The entrance…read moretakes you to the Omni Thai restaurant and once you enter you turn the left dining area for this vegetarian/vegan restaurant. The inside is quite nice - cozy but clean and tidy. The service was very good. Not only did we get the usual complimentary hot green tea but also a new cold drink that I can't remember (plum?). It was a bit sweet for us. The staff wanted some feedback and we provided. We had a Vegan Mixed Veggies and Mushroom Congee - it was good. Good flavour and hit the spot. It is a comfort food for us and it did its job. Not as good as our gold standard elsewhere. But definitely up there. Sizzling Crispy Rice with stir fried veggies - now this dish just set a gold standard. IMHO a must have at this restaurant. The rice crispy and came out sizzling. The crispiness comes after deep frying the rice to perfection. Not sure how it was seasoned but it was just amazing. No spice as such but oh my, it tasted very good. Coming back just for this dish's and to try many more.

I've heard some conflicting reviews about this well-known vegan restaurant, but I'm quite…read moreimpressed! I feel that the price point is actually very reasonable given the portions and quality of ingredients. A disclaimer that I've only tried their noodle dishes and not the sushi (I do like my seafood haha), but these are fantastic - rich in flavour without being overwhelmed with salt and sugar (the typical fallbacks for vegan food). Highly recommend the truffle fried rice and the Singapore noodles! The fact that the food seems to be relatively healthy (at least psychologically...) is of course a plus as well. The interior is fairly upscale, the dim lighting and elegant decor contributing to a muted but lovely ambiance. I do love a place that allows you to have a conversation at normal volumes! Service is always excellent without fail, the staff is helpful but not overbearing. A must for anyone who's vegan, vegan-curious, or simply searching for some great food in beautiful surroundings!

Ordered the pad thai and it's on the more tart side. Missing umami, could use a but more salt.

Good price, large portions on mains, vegan.

A friend introduced me to Saigon Lotus, a vegetarian Vietnamese spot in Chinatown that I probably…read morewouldn't have noticed on my own. It's very quaint and pretty standard for the area, nothing flashy, just a simple neighbourhood restaurant. We went on a Friday around 11:30 AM and were the only table there, which made for a quiet and relaxed lunch. We ordered the bún bò Huế and the pad thai. Both were fine, but nothing particularly memorable. They did the job, but neither dish really stood out enough to make me crave a return visit specifically for them. That said, this is very much a no-fuss kind of place. Prices were on the more affordable side, around $15 per dish, which is always appreciated in Toronto. The atmosphere is casual, the service was straightforward, and the food came out without much of a wait. Overall, it probably wouldn't become my go-to spot, but as a vegetarian-friendly option in the area, it's a solid and easy choice if you're nearby and looking for something simple.

It has a clean, almost cafeteria feel which doesn't do a lot for the experience but at least provides confidence in the food quality. Service is friendly and professional, however it doesn't offer table ordering so you order at the counter and the food to your table. They advertise "Wheatless and Meatless" so as well a gluten free baked goods they offer many alternatives to popular brunch staples like bacon and eggs. I had the Breakfast Bowl, a beautiful medley of guacamole, pico de gallo, sweet potato, roasted mushroom, organic kale, black beans and tofu eggs. It was delicious. Have to admit, not exactly sunny side up eggs over a couple of slices of bacon, but it did taste great and I actually felt good afterwards. My daughter had the avocado toast which was served on a seed and oat toast. Spectacular dish, really tasty and gorgeous! I'm a black tea drinker and an added bonus is that they serve one of the best I've had (other than in my own kitchen). Will definitely be back, and they cater so next time you need to serve a lot of vegetarian celiacs you'll know who to call!

Since everything was plant-based, it made it hard deciding what we'd order. We ultimately went with the First Canadian Bowl ($15) with tempeh, quinoa, grains, greens, and topped with this tangy dijon mustard dressing that really elevated the bowl. The bowl was absolutely delicious and it came with such large portions that we took half back home. On the way out, we also snagged one of their brownies which made for a delectable, chocolatey snack. Staff were super friendly and very easy on the eyes too haha.
