The food was fine, but the service was absolutely terrible. This was the first time I’ve ever experienced a server blaming the customer. I specifically asked for cooked bean sprouts, and she even repeated the request while taking the order, but they still came out raw. When we asked her to replace them, she became visibly annoyed. Then, they brought out the wrong noodles as well. We ordered #36, but she brought #33, and then blamed us for ordering the wrong dish. If it was our mistake, we would have realized as soon as the dish was served. It was clearly her mistake, so why blame the customer? Is this what service has come to these days?

Visiting from out of town, I decided to come here because it was close to the hotel and the kids were craving noodle soup.

Typically I check Google reviews first, but didn't this time, I didn't know what to expect.

The food turned out to be really good. We had the chicken noodle soup, beef satay noodle soup and the bun bo hue.

Portion sizes were generous and the taste was in line with the good Viet restaurants in the Toronto area.

Was weird to go to a pho restaurant without different bowl sizing so I was worried I wasn't going to be full off their 1 serving. Boy was I wrong, their Bun Bo Hue was sooooo good on a rainy day and it was extremely filling. For $14 it was really worth it, family run aswell.

What a satisfying bowl of pho! The broth was so rich with deep flavours. The meat was thick cut and tender. Beef balls was seasoned well. Overall with quality and taste, this place is a authentic gem. I had the special noodle soup 13.55. will definitely return to try other dishes. Price range 12-15.00. they do have lunch special for 14.50 I think. Comes with a vermicelli bowl, one salad roll and a pop. Ends at 2pm. Service was average. They bring your food and drinks. Then they leave you alone. No free tea here.

The best!!! Their soup broth is always consistent and very flavourful. Best time to come is after the lunch rush or dinner time. Staff are always nice and accommodating as we always request steamed veggies in any of the soups we order and they are generous in their portions. Highly recommend trying if you haven’t already.

We came here for some post bowling eats with some family and friends and it didn't disappoint. This little unassuming restaurant is located across from the Holiday Inn on MacLeod Trail. You can turn on off of Macleod or, contrary to what Google Navigation will tell you, access it off of 42nd by left turn.

The establishment itself is your mom and pop type of place, nothing fancy, but plenty of booth and table seating meant for family or groups dining. The menu is a good size, and features some unique items I've not seen at typical Pho places, including hot clay pot style dishes.

The Pho is great here however. All the bowls the family ordered were made well, and portions are quite generous, with plenty of proteins and noodles to spare. The broth was also excellent. We also tried the clay pot ribs and they were melty delicious.

Service was amazing, the owners were super nice and accommodating, you can tell they really care about what they serve. Facilities were clean and well stocked and there was plenty of parking available.

Don't pass this place up if you have a hankering for some great noodles!
