Disappointing

While the service was good, considering its just two people, the food didn't measure up for me.

As I entered the restaurant I was warmly greeted by a woman wearing no shoes, and then aggressively told what i should order.

She was pushing the Peking duck and the lobster as the best sellers and kept saying "try both, try both". It was so rushed and uncomfortable that my dining partner wanted rice and we some how ended up with two noodle dishes.

We ordered three appetizers which came out one at a time and with one main course in between. The crispy tofu was last to arrive as we were almost done our mains.

The spring rolls were frozen solid in the middle. The young girl was very apologetic.

What concerned me most was we had obviously touched the spring rolls to know that they were frozen. The exact same food was then thrown back into the deep fryer and returned to use almost burnt on the open ends.

The Peking duck was tasty and the complimentary bottled water was a nice touch.

I don't like writing bad reviews but for me it missed the mark in more than one way.

Pros: Young girl serving was very pleasant

Cons: Food came out frozen

Not as good as I hoped

We went twice, honestly it just was not that good. It’s just one woman running it, so I feel a bit bad saying that, but really it did not stand out to me.

Excellent Vietnamese food

Absolutely delicious food. Exceptionally friendly service.

I have celiac and they were very helpful around ensuring everything was gluten-free. They showed me the bottles of all the sauces they used to verify no wheat in any of their soy-based sauces. They gave extra tofu to replace the gluten-based vege meats.

Pros: Excellent food, Friendly service, Able to accommodate celiac/ gluten intolerance

Gem

This is hidden gem spot !
Small restaurant but cozy. Food was great and good service. We got bbh, king mushrooms, pad, banh mi. All was tasty ! Will be back soon with family. Vicky is the owner and operator (in and out for everything). May she has magic 😃. She looks very young but has many years experience for making vegan food at buddha temple in Viet Nam. When she turned 15 years old she could make food for 100 people who extended retreatment at the temple. That was amazing for me.
High recommendation bún Bo Hue, pho, spring roll coffee, and hu tieu xao, banh mi.

Pros: Bun Bo hue, Banh mi, Pad

Very disappointing

Limited in terms of ambience. Ordered pho and asked for the fake meat to be replaced with tofu but my dish came out with one fake meat. Some difficulty ordering in English. The fried mushroom appetizer was quite tasty but the rest of the meal was disappointing

A quaint corner with Good Pho for us and a pretty good menu.

It's easy to find a few places with some Vegan options but one place with this many? Very hard. The portions are healthy but you do really need to try many to get a "Favourites List" going.

Pros: Pho (Mock Beef and Rice Noodle Soup), Fried Rice Noodles with Vegetables and Mock Meat.

Cons: Small Mall with limited parking., Not the easiest place to find/main sign to see.

Tasty!

This is the first restaurant I’ve been to that serves mock beef in their pho. It was great! The owner was very kind and attentive. Very fairly priced - in fact the owner mentioned not changing prices since opening in 2021, despite inflation. I’m impressed!

Pros: Huge menu , Good food, Good service

Fantastic!

We stumbled upon this tiny restaurant with big flavours. Everything we ordered was delicious. Vicky, one of the owners, was super attentive and very kind.
There is such a big selection that it was hard to choose but we’ll be going back to try the rest of the menu.
Reasonably priced and well worth the drive from wherever you are.

Pros: Delicious , Great all-vegan selection , Excellent service
