Mother’s Vietnamese Kitchen

We’re a regular here, love the pho, great price and service. Lots of parking available. Fast service.

Every time I crave banh cuon banh chung or duck bamboo shoot vermicelli, I can't help but come here!

I repeatedly come back just for the Banh Cuon special, with the cha lua and cake. Best in town

The aroma of the pho broth from outside is what really pulled me in to try this place out. The decor is a little dated and the building wasn't in the best shape, but the food here was very good. The pho was seasoned nicely and had plenty of meat. Overall this place is great.

Try to specialty Vietnamese food that you don't normally get. Duck and bamboo noodle is the go to. And banh cuon is made fresh to order.

I believe their spring rolls also had taro in it which was a special treat as not many places make it this way. They also make banh cuon which requires so much work that I find not many Vietnamese places still serve it as it is a labour of love. What a great gem and I wished I lived in Hamilton so I could eat there more often

Pho is always hot and tasty. Great service with green tea served right away. One of my favourite restaurants!

Food is absolutly incredible. Some of thr best traditional Vietnamese food you'll get in the province.

Service is kind of lacking. No offer for tea or water was you wait for an order. Take out orders take a long time.

Lal worth it for the top notch food though

Don't be fooled by the location and Aesthetic of this restaurant. These places will give you legitimate Vietnamese "mom's cooking". Our favourites are 1. Rice rolls with pork meat and ham "Banh cuon cha lua" 2. Vermicelli with duck and bamboo in soup "Bun mang vit" 3. Vermicelli with fish cakes in soup "Bun Cha Ca" 4. Dry Vermicelli bowl with pork and spring roll "Bun thit nuong cha gio" 5. Rice with porkchop and fried egg "Com Tam Suon Nuong Op La Bi" Don't forget the infamous Cafe Sua Da to go with it! P.s I also should warn you the server can be cold if you don't speak Vietnamese and it is because of language barrier. Dont mind her! The food makes up for it!

Secret gem in Hamilton! Soups are clear and delicious! Mary the owner and her brother Ken are great people!

This special dish was highly recommended "Duck vermicelli noodle soup (Bun mang vit) ". We also ordered Chicken congee (Chao Ga), porkchop with rice and a duck salad. All were quite appetizing as we can actually see the steam is still evaporating on every dish.
Only a few restaurants serving food with the right temperature. And this restaurant does it very well.

The service here is very bad, the staff has an attitude when we choose our seats and doesn't seem to want to serve us

Yummy authentic viet dishes. Comfort foods. The place looks run down a bit and smells like bamboo shoots. But the food is good. I love the Banh Cuon, congee (chao) and bun ca here. Service here is quick, the girl serving is kind of quiet, not talkative, but still made great suggestions

Delicious food! We have ordered from them numerous times and the quality has never changed. Great prices as well.

The waiter lady was extremely rude and unprofessional, as soon as I came into the door asking for a seat she just pointed at the table with a mean look and walked away, no greeting or even a hi. As I sat down she did not offer to get me water, she quickly gave us the food and went into the back. When I tried to wave my hand to get her attention so I could ask for some water she ignored me and went into the back. However when there were other Vietnamese people she would greet them or speak with them. The pho was good but the rice and chicken was mediocre. I would not come back here again, just extremely unprofessional customer service.

Waiter seemed frustrated. The beef noodles were good. Since they werent wearing masks kinda felt a little unsafe. Also the smell was overpowering. Overall, the experience was pretty nice.

The Pho I ordered was delicious but the lady seems happy only with people who spoke her language.

One of the most authentic tasting Vietnamese restaurants in the city. Great service as well. I always leave with a full and happy stomach.

Wish they had a wider selection when it cane down to rice choices. Other than that, the food was decent.

Absolutely the best tendon (and beef ball) pho I have ever had! It was thick with melt-in-your-mouth beef tendon. First time here but will be a committed regular customer if food is always this good!

Everything was very good with generous portions. Can't wait to come back and try their other dishes. This will likely be my top choice vietnamese restaurant in Hamilton.

I wish you all the great food experience my friend and I enjoyed here.
