This vegan restaurant is unbelievable. The food is truly amazing & taste very very good. There isn't a single bad dish & the owner Anna is super nice & friendly. A definite repeat
Amazing restaurant. We were 75% meat eater & we did not feel like we were eating vegan food. It was really amazing. The service was great. The servers gave great recommendations & allowed us to stay & talk even though they were closing. Would recommend!

Always amazing food, drinks & service! It's very hard not to order everything in the menu! Tried the house-made vegan chocolate cake & it was incredible!
My favorite vegan restaurant in Montreal. The food is amazing & the staff is very friendly. Every dish I had so far was excellent. A special mention to the crispy vegan duck (ped palo) that is a real delight.
The best vegan restaurant in the city by far! Amazing food, amazing service Sheryl was very attentive, knowledgeable & incredibly considerate of my food allergy(peanuts). This place is a must try in the city.

Plats vegan délicieux ! J'y suis allée à l'occasion de mon anniversaire & c'était un diner très réussi. Le service est impeccable, la salle est juste un tout petit peu bruyante. J'ai choisi le menu "table d'hôte" pour découvrir un peu de tout. La qualité est excellente, les plats étaient bien relevés. J'y retournerai avec plaisir :)

The character of this place is minimal yet pretty with a cozy atmosphere & amazing food! We tried Pad thai, Veg Fried Rice, Dumplings with Peanut sauce & Chicken Skewer & all four dishes were scrumptious. Can't recommend enough if you are into vegan & thai.
PS: The bar seats were not very comfortable to sit but the food made up for it!
Great service & so many options for food!!! You may get overwhelmed but I'm sure everything is delicious, you can't go wrong. The vegan duck was delicious. If you want to finish off with dessert, I recommend the fried banana 🍌🍌🍌
We love the restaurant & have been there several times. The food & the service are just excellent, there is no bad food choice because everything is delicious! That time we decided to take the menu (55$/person) & I honestly felt disappointed. I think it is very overpriced for the appetizers they give you (a small salad & just a tiny bite of the rest of them, just one dumpling, not even half a summer roll, a spoon of a vegan duck salad). So for this I don't think it's worth taking the menu. I would recommend either lowering the price (35-40$ seems reasonable) or giving a bigger quantity on the appetizers (really, the size was pretty ridiculous...). We will come back for sure, but we won't repeat the menu!
