Nice vegan sandwiches - Edit
Friendly and knowledgeable service. Vegan options clearly labeled. Banh Mi was tasty, perfectly toasted and right amount of spice! Vietnamese iced coffee with coconut cream just tasted like watery iced coffee so I would skip that.

Great spring rolls! - Edit
I love the spring rolls here and definitely recommend them! However, I’ve tried a few vegan meals from here and while they’re good, they’re not great. They could definitely have more flavour. Would also recommend asking for extra sauce with the bowl!

Uh, YUM! - Edit
UPDATE: They have housemade vegan mayo now :)
Read moreAlso my new fave is the buddah tofu banh mi sandwich!
Fresh and flavourful!
There is something for everyone here. Before becoming vegan I used to love the lemon chicken banh mi sandwich but now I'm obsessed with the spring roll rice noodle bowl! I always add an extra spring roll to my meal to add a little more substance to it. I also find the noodles to be quite bland, but I love mixing hoisin, soya sauce and sriracha on there to jazz it up!
Very clean and the staff are nice!
I would call myself a regular!
Happy Eating! xx

Yummy! - Edit
Ordered the Buddha noodle bowl (tofu, sprouts, carrots, cucumber, veggie spring roll, rice noodles), with a peach bubble tea.

Right across the street from the Public Gardens, which is a perfect place to take the food to enjoy on a summer day.
Pros: Convenient location , Fresh products, Clean and comfortable restaurant

Vegan on the go - Edit
Cute little popup type place. Great for on the go. They offer quite a few options that are naturally vegan or can be made vegan. I got the Buddha bowl is naturally vegan. It has fresh bean sprouts, rice noodles, cucumber, carrots, parsley, tofu and a spring roll cut up. They provide 3 sauces with it, for a nice diverse taste. It was delicious, fresh and perfect for a hot summer day. Service was prompt and great. They answers my questions regarding vegan options with ease. The organic mint lemonade was delicious as well! Definitely a great little spot.

Worth a visit if you are in the area - Edit
Hours: Mon - Fri 11:30 am to 8 pm; Sat and Sun 11 to 7. My family ate here twice during a recent trip to Halifax. The restaurant is located across from the Public Gardens, just up the road from the Citadel. There are a few seats indoors, and a couple of tables and chairs outside. The restaurant specializes in Vietnamese sandwiches made on fresh French bread and include a variety of vegetable toppings, including shredded carrots, daikon and hot peppers. We sampled both of the vegetarian sandwiches--the Buddha and the Veggie Meatball. The Buddha contains grilled marinated tofu and it was quite tasty. The standard sauce is mayo-based and does contain eggs, but there are other sauce options available. The veggie meatball sandwich contains homemade vegan tvp meatballs. These are very small meatballs that are marinated and not covered in tomato sauce. My children enjoyed the meatballs immensely and picked them out of the sandwich, leaving the delicious bread behind.

Pros: tasty sandwiches, quick, in an area without a lot of options
Cons: only two sandwiches
