Love the meatball banh mi! There are lots of vietnamese restaurants in Burnaby, but I particularly enjoy the meatball banh mi (which you ahould definitely try if you haven't already) and the bun bo hue here. The service is always on point.

I have been a loyal customer of this restaurant since its early days, but I doubt I will be returning. The quality of the food has steadily declined over time, and during my recent visit, the service provided by a server reinforced my decision not to return. The owner's service remains excellent.

I went to White Lotus under the recommendation of a friend. Restaurant was decently clean for an asian establishment but cramped with inventory stashed everywhere. Staff was average as expected.
As I was running short on time, I decided to grab takeout. An iced coffee, banh mi and a spring roll/pork vermicelli. I ended up waiting over 20 minutes for a simple order.
On the drive home, I tried the iced coffee and it tasted like water. The banh mi flavour was ok but the bread was hard and a little stale. The vermicelli was by far the worse. It literally looked like someone’s doggy bag leftovers. For a $16 vermicelli, even post covid, I feel is unacceptable. Needless to say, I do not recommend at all.

Tiny little cafe with rock solid food. Had the vermicelli bowl with grilled pork and spring rolls - fantastic!
They sell their chilli oil in jars, too. Absolutely worth the visit.
I love this little gem. The food was literally so good. I also loved the service in that they took our order and brought our food and didn't hover over us at all. It was perfect. I saw people getting coffees to go and it's so cute. The people working care so much about the food quality, it's obvious.

I called on the phone and asked them to wrap my bahn MI since I buy it for lunch for me and my girl. They did it even tho it was rush hour, I feel like I didn't tip enough so here's a 5 star review. Whoever the lady was who was working on Wednesday you are a hero and also thank you very much.

I have been going to this place many years and recent renovation looks nice. Last time i got pho and was good and tasty. What i didn't like and reason i won't be coming there anytime soon is mainly because of chop sticks, forks and spoon turned upside so everybody is touching chopstick or spoon exactly where you take your food with and out into your mozth. Most restaurants have it either one time use or they will bring it to you - cleaned. When i see restaurants like this, it makes me to leave right away. Iťs just basic hygiene seing somebody coming from outside and touching all chopsticks is disgusting. For that reason i'm leaving 3 stars, otherwise i will leave 5.
Excellent food.
