Absolutely incredible vegan journey! Where is your Michelin star?! Some of the dishes have an exquisite umami punch-through that hits the mark hard. So spot-on!Other than that, the bar area tables should be replaced as you cannot fit your legs between the table legs due to the design of having a table leg at each corner. Very uncomfortable in the bar area. Sore thighs and back pains.

Fat Choi is an exceptional Malaysian vegan restaurant hidden inside Soos restaurant near Ossington and Queen. Entirely vegan, they have a creative east and south Asian inspired menu. I recommend the Feed Me tasting menu and letting the chef take you on a tour. Favourites include tofu and sticky rice, cauliflower and broccoli, and rice cakes. Staff were very pleasant and helpful. Parking is difficult as always on Ossington, take transit or ride share.

The share menu is super perfect for a date of any kind. The portions are proper and it will leave your taste buds happy. Super awesome for plant-based and non plant-based folks. Also, the music selection was A1.

Fat Choi is a permanent vegan pop-up inside of a Malaysian restaurant called Soos. HappyCow doesn't let me give 5 stars to Fat Choi even though it's my favorite vegan food in Toronto!
Service is incredible. They're so friendly, and they check in on you often throughout the meal.
Everything was genuinely so amazing that it's hard to pick a favorite. We got the scrumptious cakes, kari puff, shroom braise, and kapitan tofu. If I had to recommend one, it would be the shroom braise, because the noodles are perfect.
Also, I recommend the Sago Sago dessert: tapioca pudding, gula melaka, and pandan coconut milk

Highly recommend their tasting menu - and this place is all vegan and should be listed as such. I don't think there was any dish I didn't like, but the standouts were the roti canai (I've never seen a vegan version before and it made me so happy) and the bao bun filled with a vegan char siu (seitan). Eating it brought me straight back to childhood, it was incredible. Updated from previous review on 2023-08-29

Came here for a birthday dinner. The menu is inside of Soos restaurant and advance reservations are recommended. I think we had a total of 8-10 courses and they were all delicious. From the Char Siu Bao, noodles and dumplings they were superb. The ambiance and staff attentiveness were on point. Drinks were strong and smooth too. Looking forward to my next visit.
Also named and under roof off “Soos”, was bit confused when I try to find it.Foods were great, tasty, creative, able to see and feel the passion of chef, specially it’s Char Siu Bao and Spring tofu , very impressed!

Visited Fat Choi last night with some friends. There were originally supposed to be 5 of us but a 6th joined at the last minute. Because we then had 6 people, we were forced to order the "tasting menu" and the restaurant had no flexibility on this. We arrived at 6pm and were told that despite our table spending almost $600 including drinks, tax and mandatory tip, we would need to be out by 8:00pm for the next seating. The service was incredibly rushed and new dishes came out before the last ones were finished, to the point that we had food piling up on our plates. The server was incredibly rude and inflexible and made the dining experience very unpleasant. In addition to all of this, the restaurant was unbelievably loud and despite being in the back, we couldn't hear each other speak. The food itself was plentiful and tasty, but the price tag was unnecessarily high for breaded cauliflower, coleslaw, pad see ew, fried vegetables and bao. Overall, this was a terrible dining experience. We live in Europe and this was an annual reunion with our local friends which was very negatively impacted by this meal. None of our party will be returning to Fat Choi anytime soon.

Cannot recommend this restaurant enough. We did the “Feed Me” tasting menu and it was so flavorful and filling. We also tried both desserts and a few different cocktails. The cauliflower dish and fried bananas were our favorites of the night.
