The price is cheaper than other Vietnamese restaurants but the food quality is still good. I will come back here many times to explore more dishes on the menu.

Very light broth with good quality meat toppings. The vegetarian pho is quite plain and not really worth getting. The wonton soup however is great.

Great authentic VN food (the special, hand written, daily menu is in vietnamese and chinese, in addition to the standard menu), clean facility, friendly staff. The dining area is typical asian resto, not cozy or fancy, but clean and functional. Reasonable prices.

The price of the dishes on the bill was higher than the price on the menu. The boss said that it was wrongly marked on the menu and asked me to pay more.fraud!

Favourite Vietnamese restaurant in Ottawa. I always come back for the bánh xèo (savoury pancakes) and the fried shrimp cakes. Menu on the wall has home-cooked meals!

Hands down the most underrated, and my favourite Vietnamese restaurant in Canada. The food is fresh, delicious and an amazing value and the service is always friendly and warm. Their prices and portion for the food has remained and is sooooo affordable and cheap, I honestly. You can still grab mains for around $10-12 and the portion sizes are similar to mediums at other restaurants at prices for 30-40% less.

Tried pretty much everything on their menu and this is what it's supposed to taste like, so freaking good and authentic. Love it!

Staff are really friendly and you can see how hard they are working. They deserve the best! Overall, this place is awesome. I would HIGHLY recommend trying out the food here!

First time there. Great selection of foods and the dishes are great tasting. I like the inside ambience reminds me of the little Saigon restaurants on Westminster and Bolsa in Garden Grove

Very good food and service, portion sizes are great and prices are affordable too. One of the best Vietnamese restaurants to check out in Ottawa.

Très bon restaurant authentique vietnamien (je suis d'origine vietnamienne ayant grandi au Vietnam). Sans prétention. Service rapide impeccable. Les portions sont tout à fait généreuses pour le prix! La sauce du chowmein (nouilles croustillantes) est quelque peu fade. Le pho est très bon, bouillon clair bien équilibré au goût, légèrement sucré (il y a du monde qui aiment ça d'autres moins). Le poulet grillé à la citronnelle est délicieux, explosion de goûts dans la bouche! Le milkshake à la mangue est excellent aussi.
Le restaurant était quasi plein un dimanche midi et beaucoup de clients Viet, ce qui est un très bon signe!

Great food and service for a great price. Place is clean but not fancy, which is perfect for me.

Randomly stopped by, and glad I did! Portions are pretty much the same as other nearby Vietnamese restaurants, but the prices are definitely more affordable. They offer 3 sizes for their noodle soups, with the smallest being ~$10. That’s hard to come by, especially with the quality that they offer! I find that a lot of restaurants cut corners by providing old and wilted mint and sprouts, but not this place! Honestly this might be one of the only places in Ottawa that gives you the fresh stuff. Check it out!

Yup a 5 star find. Very good prices, cheerful service and convenient to downtown Ottawa.

Everybody recommends the Green Papaya salad. I dislike papaya but loved this dish.

The grilled pork on the bun was some of the best I have had.

A new fav.

This is the smokiest (they literally burn incense but it's also the vibe), most old hat-feeling Vietnamese place that we go to consistently.

If you or your dining partner don't speak Vietnamese or Chinese you probably have never been here. But if you are cool and go anyway, you will find the staff to be *nicer and more attentive* than most places like this, and importantly, willing to explain the menu to you.

That's important because they have some rare menu options you won't see even at the manifold viet places in Ottawa. There's a menu on the wall that's not in English. Ask them about it if you want to get unique stuff. The pricing is also highly competitive.

It's obvious that they have multigenerational sets of regulars. Don't go there with your own pretensions of what the food or service should be like. Just take it in, enjoy, and feel privileged to be included.

Key menu recommendations:
- anything on the wall you probably can't read
- appetizers especially the fried rice cake
- soups with pickled ingredients or "bad parts" like pork feet

The pho was delicious but you don't get much in the bowl besides the noodles and broth.

One of the best Vietnamese restaurants in Ottawa. Fresh ingredients, consistent quality, good prices, and great service!

My favorite vietnamien restaurant in Ottawa, very friendly owner and delicious food, and the price is very reasonable.

I’m glad I visited it today and it already becomes my favourite Vietnamese restaurant in Ottawa. I had the Bun Rieu Cua and it’s really delicious. The prices are very affordable compared to other Vietnamese places. I will definitely come back to try other dishes on the menu.

This place felt very authentic, I had Bún Bò Huế and it was delicious, the server was attentive and very friendly, he even gave me very useful travel advice for my upcoming trip to vietnam. Great job!

My recent visit to Huong's Vietnamese Bistro was nothing short of spectacular. This charming eatery offers an authentic Vietnamese dining experience, complete with a diverse menu, exquisite flavors, and attentive service. The ambiance at Huong's transports you to the heart of Vietnam, with its warm lighting, traditional decor, and cozy seating arrangements. The welcoming atmosphere sets the stage for a memorable meal shared with friends or family.

I grew up eating Vietnamese food and this is my go-to place for soup noodles in Ottawa. Their pho broth is so flavorful and their special soups like bun canh cua gio heo (SP9) and bun bo hue (SP5) are great too. The owner is also very friendly and kind. Support this local family business!

My go to local place for simple, tasty and affordable noodle and rice dishes to go. Very friendly staff, clean and quiet ambiance which is great! Staff always remember my preferences and each dish is explained very well. You can tell they take pride and really appreciate their customers.
