Pho VietStar

The pho was amazing and so was the cherry blossom crepe desert. Also the service was really good, fast and very polite. Will definitely come again

Great family run restaurant. Often short of staff it seems but, it's so often the case these days. I have been coming here with family and friends since they opened in Aurora. We have enjoyed every single meal. It is costly, but it's hard to find a "cheap restaurant" almost anywhere post-covid. Owners are pleasant hardworking people. NRK

What a piece of ****. So they take a burnt pork and put it in a boiling water and call it pho. Omg it’s absolutely awful. Give bad name to pho in general. Do not waste your money absolutely horrible

INCREDIBLE! Daniel Gao was the best server I’ve ever had. The attention to detail, enthusiasm, and nobility was unparalleled by any experience I’ve had before. Great environment with even better food. I come here every week for the pho, funnel cake, and board games.

This place is horrible. Portions are small and the grill chicken rice was burnt. I would not come again.

Came here with family, I ordered the p1 meal.the broth they served was worse than average.overall was a hard to eat and tasted weird.

Pleasantly surprised by how good their pho was! It's a dessert shop/vietnamese restaurant, which seems like an odd combination, but I definitely recommend trying their pho. Super clean and friendly staff.

Tried their pulled pork poutine, pretty good portion and taste. A bit on the spicier side but still neat. Would come again with friends.

Edit:

Tried other menu items, very generous portions, good price and the owner is a great person. Definitely recommend.

Staff was ridiculous and uneducated I ordered something super simple and they gave me the wrong order multiple times, then they were going too charge me extra too fix the order (when they were the ones that messed it up in the first place) because they “already made the food” and then gave me my order and there was hair in it. Will not be returning.

I would give this place zero star if I could.
Sincerely, I was so disappointed!

I have tried PHỞ in Canada for almost 10 years now, and this by far has been the worst Phở ever. The broth tasted completely wrong. There was too little beef for the price. Not enough beans sprout and no basils at all. Overall, bad Phở.

We also ordered Rice with Korean grilled beef. The beef was so dry. AND the worst thing was that they served us burnt rice from the bottom of the cooker seriously, which restaurant would do that? If you want to serve your customers rice from the bottom of the cooker (which you really shouldn’t), at least put in some effort to break the rice so it doesn’t look like that. But no, they literally served us bottom-shaped burnt rice. I was speechless. I don’t even eat such rice at home. And I had to pay money to eat that. $18! Which again was totally overpriced for such poor quality food

I am not here to bring any business down. But as a Vietnamese, I am so ashamed to know that such Vietnamese foods are being served out there. I am speaking this to the OWNER (S) specifically. Please, check on your recipes/ staff. Do not serve such foods to customers. I don’t know if you are Vietnamese or not, but if you are, please take pride in your national cuisine and make sure the foods come out with some pride in them. I brought a non-Vietnamese friend today to show him the famous Vietnamese Phở, and it was a total disaster. I almost cried. I was so ashamed, and I had to reassure him many times that real Vietnamese Phở does NOT taste like that!
I don’t know if I came on a bad day, and that the foods are usually not that bad. Maybe it was just my bad luck. Anyway, it’s worth spending some time to check on the food quality. I truly hope this will change.

Thank you

Decided to try this place as our go-to Pho was closed at the time. We ordered 4 well done beef Pho.

The broth was good. That's pretty much it.

The portion was terrible. A tiny scoop of noodles like it's for a kid's meal! The very few pieces of beef were swimming in the broth and was very chewy! The bean sprouts were not fresh that they're brownish in colour. The included hoisin sauce and hot sauce were just a little squirt each. And each order is $14! Totally overpriced! Will never ever go back here.

Do yourself a favour and go to The Joy of Pho or Com Pho Asia in Newmarket. Now those have really good Pho places.

Went here with our family. Really enjoyed our dining experience. Cool combination of pho and crepes.

Great for casual get togethers and cute dates. I’ve been a couple of times with my family and they offer various board/card games along with a games room in the back for private parties.

Food is great, lots of options from pho to crepes and cheese cakes.

It’s family owned so you will taste the love in every bite, no matter what you order. I’ll definitely be back to explore more of the menu.

I hesitated because of some bad reviews but I really wanted a good vietnamese fried rice. OMG. First, 18$ for a small box. Never paid that much. Second, the rice was mushy and not good at all, like it was not fresh. Nobody in my family liked it so in the garbage it went. It is a shame to serve food like that.

Great place, delicious food, and cool concept! There's also a nice selection of board game to play while waiting for food. Lots of traditional, fusion, and unique menu items to choose from. Will come back again & also recommend.

They serve everything from Viet food to bubble tea to dessert, crepes, and beers. There are board games and private games room area as well. Clean and service is excellent! Very interesting spot. Good for family or just come to hang out at night with friends. I would definitely come here again!

Food was good, service was not. We went there Friday night. They took our order shortly after we arrived and it wasn’t that long a wait. But after that they forgot about us. We had to flag someone down for more water, take out containers and the bill. No one ever showed up with the bill, eventually I went up to the counter and paid.
