We’re not in the business of giving mad reviews, if anything we scope out amazing places and share them with our followers. We understand that Mi Bao has their niche and clients and we wish them continued success. That being said, our visit was a very disappointing experience, $50 plus dollars for two sandwiches and a matcha latte. The breakfast banh mi was ok, put together nicely but didn’t really stand out. And the Griot stood out for all the wrong reasons, a) looked nothing like the photo (check our photo - and perhaps my fault for thinking it would actually look like that on the plate…) b) the meat barely filled the sandwich, there were just a few pieces inside. C) it tasted more like jerk rather than delicious tender meat. For the same price we paid, we can point out so many other delicious sandwich places in a walkable radius. If you’re going to charge big boy prices then you have to bring the value. This place did not. Again continued success for Mi Bao.

We bought a half litre of passion fruit sorbet and it was phenomenal. Absolutely delicious and a terrific combination of sweetness and tangineas

I paid too much for the breakfast croissant ($11.95). It was over-grilled, and bacon wasn’t even included, it’s an extra $2. Honestly, for $12, bacon should come standard.
On the other hand, the strawberry matcha was really good I’d happily pay $7 for it again.
That’s why I gave 3 stars. Maybe I should’ve tried the breakfast banh mi instead.
STAY AWAY from the breakfast croissants you’ll be disappointed.
Atmosphere they have it on point, they have there branding right.

I got a tofu mi bao, it was super juicy and flavourful. Sweet and salty. I would have loved a shrimp option since I only eat halal but this was really good. The atmosphere and decoration was really nice too

We’re visiting MTL from Vancouver. We’ve had some amazing meals here during our stay. Mi Boa has awesome sandwiches and coffee. My whole family enjoyed.
Very cute place, great service. Delicious looking pastries made in house, great banh mi, the tofu is actually crispy. Also tried egg coffee and was pleasantly surprised :)

Paid 24$ for one unauthentic Vietnamese coffee (not drip coffee but watered down espresso) and one chicken banh mi. The pickled veggies in banh mi were fresh though. Pretty underwhelming experience

Chicken Bahn mi is 40% cartilage. The pickled vegetables are great, but that's the only positive thing about that whole sandwich experience. Long, thin, and stringy cilantro stalks are the only other vegetables in the sandwich. The bread is pretty thick and not so pleasant to chew.
The wonton soup is not inedible. The broth is comforting... but the wontons taste like wet dog. The soup itself only has sparse vegetables, with peppered in green onion slices and salad leaves. Yes, salad leaves, you heard that right. It's really just a sad excuse of a soup.
For seating options, you either have 3 tables, 2 steps away from the cash register, seating by the windows (taken when we came in), or a 'pit' with plenty of seats. It was uncomfortable to sit at. The table is tiny and supported by milk crates?? It kept moving and spinning and really is a terrible setup for a seating area. It's 'aesthetic' for the price of functionality, which irritates me to no end. It just looks quickly put together with clients as an afterthought.
The Vietnamese coffee is good. All of that in a trio was 35$, AKA not worth it for something of this quality!

cute ambiance and decor, very trendy. the waitress/cashier/barista was very nice and i felt bad for her as she seemed to be running around everywhere and doing everything. we ordered the combo box (chicken bahn mi and wonton soup and viet coffee) our bahn mi was 50% cartilage and the best part was just eating the bread and pickled veg. lacking sauce and just kind of disjointed. the wontons in the soup were completely tasteless but the broth was ok. nothing crazy tho. for the price, i would go somewhere else sadly
Vegetarian options: tofu options available

I visited Mi Bao Café near the CHUM and ordered a small matcha latte. I found it very expensive at $9, not including tip. For that price, I expected much better quality; the taste was quite ordinary, like what you'd get at any other café. If I'm going to pay $9, I'd honestly prefer Starbucks' matcha. The place is colorful, and the service was good, but I definitely wouldn’t recommend it due to the high prices. They serve very ordinary dishes and drinks at an excessive price
