Every time I come to this location, somethings wrong whether it be the pop machine broken, ovens not working.. and I get it these things happen but the service is just not good enough to look past those things.
The midnapore Subway is WAYYYYYYY better and i recommend trying that location over this one any day of the week

Went for lunch sunday April 21, 2024 and had a turkey sub with spinach. I got sick pretty quickly and after a week of agony and illness, it's been confirmed that I do have salmonella food poisoning. I had not eaten anything else that day, before or after that sub. Please do better with food handling. I was very very ill for about a week and am still recovering.
My new favourite Vietnamese restaraunt in Calgary. Loved the 41 and spring rolls are AMAZING!! Great music too :)

** (response to owner) Thank you for your reply. The only verification I require comes from your staff; Who were quite clear that they do not receive tips. Perhaps you should re-visit your tip distribution policy internally. **

Unacceptable! It has been brought to my attention that The ownership group of this franchise does not share checkout tips with its employees. This by all accords is an abysmal business practice. The ownership group should be able to elicit profit from their operations without dipping into the blood, sweat, tears and efforts of their employees. Rest assured I will never support this location again with my business. Smarten up! Things are hard enough as it is without skimming from your employees; who by my estimation are foreign workers who have very little recourse. The tips you collect at checkout are for your employees, not for your ownership group bank account. Whoever owns this location, Hang your head in shame!

I recently moved into the neighbourhood and we decided to visit this location on two separate occasions. That said, we ordered cold cut and turkey bacon which is a usual buy, and both times we ordered on the traditional white bread, and the bread seemed like it had been sitting there more than a few days. The bread was not fresh at all and we had gone around lunch time! We promised to never visit this location because we hate stale bread. So please do better and serve customers fresh bread and not stale bread to save a few bucks.
I ordered on Uber eats and found the Portion to be super small. It was good but for the price there is bigger portions available. There was little beef and little veggies as well.
Honestly I love it here. I always get the 44 (beef pho) and usually the pork spring rolls (19). It’s my go to pho place. Staff is super nice, and they’re pretty quick.
Amazing food! Big portions, taste and presentation. The restaurant is cozy and clean. Service is friendly. I am looking g forward to coming g back.
My go to place for pho on 17th Ave. Always get their sate peanut pho as it revives the soul.
Staff are always friendly and I enjoy the vibe of the place as they have nice art along the walls.
Ordered the 5 spice seafood and received Tufo. Did not follow how my food was and she had to ask if I also ordered spring rolls 😡. Listening skills are key! They did adjust it and did not charge but that was not the point!
Used to order from here all the time, food quality and service has depleted terribly. Asked for “extra veggies” in our soups (extra $8) and this was what we got.

**Issue was resolved, as a full refund was provided. Thank you.
This is the 7th time I have driven 30 minutes to come get one of my favorite subs. 11:10 am on a Friday. You would think they would have the courtesy to update there website and say it's closed. But nope they don't consider there customer's. And yes people will say just call them. Even when they are open I have a hard time getting through on the phone line. JUST UPDATE YOUR WEBSITE IF YOUR NOT GOING TO BE OPEN. Unfortunately as much as I do like there subs they are loosing my business as of today. I had enough of this ungrateful business.
Extremely Disappointing Experience!

I had an incredibly disappointing experience with Thi Thi Vietnamese Submarine. Today, we placed an order for 6 subs for takeout around 11:30 AM. We arrived to pick up our order at 4 PM, well within the store's operating hours (they close at 5 PM). However, to our shock, we were informed that our order had been sold because they assumed we weren't going to pick it up.

The lack of communication and courtesy was astonishing. A simple phone call to confirm our pickup would have saved us the trouble of driving to the store. Instead, we were met with a complete lack of professionalism. When we entered the store, a male employee (possibly the owner's son) was cleaning and displayed a dismissive attitude, making it clear he didn't want to talk to us and gestured for us to leave.

The mother, who was somewhat nicer, informed us that our sub had been sold because we were allegedly late. This is despite us arriving an hour before their closing time. Their rudeness and the blatant disregard for customer service left a sour taste in our mouths.

While I cannot comment on the quality of their subs, I can say with certainty that I won't be returning to Thi Thi Vietnamese Submarine. The people running this establishment seem to think they are above common courtesy and believe customers have no other options. I can assure them that we can find better service elsewhere. Good luck to those who continue to line up for subs here.

I had a pleasant experience eating on this restaurant. The service is topnotch, clean and organized. The steak salad I ordered was prepared above and beyond. I highly recommend this restaurant. It is a few meters walk from Somerset-Bridlewood Station. Five stars for me.
It was definitely worth the wait! There are long lines, on any day. I can't even suggest a good time to go.

I was told to come at 10.30 when the store opens and as you can see it's crowded and mind you there are people behind me, as well.

YOU CAN PAY BY CARD, I carried cash due to some reviews but dw you can pay online. I had the Beef Sate and it was sooo YUM.

I can confirm this sub is the best viet sub in Calgary.

I love to go in this location, the ambiance is nice and clean, food is good and excellent customer service. I always order a platters for birthday and picnics. Highly recommended.
An institution in Calgary - been coming here for Vietnamese subs since I was in high school in the 2000s. The quality hasn’t changed at all after all this time, which is a very good thing. It’s a hole in the wall and is takeout only, but you’ll be hard pressed to find a better banh mi in Calgary, especially at such a great price. Everything is fresh and the highlight is the sate beef. Family owned and operated, they recognize and greet all their loyal customers - this a true local business. Selfishly, I hope they continue to run the shop for many more years to come. A must visit if you’re looking for a tasty Vietnamese sub.
Was lucky enough that there was no line, the man beside me(who appears to be a regular) told me it normally takes 15 mins on waiting.
The owner is friendly and recommended the beef for first-time biters. But it’s spicy and I was not in the mood and thus chose sate chicken as the start. I followed the owner’s advice and ate it right away.
The portion is big! Bread is still warm and crispy 😋 Chicken is juicy and the veggies are fresh. They put slice cheese in it before toasting the bread, and it worked perfectly with the chicken!
The location is good, it’s the best lunch for a picnic!

I have been ordering take out from Golden Bell for a few years now (preferably the 17 ave location as they tend to give a bigger portion than the Bridgeland location) and have always been pleased with their vermicelli boxes.

I usually get the super bowl vermicelli (74B) or the char-broiled pork, shredded pork, pork meatball, and spring roll vermicelli (64). There is a nice variety and amount of meats, which are tenderly cooked and always arrive still hot. The sauce that the super bowl meats are cooked in add a nice sweet (and perhaps mildly charred) flavor to the vermicelli so you do not just eat it with the fish sauce that it comes with. Spring rolls are crispy and have a good amount of pork/vermicelli/carrot. I definitely finish these bowls feeling quite full and for the price, is quite worth it!

A reliable place that I will keep coming back for my vermicelli bowls!
I have come to Thi Thi from time to time over the years and their sandwiches are been tasty. The bread is soft & chewy on the inside while crunchy on the outside. On this occasion, we got the assorted cold cut, sate chicken, and super chicken & beef.

The meats are marinated well and quite tender, especially the beef. The spreads (including the pate) have a nice flavor which compliments the sandwiches.

The biggest complaint is that the amount of fillings in the sandwich are fairly scant. The layer of meat is as thin as can be and does not cover the entire bread surface on the inside. The assorted cold cut has maybe 2 kinds of cuts. This makes the bread to everything else ratio very high, especially compared to other places. Their sandwiches are also more expensive so overall, they do not feel as worth it.

Not a bad place to get a quick bite if in the area but would not be making this a regular stop.
The very best yet affordable Vietnamese sub in Calgary. It’s a small place and a family business. Very nice owners. You won’t be disappointed. Prepare to be in the line for a while if you go during rush hour !
This is Calgary’s number one Vietnamese sub sandwich there is many imitators and lots of other places but this is the number one for flavour and quality! they have been here 30+ years delivering the number one sub sandwich to the community and I keep coming back and introducing new people to this place every! Every single sandwich is built with love and care and quality and flavour it’s so hard to match this beautiful offering from this tight family of food lovers

Good friendly service. Pricing is alright. Went up a bit. Mobile app is decent, good for coupons and bonus points.
