   Was pleased with the food and the ambiance but service can improve as it was so hard to find my server. Also was charged for live performance although I left as they are setting up.

   The menu was varied and everything sounded good to me. Got the spinach and eggplant wraps which came with a delicious cup of mushroom soup and a lovely small salad. It was too much food for me to eat at lunch so I’m having the eggplant wrap for dinner tonight. Thought the spinach wrap was superb. Will definitely return!

   Possibly the most confusing menu I’ve seen for awhile, but the pleasant staff helped us through it. The food was quite tasty and the guitar music was nice and not too loud.

   This is an exceptional experience of incredible servings. What a treat to try so many middle eastern varieties! The place itself is visually alluring and set in warm colours with lower lighting, quite romantic The live music variety has me going regularly without a disappointment to date! Bravo!

   Fantastic food. Seats are a bit uncomfortable. Got the silk and spice tasting menu. I wouldn’t say it was good value, but it was high quality.

    East is East Silk n' Spice has become one of our favourite restaurants. The food is delicious and there is a nice variety to choose from. The decort of the restaurant is quite interesting such as the feature wall made out of salt bricks. The staff is also very friendly and we would highly recommend this place.

    We order the chai set which gave us the opportunity to try a soup, salad, dip and 3 main dishes. The cauliflower, mango chicken and lamb curry were so good. The waitresses asked if we wanted to order more main, so we did. We were not aware the additional orders would cost $3 each. There was no indication on the menu nor did the servers inform us. This was disappointing. The next sets of main dishes were not as appetizing and felt like it was the last batch of the night. Would suggest you visit the place on a less busy night, and probably order other food to get the value and taste this place is known for.

    We visited East is East with my family. We have previously enjoyed ordering dishes off the menu and all sharing. They have stopped doing this. One where on their website, menu not server informed us of this. We were forced to spend 40 per person to participate in the chai fest if we wanted to stay. We unfortunately were not able to get the other two options that you could get for dinner. The food was tasty but for 40 per person it is not worth it. I will continue to order take out from here as you can order specific dishes at a dinner size. I will not be dining in any longer.

    Everything was delicious! We had the tasting menu, no one could decide on any single item as their favorite. The price was more than fair, considering the unlimited supply of dishes. Plus, the serving staff checked often to see if we wanted more food.

    Took hubby and my toddler here for fathers day dinner yesterday. We had the Chai Feast Tasting Menu and it was absolutely amazing. It's pretty much the classiest and most tasty all you can eat in town. They bring you small portions for you to sample and if you like it you can order it again. This is how all you can eat should be done! Zero food-wasting since you order as you finish the items. My favorite was definitely the mango chicken! The restaurant was busy yesterday and they knew they were running behind and they warned us in advance saying our food may be delayed and they gave us big glasses of chai tea, which by the way is absolutely delicious, on the house to sip on while we waited. I don't know how much better the service can get? Instead of leaving us frustrated waiting they warned us in advance and gave us complimentary chai! It took about an hour for our food to come but we had zero complaints because we were told in advance! The food was absolutely delicious and we savored every bite. We will definitely be back again! As a bonus my toddler didn't even want to leave because the seating was so comfy she wanted to lay on all the plush pillows! I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone. Ambience, food, service, decor, authenticity is 10/10!

    We went for our 2 year anniversary and loved this place. I found the chai to have a little too much spice in them (and this is coming from an Indian who has has masala chai in India many times). Overall though I loved it! The love music was the cherry on top! I would go again if life brings me back to Vancouver. Highly recommend.

    Amazing food and service. We had family visiting from abroad and this was their favorite meal so far! Definitely worth trying out the Chai Feast menu - Amazing value for $40 and you can try as many dishes as you like! Servers were also really lovely and attentive - will definitely be back before the family leave 😊😊

    Amazing venue decor and ambience. Should change the name to Silk and Sweet though as there is literally no spice at all and most dishes are overly sweet instead. Whitewashed Mediterranean/South Asian food. If you don't like spicy but would like to try this culture's cuisine and dishes it will be heaven for you.

    Every *measure* of a restaurant is Five-Star for this place: Food (Chai Feast is great) and drinks (unique and tasty teas), service, cleanliness, decor, music, etc. My family and friends dined in this restaurant, and we left very happy every time.

    The food was very good and exactly the same as the Main Street location. This was our first time at this location. The service was terrible. Excessive wait for food, and they were constantly bringing the wrong plates and not what we ordered. I resent a restaurant automatically suggesting a tip when paying with a card when service is so poor.

    Amazing food. Excellent service from both server and bussers. Warning: The front door was kept open which meant most guests had to keep a coat on to deal with the cold wind. They refuse to close the door despite numerous tables requesting.
