Always great eating in or taking out food from this restaurant. Staff are efficient and nice. Food portions are generous, especially with the take out grilled beef and rice orders and the prices are very reasonable. My go to Viet restaurant! Highly recommend.

I lost count how many times I’ve come here. Used to be a huge advocate and praised them for their portion sizes and price point. Started noticing the quality of the food becoming very inconsistent this year and people around me notice it too. Not the type to send dishes back but my order of Bun Rieu tasted like the ingredients went bad or they squeezed a whole lemon in it. It was so sour. They took the dish back and 10 minutes later they didn’t come back with a new bowl but the menu and says “This is how we make our Bun Rieu you can order something else”. Then storms off as I try to tell them I’ve had it dozens of times and it’s one of my favourite things to get here. Long story short I ordered something else and it took another 20 minutes for some reason even though it wasn’t busy, over heard some trash talking in Vietnamese and probably though we didn’t understand since we were speaking in Chinese, still left a tip but we probably won’t be back. Better places have popped up near by and will only come back as a back up if the other ones are closed because I love pho.

The child chose this Vietnamese noodle restaurant with a long queue-[I Love Pho]/Let the whole family enjoy it. Looking around / 90% are Asians. After eating - it really meets the taste of Taiwanese.

Toronto is at a higher latitude than Buffalo / The leaves on the roadside are already turning yellow - ready for fall. A yellowish-green fallen leaf/three-lobed maple leaf on the ground - it's [Canada] right.

Waiting in line for a long time at the noodle restaurant/sneaking around for a walk. The shape of the sun on the ground / Ditch cover with 16 rays of light / The awning is filled with broken leaves that cannot be swept away / Make the shape of the sun more prominent. Think about it/It's really boring-even the gutter cover took a photo as a souvenir.

After enjoying Vietnamese noodles / to [Toronto Pearson International Airport Toronto International Airport] / continue the unfinished journey. Looking up at the sky / Toronto at night - the sky is still so blue!

I was there today. No greeting from the server or anyone else. The server just through the menu on the table for us. Said nothing. Food was acceptable. But the attitude of the server made me so upset. I paid for the meal and also tip, not getting it for free, shouldn't be treated that way. Never want to come back. You will lose your customer if you don't have any improvement on your customer service.

I found the lettuce was not wash properly. It still filled with a lot of dirt. I told the waiter the problem with my food and he replied to me that it was the fault of the kitchen without giving an apology and he would bring it inside, then washed it for me. This is the worst experience for me. The food was not bad but I’m not happy about the service.

Very normal taste of viet noodle. However kind of over price. Also very noise in the shop. Especially they are using the blender.

Best Viet restaurant I have ever been to. Best food, great diversity, order size is huge, great value, minimal wait time for orders, staff is friendly and the place is bright, clean and always hopping.
When you feel like hot fresh soups, grilled meat, Noodles, Spring rolls, Cantonese chow mein or Pho, there is no better place to go.

Terrible packing I order food take out from here numerous times and everytimes the sauce spilled out everywhere messy in my car and over all the packages. Shouldn't pile up on each others containers especially the tall one for soup. Should try to pack carefully use.common sense.
I'm scares of buying food herelnow

Dude, a legit vietnamese restaurant that plays bad bunny? Best of both worlds! We ordered banh hoi, pho, and com ga xao xa ot!

Love all the dishes here, especially Spicy Beef Noodles Bun Bo Hue for its flavorful broth, toppings and side vegetables & herbs. The services are quick even in peak time. Would definitely come back to try different dishes.

My go to place for pho. However, now they increase the price so much and I visited a restaurant for pick up orders, they gave me their paper menu which wasn't updated. Just head up if you have an old menu, a large pho is $15 now. All menu increases by $2~$3

Great place, fresh ingredients, and quick and friendly service. The food is really good and reflected by the fact that the dining room is usually 80 percent full.
09 August 2022 20:04
This place used to be good, quality definitely dipped since the change in owners. Broth taste and quantity in Pho and Bun Bo Hue aren’t the same as they used to be. Also found 2 fly’s and piece of small plastic in my pho. Extremely disappointed.
07 August 2022 18:57
WOW this pho place is amazingly good lol. Not even exaggerating. I drive all the way from Scarborough just to eat their pho. It's a must try!
24 July 2022 20:57
So delicious! We had the 7 different beef dishes and they were all spectacular. It was busy, but the service was still great! Will definitely be coming back.
16 July 2022 13:00
Hands down the best Vietnamese restaurant that I have ever been to. Lots of Vietnamese people come here. All I hear is Vietnamese being spoken. That's how you know it's good. Don't listen to the service being bad or the covid stuff. The service is fine and covid is over.
08 July 2022 14:32
Good prices and very flavorful broths, very generous on toppings. I love the fried squid cake and the shrimp dipping sauce.

Pho review: The Broth, while not clear, tastes good. That's where the good ends. Ordered a large 205, rare beef and tendon pho. The beef was either too thick and still raw in the soup, or too thin and overdone. The tendon was abysmal. Slimy and way past its due date, it smelled like the cows on a farm or zoo, and tasted the way it smelled. Absolutely disgusting. I paid near to 14 dollars for a rare beef and tendon pho, only for the TENDON to be spoiled. They offered to replace the tendon, but after seeing both large pieces of tendon spoiled, I couldn't eat anymore. Disappointing, and I hope it was a one off. 1/5.

Also, the tea was frigid, not even lukewarm. I get that it's summer, but to get cold tea in a teapot is odd.

As a side note, it feels like the floor is doused in soap, literally a slip and slide in and out of the restaurant

They renovated the restaurant during Covid, it looks nicer, brighter and spacious now. I came here for Saturday lunch, business was busy with dine-in and take out. I was getting seated quick and served with cold tea (used to be hot Chinese tea, I guess it was hot day so they served cold Chinese tea). Ordered chicken/pork chop rice with sunny egg, I like how they have marinated vege served at side, it makes the entire serving more appetitive! Price was reasonable, based on the serving portion. Will come back again.

Tasty food, as a Vietnamese this place made me feel like I was in my hometown.the server, Huy, was kind and helpful with my requests, highly recommend.

We've been coming here for a while now and have always enjoyed our meal. One thing to keep in mind is that the menu can be overwhelming but the staff will explain things if you ask.

Another reason why we go back time and time again is because my wife doesn't eat beef so she's happy that she can get her pho with chicken broth instead. It's often busy so don't expect staff to be always available when you are.

Good sized portions, tasty food, and decent prices. What's not to like?

Tasty pho but very poor service and poor hygiene.
This is the place why I don’t think tipping is needed as no one greets you when you walked in, the waiters just ignore you until you stood at the door for 2 minutes. They don’t check up on you and see if your food is ok, and they will miss your orders.
There were so many times where the table was still oily after they “cleaned” it. The floor is disgusting with previous customer’s food crumbs/chunks. I saw them use the same towel to clean all the tables without using Lysol or any disinfectants and this is really scary especially when the pandemic is still here.
A few days ago I was there and the waiter brought us to a table with a dirty table and floor, and there were no spoons in the utensil tray - we had to ask for one for the soup. The waiter also missed our order and did not give us a pop that we ordered. We confronted that when we were paying and the waiter said “you wanna grab one from the fridge now? ”. Absurdly bad service!
If you are just going there for the food - this place is a cheap alternative. But don’t expect anything for the service there. I’ve never been to any restaurants with a service/hygiene that is worse than them.

I was here bc I craved some broken rice and my fav place closed temporarily.

I ordered broken rice with grilled chicken and shrimp. It was $14.75. Broken rice with grilled pork, fried egg and steamed egg is $11. I'm paying almost $5 for the shrimp.

I got 1 shrimp. ONE FREAKING SHRIMP. Not only that, the shrimp was so overcooked, it turned into damn charcoal sand. Who the heck cook shrimp like that? Just ruined my night.

Here ya go, 1 star for the 1 shrimp.

The food here is good, and they give a lot. The service isn’t bad, and the restaurant looks pretty nice. Unfortunately, not much people were wearing masks, there was no social distancing, and they didn’t even ask us for vaccination proof.
27 October 2021 1:29
Service leaves a lot to be desired. We waited for nearly 15 minutes before getting water, tea and cutlery similar to the other tables. Food was decent.
04 October 2021 15:02
This restaurant's food isn't that great as other people said. But the servers are super friendly and helpful. I will come back not for food, but for the servers' hardworks.
24 September 2021 1:20
Clean restaurant, and the food was absolutely delicious! Best Pho I’ve tried! Service was great too but please get high chairs because it was hard for my baby to eat sitting in a stroller.
04 September 2021 11:21
Just left this place. We had bun rieu and bun bo hue. Both were extremely oily, the tofu was burnt and bun rieu was ridiculously salty! This place is way too loud! Staff just yelling back and forth, things thrown around. Not a pleasant experience at all! My bun rieu was left untouched. Told the cashier about the salty inedible food and she just shrugged it off. Never again!

I love pho is not what it use to be. I remember loving this place couple of years before. Recently ordered takeout: a vermicelli and a stirfry noodles. The vermicelli says meatball and spring roll, but what I got was 3 tiny pieces of canned lunch meat, and spring roll was not crispy at all. The flavour of the noodles was decent. The noodle stirfry was tad expensive, and was drenched in oil. There were quite a lot of beef, but hard to eat with that much oil. The waitress was prompt and friendly, the only plus.

Best pho restaurant in all of Mississauga. Big portions and a great taste. I usually add hot sauce and hoisin sauce in the broth but it was so flavourful that I didn’t need to. 10/10 would def come back
03 August 2021 5:48
I love their beef pho noodle, big portions, great price! Their spring rolls are amazing and the sauce that comes with it pairs it all well!
22 February 2021 10:25
I ordered the plain noodle soup and the beef short ribs with broken rice from Ubereats. Flavor and taste was there. The price is great for the value and quantity of food. I would definitely order again.
28 January 2021 17:23
Absolute horrible! Meat is very dry and old, this place needs to go through federal inspections to make sure these people aren’t serving us month old food! Please just taste the broth and tell me this is false!

Ordered I Love Pho special pho and grill chicken spring roll vermicelli through Uber Eats. Order was quick and portion sizes were good. The vermicelli was good. Chicken was juicy and grilled nicely. Pho was packaged neatly. I boiled all the ingredients along with the broth in a pot since the soup was lukewarm so I don't think it can cook the bloody raw meat. The msg flavor in the broth was a bit too overpowering even after diluting with water. Also there was only one beef ball, which was a bit disappointing.

If I have to order again, I would definitely go for the vermicelli and just skip the pho.

First pho place that charged me $2 extra for fish sauce and $2 extra for peanut sauce when I asked for additional sause for my co worker. Pho soup itself costs significantly more here then other places. Food itself was decent. Soup was over salted but fresh rolls and spring rolls where great.
