A totally unexpected surprise…read more We were hankering for meatless/less heavy, and stumbled upon this charming Vietnamese restaurant. A tiny, family business who provide a quiet, serene and pleasant dining experience. NO MUSIC. BONUS! Spouse had the "bun bo Hue" and myself the "crab and fish maw". Hubby said that the taste and texture of the seitan (glutens) were on point. The "fish maw" in my crab soup had a perfect fish maw texture! We polished both off our dishes in record time and felt good about what we ate. I'm not a vegan but sometimes you just want something light and sustaining. HIGHLY recommend this restaurant. The owners/staff are nice to their customers.

Sorry, But wasn't a…read morefan. Ordered crispy tofu, was 10$ for a half block tofu deep fried. No garnish or sauce. The pho. Had pieces of ginger in it, did not come with basil on the side. Tofu wasn't like that good soft tofu that comes with other places. Spring rolls were not great. Everything was just deep fried. Vegan have money so I make vegan food. That's the vibe

The vegetarian choices served at The Buddhist Vegetarian Kitchen are always delicious…read more They are known for specialty Buddhist vegetarian meals and have been in the community for years. We ordered a few things and were very impressed with how well they were made. Served hot, our selections were like works of art. #16 - Bean Curd with Mixed Vegetables - plentiful amount of different types of veggies. # 5 - Stuffed Bean Curd Skin * - always delicious. # 65 - Rice Noodle w Vegetarian Chicken & Vegetable - came with generous giant pieces of mock chicken. Excellent vegetarian dishes.

My fav is their mixed veg platter. It is yummy…read more Service is fine. Like most Chinese restaurants. Ambiance is dated.

Found another wonderful vegan place to try with my friend!…read moreWe were extremely pleased with the quality of the food from the kitchen and it did not smell like oil in there at all. Service was great and lady was really polite. The mock pork was out of this world and I would highly recommend to try that. The mock chicken was ok. It was bland in comparison to the pork

We were starving and this was one of the vegan places still open. We were around one hour before…read moreclosing. There was nobody dining in but the staff was very welcoming. The place was not the cleanest and all the condiments were sticky. We were hungry and I was glad to see vegan Vietnamese restaurant so we decided to stay. We ordered papaya salad, vermicelli noodles with vegan pork and banh mi. We got a free cold tea which was a nice touch. The food came pretty quickly. The Banh Mi was small and for me was lacking in ingredients. I was eating mostly bread, just a small amount of meat and veggies were inside. Papaya salad was nothing I would expect. Did not like the sauce and the crushed peanuts on top were stale. The best was the vermicelli bowl. It was flavorful and fresh. The only thing is I would love to have more "meat". Not sure if they were trying to rush with the food before closing but I was a little disappointed with the taste. I would give them a second chance, maybe I just ordered wrong items.

Saw many good online reviews so decided to give it a try. The restaurant is modern with nice decor…read more It was only half full on a Friday night. They have a great menu and drink list with many selections. We ordered tandoori chicken, garlic naan and chicken safioni biryani. The chicken biryani was served with crushed nuts, deep fried garlic and fresh coriander on top, it's so fragrant and the ingredients were so fresh; both garlic naan and tandoori chicken were also tasty. I just commented that the biryani was a bit salty, when I wanted to take home the leftover biryani, the server immediately offered to make a fresh one, I couldn't believe such generosity although I didn't take the offer. The overall dining experience has been so pleasant, we'll always come back!

We ordered chole bhature, chicken kadai, 2 mango lassi, and 2 naans and the total came up to about…read more$73. It's very expensive for what you're getting. The chick peas in the chole bhature were still hard, the chicken had spices that weren't ground properly so there were very hard pieces (we thought there was a rock in our food!). We told the server and he didn't seem to care and just said it's a spice. We are South Asian and found this place to be a rip off especially for quality of food for the price. Won't return again.

Another amazing time here, we made reservations and got seated right away, the owner was serving us…read moreand was nice. The parking is pretty bad but we were able to find a spot after a few mins. The food was phenomenal again but the pizza this time had puddles of oil which was taking away from the taste a bit. The vegan meatball sliders were exceptional and my bf absolutely loved them. The fries were fine, I just didn't like the cook on them but the balsamic glaze and vegan parm on it was great. I recommend this place 10000% for anyone with sophisticated tastebuds.

Service is a hit or miss, while all the staff are polite and friendly, sometimes it's hard to get their attention, especially when things start to pick up. The restaurant is not big, but around lunch time gets pretty busy. It's a comfortable space, nothing fancy. We ordered the pad see ew and khao soi. Pad see ew was good, had nice flavours. Though it didnt come with the traditional large wide noodles. The khao soi was good as well, though again, had mixed canto fried noodles as the topping. Overall a good place to grab a quick bite.

Relatives brought me here while I was visiting Toronto the other week -…read more Small shared parking lot here - but most places were closed at dinner time, so parking was plentiful - restaurant was kind of dim , and lacked lighting in my opinion. Service was very quick and we were seated right away on a weekday night - wasn't busy at all - servers were friendly and made suggestions on what to order. The red chick curry was average at best, found the chicken on the dryer side of things. Pad Thai was also pretty average to me , nothing really stood out. Had Tom Yum soup as well, that was pretty tasty and had a nice spice kick to it (not pictured - as I forgot) Pricing and portions seemed fair - not sure if this was the best Thai in Toronto area, but I definitely have some better go to's in Vancouver. Overall, it's worth a try - however, I'd probably try something else next time, since I'm not local.

First time here. It's a cozy vegetarian Chinese restaurant. Menu is clearly labeled. Plenty of…read moreoptions to satisfy all tastes. From staple Asian entrees to sandwiches, salads, and flatbreads. I decided to order the sweet & sour pork. Really delicious. I strongly recommend. $10.99 Daily specials. Imitation meats are Beyond or Omni. Reasonable prices. Bring cash for 5% discount. Friendly service. Clean and well maintained. Im surely coming back.

Have tried a number of items here. Mind you, Im neither vegan nor vegetarian but the food here…read morecould satisfy even the pickiest meat eaters. The portion sizes are great. The textures are surprising. The food is delicious. There is a "salmon" that looks and feels just like sashimi down to the white stripes that go along each cut. They serve this on a massive kale salad with chickpeas, piles of thin carrots and a rich tahini dressing. Ive also had the "chicken". The breading is so tasty and crispy. When dipped in the sauce, could really fool you into thinking its chicken. Also have tried the mac and cheese and fried rice. Their drinks/ smoothies are delivious too. I recommend the avocado. Wasnt a fan of the bbq pork buns(dry and not enough filling). I removed 1 star for the customer service. Ive dined here at least 3 times and each time, minimal enthusiasm/elaborating when inquiring more about the menu items.

Excellent service, good food, nice ambiance! We went on a weekend for late lunch. The restaurant is…read moretastefully decorated, spacious and nice seating arrangements. The servers (yes, multiple servers attended us) were wonderful and caring. The menu offers quite large selections. We had the 5 feet Dosa. It was super huge, crispy and nicely fried to perfect golden brown. Though bit oily, but tasty (I guess to get the crisp it needed the extra oil). It would be great if options were available for butter or ghee instead of oil. Overall, a great place for good dining at reasonable prices. Also parking is convenient at the restaurant's private lot.

We have been wanting to try this place for quite a while. It was worth all the wait…read more We did not have a long wait on a Friday evening ans the service was quick as well. The decor is beautifully done. We tried salt and pepper babycorn, Pudina paneer tikka, bharwan mushroom, tomato soup for appetizers. All hit the spot! I can't wait to try the other options next time. We tried the paneer shashlik sizzler, punjabi by nature sizzler, and silk route sizzler. These are definitely a bang for the buck and uber delicious. We also tried methi chaman and veg kohlapuri. These were good but nothing to write home about. I will definitely be back to try the chai thali.
