Lee Bros Winery is one of the best korean restaurants in Vancouver for date night, especially if you want a strong option in Vancouver.

Editorial review•May 5, 2026

Vanmak — the bar and snack shop that Lee Bros Winery, a decade-plus makgeolli supplier to Metro Vancouver restaurants, finally opened under its own roof — is a genuinely specific proposition: a Chinatown spot where the drink is the concept, not an afterthought. Master Distiller Yoo's family has been fermenting fresh, unpasteurized makgeolli without aspartame and distributing it to restaurants across the region for years; Vanmak is where you go to drink it at the source, alongside the bar snacks that Korean rice wine has always been meant to accompany. If you're coming for a conventional sit-down Korean dinner, recalibrate. If you're coming to understand what makgeolli tastes like when it's made by people who have staked a decade on the craft — including a genuinely unusual slushy format — this is where Vancouver currently does that. The food menu is intentional and short, which is exactly right for the concept. Tteokbokki ($13.99) — rice cakes in sweet-spicy red chili sauce with savory fish cake — is the Korean street food pairing that has accompanied makgeolli for generations, and the version here sits alongside the wine rather than competing with it. Kimbap at $7.99 keeps things accessible and light. The Friday/Saturday Happy Combo ($39.99 dine-in) is the move if you're going with someone: two rice wine slushies, tteokbokki, fish cake soup, pork hock, and spicy pork hock in one package. At that price point, for that spread, the value proposition is hard to argue with. The space itself is small — half retail convenience store, half dine-in with wooden benches and a few chairs at the back — which means the atmosphere is less "bar night out" and more "drinks with intention." The practical reality of Vanmak: the Happy Combo is Friday and Saturday only, so plan accordingly if that's your target. The space is compact enough that showing up early or on a weeknight gets you the full, unhurried experience with the makgeolli slushies. The retail half of the shop means you can leave with a bottle of the same unpasteurized makgeolli that Vancouver restaurants have been quietly pouring for years. Do that.
