The dishes we ordered at Sula were the best Indian food we have ever tasted. Outstanding! The restaurant provides a modern vibe with excellent service. My wife and I are both retired and were visiting Vancouver for the Valentine Day weekend. We really enjoyed the restaurant and food. We will definitely be back.

Great food and atmosphere. The wine prices could use an adjustment, quite high prices by the glass.

A sublime meal with appropriate wine pairings (thank you again, Jill). I can not fault any aspect of the restaurant; it’s one of my favourites. My one minor complaint was that the scent worn by one of the servers was a little too generously applied and was wafting towards us as she moved around.
