Great Southeast Asian fast casual option just north of Eaton Centre! I frequently eat fast casual, and I like to try new, local options—rather than the major national and local international chains—when I can. The fresh, flavourful food and fast, friendly service will have me coming back!

I ordered from here a couple of times and overall its good food!! Its healthy (with the 2 protein options & unlimited end toppings) and filling. Its semi-expensive for the portion I received (though it might just be me), but the atmosphere is a good place to study & do work. Its right near the TMU SLC building, so thats a plus!!

If its still happening, I 100% recommend the $8 plus tax street frites bundle with drink and brownie bite. I think its a limited time offer for the first month of school, but the taste of the frites was so mouthwatering alongside the drink (I order the thai iced tea).

I have been working in downtown for almost two years, and I recently discovered this place. As a shrimp lover, I had a great dining experience here. The food was fresh and delicious, and I want to give a special shoutout to my server, Roysten. He was very interactive, provided great recommendations, and made sure to ask about my spice preference and any allergies. Since I mentioned my love for shrimp, he suggested trying the torpedo shrimp, which was crispy and flavorful. I truly appreciated the attention to detail and will definitely be coming back!

Never have had a dull experience every time I stop by. Staff are friendly and attentive to detail, knowing the ins and outs of every dish on the menu! Specifically am a fan of the pad Thai as well as the build your box.

This Basil Box has really caring staff and great attention to your food preparation. We appreciate that they offer a few more than the Eaton Centre food court's Basil Box. Worth coming over to this location instead!

The staff are very accommodating and gives great recommendations. They served another customer that has a dietary concern and flagged any available options they could eat. They also offered customizing to their preference and suggested great alternatives. Good healthy choices!

They have a lot of good custom order option/set up so that you can mix and match. This location offers additional Satay Seasoned Fried Egg (for additional cost) and #4 Sauce option of Saigon Curry which is not common. We usually get the Chili Lime Shrimp which is pretty spicy and delicious! This location offers sautéed eggplant and charred sweet potatoes which is great as well. Really good value and carries well!
