect at that price point. Some dry pastas, things coming out cold (and then waiting for ages for them to bring it out again while everyone else is already done their meal), and weird/bad service at times. Always felt understaffed.
Read morePros: Brunch is excellent , Nice interior , Good food and wine list
Cons: Expensive , Bad service at times , Dry and cold pastas

Curbed my craving for quiche during covid! - Edit
We made a reservation for MILA for our Valentine’s Day meal when it had newly opened - it was during covid so the atmosphere wasn’t great, all masked up and limited number of guests but the interior was nice and the food was approved by us both.
Read moreI had waited some ridiculous number of years for quiche - I think this was the first vegan quiche I’d ever had so I must’ve been waiting near on 5+ years. I got a slice of quiche in addition to my meal but had to take it home as my meal was quite filling.
My partner also enjoyed the sushi - he is a huge seafood fan but did rate the vegan sushi here at MILA!
I’d love to come back when I’m back in Van to experience MILA post-pandemic and have some more quiche!
Pros: Vegan quiche!, Modern/sleek interior, Filling food
milaplantbased
It was a sad time but thankfully we're all back to normal now, even hosting events and large parties regularly! Can't wait to have you back again. We no longer serve the quiche but sure you'll enjoy something from our new menu.

Loved it! - Edit
While visiting friends in Vancouver we had the pleasure of dining at Mila. For dinner we had mushroom Wellington served with some of the tastiest roasted Brussels sprouts we ever had. Dessert was peanut butter cup pie, rich and delicious. We look forward to eating there again the next time we are in Vancouver.

Delicious and Creative Menu - Edit
Have only visited once and will definitely be going back! The best thing we tried is the karaage bao hands down, I would have ordered 3 more orders for myself if I had a bigger stomach. The celeriac cod tacos were to die for and my partner had the smash burger which was delicious and flavourful. The apple pie bao was outstanding as well, I cannot wait to try more items on the menu!
