Lonely Planet review for Vij’s
Just off S Granville St, ever-popular Vij’s is the high-water mark of contemporary East Indian cuisine, fusing regional ingredients, subtle global flourishes and classic ethnic dishes to produce an array of innovative flavors. The unique results range from signature wine-marinated ‘lamb popsicles’ to savor-worthy dishes like halibut, mussels and crab in a tomato-ginger curry. The adventurous should also try the paranta : flat breads made with roasted ground crickets. Reservations are not accepted: avoid the queues by hitting Rangoli, the adjoining take-out cafe. Plans were afoot at the time of research to move to a new Cambie St location, so call ahead.

Best Indian food restaurant
skicabin recommends this,
Eating at Vij's is an experience not to be missed, the food is wonderful, the portion sizes just right and the atmosphere though a bit noisey is very friendly. Go early, say at 5pm and miss the line-up then you will have time afterwards to explore the Granville street shops or theatres. One of our favourite drinks is the mango juice that complements any main course meal.
