Thai cuisine inspired by fresh west-coast ingredients
Michelin-recommended Maenam is located in the heart of Kitsilano on bustling West 4th Avenue.
From traditional family-style dining to riffs on Thai street food, Chef Angus An’s menu balances intense fresh flavours with seasonal ingredients and locally sourced products. Maenam’s vibrant Thai dishes are served alongside an inspired cocktail card, informed beer list, and an extensive selection of wines served by the glass or bottle.
Since opening in 2009, Maenam continues to grow and evolve. In April 2023, we have decided to focus exclusively on offering our multi-course Chef’s menu for dinner.
We gladly accept reservations for our Lunch Sets and Family-Style Chef’s Menu for Dinner. For a seamless dining experience, dinner reservations are designed around our Chef’s Menu, enjoyed by the entire table. For those who prefer à la carte, we welcome walk-in guests on a first-come, first-served basis.
We look forward to welcoming you at Maenam soon!
