Awesome food at reasonable prices

Not a far walk from the Royal Ontario Museum, a reasonable priced Asia food that is vegan! This place seems to be a gem and has many options. I got one of the platters and my partner got the pad Thai. Both very good. We also tried the Chef’s Special of Lentil Dumplings (Super good).

Favourite restaurant

Every dish and drink I’ve had from here has been super yummy. I usually get the pho, but I’ve tried their curries, banh mi, fresh rolls, dumplings… all are winners!

I believe the “beef bourguignon” is bo kho. Didn’t think I could find a vegan version of this anywhere, it’s absolutely delicious!

For coffee, all of them are delicious but the sea salt cafe is MY FAVE sweet coffee drink in town. For low sugar (and for most of my visits) I order an americano with oat milk. As a coffee snob, I approve😄

They used to sell egg but have removed it from all menu items. Paper menus reflect this but digital displays haven’t been updated yet

As with their first location in Kensington, the food is top tier. Unclear whether this Saigon Lotus is fully vegan or vegetarian though.

When this location opened, some of the dishes they served used real egg. Not sure why they made that choice when the original restaurant is fully vegan. With that said, I -think- they are fully vegan now, but I have yet to confirm with the staff. Either way, the food is so damn good. Makes me really happy that I don't have to travel across the city anymore for some Saigon Lotus grub.

Pros: Amazing food, Large seating area, Great location

Cons: Might not be fully vegan, Closed on Tuesdays for some reason, Menu is still being fleshed out / changes often
