Can't really say too much because ordering was done online but they were considerate and filled our glasses with water when we needed it. Food came out on time. ATMOSPHERE - 4/5. The area is well-decorated, cozy, but brightly lit. What I would expect from a nice Vietnamese restaurant. Clean and cute. VALUE - 5/5. Great price for the quality and quantity of food.

Finding restaurants that offer generous portions for the price you paid is challenging nowadays…read more With rising food costs and significantly higher restaurant prices, we try to find places where we can get our money's worth when dining out. We decided to try Be Leaf for lunch since we have appointment in the area. Stepping inside the restaurant, we're initially impressed with the layout. It has a sleek and bright ambiance which is uncommon to the dingy Vietnamese restaurants we normally go to. The place has a modern minimalist design with plenty of natural lights which creates an inviting and welcoming dining experience. They have lunch specials but since we came after 3 pm we can't avail of this offer. So we decided to order on the regular menu and tried the following: 1.House Special Pho - large, flavourful beef portions that comes with generous portion of tender rice noodles. The broth is very light yet at the same time so full of flavour. The soup is addictive and every spoonful leaves you wanting for more. 2.Rice Bowl with 2 veggie spring rolls, choice of salad (I chose Mango Shrimp) and a protein (Beef) - I really enjoyed this dish because of the beef. Aside from getting generous portion of the meat, it was sweet and savoury with loads of umami flavour. The beef was very tender and juicy and pairs well with the garlicky rice. The salad is refreshing and bursting with brightness. 3.Vietnamese Coffee (cold) - very strong but not overly sweet beverage. The boldness of the coffee mix with the sweetness of the condensed milk gives it a distinctive and delicious taste. They also give complimentary tea and service was fast and efficient. We were surprised we got our order in 5 mins despite the restaurant having lots of customers. Overall 10/10 dining experience. Can't wait to return back to this restaurant to explore the rest of the menu.

My rating is based on the drinks (Viet coffee and Thai tea), the banh it ram, and the crab spring…read moreroll. While the atmosphere felt like you were transported to the streets of Vietnam, the food unfortunately fell flat. The viral banh it ram isn't worth the money. The rice dumpling on top was extremely thick and lacking the chewiness. The filling was also sweet and one note. The fried base was a little bitter and may be due to the unfresh oil which also affected the crab spring roll. The pickled radish was also bitter and likely due to the preparation (e.g., not cutting enough of the skin of the radish off) The crab spring roll is also a pass on my books and for the price I would go to an actual restaurant to order it. The Viet coffee and Thai tea was decent but very sweet! I expect the high reviews you see on Google is because you get a free drink for posting a review... Overall, service was friendly and food came out quickly.

They offer Malaysian/singaporean dishes which is sometimes hard to find. The place was nice and clean and the staff was friendly.

The only thing was the noodles was more vermicelli than the udon. I think next time I'll order it I'll get it for udon only. Definitely coming back here for the bakkutteh dish my other favourite!

The place was far from crowded when we showed up, and we were told to check out the menus and place our order at the front. We decided to share the House Special Sandwich ("Pork loin marinated with house special recipe, tomato, fried egg, cabbage and peanut butter") and the Malaysian Street Style sandwich ("4oz ground beef with a taste of M'sian spice, tomato, fried egg, lettuce and sweet & spicy sauce"). (I also got a milk tea to drink, and it was really good. Very rich but not too sweet.) The sandwiches were both excellent. They were packed with flavor and the various components all worked really well together. The Malaysian Street Style did flirt with being just a little too sweet, but it was balanced out with the other components. Everything was decently priced, too. The bill, with tip, came out to around 25 bucks, which is great considering the quantity and caliber of food we were given.

Food: - My personal favourite include the Bun Rieu with side of soft shell crab. Tomato based soup, with minced pork, and shrimp. Soup hits if you're craving soup! Personally don't like the blood jello, so I take it out. But I often come back for this soup.!! Must try. - The dual smoked rib & braided rib! Wow. Tried this when the Bun Rieu wasn't available as it was recommended to me by the server. It was amazing. Tender, soft melt in your mouth beef. Comes with beef pho soup, compliments the beef exceptionally well. The soup broth is light, yet super flavourful when eaten with the beef. - The chicken wings!!! A must. It speaks for itself. Just try it. Perfect crunch. Packed with flavour. Service: friendly, attentive and food comes out fairly quick (depending on what you order) Ambiance: casual, chill, a great spot for good food. 5/5, it does not miss, hits every time over the last few years.

Oddly, they never cooked for me, or invited me for dinner (Hmmm...) so when I got invited to Nanyang Kopitiam Cafe in Willowdale, I happily accepted! Currently, they share the space with OnOff Toronto, a resto-bar that operates in the evening while Nanyang Kopitiam has the space up to late lunch/early dinner. I left all the ordering up to my friend who's been here before. Coincidentally, we met somebody there who lives in the same neighbourhood as her and went to the same high school as me so we invited him to join us. Here's what we had: · Signature Bak Kut Teh · Roti Canai · Wat Tan Hor · Pork Soup with Bitter Melon · Pork Noodle Soup with Seaweed · Iced Kopi · Iced Teh Everything tasted great! My favourite would be a tossup between the Signature Bak Kut Teh and Roti Canai. Tough choice. It was all good! They offer a variety of drinks and we had their Iced Kopi (Coffee) and Iced Teh (Tea). Both were refreshingly good! With good food and drinks, we would definitely come back. I'll have to try their Char Kuey Teow noodle dish next!

I was curious to give this place a try as I'm a Malaysian enjoying to try my fellow people dishes…read moreto see how it compares to others and at home. We tried this place maybe one or two weeks into their launch as they share this space with another bar restaurant that happens at night and they operate during the day time. The space is small and I wouldn't say its good to bring here with children as they lack the high chair. Here is what we ordered. Kaya Toast w/Soft Boiled Eggs Nasi Lemak Truffle Soup Noodles w/ Mixed Meat The kaya toast was actually quite small bite size portion and you would dip it into the runny soft boiled egg, but we didn't really enjoy it because its more watery and not really nice and runny jammy egg run texture. Truffle Soup Noodles w/ Mixed Meat - The yellow noodles served here was gummy like texture so maybe it was pre-boiled and then will use then and the texture became like this... The soup tasted like chicken broth like and not really truffle flavouring.. The meat had some wonton, fish ball, red sausage.. It was okay, but not very Malaysian taste imo... Nasi Lemak - Their signature dish...! It was with fried chicken where it felt overly fried, and the meat was not much to enjoy.. There was very minimal ikan billis (fried anchovies), but I can say the sambal sauce with onion was nicely flavoured... I think the dish itself was a bit inconsistent. While there, it appears the owners weren't consistent with their times of how long they wish to stay open or not as they would either run out of stuff, or they didn't feel like working which isn't exactly a good vibe for customers... They'd say they run out of things, but possibly the cook just didn't want to prepare more as it'll take time... Overall, I can see now they have some more dishes to try that weren't on the menu originally, so possibly there may be improvements... Our go to Malaysian place is still downtown Canteen as we find they have best taste for Nasi Lemak and Chow Kuay Teow among other dishes as well...Pricing is less and the quality and taste is authentic! Possibly we may give this place another try down the road...

W the service was nice and was checking in on us throughout dinner. I got the Oh Noh Khowsuey with chicken and my friend got the pad Thai with beef. As you can see from the photos, the serving sizes were very large. The Khowsuey was delicious! You could taste the coconut curry and the rice noodles, came with many toppings. My dish was $28 and the pad Thai was around $22 with the meat add on. Overall it's a cute and peaceful place to eat in the area. The food didn't blow me away, but it had great flavours.

The japchae flavours work well especially since the fish stew didn't come with rice so the japchae was a good side for it. The spicy fish stew did pack some heat!!

Sat there for a few hours catching up with a friend. Very comfortable. And service was welcoming. We didn't feel rushed at all.
