Aiyaohno Cafe on Carrall Street is a quiet spot to enjoy Japanese-inspired dishes. The café has a simple, uncluttered interior with wooden surfaces and large pottery, creating a space where you can sit and focus on the food and drinks. The matcha drinks stand out, especially the Iced Strawberry Matcha Latte, where the tart strawberry sauce balances the richness of the matcha. The café also serves dishes with seasonal ingredients, such as fresh fish and vegetables, that taste bright and fresh. Their coconut miso ramen and bento boxes highlight attention to flavor and balance without overwhelming the palate. The café makes many of its items in-house, from bread to pickles, which adds a satisfying sense of freshness. You can linger over a drink, watch people pass by the street, or enjoy a calm meal away from the city rush. Aiyaohno Cafe delivers a simple and thoughtful dining experience in the heart of Vancouver’s Chinatown.
