Awards and Recognition for Sula Indian Restaurant in Vancouver
We have been cooking for Vancouver since 2010, and in that time the city has been generous to us. What follows is the whole record, the years we won and the years we came second, because both are honest.
The one we are proudest of is the Georgia Straight Golden Plates in 2025, when readers put us first for Indian food in Vancouver. In 2026 we took second. Tripadvisor has recognised us every year the award has run since 2014.
