It’s Asian Fusion with an Indian twist. Green Lettuce is a popular destination for those who love their Chinese dishes with a lot of spicy flavour! While its original location is in Vancouver, Green Lettuce opened up a second location in Surrey back in 2003, with a separate menu with endless options for vegetarians and carnivores alike.

Small and cozy, cheap prices and big portions – what more could you ask for? Taqueria Jalisco is the joint for Mexican food in Surrey serving residents at two locations at Grosvenor Road and Industrial Road. While Taqueria looks unassuming as you pass by it, this hole-in-the-wall is a hidden gem.
