King Taps First Canadian Place

What an interesting unassuming spot! I came in with no expectations and ordered a bunch of stuff: - Dim sum quartet: So yummy! Lots of filling, well cooked, pretty good - Chicken and Shrimp Bah Me Hang: It’s sorta like pad thai, but the noodle’s texture was so good. Like angel hair pasta but more chewy and so delicious. I couldn’t stop eating 🤤 - Ping Gai: The chicken was so juicy and well grilled. Great seasoning. The dipping sauce was light but brought the whole meal together. A really delicious dish! This spot is great, service was fast and the food is delicious! They also have plenty of vegetarian options which i think is also wonderful 🙂

I’ve been here twice now and I absolutely love everything. The food is amazing. I tried the arugula salad and the kale salad with chicken and they were both really good. The kale salad is my favourite. The portions are generous and the servers are really nice. The place is very cozy and it truly feels like you are visiting your grandma’s place for food. I will be coming back to try other items on the menu.

A tried and true Toronto establishment! If you’re looking for a place that captures the charm and history of Queen Street West, with good food, relaxed vibes, and a bit of soul Queen Mother Cafe is a gem worth visiting. Nestled in a 165-year-old building since, it feels like a comfortable “home away from home”. The food strikes a great balance between comforting regular dishes and bold Southeast Asian flavours, it has something for everyone, and the portions are beyond generous (the ping gai for example, will feed two). Highly recommend the pad Thai, ping gai, dumplings and samosas, but anything on the menu is excellent!
