About V-Nam
V-Nam is a Vietnamese restaurant at 1643 Lonsdale Avenue in North Vancouver serving pho, noodle soups, and lemongrass chicken with daily hours from 11 a.m. to 9 p.m.
Rainy days along the Lonsdale corridor often call for a steaming bowl of pho, and V-Nam at 1643 Lonsdale Avenue fills that need with familiar Vietnamese comfort dishes. This spot serves spicy beef noodle soup, beef tripe noodle soup, and seafood noodle soup alongside special pho and beef brisket options that regulars seem to appreciate. Lemongrass chicken and papaya salad provide lighter alternatives when you want something beyond broth-based meals. The central location makes it accessible by bus or on foot from nearby apartments, distinguishing it from similarly named establishments like Vinam Vietnamese Cuisine down on Chadwick Court in Lower Lonsdale.
Hours listed in third-party records show daily service from 11 a.m. to 9 p.m., covering both lunch and dinner rushes for residents moving up and down the avenue. Since no official website appears in current directory data, confirming holiday schedules or specific ordering options requires a quick phone call to 604-990-8897 before heading out. Customer feedback highlights the food and atmosphere without making grand claims about recipe lineage or delivery zones, keeping expectations grounded in neighborhood reality. For North Shore diners comparing Vietnamese options between Central Lonsdale, Lynn Valley, and the waterfront, this restaurant offers straightforward noodle soups and lemongrass plates rather than scenic views or extensive brand marketing. It remains a practical stop for those seeking documented favorites in a walkable stretch of the city.
