Everybody in my party of 7 loved their meal-except maybe for the kindergardener who only wanted plain noodles, but even she ended up devouring an entire shrimp skewer. The Vietnamese coffee is amazing, both cold and hot.
The spring rolls were very crispy and full. The beef was tender, and the broth was very flavourful. I like my noodles a little more al dents, but overall, very good for Calgary.
We went there one day and the food was so amazing we went back the very next day. We are new to the neighborhood and are super happy to have found such delicious food close by. Great job, Pho Phuong!
We've been ordering online and dine in here for about 4 years now. We like the pho beef and chicken satay (peanut). Couple Months ago we ordered the same thing and it was not good, for the first time it has different taste and had stomach pain I called to let them know and we still order anyway (not soup).
Today, we had lunch and we order beef vermicille it was fresh and good. After we ate the owner came out and asked hows everything etc. We said it was good. He then told us about what happened months ago. And that explains why I had issue with their soup. (They hired new person in the kitchen) Few people called and complain the food, the taste etc. So he decided to come back and work in the kitchen so he can prepare the food by himself for the costumer. Give it a try again you guys! Wishing this restaurant be known again with their yummy and tasty food. Goodluck!
This place is like a little gem hidden along Elbow drive. Do not be deceived by the look of the place because let’s admit it, it is old. I was not expecting the food to be really good. We had their deluxe pho, dinner special, spring rolls, grilled pork with rice. I would recommend it to my friends.
The person on the phone was patient, kind and helpful. It gave a good sense of the quality of service we were going to get. The food was flavourful and delicious. I highly recommend!
Place was dirty, if it’s that dirty up front then you can only imagine how the kitchen is. To top it off when they dropped off the plate with the basil and bean sprouts on it the basil was covered in mold. I saw all the great reviews and wanted to try a new spot but NEVER again!
Great service and tasty food. I had the lemongrass beef vermicelli bowl recently and it was really good. Tasted like everything was made from scratch, homemade. Solid.
I had the craving for a Vietnamese Sub and found this little place close to home. Boy was I disappointed! Where do I begin with this? It was DRY, so dry. Not only was the bun not toasted, but there was hardly any chicken in there at all! There was no mayo (sort of a must have in Banh Mi)! The pickled carrots were NOT pickled. They tasted like they came straight out of a bag and put on the sub. Iceberg Lettuce? Why was there lettuce in my sub? The owners of this place should check out Thi Thi's! That was what I was craving and got nowhere near the same value. I also ordered the Chicken Stir Fry for my Wife and that was also flavourless and DRY. The veggies in the stir-fry were obviously frozen and just reheated for 10 minutes. I literally put the whole thing in a Wok to try and make it better and added more flavours to it. Sadly it still tasted like a bagged stir fry with really dry chicken. I know times are tough for small businesses, and I hate to give this a bad review but I feel like I wasted money today.
Excellent place for Pho! The quantity of meat and noodles you get compared to other restaurants is much greater and does not skimp on the flavor of the broth. Would highly recommend going to this place for an amazing experience
What a great place! They really understand what makes a business great. We called our order in for pick up and had a miscommunication about one item. When we picked it up we stepped outside to check the contents of the bag. Found the error and went back in, apologized and asked for it to be corrected. They fixed the order refunded the difference and offered us some sodas for the confusion. We declined the sodas, but really appreciated the gesture. Also the food is really good (we come regularly) and fairly priced. Subs, soups and vermicelli are our favorites.
Ordered food from this location via skip the dishes and my salad rolls had broken dishware pieces in it. Called to tell them and they told me that couldn't be. When I told them I had it break in my mouth was when they apologized. Not going to be eating here again.
Ordered a couple Bahn Mi for dinner tonight and they had no flavour, were half empty and the meat almost seemed like it was just microwaved from the fridge, definitely was not "grilled" recently and no sauce or seasoning to speak of. Recently ordered from another local Vietnamese place and they were as good as ever so we will not be giving these guys any more business.
I went there to get Buble tea but I won't go there again and it's not in my list of favorite food restaurants. But it's a good place to eat philipino good or drink bubble tea
Was wondering why the satay seafood noodle soup was a bit pricey and it’s apparent they pay attention to their ingredients. Shrimp and squid did not have the dirt (?) smell that sometimes come with it. Quality meat for beef pho. Strong aromatics for soup, clean tasting. Would have liked a little bit more noodle for the price but the rest were great.
