Unrestricted Middle Eastern cuisine served in a cozy space inspired by a Levantine courtyard. Aleph’s menu draws inspiration from classic Middle Eastern staples to offer a borderless cuisine experience. At Aleph, dishes are cooked with fresh ingredients making use of the excellent Middle Eastern spices, vibrant vegetables and, of course, an abundance of the best olive oil.

    We had the most delicious breakfast. Gaza scramble. Sooo yummy. We are so sad to see this beautiful restaurant with its beautiful people are closing. It’s heartbreaking to see them closing their doors and hoping to have them back somewhere and soon.

    It was a bittersweet experience dining for the last time at Aleph. This is my favourite restaurant in Vancouver and I’ll miss it a lot. All the best in their future endeavours.

    Aleph: please reopen soon! Such a wonderful restaurant. Delicious, imaginative— and vegan! — food. Servers and chefs who seem to love their jobs and to be happy introducing diners to the cuisine. Good alcoholic and non-alcoholic wines available. And very reasonable prices! A neighborhood gem.

    Delicious food and amazing desserts, indulgent but not too sweet or heavy. Would love to go again and again, such a shame it's closing 💔

    Absolutely brilliant dinner! We are SO gutted that this incredible gem of plant based dining is closing. Aleph holds so much value for the city of Vancouver, I wish the restaurant had reached out to their community a year ago to try and get ahead of their debt problems. I honestly believe we could’ve come together and helped them pull through. My partner is not vegan, and mentioned three separate times how amazing the flavours and dishes were. I have never had a bad meal from there, and we will both miss this restaurant dearly. Thank you so much for the amazing food and the dining experience, not just last night but for the many years Aleph has existed.

    Amazing place, the best vegan restaurant in Vancouver and so so sad that they’re closing. It’s such a heartbreaking news for all of us who loves this beautiful restaurant and their amazing staff. Hope to see them again back to their amazing work.
