Came here as an accident, When it comes to food I am a MEAT eater. The dishes I had (Portbello Burger and Mac n Cheese Burger) were not bad. If you order here be wary as their single dish is enough to feed two. Come here and leave your meat pants at the door or you'll feel unsatisfied, everything tasted like a nice slab of meat would have perfected it. You take that away, and then you realize, hey? These are pretty good! While I can say the food was very delicious, trendy and everything looked good; the items on the menu lacked heaviness which is made up with portions. I feel like it would have helped we got some rice instead of so much french fries, the salad...french fries and then salad burger is just too much. Some garlic bread or a poutine would help bring some weight to their dishes. Maybe burger, salad, rice/poutine would have been way better than just french fries. They allow you to sub with either a main salad or main french fries but it's just too much food to compensate for being full or not which is why I recommend splitting it. Also oddly enough, I'm 75% sure because of how healthy the food is, you will be going to the washroom, our bodies are not used to what the chefs bring to the table good! Just be ready to use the washroom after your meal as it was packed the whole time we were there. Speaking of washrooms, it's inclusive too, no male/female, very modern and progressive. I'm neutral with those kinds of things but I always believed washrooms should just be unisex if both the male/female just has one stand or if one genders washrooms is just full all the time. Last thoughts, give it a try as a vegan/vegetarian. You come in as a meat eater and depending on what you get, you will miss the meat part. Don't come here craving meat because this place will treat you right with their veggies!

Went to this spot for brunch – their brunch hours until 3 pm were a lifesaver. Despite my high expectations, I didn't find as many options as I'd hoped for, given my gluten and dairy restrictions. But here's the thing – if you're a vegetarian, this place is a dream. They've got an array of delicious choices, and what's even better is that their menu clearly labels items catering to dietary restrictions. No need to play the twenty questions game with the server. Now, let me expand about the service – it was top-notch. Our server was on the ball and super friendly. I'd definitely recommend this spot for all the veggies out there and even vegans. However, if you're in the same boat as me, it might be a good idea to skim the menu beforehand, so you're ready to throw in a few substitution requests. The staff here was awesome about helping out with that

If you are going to go to MeeT in Gastown you should know ahead of time, it is a vegan restaurant. We didn’t. I gather the name of the restaurant is supposed to be a play on words but it really is not obvious at all according to their menu. I started to get a little suspicious when I saw items on the menu like “aged cashew-cheddar” and “hemp-based caesar dressing”. I scanned the hamburgers section. All I saw was, “…all burgers are served with crispy fries AND salad, come on a kaiser bun with lettuce and tomatoes.” Sounded good to me so I ordered the Southern Barbecue Burger. It was not until after we ordered that we noticed at the bottom of the menu, “All menu items are vegan AND gluten free”. Bloody hell. I was going to pay +$14 for a burger that did not contain meat? I asked the waitress what exactly was in the burger and did not get a clear answer. To this day, I have no idea what I actually ate. All I know is like most vegetarian dishes it was too sweet for me. Had I known it was vegetarian, I would never have ordered the southern BBQ knowing it would make it even sweeter. I would have ordered the portobello mushroom burger, damn it. I feel like the restaurant was misleading and just confirmed I never want to be a vegetarian again. We had great service, were seated immediately and overall had a great experience but deep down, I was pissed. I felt like I was duped and did not enjoy the food. I will not be back. Update: Here is the response from the restaurant “Hey Suzie! The patty consists of non-soy plant based proteins, primarily wheat and barley. Other veggies are also added for texture, taste and nutritional content. The cheese is cashew based and our BBQ sauce is a house-made whiskey based sauce. Hope that clears things up. Holla if you have any further questions!”

I’ve been to MeeT several times over the years. I’ve dined at both the Yaletown location and Gastown locations. The first time I dined at the restaurant was actually a mistake on my part. I thought the restaurant was a meat focused restaurant or BBQ restaurant. The manager convinced us to stay and try the “wings”. I was pleasantly surprised and the meal was fabulous. From then on, we’ve been back several times up until about a year ago. We went to the Yaletown location and had an awful experience. The service and food were terrible. Since then, we haven’t been back until today. Our experience today was truly phenomenal. Friendly and awesome service. Great food, and overall, a wonderful time. I’m glad we decided to come back because after today, we’ll be back frequently and we were glad that our one-time poor experience was just that. Great job!

If i could rate this place higher I would! An amazing and spacious restaurant with beautiful windows made it not at all boring for someone eating alone who also forgot their book at home (oops lol). My server was super friendly and helpful as well as all the other staff there. They really made things feel light and pleasant from the moment I walked in the door. Now for the food; I ordered the ginger shrub to drink and the Mediterranean burger on a gluten free bun and both were AMAZING!! Entirely plant based, full of flavour, and very filling. Not only that but there were TONS of gluten free options on the menu and actually took it seriously when I said I had an allergy to gluten, which was a refreshing change to what I’m used too. If you get the chance definitely check this place out if you’re looking for a good plant based restaurant!!

Best. Fries. Ever. I love Kim Chi, so the k-town poutine was one of the best things I’ve ever tasted. The burger was also good, very Smokey and delicious, but just overshadowed by the fries. The supremely green drink came in a bottle and was what I expected. Ordered Crispy BBQ burger and upgraded my fries to the k-town poutine with supremely kale cold press drink. CRISPY BBQ BURGER (‡) our signature burger patty, crispy-battered and tossed in our whiskey BBQ sauce, topped with crispy onion strings, a slice of chao cheez and chipotle mayo K-TOWN POUTINE (◊) Fries topped with cheezy gooey gravy goodness drizzled with a sweet soy ginger sauce - topped with kimchi, and shredded nori strips +Supremely Kale+ 100% Cold Pressed Juice Mix of kale, spinach, apple, celery, cucumber, lemon, ginger
