White Lotus Vietnamese Restaurant

Gave it a 2nd chance after a really disappointing tasteless meal there a few years ago shortly after it opened. Tonight I ordered online and picked up. It was quick and ready as scheduled. Though I didn't eat in, the restaurant is neat and cozy. Easy to find parking. Staff were friendly and quick to respond. Food was mostly better than last time. We loved the spring rolls - as good as any we've had (good price for 4 rolls). Their Singapore style noodles was tasty with just the right amount of spice, considering I wasnt able to specify spice level. We were disappointed with the Tom Yum soup though. Extremely bland for a soup supposed to be spicy and flavourful. If there were chili's or lime juice in it we sure couldn't see or taste either. Good amount of vegetables and chicken. 2 lonely shrimp. Would not do over, even if we could specify spice level. Would we return or pick up there again? Yes, we just wouldn't get that soup. Will try satay soup next time. UPDATE: The restaurant responded to my review, asking for a 2nd chance and asking me to contact them. I did that because as I'd noted, there was good parts of our meal. They have offered us a free soup on our next order. We will absolutely try them again, as supporting your neighborhood, family businesses is important - for them, and for us! :)

Our family has had White Lotus’s supper for 4 five times now and they never disappoint! Best Vietnamese food in the city (and we’ve tried most over the years). The food is always hot, flavourful, and with perfectly sized portions. I can see this restaurant becoming our go-to take out place. To give everyone an idea of how great this place is: I almost never take the time to stop and write a review of a restaurant I like and yet here I am. Absolutely impressed and very happy to have tried this place out!

Walked in and ordered a dinner for 4 for takeout. The atmosphere was really nice and very clean. The order was ready for us very quickly for not calling ahead. The portions were a good size, we got 6 full plates out of everything in the end. The salad rolls and spring rolls were both delicious. The sweet and sour pork was very tasty. The ginger beef had just the right amount of zing. The chicken Fried rice has a lot of veggies in it, which I loved. And they generously gave us a free appetizer as a thanks for coming in. We came in on a whim, and I will certainly be back. Can't wait to try the noodle bowl.
