With some of the best Vietnamese food in the city and a heated, covered patio to boot, Anh and Chi is one of our favourite spots to head to during chilly fall and winter days. The patio is also just as stunning as indoors, with lush plant life, a fire pit, and thoughtful furnishings adding to its appeal.

Head to this cool Mount Pleasant spot for inventive sushi and a seat on the front patio, where heaters keep you warm and a covering keeps you dry. Plus, this place goes hard on the moody, ambient lighting, making dining on the patio just as fun as eating inside here.
