When we first walked by, we were unsure whether they were open since they were doing some renovations with the ceiling. Luckily they were fully open and ready to serve some tasty vegan Viet dishes. We split a bowl of pho which had the exact spices and herbs that would normally go into making a traditional broth. I loved the tanginess and assortment of flavors all in one hearty bowl of noodles with plenty of mock meats. Being in Canada, we also ordered their poutine with mock meat and gravy. These were okay and I probably shouldn't have expected greatness at a Viet spot, but still fun to try on the side. Besides the construction happening, service here was really nice and we enjoyed our lunch visit for sure.

The hot and spicy soup with tofu and shrimp was the perfect companion to our meal, and the staff was very friendly, offering great service throughout our visit.

We recently reminisced about going to Bao Sandwich Bar for lunch between interviews at the University of Waterloo. I had mentioned to him that it had a second location in Mississauga, roughly a fifteen-minute drive from our workplace. He said that when we were both in the office, he'd only want to go there for lunch with me. It's nice that he trusts my judgment when it comes to eateries. I also believe that he likes my company. A couple of Wednesdays ago, he asked what I was doing for lunch. I normally hit Treats nearby. He wasn't feeling it. I said that we could go here and provided some details, including its online menu and such. I also asked him if he had any meetings. I'm that type of a planner, down to the departure time. He was game. I said that we should leave at 11:15 am. The place opens at 11:30 am. He had a meeting at 1 pm. I wanted a leisurely, unrushed lunch. Done! I drove us over there. With my lead foot, it was more like thirteen minutes, without hitting any highway. Like the Bao place in Waterloo, this one is also located on a lower level of a plaza, with a tall building at the top of this hill. I parked in front of the eatery. We walked in. We were the first customers. It looks like the place kept some of the seating from the previous business that occupied the place. The upholstery looked shabby. Otherwise, the rest of the eatery was spruced up. I got a combo consisting of these items: - Crackle belly bao - Korean garlic chicken bao - Purple flower lemonade - Dynasty duck poutine My manager got the following items: - Dynasty duck bao - Thai yum pork bao - House salad - Thai tea I took a star away because I wasn't expecting my order to be $40! It was okay for the large portion of dynastic duck poutine that I got. It was rather steep. You won't see me eating here every day. I split the poutine with my manager, so it was okay. I paid with a credit card. The transaction was smooth. It didn't take long for our food to be ready. The woman who had taken our orders was nice to bring the food to our table. I have always loved the crackle belly bao. It was equally as delicious here as it was in Waterloo. The pork belly was tasty and perfectly seasoned. The bao was nice and malleable. The veggies provided a nice contrast. I loved it. I tried the Korean garlic chicken bao. It was heavenly. The sauce was spicy and garlicky. The chicken had a crispy exterior and was juicy inside. It's nice having another decent bao to call my favourite. The purple flower lemonade was delicious. I normally don't like sweet lemonade. This version had a touch of sweetness that I enjoyed. This drink's colour was also pretty to look at. My manager enjoyed his food. He oddly doesn't like green vegetables, so I saw him pick out the cilantro and green onions. He felt that the sauces were mixed up. His Thai yum pork bao wasn't spicy. The dynasty duck that he has had in the past was oddly spicy. We had a baseline of the dynasty duck poutine that wasn't spicy to compare. Even with the sauce mix-up, he still enjoyed everything. His side salad had a bit of a spice kick, so he was happy. I loved eating here. It was a nice, casual lunch with yummy food. I wish that it were cheaper. However, the quality was excellent that I'm okay shelling out for it as someone who likely won't be dropping by weekly. (67)

Our favourite dish was the Signature Shrimp Cakes. The portion was surprisingly large, packed with shrimp, and perfectly crispy on the outside. The Moo Ping was also excellent--tender charcoal-grilled pork skewers with very little fat and a delicious tangy dipping sauce. We also enjoyed the Tom Saap Hotpot with beef tendon, which the owner shared is based on a family recipe from their restaurant in Thailand. It was flavourful, comforting, and full of authentic Thai flavours. The Kai Tod Crispy Chicken Fried Rice was another standout, and we finished the meal with a refreshing Mango Sticky Rice dessert. As parents, we appreciated that they have high chairs available, vegetarian options on the menu, and plenty of free parking nearby. The location is also surrounded by retail stores, making it easy to combine a meal with a shopping trip. Overall, a great spot for authentic Thai food, generous portions, and a family-friendly dining experience. We would happily return.

They included plenty of rice noodles. The toppings could've been more generous. I only got one sprig of mint and I could barely find the green onions or cilantro, literally. Plenty of bean sprouts, tho. The included hot sauce is delicious. The vegetable spring rolls were ok..I wish they had more veggie filling, they were pretty empty. At $6 for three, I don't think they're worth $2 each. All in all, it was a pretty good experience. We'll probably try more of the menu at some point.
