Mr. T Bistro Viet

Vietnamese Bubble Tea Tea Juice Bar & Smoothies Sandwiches

(131)

Chomedey, Laval-des-Rapides

Review Summary

Overall, Mr. T Bistro Viet receives praise for flavorful dishes, generous portions, and a wide, varied selection of bubble teas, with friendly and welcoming staff mentioned by many. The banh mi is highlighted as excellent with homemade bread. The drinks, including smoothies and bubble tea, are described as delicious and diverse, though not the most authentic bubble tea. A few reviews point to a decline in quality over the past year after a packaging change that leaves drinks packed with ice and tasting like water, and tapioca quality is not the same. Service experiences range from fast and attentive to slower service with sandwiches arriving cold. The space is small with limited seating, but a small grocery section and shelves of interesting items add to the appeal. Overall, many would return for the variety and value, while others call for consistency and improved service.View restaurant profile
